Fatwa of the week: Cell phones are haraam, brother

From the desk of Shaykh Waswas al-Wahhabi,  in Riyadh…


Q:  Is it acceptable in Islam for a man to have a cell phones with with a hot  pink cover, and the ring-tones set on "I want your sex"? And is bluetooth ok, if it is only used with the intention of marriage?


A:  My dear brother in Islam, thank you for the confidence you place in us; may Allah enable us to answer your question.


Cell phones are without doubt a blight on the Umma. Nowadays, even when one goes to make tawaaf around the holy Ka'ba, one is constantly disturbed by the noise of their ringing, as well as by being forced to listen to even the intimate conversations of their ill-mannered owners. And the use of cell phones to facilitate sin is all around us.


There is no doubt that the introduction of cell phones into the Umma is a CIA-Zionist plot , funded by the Rand Corporation, which is intended to slow population growth of the Arab Muslim nation. It is well known that there is a clear connection between the number of hours men spend talking on their cell phones, and lower sperm counts. Just think, dear brother, a study done recently found that men who used cell phones for more than four hours a day had a 25 percent lower sperm count than men who had never used a cell phone!


Imagine what will happen to the population of the Arab Muslim nation in a generation or two, if our brothers continue to use cell phones as they do now! Soon, the Palestinians will have to import Indonesians to do their stone-throwing, and the Iraqis will bring in Bangladeshis to slaughter the Shi'ites.


So, the use of a cell phone, pink cover or no, is the very opposite of true manliness. The man who uses a cell phone is acting as a tool in the hands of the Zionists and Americans. And, he is also guilty of imitating the kuffar.


May Allah guide us all.

Can’t you tell it is a joke!


You should have read Waswas’ fetwa on the morning after pill.

1. She made the joke.


2. Ad Hominem vulgar heckling, nice. I saw your mother outside a bar last night, she was wearing army boots, and she had a douche-bag with her. It was the cheap kind you get at the drug store, you know the big rubber ones you reuse? Yeah, she was using it as a beer bong. Yeah, your heckle was about that funny dude.


3. We’re not supposed to have a sense of humor about ourselves? Are you a Wahhabi or a non-Muslim for whom we are to peform our Islam in a just-so way?

What's scary is how well you

What’s scary is how well you can reproduce salafist discourse in parts of your fatwa, especially the parts about the “Arab Muslim nation”. I do that to people too, only I keep it a little too real and word later gets back to me that they thought I was the most fundamentalist in the area, just my appearance with trousers past my ankles and a goatee and not a full beard throws them off balance. Yup, its scary all right. Are you a burned out salafi like me; how’d you get it down so well?

Omarg:
I find it interesting that your response was more about you than it is about the joke. the following is what you wrote about the joke:

Center, what the hell is the use of a comments section? I think its rude when people won’t/can’t share a little of themselves with others. I also think its rude when a person uses comments to constantly critique and not share…get the hint?

No Omar, I’m not a recovering Salafi, but I’ve heard more than enough of that kind of rhetoric down through the years. I should have used double vowels (“Allaah”, etc.) for a more authentic effect :-) .
