    Are these Saudi mullas really trying to help the Saudi nation or are these mullas just really frustrated and want to add colour to their dull un-social lives?

    Seriously? A woman needs to breast-feed a guy just so he can socialize with her? Or else mixed-gatherings are haraam? What is this sorry excuse for a country (KSA) has come down to?

    If west Passes some law it is always welcomed but if a muslim scholar issues a fatwa than every one would have the right to criticise it in many illogical ways...

    The Fatwa is in no aspect against the rulings of Islam...
    If some one would like to adopt it he is free if not than he will not be termed as Baghi...

    This is a way if some one really needed can adopt it..
    This situation is already present among muslims when non-relative having shared the milk becomes MAHRAM for a particular family.....

    Full reference of the fatwa is needed to comment on.
    Fatwa is always giving over certain bases.Unless and untill those bases and complete text of any fatwa is not known commenting over is not fruitful here.......

  10. FAITH

    Man can not settle the high affairs of the universe. As we are dealing with big signs external to ourselves, some of which are beyond our experiences for them we require Faith.

    Unity is the fundamental cause in the evolution of ordered world and the law of gravity binds all mass together in Universe.

    Non Believer’s Faith is based on observation followed by imagination. This requires new FAITH on every discovery of TRUTH which negates their previous FAITH. Globally many civilization’s of powerful rulers following a faith against the purpose and will of the creator has been disappeared without leaving any sign except ruins on the stage of the world in the march of centuries in world history.

    Believer’s Faith “In God we Trust” is based on true information revealed by GOD time to time through his Messengers/Teachers and Book (Psalm, Torah, Bible and Quran). Manifestation of every truth provides a new strength to the faith. Civilization based on true information witnessed by time and life can not be ruined. Evil can only corrupt or confuse the values of good, right and TRUTH. Which is warned in the revealed books and teachers always play a role of TIME WARNER.

    To repent, amend and correct to restore the true values conforming to the universal Plan, design and order of GOD, is always rewarded by world Leadership to the BELIEVERS. If they do not play their role, then correctness by Nature will let the evil gather momentum and rush with fury to WAR ON BELIEVERS. After great loss, time will unite believers to play a role on the world stage again.

    Believer’s faith confirms that universe is created in six days. Universe is based on circle and its construction is on six equal degrees from Radius. Laws are interlocked with one another Hydrostatics, Dynamics, Gravity, Meteorology, Embryology and many other sciences are involved in this phenomenon. The more we know the more we realize how little we know.

    The Constitution of matter is pair of opposites. The Atom itself consists of a positively charged nucleus/proton surrounded by negatively charged electrons. Contrast in nature and pair in creatures is universal law of time and life. A deputed ratio of three natural forces Air, Water and Heat work together as a soul in the body. Human society requires a balance of Good, Right and Truth in the civilization in complete consonance with Universal design and order. The Discipline in Faith of Unity brings armoury of Science and knowledge into the services of human being to advance the purpose and will of the Universal Authority.

    @ Sufi,

    What's there to reference on? Shaikh Abdul Karim Al Khudhair wants all types of sports to be banned for females in schools and colleges. Is this, in any reference, a logical fatwa? Your comments are appreciated.

    @ Psycho,

    You quite religiously spam all cricketing related threads by comments like 'cricket' is haraam, its the work of devil etc. I'm not using any 'guess-work' here. I have presented a latest fatwa here where a Saudi molvi wants to ban sports for females. Are you calling him a 'black sheep'? If so, why? Wouldn't you want Cricket banned from Pakistan too for all sexes ? :)

    Sasherwani >> the fatwa is logical for the people of Kingdom of Saudia. Do some background research into it in Riyadh and Jeddah you might understand why this fatwa was given. The issue may not be understood by you as you dont consider intermingling of sexes to anything bad, for them its a different perspective.

    Psycho >> if you dont know about the bull then stop speaking about the crap of the bull. Its a whole better if you keep your trap shut regarding this matter for you have no idea who you are talking about.

    """""""""""""""the fatwa is logical for the people of Kingdom of Saudia."""""""""""""""""""""

