Mars fatwa strongly denies Muslims a one-way trip to Mars



Emirates' General Authority of Islamic Affairs and Endowment Muslims (GAIAE) means that Muslims can not travel to Mars, even if they want to. A fatwa ( a legal pronouncement in Islam) so dictates, arguing that it would be "a real risk to life" and they likened it to suicide, which is forbidden in the Koran, as detailed by the CNN news organization on Feb. 25.

The Mars fatwa was issued by the Directorate General of Islamic Affairs and Endowment in UAE, in response to the draft of the Dutch company "Mars One" to send four people on a one-way trip to the red planet in 2022 and begin a settlement there.

“Such a one-way journey poses a real risk to life, and that can never be justified in Islam,” said the GAIAE committee. “There is a possibility that an individual who travels to planet Mars may not be able to remain alive there, and is more vulnerable to death."

More than 200,000 people have applied to be selected to travel to Mars and not return. Experts, however, have questioned the financial viability and practice of the mission.

Ahmed Shaaban of the Khaleej Times reported on the news of the Mars fatwa from the GAIAE, the highest Islamic authority in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), against the journey of human beings to Mars. The fatwa issued by the committee has stated that a trip to the red planet was prohibited by Islam.

These Mars volunteers need a better rocket fuel than liquid hydrogen. Aren't they capable of imagining how to improve rocket engine technology? Their first task before Mars should be building that better engine.

But it all depends on their attitude toward expedition deaths during the heroic age of Antarctic exploration. Maybe they have a pathological need for a high school named after themselves and memorial statues like Robert Falcon Scott's. Since rockets engineers don't get that honor, the Mars volunteers decided that better engines aren't necessary to win the race to Mars and immortality. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heroic_Age_of_Antarctic_Exploration#Exped

And here I thought your objection would be about the consequences of potential terrorist moles becoming rocket scientists.

I'm proud of you AU.

But anyway, yeah, there actually IS a taboo against suicide in the Koran. All the nutjobs who train suicide bombers are actually deliberately going against the holy word. You can't become a martyr by being a suicide bomber. The corrupt rich bastards are lying to impoverished disenchanted young Muslims to feed their own political agendas because they're too frightened and cowardly to fight with honour. So instead they're just throwing out a bunch of cannon fodder. It's actually pretty sad.

Don't worry Muslims, us atheists can handle it. You can go to Mars when we build something awesome.

I'm a bit confused, as there was talk of some Islamic group wanting to build a mega Mosque on the moon.

That's probably where Obama was hoping to make headway w/ the Muslims, I suppose.

The Germans are so jealous of Mars. Pretty much everyone in the world is jealous of Mars.

The only reason that Muslims aren't allowed on Mars is because America hasn't conquered it and set up an Embassy.

True.

Could we put them all on a rocket and send it to the sun?

Ew... The sun would smell like curry. You can't ever get that smell out.

maybe the Moon was always politics, after all it was the ColdWar the USA vs Soviets


Robots first or Diversity of all peoples?? maybe not, the Moon politics is weird...
"Moonbat" some might say


a Hollyweird movie 'Hidden Figures' claims 3 Female Blacks had to teach White Men how to add figures...Tinseltown Globalists were unhappy with history and that is was in fact EX-NAZI scientists who got NASA back into the Space Race...the Feminist Wakanda thing seems to be mostly historical fake garbage

...so on to Mars

and goodbye DEI

or is Musk still having problems and China might do it first?

the wrong stuff

NASA Abandons Pledge to Put Women, Astronauts of Color on the Moon
https://eos.org/research-and-developments/nasa-abandons-pledge-to-put-
women-astronauts-of-color-on-the-moon


on Merit?

abandon the plans--they were instructed to abandon them by the Trump Administration via Executive Order.

picking the best people for the job and not some Diversity Religion Transexual quota

the best pilots and most qualified persons, if they happen to be all White and Male whats the problem, people fly safe...picking those who were the best pilots while not filling a political quota
Why is that so hard?
