Al-Azhar University has been busy; in addition to approving of suicide bombing, the tiny minority of fanatics who run the world center of Islam have condemned a book of poetry, because it dares to suggest that women can have feelings of their own.

Cairo - Sunni Islam’s highest authority, the Al-Azhar University, has blacklisted a book of love poetry even though it was approved for sale by the Egyptian government earlier this year, a senior cleric said yesterday. The university found that Commandments on Women’s Love contains commandments calling on women to “surrender themselves to passion”.
