Serious Shia Cleric: Hijab is compulsory for girls when they turn nine under Islamic law

• Muslim girls aged nine were dressed in white as part of a Sydney hijab ceremony
• Australia's most senior Shia cleric Sheikh Kamal Mousselmani presided over it
• He said the hijab is compulsory for girls when they turn nine under Islamic law
• Adelaide Shia Imam Sheikh Mohammad Tawhidi said it amounted to Sharia law

'It's a white colour, it's a happy colour.'
However Adelaide Shia leader Imam Shaikh Mohammad Tawhidi said Islam classified eight as the adult age for girls and was worried by the ceremony's symbolism.
'I confirm that according to Islamic jurisprudence, a Muslim girl reaches the stage of maturity at eight to nine years of age,' he said.

'Hence the celebration took place, which means that they're no longer girls but adult females who would lead an adult life, including marriage.

'This goes against the Australian values and social ethics and is basically promoting and imposing Sharia law in Australia.'

The 34-year-old Iranian-born religious leader, who moved to Australia from Iraq in 1995, said the girls would have no idea how the ceremony symbolised them entering adulthood.

Sheikh Tawhidi said the hijab was only ever worn to symbolise maturity, which meant the hijab ceremony was different to a modern Jewish bar mitzvah, as Judaism had reformed to extend childhood.

Australia's most senior Shia cleric said the hijab ceremony was to symbolise a nine-year-old girl's maturity before very quickly retracting his statement

'The lives of those girls change from that point onwards and they're treated as adults,' he said.

The 24 girls took part in the ceremony at Banksia, in Sydney's south-east, on March 31.

Sheikh Mousselmani confirmed nine was the age when girls were considered mature in Islam before quickly retracting his statement.

'When the girl becomes nine or nine-and-a-half, we say they become eligible for hijab and we organised a party,' he said.

So when they turn eight they become adults. And when they turn 21, they become idiots!

What about those with a perfect and gorgeous body and want to display their curves? Bikini allowed? Or those who took up body building and wish to display their muscles?

Cheers!

It becomes legitimate for Muslim men to engage child prostitutes.

When they turn 21, they become over mature adults and brain over washed in radicalized ideologies.

Showing off one's body is not a sign of adulthood, but it displays a sense of confidence. And to some a sense of achievement. Some may relate to their sexuality, or sensuality, but that's personal.

Cheers!