    I am not expecting u such a remark, Islam doesn't belong to Riyad and Jiddah.

    and muslim's holly places are

    Makkah and Madina not Riyadh and Jiddah

    and do u know what really is fatwa is

    by breaking All the Laws of Islam

    He is Zionist,

    Now read it and conclude, how shameful it is

    """""""""""""''Half of Saudi Arabia is trying slowly, but desperately, to grow up and join the rest of the modern world, while the other half wants to remain firmly stuck in the dark ages. Most of the clerics, with the exception of a few, belong to the latter half. Shaikh Abdul Mohsin Al Abaican is one of those clerics. He happens to be a consultant to the Saudi King’s court, and he just issued one of those laughable fatwas that Saudi Arabia and other religiously conservative countries are so good at producing. It has to do with the Kingdom’s mandate that men and women who are unrelated are not allowed to mingle. So this ’scholar’ has devised a plan to circumvent that religious law by declaring

    ... that women could give their milk to men to establish a degree of maternal relations and get around a strict religious ban on mixing between unrelated men and women.

    [snip]

    a man who often entered a house and came in contact with the womenfolk there should be made symbolically related to the women by drinking milk from one of the women.

    Of course, there should be no actual physical contact with the woman.

    Under the fatwa, the act would preclude any sexual relations between the man and the donor woman and her relatives.

    However, Al Abaican said that the donor woman should not breastfeed the man directly.

    “The man should take the milk, but not directly from the breast of the woman,” Al Abaican said. “He should drink it and then becomes a relative of the family, a fact that allows him to come in contact with the women without breaking Islam’s rules about mixing,” he said, quoted by Kuwaiti and Saudi media on Saturday.

    So, how is this supposed to work- the woman uses a breast pump and then shares her milk with him? And what about women who aren’t lactating? The whole idea is just bizarre, creepy. Wouldn’t it just be simpler, and a lot more palatable to just change those non-mingling laws? I guess some prefer the whole sharing a breast with an adult male which I find obscene.

    And he’s not the first to issue that kind of religious decree. I remember back in 2007 an Egyptian cleric came out with a similar type of fatwa:

    Exactly three years ago, on May 22, 2007, an Egyptian scholar was disciplined by Al Azhar University, one of Islam’s most prestigious institutions, after he issued a fatwa calling upon women to breastfeed their male colleagues.

    Dr Izzat Attiyah said that his fatwa offered a way around mixing of the sexes in the work place since breast-feeding established a maternal relation even if the beneficiary was not the woman’s biological son or daughter.

    Attiyah’s fatwa was not received well by other scholars, some claiming it defamed Islam, so he wound up retracting it. The same thing will probably happen in this case as well, as it has already caused an uproar.

    Al Abaican’s fatwa was immediately rejected by bloggers as “a decision that is totally unrelated to reality at a time when people are thinking about bold and new space discoveries.”

    Many wrote that there was no reason for the fatwa to be issued and that scholars should focus instead on “much more significant issues.”

    I’m not really sure some of these clerics actually think these things out before they open their mouths, or are too ignorant to realize what they are saying is shear stupidity. A symbolic sharing of the milk means nothing in the real world, they are still not related. Just change the darn laws and be done with it. Telling a woman to breastfeed a man so she can ‘mingle’ is just disgusting.

  19. No nation has monopoly of islam
    ISLAM IS A COMPLETE WAY OF LIFE
    MOST IMPORTANT IS, ECONOMIC MODEL, BASED ON ZERO RATE INTEREST ECONOMY AND GOD FEARING SOCIETY

    PREPARATION AND IMPLEMENTATION OF ECONOMIC MODEL

    The economic model suitable for the global power ascendant in the I.T. Culture needs to entail the codes 0, 1, 2, 5 & 7 and make sure that all entities must exist above one, with those below one being de-registered and disallowed to continue their operations, thereby transforming, in a reasonable period of time, all investments from loans to partnerships.

