Muslim Women Told It's Sinful to Wear A Bra

 
KOMPAS.com - The Shabaab movement in Somalia controls large parts of the south and centre of the country, and because officials in this movement embrace the Wahabi ideology they have imposed their views on Somalis by force and have issued strict decrees banning films, plays, dancing at weddings, football matches and all forms of music, even the ring tones on mobile phones.

Some days ago these extremists carried out a strange operation: they arrested a Somali woman and whipped her in public because she was wearing a bra. They announced clearly that wearing these bras was unIslamic because it is a form of fraud and deception.

We may well ask what wearing bras has to do with religion, why they would consider them to be a form of fraud and deception, and how they managed to arrest the woman wearing the bra when all Somali women go around with their bodies completely covered.
Did they appoint a special female officer to inspect the breasts of women passing by in the street? One Somali woman called Halima told the Reuters news agency: "Al Shabaab forced us to wear their type of veil and now they order us to shake our breasts... They first banned the former veil and introduced a hard fabric which stands stiffly on women's chests. They are now saying that breasts should be firm naturally, or just flat."

In fact this excessive interest in covering up women's bodies is not confined to the extremists in Somalia. In Sudan the police examine women's clothing with extreme vigilance and arrest any woman who is wearing trousers. They force her to make a public apology for what she has done and then they whip her in public as an example to other women.

Some weeks ago the Sudanese journalist Lubna al-Husseini insisted on wearing trousers and refused to make the public apology. When she refused to submit to flogging she was referred to a real trial and the farce reached its climax when the judge summoned three witnesses and asked them if they had been able to detect the shape of the accused's underwear when she was wearing the trousers. When one of the witnesses hesitated in answering, the judge asked him directly: "Did you see Lubna's stomach when she was wearing the trousers?" The witness gravely replied: "To some extent."

Lubna said she was wearing a modest pair of trousers and that the scandalous pair she was accused of wearing would not suit her because she is plump and would need to lose 20 kilos in order to put them on. But the judge convicted her anyway and fined her £500 or a month in prison.

In Egypt too, extremists continue to take an excessive interest in women's bodies and in trying to cover them up entirely. They not only advocate that women wear the niqab but also that they wear gloves on their hands, which they believe will ensure that no passions are aroused when men and women shake hands. We really do face a phenomenon which deserves consideration: why are extremists so obsessed with women's bodies? Some ideas might help us answer this question:

Firstly, the extremist view of women is that they are only bodies and instruments for either legitimate pleasure or temptation, as well as factories for producing children. This view strips women of their human nature. Accusing the Somali woman of fraud and deception because she was wearing a bra is the same charge of commercial fraud which the law holds against a merchant who conceals the defects of his goods and make false claims about their qualities in order to sell them at a higher price.

Some ideas might help us answer this question => Di Mesir juga, ekstrimis terus mengambil minat yang berlebihan dalam tubuh perempuan dan dalam mencoba untuk menutupi mereka sepenuhnya. Mereka tidak hanya menganjurkan bahwa wanita mengenakan niqab tetapi juga bahwa mereka memakai sarung tangan di tangan mereka, yang mereka percaya akan memastikan bahwa tidak ada nafsu terangsang ketika pria dan wanita berjabat tangan. Kami benar-benar menghadapi fenomena yang patut dipertimbangkan: mengapa ekstremis begitu terobsesi dengan tubuh perempuan? Beberapa ide mungkin bisa membantu kita menjawab pertanyaan ini.

Pandangan ini strip wanita dari sifat manusia mereka. Menuduh wanita Somalia penipuan dan penipuan karena dia mengenakan bra adalah biaya yang sama penipuan komersial yang memegang hukum terhadap pedagang yang menyembunyikan cacat barang dan membuat klaim palsu tentang kualitas mereka untuk menjualnya dengan tinggi harga.
