Gorro Habib,
Nothing of the sort. This man, through intellectual aggression seemed to have reached the conclusion that women can lead in prayer and that Moslems can own dogs as pets. Besides, I think I remember rightly that he was a fiery anti-wahabi, well read and waging a kind of intellectual crusade on many established interpretations of Quranic teaching; the sort of person, like Fouad Ajami, the establishment produces when it needs a native turncoat.

I do not remember
but if this man is handicapped and or on a wheelchair and his sons are younger than 11 years or he has only daughters and they are at home , guess the wife can lead for all practical purposes.
This is something I will try to find out - Interesting!!
