    how so?
    it's not like you need any visual input to imagine. Did you know that the Taliban banned wooden heeled shoes for women?
    Apparently the clip clop sound of wooden heels on stone pavement is provocative for the men.
    Very strange when you think that they can see nothing of their bodies, since the women cover not only their whole body, hair and face, but even have a gauze veil over their eyes, and so, it's possible that there is a man under the veil...

    What a horrible thought - a man under the veil! So what shoes do they have to wear? silent ones?

      yes, soft soled shoes, this was during the time of the Taliban in Afghanistan, so I don't think it's still in effect.
      I read it in the Reader's Digest.
      They even severely beat up some men because they didn't have beards, and it might have been a racist attack because they were from some East Asian origin ethnic group and didn't have much facial hair naturally.

        That is so sad. I have a beard (of sorts) but that is by choice, I would never condemn anyone for not having one.

          Pubic hair has nothing to do with submitting to God. First we should be more concerned with the day of judgement. that would eliminate the mention of such a trivial matter.
          Read the Quran, hopefully that would bring you to a more enlightened state.

                  Okay let's make it clear.

                  Is it in the quran? Or is it against the quran?

                  What does quran 4119 say?

                    it's talking about corrupting God's creation.
                    that makes me think of mutations and silicone implants and other unnatural things that cause damage to tissues below the skin.

                    I don't see how keeping or removing body hair, depilation, shaving, cutting, dyeing, piercings, tattooing are corruptions of God's creation.

                    But female genital mutilation, circumcision, sex change operations (but not gender play or gender bending or any other form of self expression that should be left entirely to the freedom of the person involved), or lengthening of the neck using brass coils as in a Burmese tribal group; these seem to be corruption of God's creation.

                    I am aware that I have not provided proof, but my opinion, but that is because the word 'corrupting' can be interpreted in different ways. For me, that would be any form of modification that is more than skin deep and/ or is capable of causing net harm to the person concerned, sometime in the future.

                    It would be great to know other people's understanding of this verse.

                    Peace

                      I agree with you. circumcision is a mutilation especially when carried out on a female.

                          It is worse than killing a female in my opinion. Even animals wouldn't do that '(

                            killing is always worse.
                            you can repair the damage partially, but you can't bring a dead person back to life

                                animals never cause massacres or mutilate other animals for any reason.
                                Human beings (some, not all) cause more suffering than any other being.

                                    I just feel like the use of the word 'animal' is wrong. I think 'beast' would be more appropriate, since it has the connotation of aggression and cruelty.

                                    I'd never use the word beast to describe a non human animal though.
