I would say B,

the idiom is "forbid X to do Y" or "forbid X from..."

IMO A:

I have a question guys...

If we keep the idiom usage aside...

IS the meaning of "strike" - in the sentence over here.. and the literal meaning of " striking" the same????
I doubt..
Coz neva heard or read, " striking" used in this way,in a context like this....

just my opinion...

My mistake,

I rechecked, the correct idiom is indeed X forbids Y to do Z
