Fuck'em, we don't need no muslims on Mars either...

Someone should tell em, there's no righteous reason for a muslim to be in Birmingham either.

Get that new Fatwah going.

[Rum]

What the fatwa?

[JimC]

Any little splinter group of "muslim leaders" can issue a fatwa; other muslim groups can and will ignore it.

It's probably a damn good thing they remain divided. If they ever fully re-unified under a charismatic neo-Saladin, there could be trouble.

Luckily, I think their divisions run too deep for that to ever happen...

One oil-strike and they'll be all over the place!

[Blind groper]

I hereby issue a fatwa against any Muslims living on planet Earth, since there is no righteous reason why they should.

Ground control to Major Habib.

We just switched your power off. On instructions from your imam. Hope that's ok.

Oh dear, you're going blue, and there's nothing we can do.

In Kim Stanley-Robinson's Mars trilogy, teh muslims play a central part on Mars.

Thought Muslims would like Mars. Those spacesuits are very modest. Can't see any rape-provoking ankles or nostrils or anything.

I should imagine it's more difficult to blow things up in a lower pressure atmosphere and you can't burn an American flag if there's no oxygen and which the fuck way is Mecca from Olympus Mons?

Being on Mars would make the obligation of mecca pilgrimage hard to fulfill

Dust-devils, place is full of jinns. Thing is they could be right in a way....what we know about the universe at large could be written on a postage stamp.

The Martians are the WORST! In fact so bad we should assist the Anti-Martian sentiment and help fund them in a Glorious one way Jihad against the Red Planet.

I say we ship all the Christians, Muslims and Jews there.
