Egypt to Pass Law Allowing Husbands Sex Wih Dead Wives For 6 Hours After Death

Where are all the gullible fools that believed the huge lies of the Arab Spring and its freedom fighters? Hopefully they have all seen how stupid they are.

Don't swallow everything the Christian Science Monitor says. The fact is that parliament is considering it and that the parliament will be rapidly overtaken by the Islamic brotherhood when they sweep the army aside.

Whether the Brotherhood gain power in Egypt or not, the story is utter nonsence, the supposed cleric who started it, Amr Abdul Samea is a loon and believing anything that man says is akin to believing in the Westbro Baptist Church claims.......

The gullibility lies in accepting what Samea and the Al Ahram newspaper printed at face value, as it was an opinon piece from someone whose opinion is less than trustworthy.

The "Farewell Intercourse" law would allow husband to have sex with their dead wives up to six hours after death. The opinion piece was written by Amr Abdul Samea, a strong supporter of Hosni Mubarak. *

The news became an*internet sensation*after it was mentioned in an English version of*Al-Arabiya*and by Thursday afternoon it had set social media and the Internet on fire with several people claiming it to be false. **

Many*Egyptian on social networking site* claimed that the news was false and it might have been reported by sources loyal to Mubarak.

The*Christian Science Monitor*also reported that the chances of Egyptian lawmakers to pass that law were "zero" or in fact less than that and that the news was just an internet gossip passed around by social media. According to the CSMonitor, the facts around the story are supported by "zero evidence." *

The news of the proposal of the controversial law has sparked outrage among women's rights group, especially within Egypt's National Council for Women (NCW) blaming the government of "marginalizing and undermining the status of women" that would affect the country's human development negatively. *

Dr Mervat al-Talawi, head of the NCW, has also written to the parliament speaker requesting to not pass the law.

The Huffington Post*previously reported about Egypt parliament passing the law. However, the website later updated it saying that several people in Egypt were claiming that the story was false.

Jaber al-Qarmouty, prominent Egyptian journalist and TV anchor, criticized the whole idea of "allowing husband to have sex with dead wife."

"This is unbelievable. It is a catastrophe to give the husband such a right! Has the Islamic trend reached that far? Is there really a draft law in this regard? Are there people thinking in this manner?" al-Qarmouty said. *

British author, political commentator and blogger*Andrew Sullivan*said: "There is no evidence that such a bill exists or was under discussion in parliament at any point."

Just because a Christian publication deem him not to be a 'loon' does not make it so.

Forced female circumcision, banning women from voting/driving, execution for female rape victims would seem like acts of a 'loon' but they are commonplace in some countries.

What????

Samea is a loon because of his opinion and political motivations, it has nothing to do with whatever Christian publication you are taliking about.

You are saying that the Egyptian Parliament is considering it seriously as a fact, when there is absolutely no evidence to support the truth of that and plenty of more reliable sources than Samea stating the contrary. That some supporters of Mubarak have drafted it to try to discredit the Parliament doesn't surprise me, but to make a claim that this has any chance of being taken seriously or being made a law is ludicrous....it would take some pretty strange interpretations of Islam to justify it, interpretations that not even the Wahhabi or salafi Islamists or the Brotherhood are likely to support.

Maybe you should look at what those Wahhabis condone and then you wouldn't be surprised if they passed this bill.

Maybe you need to re-align your view of Egypt as the place you visited on holiday and met nice Egyptians as not being representative of Egypt. The Arabs are sweeping away relic leaders of the Cold War for Islam. The Arab Socialism was a very small part of the centuries of Islam in North Africa.
