An Islamic group is recommending that Muslims avoid the new full-body scanners at airports, and opt for body frisk searches instead because the new technology violates religious teachings Ecumenical News International. The Fiqh Council of North America, a group of Muslim scholars, says the scanners see through clothes to create a three-dimensional image of a person's naked body. In a statement, the group said, "It is a violation of clear Islamic teachings that men or women be seen naked by other men and women." The statement noted that the scans are, "against the teachings of Islam, natural law and all religions and cultures that stand for decency and modesty".
