I'm a muslim but i dont cover my face, I always wondered if you covered your face and you go out into public, what if you passed someone you know, but they didnt reconize you because they cant see your face???What would you do?

I have no problem with religion or whatever but Im particularly afraid of people wearing masks etc.
I get really panicked if someone approaches me or I see someone and I cant see their face. its just one of my little phobias.
I think that if its in a public place people should not cover their faces. Thats nothing against their religion - but in the Uk/USA, its not a cultural thing to cover your face - as it is for woman in other countries.
My friend had to visit Saudi Arabia and had to wear a burka type thing that covered her face - as thats what woman have to do there. I think people who come to the UK/USA etc should show that same type of respect and not cover their face.

i think that is the whole point of the covering your face. it deprives women of their identity as a woman and as a person. Hence, its the saudi arabian culture.
Islam and the quran tells us to cover as to not show off our bodies and attract extra attention, but this? this is WAY over the top!

It would be weird. Few wear the chador or burkha, it's a Western conception. Most wear the hijab.
