New Series: The Evolution of Hijab | The Headscarf & Dress of Muslim Women | Dr. Shabir Ally

Protests have organically sprung from Iran to the globe after 22-year-old Mahsa Amini died after being detained by Iran's “morality police,” who determined she had incorrectly worn her headscarf. While Iran has had many protests for more rights and freedom, this one is different, mainly led by teenage schoolgirls. ⭕️Watch in-depth videos based on Truth & Tradition at Epoch TV

Protests began erupting across Iran in late September following the death of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini, who was arrested in Tehran by morality police. Amini, who was visiting Tehran with her family, was arrested for not wearing her headscarf, and died in a hospital three days later. Her brother reports she was taken to a “re-education center” for not abiding by the state's hijab rules and was beaten there. State police say Amini died from a heart attack, but her family insists she had no heart issues and was beaten to death by the police. Massive demonstrations began at Amini's funeral, and they continue to sweep across the country now five weeks later. Human rights monitors have reported hundreds dead, including children. As of a few days ago, the count is up to at least 233 Iranians dead, with 32 below the age of 18.To take a deeper look at what's happening right now in Iran, I invited my friend Laurie Meberg on to today's episode. Laurie lives in France and she has about 10 years of experience serving the Iranian church in different cities and capacities around the world. Laurie also grew up worshipping in a church with connections to the Iranian church, so she's been praying for the Iranian church and Persian Christians her whole life. Laurie shares the perspectives of her Iranian friends with us, as well as some ways we can be better informed, pray, and even protest from the other side of the world.

The Iranian athlete Elnaz Rekabi who competed in South Korea while not wearing a headscarf has returned to Tehran to a heroes welcome. Crowds gathered at the airport chanting her name and calling her a heroine. Rekabi was interviewed on Iranian state TV upon her return where she insisted she unintentionally forgot to wear her head covering and denied reports she had been uncontactable. Iran continues to be gripped by protests against compulsory hijab laws and the government. BBC Persian's Siavash Ardalan spoke to Corin Dann.

Trending Middle East brings you the latest social media and search trends from the Middle East and around the world. On today's episode, in an apparent act of defiance, Iranian rock climber Elnaz Rekabi competes without a headscarf at the Asian Sport Climbing Championships. Media reports differ as to where Rekabi is now after the event in South Korea.   President Abdel Fattah El Sisi says Egypt is determined to do everything it can to resolve its dispute with Ethiopia over the potential effect from a hydroelectric dam Addis Ababa is building on the Nile. Cairo has long complained that the dam would reduce its share of the Nile waters.   An archaeological park unveiled in northern Iraq this week dates back more than 2,700 years to the rule of the Assyrians. The area in Faida comprises 13 monumental rock-carving reliefs in the walls of an irrigation canal. The carvings show kings praying to gods.   Saudi Arabia's King Salman said that Iran must co-operate with the International Atomic Energy Agency and the global community if it wants to revive the 2015 nuclear deal. Efforts to save the accord have faced several stumbling blocks, including Iran's continued nuclear advances and the recent crackdown on protesters.

Protests have convulsed Iran for three weeks and counting, following the death in police custody of young Kurdish woman Masha Amini. It's compulsory for women in Iran to cover their heads, but these protests are about much more than headscarf rules.

“In that moment, I was not, as a journalist or as a woman, going to put a headscarf on and somehow bind myself…” CNN's chief international anchor Christiane Amanpour discusses the recent protests in Iran following the death of a 22-year-old woman who was detained by the morality police for showing her hair, the qualms Iranian women have with the government, and how the people of Iran want a democracy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Muslim Women Denied Firearm Licenses in South Africa Due To Their Headscarf by Radio Islam

