Qatar has banned football players and fans from engaging in sex outside marriage during the 2022 FIFA World Cup competition in the Gulf state later this year.
The ban applies to both Qatar nationals and foreigners attending the world’s biggest football event from November 21st to December 18th, according to reports.
British news outlet Daily Star reported that FIFA officials warned that “no exceptions will be made,” emphasizing that one-night stands could lead to seven years’ imprisonment.
Foreign nationals attending the tournament will also have to comply with the Qatari laws, such as the criminalization of public intoxication. Drinking and partying after matches is also strictly prohibited.
“Sex is very much off the menu, unless you are coming as a married couple. There definitely will be no one-night stands at this tournament,” a police source was quoted as saying.
“There is essentially a sex ban in place at this year’s World Cup for the first time ever. Fans need to be prepared.”
Qatar laws which are based on Islamic legal tradition classify sex outside of marriage, pregnancy out of wedlock, and adultery as crimes punishable by imprisonment.
“Qatar is a conservative country and public displays of affection are frowned upon, regardless of sexual orientation,” Qatar’s Supreme Committee for the delivery of the 2022 World Cup announced in a statement.

Why go there in the first place.Matters groin area need no surveillance. They are privately enshrined in natural laws. What I do with my groin as long as is consensual is a no go zone by overbearing religions.Many Americans and Brits will be guests in jails of these religious extremists.

The most affected will be Kenyan elite tourists/adulterers including Uhuru,Raila,Ruto,MPs etc.Tayari parliament has paid air tickets for the Qatar trip for a large number of Kenyan women MPs(who might even lose their seats).Others who have already paid are JEFF St,MODERN GREEN and WANJIRU JOY traders.

Stoning or 7 years imprisonment? You could end up stoning entire teams and then you have no one to play. This will be very difficult.

I dont see a problem if someone brings his or her own partner.That way,they are not interfering with sheikhs’s supply. I wonder if this regulation will reduce the number of attendants since one can just watch the games on TV.
I bet you if that oil dries up,or an cheap fuel alternative is found, you will see these type of rules dry up as well.Not too long ago women were not allowed to drive in Saudi Arabia,but when bid Uncle Sam raised eye brows that changed. -Dollar is power.
How did such a conservative…
How did such a conservative state,succeed in hosting 2022 FiFa World Cup? All these prohibitions they are throwing around at potential soccer fans,and other visitors are the main money attractions; drinking, sex…Mark you this is just a one time event…
I also understand that non Muslims can purchase alcohol. Is the law changing for the sake of the World Cup?.
For those who are not married,no problem. Islam allows Mutah- That is temporary marriage that ranges from afew hours to maximum 3days,and can be renewed if both parties agree to extend the contract.Basically its legalized prostitution.See they thought of everything…
Understandably these rules are there to curtain rowdiness associated with soccer fans,and rightly so.But they will not be obeyed…fully. All those rich sheikhs have it all planned with truck loads,of liquor,and sex slaves on offer at their private pavilion,and castles.
I plan to attend with my Mexican squeeze,but we shall sleep in separate beds.But should matters get worse for some reason and I get arrested,please be nice and drop a dollar on my GO-FUND-ME, I thank you in advance.

@Maxiley – This soccer event is not for you. You will be stoned on the first night upon arrival. Your Mexican gal can’t go there either unless both of you have a marriage certificate to show.. No kinkies!!
Now – can you and me meet in Qatar for the soccer match?? The law there certainly will make us b have and be best friends….
You sure they will be…
You sure they will be checking for marriage certificates? .Like I said , Islam allows for temporary marriages,and I believe it was intended for situations – as this one organized by FIFA. So, Iam going to become a Muslim-temporarily. I will be Adbullah Bin Muta for the duration of this worldcup. The plan is that,I will marry you for the duration ,and if the’ test driving” is good …mmmm we can talk of extending it. What say you?

The content creators of FIFA…
The content creators of FIFA didn’t think wisely on choosing an Arab country to host the greatest world sports event.
The best part of those events is to have great party moments with your fans, which sex and alcohol is the best catalyst for it.
Most of us are born of these so called illicit sex, otherwise we would never have existed on this beautiful planet Earth.

@SAMco18, dont you recall FIFA officials were in trouble for taking bribes ,I think 2 or so got amillion dollar each for votes to have Quatar as the host nation for 2022 world cup?
The question is what is in it for the Arab Nation? The simple answer is that the world is becoming a global village.They realize the power powerful and influential countries in the world are not”too Muslim” in religion and culture.Since they dont want to be alienated ,they are slowly “fitting in”.After all, they also realize that Oil is not going to be there forever…

@ SimamaImara,those Arab and Muslims Nations are oppressive. Do you really want to live like they live? Human spirit always yearns for freedom.Why not control their freedom instead of denying them,cause it leads to alot of hypocricy.

Africans have also had strange customs – widow cleansing and wife inheritance when a husband passes away, wife sharing in Northern Namibia and amongst some pastoralists in Kenya and one mountain community(my great great great guka was from this community). Morality in this case seems subjective.
