I believe women are free to choose to dress as they wish inshaallah. If a woman feels she is more closer to Allah by covering her face, then inshaAllah, it should be ok. Furthermore, the spirit of multiculturism in Canada will be affected negatively if the niqab is banned in schools.
...but for some reason people find a piece of cloth more threatining.....yh what a joke
***** قال ابن أبي مليكة : أدركت ثلاثين من أصحاب النبي - صلى الله عليه وسلم - كلهم يخاف النفاق على نفسه
Ibn Abī Mulaykah said: "I encountered thirty Companions of the Prophet, every one of them fearing hypocrisy for himself." [Muslim]
I see. Muslims are seen as a threat because a few so-called muslims committed an act of violence. That makes perfect sense. Lets judge all muslims without knowledge! *rolls eyes*
Well it's the way it goes. never been an incident where a Sikh has attacked anyone.
As for banning, well it won't occur.
salaam
so you mean all Sikhs are perfect law abiding people? And not one of them has ever attacked anyone...? surely there are criminals in every community..??
wa salaam

Two kinds of Sikhs - practicing and non-practicing
If you're baptised (have taken the Nectar of the Double Edged sword) then you're a Khalsa (Pure) and that person will have uncut hair refrain from eating meat. Drinking alcohol and smoking.
You have to be in a higher state of mind. to Wear the Kirpan (Sword)
Not any tom dick or harry can wear one. and as I say, you have to fit the above criteria. So, don't think a Sikh with uncut hair can carry one. That is sacrilege
Ėk Gusā Alhu Mėrā
The One Lord, the Lord of the World, is my God Allah.
Dhan Guru Arjan Dev Mahraaj Ji!
Kal Meh Bėḏ Atharbaṇ Hū Nā Kẖuḏā Alhu Bẖa.
In the Dark Age of Kali Yuga, the Atharva Veda became prominent; Allah became the Name of God.
i always fout niquab wasnt compulsory in islaam? well thats what this websites taught me
Blessed, blessed is that tongue, O my soul, which sings the Glorious Praises of the Lord God.
Sublime, pure and pious is that head, O my soul, which falls at the Lords Feet.
Nanak is a sacrifice to those, O my soul, who hear of the Lord, and believe in the Lord's Name.
is there evidence from scriptures that niquab must be worn?

There are guidelines in the Scripture for modest dress, of which the niqab is designed to address. According to the Holy Quran, the woman should draw her veil up above and over her head, therefore covering her face.
O Prophet! Tell thy wives and daughters, and the believing women, that they should cast their outer garments over their persons (when abroad): that is most convenient, that they should be known (as such) and not molested. And Allah is Oft- Forgiving, Most Merciful. (33:59)
So it doesnt exactly have to be niqab, it can be like the famous Afghan style blue burqa with the net over the eyes.