Have you heard of Nubia from the DC comic books? She's the adopted sister of Wonder Woman and is DC's first Black superwoman introduced in the 70s before disappearing from comics for decades. Nubia returned last year in the new comic book Nubia: Real One, which is set in modern day America and tells the story of her teenage life. Anita talks to the cartoonist, Robyn Smith who illustrated the book about the importance of representing Black women and their stories in comics. Next week, Justyna Wydrzynska from Poland will be the first pro-choice activist to appear in court, charged with breaking the country's strict abortion law. On the 27th January 2021 Poland enforced an near-total abortion ban. It is now only allowed in cases of rape or incest or when the pregnancy threatens the life of the mother. Justyna provided miscarriage-inducing tablets to a pregnant woman. Unlike in other countries where abortion is banned, women in Poland are not criminalised for illegal termination of pregnancy; instead it is those who order or carry out an abortion that face penalties. Anita is joined by Justyna and Dr Sydney Calkin, from Queen Mary University. Are you familiar with parasocial relationships? It's a psychological term to describe when someone thinks they have a friendship or bond with a person they have never met before or spoken to face-to-face. The most common parasocial dynamic exists between celebrities and their fans. But is it healthy? And do women often pay the price? Anita explores this with Gretchen Roberts, a psychotherapist whose clients include influencers and vloggers, and Flossie Clegg - a YouTuber and Digital Content Creator with over 700,000 subscribers. Ramadan begins this weekend. It's the month when Muslims refrain from eating or drinking between dawn and sunset to give more time for self-reflection, prayer and identify with the hungry. Statistics from Dubai show that women spend twice as much time in the kitchen during this time in Muslim communities around the world, which is a paradox given that it's also a time of eating less. Much of the pressure comes from the preparation of the Iftar meals which end each day of fasting; an important time for families and communities to come together in homes and mosques. To discuss the issues are Shelina Janmohamed, Vice President of Islamic Marketing at Ogilvy and best selling author of Love in A Headscarf, and journalist and broadcaster Remona Aly.

A ban on headscarves in schools has become the latest flashpoint on minority rights in India. Muslim and Hindu students have faced off in the southern state of Karnataka, after female muslim pupils wearing religious veils were barred from class. Is this simply a religious issue, or a broader debate on identity in India? Join host Mohammed Jamjoom.

Girls on Fire says the South African Police must come forward and explain why a Johannesburg woman was refused a firearm licence because she wore a headscarf. Maleeka Sayed said she wanted the licence for self-defence as she is mostly at home looking after her children and elderly parents during the day, while her husband is away at work.

A controversial law banning Islamic headscarves and other religious symbols from French state schools came into effect in 2004. The ban was designed to maintain France's tradition of strictly separating state and religion. It resulted in many Muslim girls being excluded from the classroom. Farhana Haider has been speaking to Ndella Paye a Muslim mother and activist who campaigned against the law.

In this discussion, we cover some key terms from Bucar's book, such as what Pious Fashion is, why it might be defined that way, and how it helps further a conversation about Muslim women beyond the veil. We discuss the differences in performing fieldwork for this project in Iran, Indonesia, and Turkey. Connecting this research to Islamophobia and Muslim experience in America, Liz Bucar reflects on how modesty has become more mainstream.

Some Muslim women cover their heads, and some don’t—either way, they get asked questions. Elena and Harv speak to writer and entrepreneur Mariam Nouser about her experiences both wearing and not wearing a hijab. Also, journalist Amira Elghawaby tells us why she might actually like to hear more questions about her headscarf from strangers.

Hodesjalets kulturelle, religiøse og politiske betydning har skapt en aktiv samfunnsdebatt i den vestlige verden de siste årene. Mange har ulike meninger angående religiøse hodeplagg som hijab, men hvordan er det å bruke religiøse klesplagg i et sekulært vestlig land for individet som faktisk bærer plagget? Kan måten Norge og andre land håndterer denne situasjonen på fortelle oss noe om oss selv? I samarbeid med Bergen Resource Centre CMI/UiB presenteres et panel med dyp kompetanse innenfor akkurat dette emnet. De er alle forfattere av boken “The politics of the headscarf in the United States” som omhandler mye av denne problemstillingen i USA. Innledere: - Sarah Tobin, økonomisk antropolog med ekspertise innen Islam og kjønn i Midtøsten. Hun er forfatter av monografien “Everyday Piety: Islam and economy in Jordan”, og er seniorforsker ved CMI. - Aubrey Westfall, assisterende professor i statsvitenskap ved Wheaton College Massachusetts. Hun er spesialisert innenfor sammenliknende politikk og internasjonale relasjoner. - Özge Çelik Russell, assisterende professor i statsvitenskap ved Gazi Üniversitesi i Tyrkia. Hun har spesialisert seg innenfor politisk teori og politisk deltakelse med hovedfokus på kvinners rettigheter, politisk handling, og valgdeltakelse.

