The Tennis Dress Fatwa |
http://www.eni.ch/articles/display.shtml?05-0683
New Delhi (ENI). Christian women activists have joined some Muslim
leaders in lambasting a religious edict by a Muslim cleric demanding
that Sania Mirza - India's teenage tennis sensation - who reached the
fourth round of the US Open last week wear "Islamic dress".
The 18-year old Muslim player made international headlines when she
became the first Indian woman to reach the US Open's fourth round before
going down to top-seeded Maria Sharapova of Russia.
"The dress she wears on the tennis courts not only doesn't cover large
parts of her body, but it leaves nothing to the imagination," Haseeb-ul-
hasan Siddiqui, a senior cleric of the Sunni Ulema Board said in issuing
a fatwa last week. He accused the teenager of "indecent dressing" at
tennis courts and in advertisements, and said that "Islam does not
permit a woman to wear skirts, shorts and sleeveless tops"...

I haven't read the original article, but let's hope the girl doesn't end up
with a bullet in her head as the result of an "honor killing".
Shoot, I read about where some Pakistani man dreamt that his wife was
cheating on him and consequently murdered her when he woke up. He got off!
No jail time, nothing!

So he was fully conscious when he killed her? I remember a case in
North America when a guy allegedly murdered his wife in his sleep and
was not convicted. That was fairly controversial. How could the
Pakisani courts possibly justify a decision like that? Let me
guess...muslim courts?
