I want to hear your personel opinion Thank You!!!!

The Holy Quran : Chapter: 7 Al-A`raf, Verse:27

O children of Adam, We have indeed send down to you raiment to cover you nakedness and to be a means of adornment; but the raiment of righteousness - that is the best. That is of the commandments of God, that they may remember.

The Holy Quran : Chapter: 24 (Al-Nur) The Light, Verse:32

And say to the believing women that they restrain their looks and guard their private parts, and that they display not their beauty or their embellishment except that which is apparent thereof, and that they draw their head-coverings over their bosoms, and that they display not their beauty or their embellishment save to their husbands, or to their fathers, or the fathers of their husbands, or their sons, or the sons of their husbands, or their brothers or the sons of their brothers, or the sons of their sisters, or women who are their companions, or those that their right hands possess, or such of male attendants as have no desire for women, or young children who have not yet attained knowledge of the hidden parts of women. And that they strike not their feet so that what they hide of their ornaments may become known. And turn ye to God all together, O believers, that you may prosper.

Muslims are not just arabs there are Muslims in holland that are whites europeans were do you want them to go it is their country.

Answer 1

Holland has joined the ranks of Saudi Arabia and Iran by mandating by law how a woman is to dress. It is a sad day for women's rights.

Holland's real agenda is to get devout Muslims out of the country, or at least discourage more from coming. Holland is 6% Muslim now, and many Dutch people think that is enough, especially after the Theo van Gogh murder, but they can't be honest about it because that would sound too much like discrimination. So they've come up with this roundabout way of doing it.

Answer 2

No, it's not a human rights issue. It is a public clothing issue. If I wore clear plastic bags wrapped around my body as clothing, I would be arrested. And there is no way I could say it is a violation of my human rights.

I don't know much about Holland but I would guess it is some form of parliamentary democracy or elected republic. This means the people have the right to govern themselves and establish law for their own country.

Holland is not an Islamic state, immigrants to host countries have to learn to assimilate to a new cultural standard. Immigrants and non-traditional peoples should NOT expect that their new country should bend to their ideas.

Muslims are not being forced to live in Holland. If they do not agree with the laws in that country they are free to get the laws changed or leave the country.

Now, let me say this .... if Holland were a traditional Islamic state, and they passed a law forbidding some form of traditional practice .... then yes, I think there might be an argument for that law being, in some way, against human rights.

Answer 3

ISLAMIC groups across Europe have campaigned for years for the right of Muslim women to wear the religious headscarf, or hijab. Now a Muslim woman in the Netherlands has won the right not to wear it.
Samira Haddad, 32, won her case against the Islamic College of Amsterdam, which insists that all Muslim women wear the hijab. The secondary school rejected her for a job after she said in an interview that she did not wear it.
Human Rights Article 18?

I know Holland is a very tolerant country but I also know Europe is getting Islam sensitive.

Answer 4

In this time of terrorism, people running around fully covered and not able to be identified is simply dangerous. It may be a woman's right to hide behind the hijab, but its also my right not to get blown up by some terrorist hiding behind a hijab. So I guess it depends on whose rights bear more weight, religious extremists or innocent people who happen to be in the wrong place when the terrorist hits. No offense to muslims, but its their own fault, if they'd attempt to control the extremists blowing people up, we wouldn't have to worry so much about it, but instead they say "how sad", but don't do a thing to stop their own people.

So basically, I think innoncent people have a right to go to a store, movie, restaurant, school or wherever, without having to constantly worry that the person hiding in the hijab might be a terrorist and blow the whole place up, which, as we all know too well, is what happens all too often.

Answer 5

Covering the face is not obligatory as the head cover. This fashion was introduced by extremists. I wear the head cover myself (just in case you think I'm against the hijab altogether).
Holland has the right to enforce security the way it deems it fit. A terrorist might dress as a woman covering his face with the explosive strap underneath.
If those woman (Muslim immigrants) cover their face due to their adherence to religion, they should live in a Muslim country. Pleasing God is more important than living in paradise of Europe while running away from harsh Muslim counties.

Answer 6

i have spoken 2 women who wear these burkas.
they're hell in the heat, dangerous in windy weather and murder in the rain. 2 cope with a child whilst wearing a tent isn't fun either.
it is impossible 2 make urself heard or understood and in some situations, renders the wearer almost invisible and ignorable. they r pressurised by their men-folk and i know it's not typical of all Muslim women but they really don't want 2 wear them.
it makes CCTV pointless and what assurances does any1 have that it is not a man in disguise.

Answer 7

Im a youthful Muslim female i imagine everyones were given all of it incorrect in recent times there are too many stereotypes In Islam there are as many rulings for adult men as women adult men have gown codes, adult men have breadwinning rulings and husband regulations yet lifestyle has given the effect that adult men have extra freedom believe me they dont Its lifestyle faith is amazingly truthful yet society is patriarchal [like the asian lifestyle] As a woman I placed on a headscarf sure and common outfits [denims, outfits, leggings] yet my mum wheres an finished outfit WHY: faith says MODESTY. interpretation helps individualism An previous female would say dont placed on denims! yet i'd say no modesty to me is distinct wish you get me :) faith purely supplies regulations to enable us ultimately make our personal values x

Answer 8

Where in the Koran does it state Islamic Women should wear the Hijab?.

Answer 9

I am going to answer your question with a story.

I live in Florida, USA.... This lady here tried to sue the state a few years ago to allow her to wear her Muslim head coverings in her state drivers license photo. You only be able to see her eyes!!!

Of course it was denied. Its for security. You can't risk the safety of a city, state or country because someone whats to be wrapped up like a mummy to shield their identity.

Answer 10

I guess so....but much less of a violation of human rights than that which was done to poor Theo Van Gogh, murdered by Muslim fanatics...
