Committee for the Promotion of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice (Saudi Arabia)
The Committee for the Promotion of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice (abbreviated CPVPV; (アラビア語:هيئة الأمر بالمعروف و النهي عن المنكر )), also informally referred to as Hai’a, is the Saudi Arabian government agency employing "religious police" or ''Mutaween'' (), to enforce Sharia Law within that Islamic nation.
The number of police is estimated at 3,500-4,000.〔 Members patrol the streets enforcing dress codes, strict separation of men and women, salat prayer by Muslims during prayer times, and other behavior it believes to be commanded by Islam. They are known for having full beards (sometimes henna-dyed) and for wearing their headscarves (ghutrah or shemagh) loose without an agal—they often wear a besht as well—and for often coming from Saudi Arabia's lower classes. They are empowered to detain and berate offenders and shut down businesses. Prior to the reforms of 2007 they were armed with thin wooden canes to strike miscreants.〔

The police were formerly called the Committee for the Propagation of Virtue and the Elimination of Sin, also CAVES or CPVPV. They are also known locally as ''Hai’a'' (literally "committee", also transliterated as ''Haia''〔() ''Arab News''〕 or ''Hayaa''〔), or ''mutawiyin'' (literally "the pious"). (See ''Mutaween'' for a list of variant spellings and an extended description of Islamic religious police.)
