Following are excerpts from an interview with Egyptian cleric Muhammad Hreiz Al-Sharif, which aired on Al-Nas TV on January 24, 2010:
Muhammad Hreiz Al-Sharif: Women today transform into men under the pretext of equality. Pay attention. This is very important. Women want to become equal to men. When a woman becomes equal to a man, she transforms into a man. Men do certain things, and a woman wants to become equal to men, she does thing that are forbidden.

Interviewer: Some girls have turned to this field.
Muhammad Hreiz Al-Sharif: That’s right. Someone told something peculiar. He saw a woman playing soccer in the World Cup. It is well known that when a man scores a goal, he takes off his jersey.
Interviewer: But they get the red card and are sent off the field.
Muhammad Hreiz Al-Sharif: Red card or not, they take off their jerseys out of joy. When that woman scored a goal, she took off her jersey, and exposed her breasts for all people to see.
