WTF?!? thedailywhat: This Is All Kinds Of Wrong of the Day: Saudi Arabia’s Committee for the Promotion of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice (CPVPV) has the authority to order women with “tempting eyes” to cover them up, according to a committee spokesman. Sheikh Motlab al-Nabet was quoted by the Egyptian news website Bikya Masr as saying that a member of the notorious Sharia-enforcing body was acting justly when he ordered a women to cover her “sexy eyes.” The Saudi newspaper al-Watan reported that the woman’s husband was stabbed in the hand twice during an altercation over the decree, and had to be hospitalized. The CPVPV is controversial even within Saudi itself, as its power to enforce Islamic laws comes from the king rather than the state.  [bikyamasr / usatoday.]
