#1 So the local muslim wimmins suggest the fatwa is "against the spirit and essence of Islam, which gives equal rights to women"? Methinks the bebearded ones might consider that as bordering on apostacy. The darn book lays out the rules pretty clearly and equality isn't part of the grand scheme for islamowomenfolkchattel. You'd do well to watch your step ladies!

#2 "She had a physical relationship with her father-in-law. It does not matter if it was consensual or forced," Mohammad Masood Madani, a cleric at Deoband

So we should stick you in our prisons to have a physical relationship with a man. Then we can stone you to death for same sex relationships, under your islamic laws. Brilliant!

#3 So all a guy has to do to marry the 'girl of his dreams' is to rape her?

#4 The women causing all this trouble will most likely be sentenced to public gang rape. That ought to teach em. As for that whole equality for women thing, that's a new one on me. Have these broads ever heard of Sharia? The Deoband school sounds like it is indeed a Wahabbi sect and pobably pulls that sharia stuff out of their ass all the time to handle uppity housewives.

#5 The point has been raised here before that Deobandi and Salafi/Wahabbi are similarly extremist sects, but arose independently -- one in Arabia, the other amongst the Muslims of India.

#6 Deobandi seem to be a Hanifi-type Sufi, not Wahabbi.

#7 It's not sick, it's Islam.

Wow. It's almost like they're working off the same source material.

#12 Deoband arose as a reaction to muslim defeat (the fall of the mughal empire to the British).
