Well.. first of all Muslim ladies cover themselves so that no guy would look at them, and its not like they cover their whole face, so they can recognize each other, and it is not ridiculous. It is just covering up that's it. So you can tell, but like in parties and gatherings they don't have to cover up, they can dress up and wear anything they want, because its all ladies.

akh your such a dumbass i don't know why i'm answering this. oh ya the two points.
when will people take the time to learn more about other cultures instead of listening to what is being spoonfed from the media?
if you had actually bothered to find out, not all muslims wear a scarf or cover their entire bodies. only the women do, and not all of them. plus not all women that wear scarves are muslim!
so stop with the stereotype and genearlizations. jeez. muslims could ask the same thing about christians. how do christians recognize each other on the street?!
oh ya and use spell check dumbass. your poor spelling and grammar only adds to how stupid you sound.

They don't. You're only a muslim if you say you are. There's no way of proving it or otherwise.
Some people cover themselves in scarves without being muslims. It's just the same as an agnostic that has a jesus fish bumper sticker on his car simply because he likes it, others might think he's a christian, but it could be untrue.
Besides, a yemeni friend of mine (who happens to be jewish) tells me that Jewish yemeni women cover their hair just like muslim women do. In Yemen, you can't see the difference between a jewish woman and a muslim woman by the scarf.

Ok, fist of all, in Islam, it is not neccesary for a woman to wear a burka (the big long black dress). All they have to do is wear clothes that cover the whole body to wrists and ankles and to shoualders and to cover their hair. The face can be shown. Some people are too extreme and require the burka.

Actually, honey, Muslim women cover their bodies and hair, which is an indication of religion. Some of them cover their faces from just below the eyes, not the whole face. Besides, if you covered your entire face, how would you see to walk down any street?

the women wearing scarves aren't supposed to stop on the street and talk to friends, they go to shop, then home, then children, then bed. If they behave very well they may be entitled to a soft drink at the weekend.

ok so the question was naively put but i still think worthy of a proper answer (unfortunately not from me) as soon as i saw the question the same thought crossed my mind (i was under the impression they wore them 24/7) yes in todays world we should be more aware of and learn more about other peoples faith culture etc but surely is not yahoo answers a good place to start !!!!!! there are many people who frequent this place with a wealth of variety in knowledge educate this person dont chastise them!!!!!!!

How do Christians recognize each other on the streets?
How do Buddhists recognize each other on the streets?
How do the Mormons recognize each other on the streets?
Where are you going with this.
Grow up, won't you and get a life.

The clothes may help tell each apart,
But true contrast is in the heart.

it doesnt matter if they dont recognise one another it is part of there religion and we should respect that. they are just trying to be friendly to one another and i think we should follow in there footsteps and not judge people because they walk differently, act differently or wear different clothes.
