| Muslim Council: women cannot debate wearing veil |
| 2011-04-17 |
| The Muslim Council of Britain (MCB) said that not covering the face is a "shortcoming" and suggested that any Muslims who advocate being uncovered could be guilty of rejecting Islam. In a statement published on its website the MCB, warns: "We advise all Muslims to exercise extreme caution on this issue, since denying any part of Islam may lead to disbelief. "Not practising something enjoined by Allah and his MessengerÂ… is a shortcoming. Denying it is much more serious." The statement quotes from the Koran: "It is not for a believer, man or woman, that they should have any option in their decision when Allah and his Messenger have decreed a matter." The statement will add to controversy about the veil after France earlier this week banned the full-face covering. |

| #1 Gee, I'm glad the Mo'hammies in Britain have succumbed to the tolerance of the native culture. Since Allan decrees that infidels, apostates, etc. should be killed can the UK look forward to an increasing violence level? I assume that women should be dropping like flies any day now since "rejecting Islam" is a capital offense. |