Once the Arab Spring kicked into high gear in 2011, the Egypt tourism numbers took a nose dive. Concerns about safety and instability were the norm until 2015 or so. On the other hand in the years since, there has been an uptick in travelers keen to see the pyramids, the Nile and the Valley of the Kings.

Serbian winters, however, are very cold. That's why Diane tries to go somewhere warm every winter. Last year it was Peru, and this year she decided on some Egypt travel. Diane is a passionate backpacker, but she is no ordinary backpacker. For example, for this Egypt holiday, she went over 7 months pregnant. And that's with her 7-year-old daughter and new husband. Why Holiday in Egypt? Why Travel in Egypt Today? When I asked Diane why she chose to travel in Egypt, she said she wasn't exactly sure why. That said, her daughter is fascinated by bones, and Egypt today has some of the most famous bones in the world. "What kid doesn't love mummies and pyramids?" she asks. In addition, she explains, places like Egypt are completely embedded in popular culture. There's something interesting about seeing them with your own eyes. Is Egypt Safe? When Diane told people that she planned to travel in Egypt, the most common question was "Is Egypt safe?" The question shows an inability to see the bigger picture. "I would be more scared in New York City or Belgium right now, " she says, referring to recent acts of terror that happened near the time we spoke. But seriously: is Egypt safe? By most standards it is. That said, Diane says that you still need to take precautions and avoid certain places. For example, her family avoided Sinai area, because of reports of unrest. She also skipped a trip to a specific desert near the Libyan border due to reports of trouble. In addition, they avoided Christian landmarks and areas, which are often where trouble might appear. In some places, she explains, there are tourist police waiting for travelers to appear. They will escort you through the area, or simply tell you to move on. Pickpockets in Egypt Today Their biggest concern during their travel in Egypt today was pickpockets. Petty theft is a problem from Brighton to Barcelona to Baltimore, but one must be prepared for it. Diane talks about how they handle money and reveals a clever hiding spot for her debit card. Traffic in Cairo Another safety concern was simply crossing the road. Crosswalks were few and far between in Cairo, she explains. Yet when they did find a crosswalk, their light never turned green. This meant a lot of running across major roads whenever there was a pause in the traffic. "Even to get to Egyptian Museum you have to cross a highway," she says. As a pregnant woman with a young daughter and a husband who walks with a cane, this can be dangerous. Enter Uber. Ride-sharing apps like Uber and local service Careem makes a huge difference in Egypt today, says Diane. The Cairo metro system is completely usable, she says, and worth trying at least once. That said, ride-sharing apps are ideal for many situations. Why? Because they give you door-to-door service and the price is fixed. Taxis are doable as well, she explains, but be prepared to haggle a bit. Hotels in Egypt Today Diane and her family mostly stayed in "hostels," but they weren't the kind of youth hostels you may think of. For example, most of them were just private rooms, and they didn't get to meet other travelers like they had hoped. That said, if you want to stay in a hotel in Egypt, you shouldn't have a problem. There are plenty of rooms available as Egypt Tourism numbers are still in recovery. In 2010 there were nearly 15 million tourists. By 2016 than number plummeted to less than 4 million, but Egypt travel numbers have been on the rise since. Things to Do in Egypt Today   Diane filled her Egypt travel itinerary full of great activities. Some were conventional and some were not. For example, she and her daughter spent two days in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. They also took a boat tour of the Nile, complete with buffet meal and bellydancers. In addition, they went to Luxor and the Valley of the Kings. But they didn't actually visit the Valley of the Kings. Instead, they went to the less populated "Valley of the Artisans" for a unique experience. Her tips and thought on the area in the podcast. That's not the only unique experience they discovered in their Egypt travels. They also visited the ancient village of Tunis, known for its pottery. Then they drove into the desert to see whale skeletons. Yes, whale skeletons in the desert. The entire area was once a sea, and the massive bones are the last indication of what was once a vast sea.

