A BBC sketch called Real Housewives of ISIS is causing quite a lot of controversy online.

The two minute sketch was created by BBC2 show Revolting, and pokes fun at jihadist brides.

The sketch is facing plenty of online criticism from fans who feel the sketch has gone too far with its depiction of Islamic women.

"'Real Housewives of ISIS' will make Hijabis feel more isolated n targeted by Islamophobes. Thanks @BBC for adding to the negative stereotype,"(sic) said one. 

However, others feel that the show does not make a mockery of Islam but of ISIS's "morally corrupt" values.

The recently revealed clip has garnered more than 33,000 Facebook comments, arguing as to whether or not the show is problematic.

The clip shows four British women, Afsana, Mel, Zaynab and Hadiya, who have travelled to Syria to join ISIS and become jihadi brides.

The sketch is delivered in the style of popular reality TV show The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

The sketch portrays the fact that Western women can be lured into joining ISIS by online forums and social media.

“It’s only three days to the beheading and I’ve got no idea what to wear," jokes one of the actors.

Another woman wears a suicide vest and asks: “What do you think? Ahmed surprised me with it yesterday.”

When another ISIS bride turns up wearing the same explosive device she says: “What a complete b****. She knew I had that jacket.”

Some viewers are praising the sketch for drawing attention to the fact that women can be recruited by SIS online, and see no issue in the jokes made.

"I like it. It’s making fun of ISIS which is a good thing. The whole point of satire is to bring people down to a level. If you can mock something, you’re not scared of it. ISIS want to be feared. Don’t give them that. And yes I’m Muslim, and a leftist. This does not offend me and even if it did, I just wouldn’t watch it," said one commentator.
