Well here is your answer, from the same group as issued the song 'fatwa':

Veiled burqa threat from Jamiat faction
Sowmya Aji
Deoband (Uttar Pradesh), November 3, 2009
Urging Muslim women to wear the burqa, the Maulana Mahmood Madani faction of the Jamiat Ulema-i-Hind has said women who favour clothes other than the conservative attire bring disrepute to the community.
“Our girls are going out in other kinds of clothes now. All you men here should ensure that our sisters, mothers and wives wear the burqa. We lose honour and modesty because of them and, if this continues, we will never recover from the disrepute,” a mullah said at the Jamiat’s general body meeting on Monday held in this conservative seminary town of Deoband. The Jamiat is endorsed by a body of 5,000-odd men.
In line with the Deobandi thinking, which the Taliban claim influenced them, the Jamiat came down heavily on women in several resolutions.
Individual mullahs from all parts of the country, speaking on the various resolutions, made it clear what they feel a woman’s status in society should be - “secondary and subdued”. The Jamiat also disapproved of 33 per cent reservation for women as “unnecessary and unacceptable” but wanted separate reservation for Muslims.
Another resolution suggested the setting up of “social reform committees” in all villages, whose job among other things includes stopping the youth from watching cinema, TV and “other moral killing things”.
So they are basically a bunch of guys telling people what to do. I guess one should take all their 'fatwas' with a pinch of salt and pick and choose or......follow all of them to the letter.
"Deaths in the Bible. God - 2,270,365
not including the victims of Noah's flood, Sodom and Gomorrah, or the
many plagues, famines, fiery serpents, etc because no specific numbers
were given. Satan - 10."
"today it's the song...what tomorrow? ..."
