Saudi cleric urges Muslim women to cover up all but one eye !
« on: October 04, 2008, 07:26:20 PM »

Saudi cleric Sheikh Mohammed al-Habadan has declared that a Muslim veil, or hijab, that covers all but the eyes encourages women to use eye make-up to look seductive, the BBC reported Friday.

Al-Habadan has called on Saudi women to wear a full veil, or niqab, which covers the entire face, including one eye.

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, the BBC reported.

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 Saudi cleric must be planning that all the Arab women shall be able to donate their second covered and useless eye to the one eyed Mullah Omer of Taliban affectionately called as the Kana Dhajjal.

There are thunders and sparks in the skies, because Faraday invented the electricity.
