I don't know - Gough Whitlam, Bob Brown...

I certainly wouldn't hang their picture up on my wall at home.

I cringe whenever I see places like Damascus with giant portraits of Bashar Al Assad looking sagely. Even for most non-muslims that would come across as a bit creepy I would imagine.

I thought you just said "there is a good chance they will start worshiping them as idols". So which is it? Creepy, or some kind of unstoppable spiritual force?

People who can't distinguish between etymology and entomology bug me in ways I cannot put into words.

I never referred to any "unstoppable spiritual force". Where did you get that? Also why is it confusing if I say its creepy?

Re: Mohammad -the role model for muslims Reply #36 - Aug 5^th, 2013 at 6:40pm I was trying t get you to explain the difference between most muslims finding it creepy and "a good chance they will start worshiping them as idols".

Reading comprehension again. I said even non muslims would find it creepy, and most muslims would be disgusted by it. Those fawning over Assad though no doubt see nothing wrong with it.

Even Bukhari who is pretty solid for the sunni side says it is haram for a girl who has reached puberty to have dolls
www.sunnah.com/bukhari/78/157

The opinion that you have referenced is written in brackets and comes from the book Fath-ul-Bari.

Fath-ul-Bari was written by Ibn Hajr Asqalani, who finished the book in 1428 - nearly 600 years after Bukhari wrote his book on prophetic narrations.

What you have presented is merely the opinion of Asqalani. It is not a hadeeth, and does not come from Bukhari.
