So Saudi Arabia claims that Iran fabricated the story to embarrass the Grand-Mufti. It does have an “onion-like” quality to it.

But it just points to the larger issue. Who has “authority” in Islam? Well, there are respected Imams, Muftis or Mullahs. But their authority is really national or cultural. Maybe they are government appointed. Maybe they lead a particular sect or tribe, or maybe they just claim to represent themselves. As long as they claim to represent the Koran (and if they have enough money or guns) they will be listened to.

It simply shows - you can not “reform” Islam, because there is path to reforming it.

Morocco world news- The alleged fatwa, which was authored by Moroccan satirical columnist Israfil Al maghribi, was first published on the Moroccan news outlet Goud on March 29. The column called “E’ Ttniz E’ssyassi” (literally meaning Political Satire) is platform used by the author to lash out at politicians and Islamic clerics.

However, the fake story was taken seriously by pro-Iranian website al-Jumohouria, which carried the story without backing it with any evidence or specifying where or when such alleged fatwa had been issued.

I posted this in an earlier thread on the same topic:

if he wasn’t that hungry, to limit himself to a limb or two, or a “portion of flesh.”

Brings to mind the joke about the heroic 3-legged pig.
