Well I think a clue might be that she is Saudi born. I ran across an article, Women in Islam, she's one, a nice soothing face of Islam for the dhimmis, I would guess she has no money problems.

"As we said earlier, the American government's approach toward Islam began in the 1990s and reached its high point during the Clinton administration. Clinton was the first to commend Islam and its moral teachings in his speeches, and the first to issue invitations to the White House on Islamic holidays. Under Clinton, for the first time invitations were arranged at the administration's top level for Muslims to attend an iftar meal. Subsequently, this became a tradition. When Clinton spoke about Islamic morality, one of the topics that he dwelt upon was the compatibility of Islamic moral values with those of the West. Clinton believed that "Devotion to family and to society, to faith and good works-are in harmony with the best of Western ideals."8 In another speech he said;
That is why we welcome Islam in America. It enriches our country with Islam's teachings of self-discipline, compassion, and commitment to family. 9
And on another occasion, he said that Islam was highly regarded by America:
America is made stronger by the core values of Islam-commitment to family, commitment to family, compassion for the disadvantaged, and respect for difference. 10
Hillary Clinton, who began the tradition of inviting Muslims to the White House, once stated during one of these gatherings that she admired the following things about Islam:
Universal values - love of family and community, mutual respect, education, and the deepest yearning of all - to live in peace - values that can strengthen us as a people and strengthen the United States as a nation. 11"
"Hillary Clinton first invited Muslims to the White House for the Ramadan Eid in 1996, and on every subsequent occasion gave significant messages to those in attendance. Among those who attempted to explain what Ramadan means for Muslims was Huma Abedin. Mrs. Clinton said that she personally learned a lot from this woman, and frequently mentioned the special importance she placed in establishing dialogue with Muslims."
