We Should Give This Saudi A Few More Drinks - See What He Can Pull Off
I can see it now…heh heh…although in all honesty he’ll probably be in jail by Friday prayers, condemned to die.
CAIRO, MARCH 11 - An important Saudi religious man attacked the Islamic radicals who criticised him for having danced at a wedding.
“I confess it, I danced and I do not care about those who want to change the weddings into funerals, and the joy into pain,” Sheikh Abdul Mohsen Al-Obaikan said, quoted by an Arab daily.
In an Internet video the sheikh is dancing with a Bedouin sabre, as do princes at the balls during the national festivities.
“The society must free itself from the restrictions imposed by the ignorants,” Obaikan, adviser of the Saudi Minister of Justice, told Arab daily Asharq Al-Awsat.
Saudi Arabia follows the Islamic school Wahhabi, which prohibits singing and dancing and holds strictly separated men from women also during the weddings.
“There is no indication by the Prophet or by any other Islamic religious leader due to which the marriage has to be an occasion of prayer,” the man said.

Reminds me of the old joke, “Why is it that Baptists can’t have sex standing up? Because it is too much like dancing.”

March 11th, 2008 at 4:50 pmHe must have watched “Footloose” at the Grooms Bachelor party and become inspired to change the Arab world?
March 11th, 2008 at 5:09 pmGood for him-that place needs change.
March 11th, 2008 at 6:24 pmEh, “Obaikan” is pretty damned close (enough) to Obi Wan Kenobi…that Jedi knight extraordinaire.
March 11th, 2008 at 8:35 pmHope he doesn’t get his legs cut off.
March 11th, 2008 at 10:18 pmYou put your left foot in, you’d better pull it out, if the mullahs see you sin, then they’ll put your eyeballs out, if you do the hokie-pokie then you’d better run like hell, here comes an al-quaeda cell…
