Fatwa on tomboys
KOTA BARU: The National Fatwa Council has ruled that tomboyism, where a girl behaves or dresses in a boyish manner, is forbidden in Islam.
Its chairman Datuk Dr Abdul Shukor Husin said the decision was prompted by recent developments as there had been cases of young women inclined to behave like men and indulging in homosexuality.
Parents must stop their children from indulging in disruptive activities that are against Islamic teachings, he told reporters here yesterday. Bernama
====================================================
All I can say is this is a wagonful of craps!! Why must it be perceived to be a good Muslim, you must dress right, behave right? How easy for them to pass judgement and make conclusions that only women who behave and dress like men are indulging in homosexuality. There are women who dress real lady-like and they are lesbians too. Dressing means nothing.
This is the problem with how government, politicians, religious leaders interpret Islam and impose rules to the ummahs. It's always physical appearances....must wear scarfs so the whole world knows you are a muslim. And yet, what do you see at work places, in the malls or anywhere.....they wear scarfs but wear tight clothings, the boobs shapes can be seen in all glory to see. Butts in tight jeans and yet not a single hair can be seen from their head. How come there is no fatwa on this??
The hypocrisy of religion......
