Abu Omar explicitly uses Wahhabi law as the basis of its government, and the vast majority of its citizens follow this specific Islamic doctrine. Wahhabism is a puritanical version of Islam which takes a literal interpretation of the Qur'an and the Sunnah. Wahhabism takes a more tolerant form in Abu Omar than in other puritanical Muslim nations.
Almost all Omarian women wear the black abaya; the government, however, does not impose the style universally. The abaya is mainly passed down from generation to generation and is still present because of the traditional values of the country.
