3:46Now PlayingRecently on Turkish television, a muslim preacher said that it was sinful to masturbate. He added that when you die, your hands will become pregnant in the after life. Cenk Uygur, John Iadarola (Think Tank), Ben Mankiewicz (What The Flick?), and Jimmy Dore hosts of The Young Turks discuss.
"A Turkish televangelist advised viewers recently that men who masturbate would have to deal with “pregnant” hands after they died.
According to Hurriyet Daily News, a 2000 TV viewer told Muslim preacher Mücahid Cihad Han on Sunday that he “kept masturbating, although he was married, and even during the Umrah [pilgrimage to Mecca].”
Han warned the man that Islam viewed masturbation as a “haram” or forbidden act.
