Muslim Woman refusing to remove Niqab in France sentenced to 2 Years Jail

[Karachiite]

Today two news caught my attention:
1-France jails a woman for 2 years against her freedom.
2-Saudi Arabia to allow women into football stadiums and is building it's first arts university.

You see how the world works??

Looks like you forgot to mention this piece of news
BBC News - Ethiopian Christians to be deported from Saudi Arabia

Whether it is against freedom of choice or not has been argued already.
I believe it is against freedom to stop somebody from wearing what he/she wants.

But this has been made law already, so there should be no surprise in what happened.

I oppose UK govt's TV licence (yes you have to pay license fee in UK if you have tv), but I know what will happen if I refuse to pay.

I went to Paris recently and I saw many women wearing hijab with abaya's, so there aren't any restrictions to Muslim attire.

A full face veil aka niqab can be obstructive however and for the greater good of society, its better to ban it.

Islan doesn't ask for a women to have her faced covered completely too.

That is where we step into the realm of Women's civil rights. Burka is not obligatory within Islam but it is permissible.

I agree. But Is she really expressing freedom to wear what she want?
well someone the other say some lady from middle east, probably rights worker, said
It's funny how the women who have never been forced to wear a face veil today argue about the rights of women to wear one.

Are you a idiot? She wears it without being forced and is fighting for her rights to wear it. lol so because so some people are forced the majority should suffer? And because some are forced they should give up there rights to wear it?

Think a bit more next time.

Whats wrong is wrong so slavery should always be condemned but that doesn't mean everything else that happened in the Islamic empires was just as bad.

It's like saying because America opened gitmo or that Germany did the holocaust that nothing ever good came out of western civilisation.

you can praise the literature, Art but Comparing today's world with 10th century and calling it morally/culturally/civility superior on the basis of that is what i take offense at. We have been making progress. That's a fact. Rest is romanticism associated with History.

Did you care to think that perhaps she is a French citizen and has every right to protest?

She can protest all she wants as long as she does not break the laws of the country and she is clearly breaking the law. I'm pretty sure if I walked on the streets of Jeddah with my junk hanging out, I would be arrested and possibly given the death penalty. And it's perfectly ok since it's the law of the country. Does not matter if she is a citizen or an immigrant.

This how French Muslim women are protesting at the ban.

Good job at trolling the Vice Lord of trolls.

 

[cyphercide]

It's the law of the country. If you can't follow it then please pack your bags and take the next flight out of the country. Is that so hard to understand?

So Muslims are the de facto Jews of this century who should be pack their bags just because the state doesn't appreciate who they are or what they represent?You need to understand not every Muslim is the fresh-off-the-boat immigrant.They pay their taxes like everybody else,why should they be kicked out?

But FRANCE is a liberal democrazy.

Yeah saying it's better is a different thing altogether but thats not what you said in your initial post.

Can someone find a credible source because the OP has used something unreliable.

Until then closed.

Send me an alternative and I will open it again.
