Boko haram also wear military uniforms, i think the government should also think of banning wearing of military uniforms by soldiers. RUBBISH!

Trash . . . .Military uniform is not a general clothing, and you get severely punished if caught impersonating one . . . .

I guess evrone shud be banned from wearing shirts then since a suicide vest only requires a normal simple attire to cover it! I hope this responds well to ur analogy!
No my dear, but I like and respect your maturity.
Your response does not address the concerns I expressed. You see it is realistic to suspend the use of the full hijab for the sake of these security challenges we are facing but it is not realistic to ask people to go nude. What makes it even more complex is that the hijab is been associated with Islamic extremism, the kind that breeds terrorism. And then we are seeing suicide hijab concealing suicide bombers. People have good reason to be scared of the hijab wearing people because of these things.

Kindly reference the book or site you read it from.


And you claim to hold a masters degree?


What a shame. At this age and time a masters degree holder still believe the trash that Hijab --that is well known all over the world as a core muslim mode of dressing-- is the culture of some people in some region.


You people still do not get it.

Islam is more than a religion.

Islam is a culture, a tradition, a way of living life. Not just a religion you pick up anytime you like.

Islam tells you what to do, when to do it, how to do it reason why you should do it. In short, Islam is an Ideology that teaches how God wants us to live not how we want to live.


If you can't stand for something you will fall for anything


I stand for ISLAM


BTW Is the woman in the picture below also protecting herself from desert winds?

my brother does that mean if an evil is carried out with khaki. is banning it nw the solution to such problem, pls let us see dis from the right side.

capital YES. I remember some time ago Benin was overrun by armed robbers who dressed in army gear , thus there was Ban on CIVILIANS. wearing any form of camouflage.

in fact till this day if u wear camo soldier sight u , accost u and u not NDA or an army man then u will pull it off immediately (in front of everyone) .

they are not being banned from covering their face ... I think the ban is on the long hijab ( covering their whole body)
also BH suspects (male). use the veil to move around and scout areas so even a ban on face covering isn't going too far.

the women are not against it. ( I was friends with one in osun). it's the men who insist on it (I think it's a sub sect in Islam. that preaches it sha can't remember). after all nd chyke I been dey chyke the woman.
*only the married /engaged ones cover their face*

Excuse me, just asking is it also commanded by Allah to kill or behead or persecute those who don't believe in the ways of Islam? Is the Jihad commanded by Allah? I want to know because the answer to this question will give me a clearer picture of the magnitude of this global problem!

Who told you what Muslim ladies are thinking inside? You are not in their heads and you can't know what they secretly wish to wear hijabs or not.

I'm even surprised you know Cossy, Halima and Maheeda. So you enjoy looking at their breasts abi?
Their half-naked bodies give you stirrings in your D shey?
Later you will come on Nairaland and start spewing

Does banning hijab solve the insecurity problem. It devoids islamist of their religion acts.

What gets one aljanaat? Dressing? Where is that indicated.Even when did hijab become exclusively a religious admonition of Islam. A tradition that had been in existence among other tribes before Islam 'incorporated' it into their religion.

Banning of Hijab is impossible because those people wearing hijab are Nigerians that supposed to enjoy the right to freedom thought, believe and conscience, and I think no one is capable of depriving them their rights.

Islam as a religion has rules and regulations which every Muslim must adhere to. and in this rule, Allah (subhanahu wa ta'ala) told the Muslims through the prophet Muhammad (solallahu alehi wa salaam) in the glorious Qur'an that:

"O prophet, tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to bring down over themselves (part) of their outer garments. That is more suitable than they will be known and not be abused. And ever is Allah forgiven and merciful " (suratul Al-Ahzaab, verse 59).
That was what they understand and practice. please stop your condemnation.

Army uniform is an Identification and it wasn't ban after using for so many negative acts such as the abduction of the chibok girls.
police uniform not ban after several robberies . to mention but a few.
So people, please let us be rational.





Good!!

If I understood the passage well, is that a command or admonition. If it is a command does it mention how the task of covering the body should be done? e.g maybe it should cover to the feet or shoulder? Does it mean that those who do not cover their bodies ( covering from head to feet with their faces inclusive) are candidates of hell?

Some people are quick to defending religion reminding you of God's law as if they are adhering to them. Everyone is at risk here both churches and mosques therefore every means to reduce attack on us should be used in as much is not a criteria to getting to heaven.

please tell me how hijab is useful? Useful in the sense that we live in a desert? What are they covering? Are they too beautiful? You cannot compare the usefulness of a car to hijab. Wearing hijab is not useful, it is slavery of the mindset. People in arab countries where it because of there enviroment. This religion is one of the problems in nigeria. Christianity and islam. Especially the latter

This issue will bring problem in Nigeria.





My little understanding from reading is that it is a borrowed culture from other parts of the the world particularly the desert areas where "sand and dust storms" are prevalent as a way of protecting the face and body. I beleive that there are appropriate ways a Muslim lady can dress that can cover the body properly (ask Aisha buhari). We should not encourage extremism in the guise of religion.

I concur

Actually a lot of scholars who condemn and refute the extremists and terrorists confirm that the Hijab is compulsory
So if terrorists employ the Hijab, it is does not mean that it the same mindset. Terrorists will do anything that will aid their bloodlust
Note that terrorists have been known to hide messages in x-rated videos

Muslim women wear Hijab everyday, everytime and everywhere. Why do you think they are so devoted to something that is not convenient?
People ask for temporary suspension of Hijab without considering how the ladies feel about it
How do you feel about temporary suspension of prayers, obedience to God

The credibility problem that the anti-Hijab advocates have is that well before the issue of terrorism, they have been angling for its ban
Okere-Onyiuke moved to ban it on the Lagos floor of the Nig Stock exchange when she was DG, although you could wear baba n Riga and Hijab on the Kano floor of the same Exchange

Lagos public schools say you cannot use Hijab but the same schools organise Christmas carols

Well, it is against the right of wearers of hijab to ban their veil. It is an established fact that the hijab is worn through the personal choice of the wearer even if it is religiously influenced. As such, it falls under the right to personal liberty. Hijab can't be banned except the government can prove that their is a correlation between Hijab and suicide bombing...this will be pretty difficult.

. The op is just being biased, there is a deference between hijab and niqab or what ever they call it, a muslim woman can put on a hijab because it will close up to the shoulder or the arm instead of dressing like a masquerade all in the name of religion, it will be impossible to carry a bomb in a hijab, but you don't know what is going on under the so called niqab.

Just as the car is useful to users of motor vehicle, so is the hijab useful to its wearers. Saying 80% of suicide bombers are on hijab doesn't prove that the ban of hijab will end terrorism/suicide bombing. It also does not prove that hijab aid suicide bombing.

As for cars, the Abuja Police Headquarter suicide bombing(2012) was done with a car. The UN bombing also with a car. The recent Iyanya bombing in Abuja was also with a car. The bombs are transported through cars and other vehicles. Boko Haram move around with cars. So should usage of cars be banned?


That is because 95% of those car bombs are carried out by women wearing hijabs and it is. Difficult for the security to detect these at checkpoints... Shebi Nigerian police officers infrared eyes wey dey see wetin these Islam's hide for their cuntus
