Selangor mufti criticises Obedient Wives Club

SELANGOR mufti Datuk Mohd Tamyes Abd Wahid yesterday lambasted the Obedient Wives Club, saying its on-going campaign, Rasulullah Tokoh Seks Suci Islam, was degrading.

Such a campaign would only tarnish the image of Prophet Muhammad, he said.

Tamyes added that OWC's "highly unusual campaign" in honour of the prophet's birthday on Feb 5, or 12th Rabiul Awal in the Islamic calendar, could degrade the prophet and Islam instead of helping to tackle the growing moral decay among Muslims.

"This campaign can tarnish Prophet's Muhammad's image. This is not the way to commemorate his birthday. He did not marry just for sex. He married women from different tribes to bring the Arabs together and spread Islam."
