We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

Just under the article was a video about how they also banned music. With all these strict, bizarre rules, I wonder what you are allowed to do there besides stare at the wall.
Read the holy book, pray and work. What else would you even need, unless you're an infidel?
Muhammad, bring the stones!
Praying is a little bit like music though... Now that I think of it, breathing has this weird rhythmic quality. Maybe ban it plz?
I mean it's bizarre to us. But many followers of Islam do not condone images of living (often specifically sentient) beings. As with all things religious this is of course adhered to, from every possible extreme and sometimes not at all.
