The following view was expressed in the Asian Voice, 11th November 2006, by Mr Manzoor Moghul, Chairman, Muslim Forum, Leicestershire, UK.
Significant parts only reproduced here.
"However.....when the veil becomes an obstacle in the interaction between those women wearing it and the rest of our society, especially in terms of when identification causes social, cultural and political difficulties, those practising it should have enough flexibility in adapting themselves to the practical needs of the society in which they live...............
.........................................It is time that the Muslim community began to mature and instead of hiding behind sentiments of hurt and offence, they should have the belief that they are able to argue their corner convincingly and with confidence"
(These views are of Mr Manzoor Moghul, Chairman, Muslim Forum, Leicestershire, UK)
Is this view, by a Muslim, unlike some, not entirely moderate and fair?