Nasim Aghdam might not be a terrorist, but from the headscarf to the police not taking her in, to terrorists recruiting women… there are many intriguing angles to the story that relate to terrorism. Nasim Aghdam might not be a terrorist, but from the headscarf to the police not taking her in, to terrorists recruiting women… there are many intriguing angles to the story that relate to terrorism. Have you ever noticed that when shootings or vehicle rammings or other incidents occur, that have a similar pattern to past terror attacks, the so-called authorities are quick to point out that it is not terrorist-related before they could possibly have investigated? They are especially careful to not give out the name, if it sounds middle-Eastern, or show a photo of the perpetrator, if they look middle-Eastern. A few of the earliest reports of Nasim Aghdam mentioned that she was wearing a headscarf, but all future reports deleted it, for fear of being considered politically incorrect. The police, warned by Nasim’s family that she was missing and angrily heading to YouTube, found her asleep in a parking lot near its headquarters, but didn’t arrest her or take her to an emergency room for a psychiatric evaluation, though clearly her mental illness would have been obvious during their chat. Why? If it had been a Caucasian woman born in America, they likely would have taken custody of her - for her own protection, if not the protection of YouTube employees. But, the police, too afraid of being considered racist or Islamophobic, let her go free to commit an attack, wounding 3 people and killing herself. (Nasim was Persian, but not Muslim).

On this episode we review the Court's decision in EEOC v. Abercrombie & Fitch Stores. Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 makes it illegal for an employer “to fail or refuse to hire or to discharge any individual, or otherwise to discriminate against any individual with respect to his compensation, terms, conditions, or privileges of employment, because of such individual’s * * * religion.” "Religion” includes “all aspects of religious observance and practice” unless “an employer demonstrates that he is unable to reasonably accommodate” a religious observance or practice “without undue hardship on the conduct of the employer’s business.” The question presented in this case was whether an employer can be liable under Title VII for refusing to hire an applicant or discharging an employee based on a “religious observance and practice” only if the employer has actual knowledge that a religious accommodation was required and the employer’s actual knowledge resulted from direct, explicit notice from the applicant or employee.

In early 1990s, Turkey was the only Muslim country where a headscarf ban in schools, universities and public institutions took place. In the aftermath of 9/11, in Western countries pious Muslim women experienced a troubling exclusion from the public sphere in the name of secularism, democracy, liberalism, and women's rights. Meanwhile, domestic courts and international courts such as the European Court of Human Rights, are increasingly influenced by social pressures concerning immigration, rejection of multiculturalism, and by attitudes expressed via Islamophobia, the ‘war on terror,’ and ‘homeland security.’ As a result, many Western governments have failed to recognize and protect essential individual freedoms in relation to Muslim women and public discussion is still going on various form of Islamic attire. While exclusion of pious women from public spaces is spreading in many countries where Muslims are a minority, the Turkish headscarf case continued a politico-legal battle among lawyers, judges, and politicians in Turkey. Recently, the Turkish government’s long awaited reforms on human rights gave a relative comfort to headscarf use in universities and public offices, current political turmoil makes future of the debate unpredictable. Elver argues that law can be used to change underlying social conditions shaping the social contract, role of religion, and the position of women in modern society. Hilal Elver is a Research Professor in Global Studies and Co-director of the Project on Climate Change, Human Security and Democracy at the University of California, Santa Barbara.
