The Sharia is keen on women's modesty and chastity. Displaying their charms to men is forbidden. Practicing sports in mixed clubs or places exposes a girl's charms and robs her of her modesty. Women must practice sports away from foreign men, and inside their homes is sufficient, as mixing is forbidden by Sharia. Women are required to be modest and covered and to avoid mixing with men, especially after puberty, and to stay away from violent sports that may harm them.
