Re: More importance !! another voting on BBC : Should the veil be banned?
thanks to those who answered. it is more complicated than i thought.
everytime i just think i know something - poof!
syilla,
your article was interesting.
since the ban is against the face covering and it is for security reasons, this might come under
This is an important distinction in Islamic Law. Things that are prohibited in their own right cannot be permitted except in cases of dire necessity (darûrah). For instance, a person may not drink wine. However, if that person is choking on something and can only find wine to save himself, he may drink it out of necessity. By contrast, things that are prohibited only because they can lead to other unlawful activities are allowed for any valid need (hâjah).
since i don't live in u.k. i didn't vote. but i can see it as a valid security issue, unlike banning the hijaab which i think is just plain wrong.
btw, for those like me, who find the various degrees of covering confusing, the link on the OP gives a link to pictures and explantions of hijaab, niqab, burka, al-amira and shayla (which i never heard of before), khimar and chador.
here's the link to the illustrations: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/shared/spl/h...ils/html/1.stm

Re: More importance !! another voting on BBC : Should the veil be banned?
If a man did desire the face of a women, then we can say that the women would be accountable for not wearing the veil - according to the majority.
Btw, waajib is an order by our Prophet :SAW:, which are seen as orders by God Indirectly
Fard are orders by God Directly.
Fight in the way of God, against those who fight against you, drive them out of the places they have drove you out, for persecution is worse than slaughter. Fight them, until persecution is no more, and Religion is for God. But if they stop, let there be no war.
Re: More importance !! another voting on BBC : Should the veil be banned?
Because they are jealous of the hijaabs bro! They don't like how we be so cool so smooth!

Re: More importance !! another voting on BBC : Should the veil be banned?
if we are going to ban this
we should also ban this
the Shpitzelach of hasidic women
as well as this
as well as this
nazarenos, participants who dress in robes and cone-shaped hoods to hide their identity.
because to me there is nothing as morally reprehensible as hypocrisy..
I am not sure why this is even a topic for a debate or a public vote?...
this doesn't concern anyone except she who is on a spiritual path!

Maybe everybody should be banned from wearing any clothes at all...
that would be an idea especially since are so thin textures so that you can see more through blouse or skirt than you would like to.
