Though the customary burkas worn by some women cover all of the body except for the eyes, some imams have decried the garment for showing too much!
They have ruled that in order to prevent "immodesty" and winking, women will have to wear new burkas that cover all but one eye.
"This way, if they wink, it will look like a blink," the Imams have declared.
"This way, if they wink, it will look like a blink," the Imams have declared.
"A Muslim cleric in Saudi Arabia has called on women to wear a full veil, or niqab, that reveals only one eye.
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.
The niqab is more common in Saudi Arabia and the Gulf, but women in much of the Muslim Middle East wear a headscarf which covers only their hair.
Sheikh Habadan, an ultra-conservative cleric who is said to have wide influence among religious Saudis, was answering questions on the Muslim satellite channel al-Majd. "

The two-eyed look is just too seductive for some muslims
Miss gabu gaaroon! you yourself are the result of gasim ibrahim's 2-inch one-eyed monster. You can't hide my comments, Samaa! Post as many new posts as you can so that people can't see the comments, but I'll be back everytime. Stupid woman.
ReplyDeleteIt utterly boggles the mind!
ReplyDeletesimon,
ReplyDeleteI know 2 Maldivian women who wear the one-hole buruga. There must be more..
Why dont you start talking about nuns who wear the veil.
ReplyDeleteSama Qasim and your friends who are against Islam. Beware when you are in male'. our eyes are on you from now on. you are warned.
Anonymous,
ReplyDeleteOnce more time - this blog has nothing to do with Sama Qasim.
allahu akbar
ReplyDeletethose uncovered will burn in hellfire
Otherwise known in other parts of the world as 'glory hole'
ReplyDeleteIslam sucks.
ReplyDeleteLookit the females in their black hefty bags! If they don't wear 'em, the Islamic males will throw acid on 'em!
Not like a nun, at all. No one throws acid on nuns, who worship the Son of God, Jesus.
Only Mohammedan males throw acid on ALL females who don't wear a black tent with eyeholes. Barbarians. Islamic Barbarians. Go fuck yourselves, Islamic Barbarians. GET OUT OF THE WEST, ISLAMIC BARBARIANS. AND TAKE YOUR PAGAN MOON god WITH YOU!
So sad to see such opinions from clerics. As a muslim, pictures like this are hard to look at. Comments and pictures that you have posted do not reflect the opinions of most Muslims. I hope that you know or will meet some Muslims that live a life of careful moderation--one of the most difficult challenges of Islam. To have women showing only one eye or wearing the two tiny slits is an example of those who have failed in the challenge to live a life of moderation.
ReplyDeleteWhy is it "one of the most difficult challenges of Islam" to live a life of careful moderation? Why the extremism?
ReplyDeleteWhy don't these "men" place the restrictions on themselves and not others. It seems so clear they are the ones with the sinful minds.
Maybe the acid should really go somewhere more "productive" shall we say!
All this shit is said in ur Quran?? Or the imams are just making it up like what muhammad did earlier???
ReplyDeletefuck allah
ReplyDeleteMaasaa Alloahu
