    Barbers in Pakistan’s Bajaur tribal area have decided not to shave men following threats from militants who claimed that it was against the tenets of Islam.

    Local officials said that unidentified men had circulated pamphlets in Bajaur tribal agency two days ago, threatening the local barbers to stop shaving men or face the consequences.

    The handwritten pamphlet stated that shaving beards was un-Islamic.

    At an "emergency" meeting summoned at Inayat Kallay, local barbers decided that they would stop shaving men, the BBC Urdu Service reported.

    What do u think ,has this BARBARIC act any logic?

    Similar stories have been told of ice sellers and other commodities.

    It seems if the Prophet didn't have them then we can't. Surely he would have supported progress?
