    [rquoter]Egypt: Fatwa allows breast-feeding among adults
    Associated Press, THE JERUSALEM POST May. 21, 2007

    Al-Azhar University, one of Sunni Islam's most prestigious institutions, ordered one of its clerics Monday to face a disciplinary panel after he issued a controversial decree allowing adults to breast-feed.

    Ezzat Attiya had issued a fatwa, or religious edict, saying adult men could breast-feed from female work colleagues as a way to avoid breaking Islamic rules that forbid men and women from being alone together.

    In Islamic tradition, breast-feeding establishes a degree of maternal relation, even if a woman nurses a child who is not biologically hers. It means the child could not marry the nursing woman's biological children.

    Attiya - the head of Al-Azhar's Department of Hadith, or teachings of the Prophet Muhammad - insisted the same would apply with adults. He argued that if a man nursed from a co-worker, it would establish a family bond between them and allow the two to work side-by-side without raising suspicion of an illicit sexual relation.[/rquoter]

    where does it say the prophet allowed that?

    the dude who is the head of the department about the teachings of the prophet said its ok.

    secondly the school is saying this is wrong.

    any other lies basso?

    I can see the pros and cons of this because of the women I work with. Are you allowed to be selective? ;)

    So, having the guy suck on the girl's t*tties is going to remove suspicion of a sexual relationship? Those wacky Muslims. :)

    Take a reading comprehension course. Nowhere does it say Muhammad condoned it.

    Isn't there some old axiom about being able to pick your friends but not your family?

    What boob said that?

    I assume the point as usual for Basso is that Muslims are subhuman. Therefore we should have the Iraqi War to kill as many as possible before they multiply. Also as with cockroaches, only the squeamish would object to crushing their body parts.

    I think Basso despite a stiff upper lip, (and perhaps a stiff groin when contemplating torture), is having a bad war.

    All right, so me and an atttractive female are working together, and somebody unexpectedly walks in. In order to alleviate any suspicion of an improper relationship, I have to put my mouth on her naked breast. Downside?

    It would suck for you to be on the jury for the trial of any brown person... So much for keeping an open mind.

    Hmm...so I can do it and demand religious accommodation, then if that doesn't work and I get fired I can sue the company for violating my rights.

    Ali G would be proud!

    What a lame, deceptive way to try to denigrate an entire religion.

    Not according to Ezzat Attiya, who actually has some credentials.
