It just advices women to use the hijab as an act of obedience to God. Secondly, women wearing hijabs become a very visible sign of Islam. While Muslim men can blend easily into any society, Muslim women are often put on the line and forced to defend not only their decision or not to cover their bodies but also their religion. Thirdly, women who use the hijab lose their identity as women because they cannot dress appropriately according to their gender. It is not certain that the hijab frees women from being seen as sexual objects of desire or from being valued for their looks or body shape.
People usually discuss Hijab in the context of women. However, the Qur’an first mentions the Hijab (dress code) for the men before Hijab (dress code) for the women: “Enjoin the believing men t lower their gaze and guard their modesty; that is chaster for them. Surely, Allah is well aware of their actions.” Then the Hijab for women is mentioned in the next verse. “Likewise, enjoin the believing women to lower their gaze and guard their modesty; not to display their beauty and ornaments except what normally appears thereof; let them dare their veils over their bosoms and not display their adornment except to their husbands, fathers, fathers-in-law, their sons, stepsons, brothers nephews on either brothers or sisters side, their womenfolk, their own slaves, male attendants who lack sexual desires or small children who have no carnal knowledge of women. Also enjoin them not to strike their feet in order to draw attention to their hidden trinkets.
But some people with the entrenched mindsets make religion an excuse to prevent driving .It does not say any thing in Qur’an about that . So religion can not be blamed for women’s lack of rights . The Qur’an does order us to do things . One example for that , is wearing a costume for the women to cover her against foreigners and that is called an Abaya . This costume ( Abaya ) has been known from long time in the Islamic world .
Did your Islamic religion change the way you and the people around you viewed the war? I notice the different types of clothing, traditional or Western, play an important role in how you are viewed because you can express yourself through what you wear. Did the Western type clothing give you or any other women a sense of individuality and respect? 4. Why does the young Fatima prefer to wear her Tunisian clothes to the Western dresses her mother likes her to wear?
This opinion is made due to the ignorance of the Muslim religion. Muslim women use this dress code not only for religious purposes but for moral conduct as well. There are several parts to the Muslim women dress code. The dress cover that the Muslim women wear is called a Hijab. It’s also called the veil, purdah or just a head covering.
Just because they’re covering the whole body, doesn’t mean that they’re terrorist, right? This is what the Quran tells us to do. As muslim women, we have rights to cover the whole body to prevent sexual harassment. We don’t wear short skirts, because we know how men will judge us, how they will seduce us, how they will look at us. That’s why Allah tells us not to expose our body.
Similarly, source 3 suggests that women should know their place and not seek for ‘anything higher’. This could be referring to women wanting to be able to voice their opinion by voting or at least having a say in decisions regarding their family, however they were not seen as clever enough to do so. On the other hand, source 1 says that ‘to soften each other’ a man and a woman have to ‘unite’, which could perhaps mean marriage and children. The phrase ‘soften each other’ portrays a couple as equal partners with different, but equally as important, features that make a marriage work. In the same way, source 2 says that because of the differences ‘it is impossible to
* In many of the Muslim countries, it is not only the woman who have barely any rights, but also the men are treated the same.

But in the west this statement is misinterpreted which shows specific issues and differences.
Also, if someone doesn’t eye contact while having a conversation it may be considered rude. Many people will take this as a sign that they weren’t interested, and consider it as a distraction. In the Middle East, many cultures make prolonged eye-contact in conversations. However, there are strict gender rules such as women cannot eye-contact men for a long time, or else it’ll be misunderstood as a romantic interest. Acute eye-contact means truthfulness and means sincerity.

In the article “The many faces....” the attitude towards wearing a hijab is discussed through a muslim womans eyes.
