  Women in Saudi Arabia have begun registering to vote in municipal elections, the first time they are able to take part in the electoral process in the kingdom.
  
  Women will also be able to stand as candidates in the polls, slated for December.
  
  The ongoing voter registration and the planned vote usher in a new and "exciting time" for women, as they participate in local governance, Afnan Linjawi, a Saudi writer, told Al Jazeera on Wednesday.
  
  "I didn't expect this to happen so soon," Linjawi, who is also a first-time voter, said. She credited local female leaders for pushing the initiative, as well as the newly named King Salman for approving it.
  
  Linjawi said that while some sectors of Saudi society view women's suffrage as a "Western intrusion", she sees a "linear advancement in women's participation" in the country's affairs and politics.
  
  "I guess with any change that happens, you have to face opposition."
  
  On Monday, two women from Mecca and Medina became the first female voters to register.
  
  December's polls is the third time municipal elections have been held since 2005.
  
  Partial local elections first took place in 2005, but with only men voting for male candidates for half of each municipal council.
  
  Elections were to be held every four years, but in February 2009, the government announced that it was postponing indefinitely "for evaluation" the 2009 polls, as the push for universal suffrage intensified.
  
  In 2011, the election originally scheduled in 2009, took place, and during the same year legislation was passed allowing women to vote and run for office by 2015.
  
  At the same time, the legislation also set the voting age to 18.
  
  According to the Saudi Gazette, a third of the 1,263 voting centres are being set aside for female voters

  The Arabs Muslims are scrambling for western education, and the stupid black Africans are embracing deadly Islamic education. Africa will never prosper so far as we embrace this deadly Islamic occultic. Look at West African Islamic countries. What good things do you hear from there that some Ghanaians are kissing this deadly Islamic occultic religion?

  Fighters from the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) beheaded an antiquities scholar in the ancient Syrian city of Palmyra and hung his body on a column in a main square of the historic site, Syria's antiquities chief said on Tuesday.
  
  ISIL, which controls swathes of Syria and Iraq, captured Palmyra in central Syria from government forces in May, but is not known to have damaged its monumental Roman-era ruins, despite their reputation for destroying artifacts they view as idolatrous under their interpretation of Islam.
  
  Syrian state antiquities chief Maamoun Abdulkarim said the family of Khaled Asaad had informed him that the 82-year-old scholar who worked for over 50 years as head of antiquities in Palmyra was executed by ISIL on Tuesday.
  
  Asaad had been detained and interrogated for over a month by the Sunni Muslim armed fighters, Abdulkarim said.
  
  Abdulkarim said Asaad was known for several scholarly works published in international archaeological journals on Palmyra, where antiquity flourished as an important trading hub along the Silk Road.
  
  He also worked over the past few decades with U.S., French, German and Swiss archeological missions on excavations and research in Palmyra's famed 2,000-year-old ruins, a UNESCO World Heritage Site including Roman tombs and the Temple of Bel.
  
  Before the city's capture, Syrian officials said they moved hundreds of ancient statues to safe locations out of concern they would be destroyed by ISIL fighters.
  
  In June, ISIL blew up two ancient shrines in Palmyra that were not part of its Roman-era structures but which the fighters reportedly regarded as pagan and sacrilegious.
