Faceless ‘Sharia-compliant’ doll launched in UK

A £25 faceless doll – which goes along with a strict interpretation of Islam that forbids the depiction of faces – has sparked backlash among some Muslims after it was launched in Britain by a former teacher.

Hijab-clad Romeisa – named after a follower of Mohammed who personally knew him – was conceived by Ridhwana B., a former Muslim school teacher in the north of England.
