Muslim leaders issue a fatwa against anyone living on MARS

Muslim leaders issue a fatwa against anyone living on MARS as there is 'no righteous reason' to be there.

A Fatwa has been issued against living on Mars by clerics who say that trying to live there would be un-Islamic.

The fatwa – or ruling – was issued by the General Authority of Islamic Affairs and Endowment (GAIAE) in the UAE after the Mars One organisation announced that it would try and establish a permanent human settlement on Mars.

The committee argued that trying to dwell on the planet would be so hazardous as to be suicidal and killing oneself is not permitted by Islam.

How about terrorism?

How about drinking? (Actually outlawed in Islam but many don't care.)
How about living in the desert?
How about burning gigantic amounts of oil-derivates?
What about the space-station?
What about driving without helmet or seat-belt?
