Muslim girl ejected from tournament for wearing hijab

[England]

Well why would you do that when you will get called on it. wouldnt it cost you the game?.. like for example.. its like the last 5 mins of the game and a girl comes and yanks off the other players hijab. The hijabi then take the penlty shot gets it in.. then you try hard to win the game but then the hijabi girl team win. Its like in basketball you foul some1 it would cost you the game.. soo why would you keep on pulling it just to catch up to some1

Getting a penalty depends on the position she is fouled in.
Say this hijab girl takes the ball past you and she is head on goal with you trying to catch up. You would pull her back, to prevent her from scoring. Who cares if it's a free kick? It wasn't a goal. She got away with it...
It happens.

OK.. but there are other ways to pull a girl back hold on to her wrist and pull her back.. soo why would some1 want to use her hijab to pull her back?

So you admit that you cannot prove me wrong. Then why do you come up with conclusions that the hijab can be harmful?



Well that will always be against the rules and is a red card offense. Maybe we should now wear chest guards in fear of head butts to the chest??

Do you know precautionary measures are? It prevents risks turning into a hazard. You need to assess risks in every sport that's played. Common sense. Too soon...

By that same logic, we shouldn't permit anybody with long hair to play football.

I agree it's too soon to make any form of judgment. However, maybe you disagree, since you applaud the rule.

It's not a case of WANTING to pull at her hijab, it's a case of instinct. Players get their collars pulled, they even get their shorts pulled... why would a guy want to pull at another guy's shorts?

Hmm.,. true but still.. You should not band the hijab from playing a sport... i think it is the weirdest rule ive ever heard..

That is why they should maybe wear these types of hijab:

Many hijabs are secured with VELCRO
That means if it is pulled on it will come off not strangle you!!!!!

Where can you get those type of hijabs?

I totally agree with you. Women should wear their hair up.

It's too soon to judge but the risks should be observed and looking at the risk of a hijab that is wrapped around someones neck I believe the Canadian rule is correct.

I wonder how the body doesnt show its shapes in a football match, I mean it does with men, and they have less to show, I really would find it amazing.

Wow. That kind of looks like something out of 'Speed Racer'.

England, have you been listening to what Muslim women who wear the hijab have had to say on this issue? When worn sensibly, the hijab isn't an issue of concern. You won't get strangled by it unless you purposefully tighten it around somebodies neck like a rope.

 

[Islam_sister]

exactly..

 

[Curious girl2]

Where can you get those type of hijabs?

You can order them from here sis http://www.thehijabshop.com/capsters/index.php

I have wondered about the hijab. What are the specifics for what is considered a head covering? Could western head coverings still be considered hijab or head covering in compliance with the rules of Islam? For instance, could a Muslim wear a hoodie sweater and as long as she doesn’t remove said hood, be in compliance with Islam?

I know the debate is about the girls right to wear hijab but if her deen is that important then what she doing playing soccer in a pair of shorts in the first place - not forgetting to mention in the presence of a male referee and spectators. The mind boggles.


p.s. I checked out the team's strip.. and yes they all wear shorts.
