Education and Facial Hair

Sometimes it get's old pointing out how Islam, through the implementation of sharia law, continues to remove any vestige of free choice, free expression and perceived insults to Allah.  I will continue on, as these stories will always illustrate how the problems within Islam are a result of upholding Muhammad as "al-insan al-kamil" or the perfect man, who's behavior is to be emulated by every Muslim for all time.

If Muhammad had a beard with no mustache, so will all Muslim males.


From AFP/Google Jan 8

DHAKA — The headmaster of an Islamic school in Bangladesh said Sunday that he had banned 15 teenage students from attending lessons after they trimmed their beards.
Mohammad Mudesser Hussain said the pupils were told to grow beards two inches (five centimetres) long before returning to study at the Tahfizul Quranul Karim Fazil Madrassa near the capital Dhaka.

"We called their guardians and told them their boys have trimmed their beards, which is against the uniform rules of the madrassa. They have been told to stay out of the madrassa until they sport beards again," he told AFP.

The uniform rules of the madrassa are sharia law, nothing less.  Islamic schools which teach the Qur'an, hadiths and sunna follow sharia laws. 

Many Islamic teachers disapprove of shaving, and Hussain said it was against the founding principles of his madrassa.