    In the case of the really needy citizens, a system of loans will be introduced with the guiding principle of “payable when able”. The present economic system based on the principle of supply and demand will, thus, be transformed into one built on commodity reserves (stores for consumption) and the society will be reorganised for the promotion of compulsory savings. Dependence on past saving is much better than mortgaging the future.

    As the capitalist, acting as promoter/administrator, invests a minimal/nominal amount of his own in the business (obtaining major funding at concessional interest rates) but is entitled to retain full profit and be liable, in the case of loss, only to the extent of his share holding, the underlying system is inherently oppressive and unjust. It is, therefore, time to introduce a new ECONOMIC MODEL for replacing the secular codes of capitalism which, due to its irrational structure, stands grounded since the very beginning of the 21st century.

    The banks secure deposits from the general public against promise to pay interest at fixed rates without guaranteeing the face value of the pertinent currency prevailing in the international market at the time the money was deposited. In case, therefore, of devaluation of currency, the depositors lose the net worth of their deposits to the extent of devaluation. As happened with the US $, while 87 cents of a $ were equal to one Euro in 2001, $ 1.4925 is equal to one Euro today. Practically, thus the $ has lost 58.29% of original worth. All this is a result of credit based economy and loan based investment.

    As far as the war on terror is concerned, its real cost has been passed on to the countries with US Dollar - based reserves or currencies but, interestingly, the currencies of most European NATO members were, in the year 2000, delinked from the Dollar by floating the Euro as a common EU currency.

    The economic model suitable for the global power ascendant in the I.T. Culture needs to entail the codes 0, 1, 2, 5 & 7 and make sure that all entities must exist above one, with those below one being de-registered and disallowed to continue their operations, thereby transforming, in a reasonable period of time, all investments from loans to partnerships.

    I read about this story some time ago. The cleric who originally issued the breastfeeding fatwa was subsequently expelled from the Al Azhar University.

    It just goes to show you that the mullahs have essentially painted themselves into a corner. Since previous fatwas on the interaction of the sexes are now showing themselves to be irrelevant and completely impracticable and without consideration for current times, the mullahs need to find some alternative.

    Instead of admitting that previous islamic jurisprudence requires review and updating, they instead add another layer of complexity (stupidity) to the whole issue.

    That would be the jewish theology/gene working its way in the thinking/body of mullah.

  22. little knowledge, talking too much,blaming mulla is not a way to success

    Islam requires complete obedience to all rules for a successfull society.

    believing few, leaving some,choosing selfishly is not islam but it is HYPOCRISY

    I dont know why ppl are so focused on this fatwa. Its really not that difficult to understand. If you want intermingle with the other sex who arent mahram make them your mothers or breast-fed relative and you there you go.

    IF you were to understand Quraish sarcasm then you might be able to understand what the scholar said.

    They are crossing limits, boundaries set by ALLAH ALMIGHTY, by ALLAH ALMIGHTY's last Messenger Muhammad (SAW).

    They need to re-read books on downfall of civilizations, nations, countries. Those civilizations that are about to die, its people engage in such activities. We have seen this all throughout history of mankind.

    Wow! Not just zia m's (and sasherwani's) frustration but desperation. And I remember this 'fatwa' from three years earlier, as the story itself mentions. He I think is running away from the spanking in that other thread:
    "Wow...heat is really too much for you to bear, so why not get out of the kitchen!"

    Of course zia m thinks he has nothing else to defend "Sufis, Shia, and Ahmedis" so he is going to do it by attack Saudis -- childish tactic I must add ("But mom, he did it too!")
    ;-)

    BTW: Didi I miss an attack on Shias as zia m seems to imply?

  25. The present time demands a new World Order achievable through a Global Alliance of Jews, Christians and Muslims who need to get their vision adjusted to the logic of events as they have unfolded in the beginning of the 21st century. If, thus, the believers correct their course to pursue such values as conform with God’s universal plan, design and order, they will be rewarded with world leadership.

    Otherwise, Nature will, for the correction of course, permit the evil to gather momentum and rush with fury to a WAR ON THE BELIEVERS who will suffer substantial loss before reuniting to once again play a role on the world stage.
