“The Fiqh Council of North America (FCNA) emphasizes that a general and public use of such scanners is against the teachings of Islam, natural law and all religions and cultures that stand for decency and modesty,” the group said in a Feb. 10 statement posted at Islam Online.
"It is a violation of clear Islamic teachings that men or women be seen naked by other men and women," FCNA explained. The group noted that Islam emphasizes modesty, considering it part of the faith.

Screw you, mullah.
May the flies of a thousand camels(er, pigs) come to rest in your beer.
Take the train, Mohammed.
Or, dust off your flying carpet.
well... since it’s against your religion, and we don’t want to offend your religion... it’ll be ok for muslims to go around the scanners. after all, it’s not a religion we are after, but crazy people.

“Getting caught” violates the teachings of Islam....
If they don’t want to be scanned give em plan b, full body cavity search, put them in an explosion proof room and try to activate any inconsistencies with various devices..
I’m definitely for the scanners, now.
Better yet, boarding passengers must eat a plate of bacon.
