‘Too upset and angry’: Muslim teen barred from top London school for wearing veil quits

[vK_man]

Which hypocrisy are you talking about?
It is not mentioned in the Quran anywhere. Islam does not require women to wear the veil, some just prefer to do so.
It is not as cumbersome as it looks like, its actually very thin and not ill logical in hot places.


Did you miss the part where the girl WANTS to wear it? How is that oppression? SHE WANTS TO WEAR THE VEIL. Does she want to oppress herself?

Feminist logic: She is indoctrinated to oppress herself by the males.

The school has strong feminist views.as stated in article.

 

[Dubious]

Go ahead ask the feminist movement their view on indecent clothing and niqab.

You will have the answer.

Indecent clothing is freedom according to them from male oppression .Utter madness.

modest clothing is male oppression

Niqab is extreme oppression by males.

My question is what happened after O levels? and esp when she is the same girl who sat for them in the same veil and many before her did the same....what suddenly pushed them to become biased?

 

[vK_man]

Don't distort his words. The girl is wearing a veil as she sees it as a religious obligation.



So naked women are being oppressed by the feminist matriarchy?

Feminist logic: naked women are liberated from male oppression. We have subdued the males. Yay.

My question is what happened after O levels? and esp when she is the same girl who sat for them in the same veil and many before her did the same....what suddenly pushed them to become biased?

Change in staff upper level. different views of feminists.

The last thing you should mess with is feminists.They can make life miserable.

Sums up the whole debate perfectly

Agreed .This seems to be the school view(left side)

"As she sees" as a religious obligation, but the school authorites see it is as an impediment in interaction or even a security risk, or even potential to be targeted because of the current political environment.

The school did what it felt was right, the girl is free to go to the court and plead for her case, because that is an available option, it's UK not saudi arabia afterall

Hence why questions were raised....they should have put it in black and white to clarify everything!

Did you read what you have written? This is the reason, It is hard to find a learned Muslim with open mind. You may deny but it is combursome to wear from top to bottom and Being black (most of the places) abosrb heat.

I am not expert but you may read yourself Surah an-Nur ayah 31 and Surah al-Ahzab ayah 59 which states covering women from head to toe and only display beauty to Husband.

Did you miss the part where the girl WANTS to wear it? How is that oppression? SHE WANTS TO WEAR THE VEIL. Does she want to oppress herself?

Why only Muslim girls want to wear it? Why not girls from all the world. It is an identity issue if not security.Period! No need to shout.

Their school, their rules. Don't like the rules? Go elsewhere. Simple.

Exactly , good decision by the girl.

 

[Hiptullha]

"As she sees" as a religious obligation, as the schoole authorites see it is as an impediment in interaction or even a security risk, or even potential to be targeted because of the current political environment.

And you repeat what half the other people have been saying this thread.
I understand that, just pointing out how you completely distorted that fellow's statement.

Surah an-Nur ayah 31 and Surah al-Ahzab ayah 59 which states covering women from head to toe

Actually it doesnt state that....it just says cover yourselves...

‘Too upset and angry’: Muslim teen barred from top London school for wearing veil quits — RT UK

A Muslim teenager who had been banned from school for wearing an Islamic face veil said that she was too ‘upset, hurt and angry’ to go back, despite the support of cover a thousand of her fellow students.

The 16 year old, who was due to start her A level exams this year, was told by the prestigious Camden School for Girls that her decision to wear the Islamic veil went against the schools’ dress code, and that staff would not be allowed to teach her unless she removed it.

Speaking to the London Evening Standard, the girl said that the face veil should not be seen as “un-British”.

“I was born in Britain. I know perfect English, I enjoy doing the normal, typical things like drinking tea and eating biscuits. Britain claims to be multicultural, meaning they accept different kinds of people.”

“To be honest a lot of people at the school wear inappropriate clothing — inappropriate as in very provocative and revealing clothing like extremely short shorts — so it didn’t make sense that they were refusing me to wear the niqab” she said.

The girl will continue her studies at a different sixth form college, which is located further away from her home.

“I’ve been going to Camden for five years yet they were so dismissive but a school that I’d never even heard of were so ready to welcome me. There are even other students who wear the niqab” she said.

Camden School for Girls was named as one of the top 100 in the country by schools minister David Laws last year, and has a number of prominent alumni.

Sorry we let your father in. Time to go back to Saudi Arabia. We are not comfortable with you. Please remember here you were not allowed in but If you were a Christian in Pakistan, you would be accused of blasphemy and shot by the prison guard.

What??? You should do that, my religion and my conscience forbids it so I can't, but you go ahead.
Off topic, trolling and brainless accusations, all at the same time!
Unless it's sarcasm, in that case I'm fine with it (though thats some really horrible sarcasm right there)

Interpretations are different but these are the 2 reasons, Niqab/Hijab is in place today so it is religious obligation, may be made up by some.

Hijab is covering the head, Niqab is covering the head. The former is required in Islam, the latter isn't.
