When Muslim women are only allowed to show ONE EYE, while wearing the niqab...

CAIRO: A Saudi Sheikh recently issued a fatwa stating that women who wear the niqab (full face veil) are only allowed to show one eye, covering the other along with the rest of their bodies.
Sheikh Mohamed Al-Habdan issued that decree during his appearance on Al-Majd satellite channel.
“When Ibn Abbas [known for his knowledge and his interpretations of the Quran and the Prophet’s sayings] was reading the holy Quranic verse that mentions the veil, he covered his face and one eye, while showed a little of his other eye and said: this is the face veil, just enough to be able to see the way,” Al-Habdan said.
I wonder how many women would like to poke Sheikh Mohamed's other eye out for his asinine fatwa.
