AN Egyptian cleric's controversial fatwa claiming that nudity during sexual intercourse invalidates a marriage has uncovered a rift among Islamic scholars.
According to the religious edict issued by Rashad Hassan Khalil, a former dean of Al-Azhar University's faculty of Sharia (or Islamic law), "being completely naked during the act of coitus annuls the marriage". The religious decree sparked a hot debate on the private satellite network Dream's popular religious talk show and on the front page of Al-Masri Al-Yom, Egypt's leading independent daily newspaper.
Suad Saleh, who heads the women's department of Al-Azhar's Islamic studies faculty, pleaded for "anything that can bring spouses closer to each other" and rejected the claim that nudity during intercourse could invalidate a union.
During the live televised debate, Islamic scholar Abdel Muti dismissed the fatwa: "Nothing is prohibited during marital sex, except of course sodomy."
For his part, Al-Azhar's fatwa committee chairman Abdullah Megawar argued that married couples could see each other naked but should not look at each other's genitalia and suggested they cover up with a blanket during sex.

LOL...good observation
Hmm, maybe that would be a better idea, show them naked, that would be the best birth control they could get......
Does the same rule apply when raping infidel women and children.
Does this apply to the 72 virgins as well?
"... And coming up after the break, "Fatwa Committee Chairman discovers "wife" of 54 years was a man..."
For his part, Al-Azhar's fatwa committee chairman Abdullah Megawar argued that married couples could see each other naked but should not look at each other's genitalia...
Oral sex. No oral sex. Oral sex. No oral sex. ........ "Where did you put the blindfolds, honey?"
Well, you've got your sodomy & I have mine...
Simple, the Left is a champion of suppression of women's rights and equality under law. The Left wants women to be in the kitchen, barefoot and pregnant ala Islam.
Did I get that right?
