That's how it's done! Indonesian women troll cleric who ‘banned’ selfies

Lol. Some Indonesian women decided to troll & mock a well known Indonesian cleric after he issued a ban on women taking selfies in the country. Below is a report from Alarabiya.net
Never ask a woman not to take a selfie, especially if she is Indonesian it seems. Many Indonesian women declared a social media war on Felix Siauw, a renowned cleric who issued a fatwa claiming that taking self portraits was a sin. The women’s response? Launching the hashtag campaign #Selfie4Siauw. Continue...


I a tweet stream, the cleric issued a 17-point manifesto in which he outlined the reasons for condemning selfies, according to the website  Coconuts Jakarta.
“If we take a selfie, sift through and choose our best pose, and then we’re awed and impressed by ourselves - worryingly, that’s called PRIDE. These days many Muslim women take selfies without shame. There are usually nine frames in one photo with facial poses that are just - My Goodness - where’s the purity in women?,” Siauw wrote.
The 30-year-old cleric has over a million followers on Twitter.

See what some defiant women did below...

The truth is this is a religious thing! We need to start worshiping God and not religion. God never said "THOU SHALL NOT TAKE SELFIES", Region did
