Nigeria: Sharia police ban stylish haircuts, sagging trousers, playing of music at social events

Oct 8, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer 12 Comments

I’m with them on the sagging trousers, but anyway, remember all the people who insisted that Sharia was completely compatible with Western secular values, and that anyone who thought otherwise was a racist, bigoted “Islamophobe”?

“Like In Kano, Hisbah Bans ‘UnIslamic’ Hairstyles, Dressing In Kebbi State,” SaharaReporters, October 6, 2020 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

Officials of Hisbah in Kebbi State have released fresh guidelines for residents of the state.

The agency established to enforce Sharia law in some states in Northern Nigeria, has banned stylish haircuts, sagging of trousers and playing of music at social events by disk jockeys.

Hisbah also banned commercial motorcycle and tricycle riders from carrying two women at a time.

This is in addition to other unusual directives reeled out by the Islamic police.

Hisbah recently made headlines for shaving stylish haircuts of young men in Kano, arresting people for improper dressing and seizing tricycle from riders for adorning them with pictures considered to be obscene and against the tenents [sic] of Islam….

      While Islam is ‘meddlesome,’ as a Christian who happens to be black I’m good with banning sagging trousers and rap music (if that is the case in this instance). Both should be banned in America as well-as they reflect the worst in black culture.

        @lambob

        Fully agree with you.I mean,what does it say about a guy if he cannot even put his own trousers on properly?

        Imagine such a guy going for a job interview.
        Imagine the interviewer’s response:”Dressed for failure I see”

        Sagging trousers should be a crime :against fashion!
        Not sure about ‘baggy trousers’..as opposed to ‘saggy trousers’

        Islam is more than meddlesome. It is cruel and evil.. Yes the low trousers look horrible but Islam is totally horrible.

    I’d like to see photos of some of those tricycles with the racy un-Islamic pictures to see how they stand up to the Mohamed cartoons.

    Restrictions govern what clothes to wear,
    The type of beard, and length of hair,

    What foods to eat, or music to hear,
    No bacon, no pork, no wine, no beer.

      Michael Copeland : ISIS and Al-Qeda did the same in Iraq especially on Baghdad in the areas which they took over where they prevented men from having stylish haircuts , shaving their beards and wearing western style clothes like jeans and shorts etc… and yet Muslims claim that ISIS were created by USA and the West !!😅😅

    ……………………….

    Yes–this oppression is mainstream Shari’ah.

    More:

    I’m with them on the sagging trousers…
    ……………………….

    I’m no fan of sagging trousers, either, which were originally a glorification of “gangsta” prison culture, although many of the kids who wear them have no idea–but I don’t want to see anyone flogged for wearing them, either.

    Yes, ban those sagging trousers. They’re degrading.

    Islam the dictatorship in action. Total mind control by the state of Islam. Why in the HELL would you let these Islamic thugs into your country. They come to take over your country through the Muslim/Islamic migration invasion of young military aged men. Close your borders or you too will be living under these outrages sharia laws.
