The imbecile “leaders” of the so called Muslim countries prohibiting the wearing of hijab in their stupid believe that only half-naked women could be active in the economic sector will only cause talented and skilled young muslim women who want to pursue their career whilst also wearing the hijab to flee to the West.

When will despotic “muslim” leaders ever learn that there is such a thing as individual rights? Also that one does not have to be secular to be productive? I know loads of professional women in London who wear the Hijab.

My flatmate, an architect, always goes to interviews in hijab and has never had problems with it. She is incredibly talented, never misses salat or Halaqah and her bosses always say her work is outstanding. And she, like me, came from the developing world. I do financial mathematical modelling and people don’t treat me any differently b/c I wear hijab.

Ah, Tunisia, one of our(USA’s) best friends in the Arab/Islamic world. When I see stuff like this I know why!

The kafirs will only only love you when you abandon your religion for thiers. Nuff said!

Salaam alaikum, He can’t be serious, can he? Or maybe he is that ignorant and only knows about the last 50 years of Tunisian culture.

Oh, thank you for the recommendation for the Brass Crescent Award

What a fascist.And walking round in butt tight jeans is hardly traditional, either, but let’s forget that shall we? The traditional Tunisian dress which is a white sheet with a few stitches worn over the body and head of women is impractical and doesn’t provide sufficient coverage so I can understand religious women abandoning it in favour of other Arab styles.
