Saudi Arabia’s top religious cleric Sheikh Abdul Aziz bin-Abdullah Al-Sheikh does not shy away from controversy when it comes to his views on rights of women and other ‘groups’, as he interprets the teachings of Islam. In one of his latest statements he said that women should be banned from driving because it exposes them to evil! Saudi Arabia is ruled under strict sharia law, where the rights of women and various minorities are virtually non-existent. It should be at least worrisome, if not outright hypocritical, that the UN has appointed the theocratic country as head of the Human Rights Council! Here is a list of the bizarre worldview from Saudi Arabia’s religious leader:

1. Driving ‘exposes women to evil’
