At this point, I will say let her wear anything she likes. If someone that does not identify as a woman can be allowed on the pitch, then why would a woman be denied the opportunity to participate just because she doesn't dress like everyone else? Let her express herself as long as her dressing does not infringe on or jeopardize the ability of others to bring on their best game.

PS - I'm not a Muslim. I'm just trying to rationalize the whole shenanigan of inclusiveness.
I really don't understand these unnecessary attacks against the woman, simply because she wore a hijab that doesn't have any negative impact on any other person. This is just plain hate against Islam because it doesn't make any sense.

These unprovoked attacks are some of the reasons why Seun made it mandatory for people to swear before commenting in the Islamic section.

Now go, attack the Amalekites and totally destroy everything that belongs to them. Do not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle ...

Luke 19:27
“But those enemies of mine who did not want me to be king over them—bring them here and kill them in front of me.”

Quoting Luke 19:27 the Word of God out of contest to suit you is one of the worst thing to do in life. This verse is from a parable Jesus was telling his followers about a hidden talent. The great difference between Christians and Moslems is that we don't fight for our God cos he is the creator of the whole World. So my dear disease from this act and repent cos it a fearful thing to fall into the hands of God cos no one can save you.

Morocco defender Nouhaila Benzina has made history by becoming the first player to wear a hijab at a World Cup.

The 25-year-old wore the Islamic headscarf as she made her first appearance at the tournament in her side's 1-0 win over South Korea.

The wearing of head coverings for religious reasons was authorised by Fifa in 2014.

Morocco are one of eight teams making their debut at this summer's Women's World Cup.


Benzina, who plays her club football in Morocco, is the first player to wear a hijab at a senior women's international tournament.

She was an unused substitute during her country's opening game against Germany, which they lost 6-0.
What kind of hypothetical way of living is this? I thought they were supposed to cover their body completely so that their shapes are not exposed to outsiders? This is what I know about hijab. A true Muslim knows that this is just a show.

I am a Muslim ardent lover of football but this is a dumb innovation that will make women football unpleasant to watch.
FIFA had better think again and rescind the decision to allow females wear hijabs.
Football plus hijab is a stupid combo.
If you are so religious as to need to wear hijab all the times, then playing football is not for you.
Football or hijab? Choose one and stick to it.
Shut up.
Gather yourselves and go to FIFA headquarters to protest. Football and hijab have come to stay, let he or they who are not satisfied continue wailing till second coming of Jesus. PREIOD.

Not having enough intelligence to question a male chauvinist Islamic doctrine which states that woman should cover head, if not, another man will go after the woman.
Foolishness of order and Foolishness in still obeying the order, that's what this woman displays in the pitch.
By the way, football is not Islamic culture. Why would she play football?
Let the wailing continues till second coming of Jesus.

Football and competitive sports are not for muslims who want to wear religious dresses. She could play because Australia is cold at this time. What happens at other time when the host nation is in hot season? FIFA would the provide them air conditioned stadium?

Inclusiveness does not connote stupidity. FIFA should just stick to top Jersey and shorts to avoid issues. If you cannot play with such, just leave and go and do kùlè
Wailing or complaining? Hijab and women football have come to stay.

Somebody wore a short with leggings but then wore an hijab. To what purpose? I would assume hijab served three purposes in Arab communities;
-to guard against durst storms and other harsh weather.
- to hide the body curves of the lady.
- and for aesthetic purpose

Doesn’t Religion look out of place in our world sometimes?

The entire game should be forbidden to them, according to their religion. She shouldn't even be on the pitch
