@Saintbertholdt - I don't know.
But those martyred jihadis are in for a shock. It turns out they don't get 70 virgins. Instead, they all share one 70-year-old virgin

LoveUniHateExams,
Turns out it could also be 72 Raisins, not 72 Virgins.

Lol! If only this was the mainstream Muslim understanding - women, Muslim and infidel alike, would be safe.
You'd probably get demented jihadis groping vines but that would be nothing in the scheme of things ...
Whatever, I'm sure Mo and Big Al knew what they were talking about

I'm-a just duck to the side here then.
Oubliette said: Seriously, these nutty religious ideas clearly make no sense and defy even basic logic. I suppose either Mohammed was either bad at math and logical thinking or he knew that most humans are or both.
Yes very true. Religion and faith require you to leave reason and logic behind. Facts and reality seem to constantly contradict these groups. I was a teenager doing the math on the JW 'we preach to all the inhabited Earth'. There is no way the number of JWs on the Earth can service the population of this planet going door-to-door. There was no interwebs back in my youth. Even today, there are a lot of people on the Earth with no interwebs.

The only internet reference to that sheik seemed to be that story repeated often. The source of it seems to only be MEMRI.
It is not the only person I ever heard that made reference to more than one wife, but all that hymen talk is actually a new one to me!
In real life, sheikhs do not commonly repeat that kind of thing teaching it literally. Even those who believe it do their best to back off the literal.
I dismiss hadith entirely so hearsay about what Mohammed said holds little weight. OTOH, most Muslims would dismiss me as a Muslim, so there is that!

Saintbertholdt: "Do female suicide bombers get 70 virgins too?"
No, they get to become one of the virgins. -

Why is this, if you don't mind me asking?

Then as a Muslim you are in a minority of one

Do you also dismiss the Quran where it instructs men to hit their disobedient wives?
