should hijabs and burqas be banned at stores?, page-81

Australia’s most senior Islamic cleric — an extremist — sparked uproar when he described women without head scarves as “uncovered meat” inviting sexual attack.

In Turkey, scarves are banned in civic spaces, including schools, universities - state or private - and official buildings.

France banned the veil — along with other forms of religious dress — from public schools. Several German states have banned teachers from wearing veils, and in one state the ban also applies to all civil servants.

Several countries are grappling with such questions as to whether or not to allow Muslim women to be veiled in their passport– or driving license photographs.
