Windsurfing is actually easier in a burkha - as long as it's loose enough.

It could be classed as an unfair extra sail. Especially downwind.

But then it's not such an asset in the hurdles, unless there's a following wind. So I think they should all be allowed - swings and roundabouts.

Do they wear anything under a burka? If not, the tumbling during the gymnastics displays could be worth a look.

Swings and roundabouts. A couple of events I might be good at. Well, I was when I was younger.

That could be very sexy.

Even if they had knickers on, a flash would still be nice.

Wow, It's getting hot in here.

Whatever the Muslims call hell....I believe they'll be pretty sure you're going there, mistermac - with thoughts like that. Maybe that's why it was getting hot there....

Sychronised exploding.

Sychronised exploding.

Could save on the fireworks budget by combining this with the opening ceremony.

Infidel beheading.

The organisers of the Muslim Games believe it's a terrible irrelevance to have a 26.2-mile race that commemorates a western, infidel battle. The Marathon will therefore be replaced by "The Hejira". They do anticipate some objection from all but the Ethiopians to the fact that competitors will now have to run 210 miles.

... and you have to bring your own food with you, to be slaughtered, cooked and eaten in the approved fashion.

Infidel beheading.

With various degrees of difficulty...

The penknife hack, for example, can potentially be a bigger scorer than the boring old machete slash, if executed properly...

Obviously, with extra points for style:
Clean stroke with complete separation: 5 points
Parabolic separation: +1
Arterial blood spurt: +1
Double arterial blood spurt: +2
Double back-flip with a twist and a triple bounce: Automatic 10 points!

Synchronised praying, obviously. Five times a day.

It's recognised that the branch of Sufi-ism that includes the Dervishes will have something of an advantage.
