From the BBC:

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….

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.

    Surely one eye could be pretty seductive if you think like this guy. In fact if you think like this guy don’t you have to wonder why Allah put women on the planet? Surely he could have found some way of reproducing the species that didn’t involve people who have to be hidden away because of the danger that they might seduce good men.

    stupid clerics. They are the reason why we muslims are in this sad state of affairs. if they could talk about real problems instead of talking about hijab and namaz all the time maybe muslims would be one nation under real islamic sharia laws instead of these made up extremist laws in some countries.
