The fact that women are forbidden to drink coffee

In the context of posts that appear sarcastic at first on social networking sites and then spread among many seriously, the pages and accounts of a tweet attributed to someone who was said to be a Muslim cleric forbidding women to drink coffee in cafes.

 But this "tweet" was originally posted on a satirical account.

The posts carry an image that appears to have been taken from the screen from the Twitter account of a tweet that reads, "By God, you will not drink from the rivers of Paradise while you drink your coffee in front of the men in the cafe."

Although the tweet contains elements that raise doubts about its seriousness, especially grammatical and spelling errors in it, many users have re-posted it or treated it as serious.

In the past years, in conjunction with the rise in the intensity of religious extremist rhetoric and the prevalence of strange fatwas on social networking sites in the Arabic language, comic accounts and pages appeared bearing the names of fictitious clerics, which issued sarcastic "fatwas".

But some of these posts caused confusion among many users, so they re-published them seriously.

Among these sarcastic accounts is the account that posted this tweet about women and drinking coffee.

The account carries a modified image of a Saudi cleric, and all posts are satirical.
