A resident of Saudi Arabia Abdo Hikmy decided not to cut his mustache and hair on his head until their length became worthy of registration in the Guinness Book of Records. But, as the ITAR-TASS correspondent notes, in the kingdom this caused disputes. In fact, can a faithful Muslim allow himself to let go of his mustache if the Prophet Muhammad did not approve of this?
For some time, Abdo hesitated between belief and ambition, growing curls and mustache. But then letters from the Committee for the Promotion of Virtue and the Prevention of the Vice - the All -powerful Control over Islamic Morality began to come to him. In these letters, 37-year-old Hikmi was strongly recommended to cut immodest vegetation under the nose.
In the end, Abdo Hikmy gave up. Registration in the Book of Records of the Guinness of the Saudi Usac will not take place.
