Do you really understand the significance of this "sex slave" marriage?

" Even stripping the sex-slave of her hijab, the way Awn did, has precedent. According to Islamic jurisprudence, whereas the free (Muslim) woman is mandated to wear a hijab, sex-slaves are mandated only to be covered from the navel to the knees—with everything else exposed. Awn even explained how Caliph Omar, one of the first "righteous caliphs," would strip sex-slaves of their garments, whenever he saw them overly dressed in the marketplace. "

This is HUGE!! It's an attempt by secular Muslims to use Islamic law to circumvent the requirement for women to wear the Hijab.

It means that Fundamentalists have very little argument, or authority, to enforce the wearing of the Hijab.

I expect to see more of these..
