Some Facebook users in the Muslim country slammed the 21-year-old for her attire, saying they could see the shape or her “aurat” (genitalia) in her leotard. But the double gold medallist fired back on Twitter: “Empty cans make the most noise.” Malaysia’s Youth and Sports Minister Khairy Jamaluddin tweeted: “In gymnastics Farah wowed the judges and brought home gold. In her deeds only the Almighty judges her. Not you. Leave our athletes alone.”
