Because many men, a large portion of the population, both non-Muslim and Muslim, have foot fetishes, to the point that it has caused major fitnah in men like me, even if the woman is wearing full hijab (Im not just talking about headscarf, but also loose clothing covering everything except face, hands and feet, with shape of body not apparent). Medical doctors say the cause is when neural pathways from the brain going to the private parts overlap with neural pathways going to the feet, thus making the brain associate feet with sexuality. I've heard people joke on here before about "eyebrow fetishes" but eyebrow fetishes don't exist, and even if they did, they are not common. Foot fetishes are common. Please stop producing fitnah. EDIT: I understand a large portion of the people on here are hanafi, but perhaps change the fiqh using ijtihad to suit the times? and besides, Qur'an and sunnah may take precedence over madhabs, if Im not mistaken. and ending fitnah takes precedence.
