An anonymous reader gave me this link to check when she commented on my Mickey Mouse Must Die post!
The article goes....
"Sheikh Muhammad al-Habadan said showing both eyes encouraged women to use eye make-up to look seductive.
The question of how much of her face a woman should cover is a controversial topic in many Muslim societies."
This is insane... now I cant think which is more bizzare! The Mickey Mouse fatwa or the one-eye veil fatwa! What do you think?

ReplyDeletewomen shouldn't show any part of their bodies.. It's a sin if they could see where they're going!!!!! ;p
ReplyDeleteThen there should be a fatwa for men as well.. to cover one eye not to see women probably!
