``Then again, an actuality not always recognized is that growing a beard or donning hijab/niqab does not necessarily increase piety nor diminish materialistic desires.``(Shujaat Wasty)

well said Shujat miaN -- you need only to add one or two more words: ......``nor diminish materialistic AND hormonalistic desires.

as for you if you have an iota of manly Canadian shujaat left in you you won`t allow your AmmaN and Abba ``to pick your bride for you``.....btw don`t touch a religious Muslima with a ten foot pole -- she will make your life hell prematurely on earth in old age -- way before you may be destined for the fun place in the after life......anyway.
