The question you should be asking is the school law rule against wearing of hijab, if not they should allow the Muslim students to wear the hijab unless otherwise. The school management should know the school rule than others but it seems they are not. You may not know my brother it is not even allow for a Muslim girls to drop her hijab for one seconds outside on her own. You know why the school management shut the classrooms? because they are guilty.

computergeek:
I'm not trying to bring them down or denigrate them, but I just feel Muslims like to act as if they're being mistreated. I understand that they take their religion as a culture, but then again they should stop forcing their nuggets on other people, because some of us take our religions very seriously too but we know when to cut back.

A government school is not a religious school. It won't kill anyone if the girls drop their hijabs for a few hours of school. Schools don't allow Catholic kids to wear Chaplets and medals and finger Rosaries. Schools don't allow girls from other Christian denominations to cover their hair or wear Church vests to school, so why should Muslim girls be permitted to wear hijabs to government schools? Everyone should try to be more tolerant, more flexible and less over-zealous.

You were given admission into the school with "terms and conditions". You accepted. Now you want your 'employer' to dance to your tune because it's within your constitutional rights.
Assuming, but not conceeding, that the school allows this, before you know it, they will insist on making provision on the time table to allow for "PRAYING TIME" since it is also their fundamental human rights.

Confused people, if God wants it that way then he’ll have created the hijab over their hair. Anywhere this sect(Muslim) see peace and tranquility, they will not be happy and always try to bring misunderstandings/fight.

ISI is a private run school, it is independent of FG. That being said, how will it look like if the celestials, cherubim, masquerades, Osun, sango, Obatala, Ifa and Ogun worshippers all come in their attires since we are independent nation ISI is over 50yeras old, Muslim parents should not disturb the peace of that school.

ISI is not a private school. It is owned by a public, federal university, University of Ibadan. Over the years, its staff are on the payroll of the federal government until recently when the federal government asked all universities to take control of their schools. The case is still in court because staff members are opposed to idea of this autonomy. A government school should respect the right of everybody, it is a constitutional right.

Not like every one does but if you were forced to stop it wouldn't you feel oppressed?

They wear the hijab for their own values not yours...wearing it in reality don't affect you except that others are less tolerant and less judgemental ...in a sane environment people fight to defend the values of others. If I had a budidst friend and I am a chirstain if I know its against his values to eat cows as a friend its not for me to force him to eat cows but help him eat something else aside cows...this is how to build a respectable society....tolerance is what is missing here and clearly most of everyone here would rather force others to be who they dont want to be rather than tolerate who they truly are and let peace reign .... This is what happens in marriages too...everyone wants to prove their values are supreme and thus impose it on others . pls let's be more tolerant with ourselves. Thank you
This is being objective. you are the wisest person here. we keep saying religion and difference in ethnicity is our problem. it's just lack of tolerance.

This is a private school. Follow their rules.

If you want to wear hijab, go to ansawurdeen school.

Stopping Hijab wearing in school is not analogous to stopping people from going to church. That is analogues only to stopping people from going to church. But how are you supposed to know ......you are a Muslim !

Muslim prays compulsorily 5times a day and part of the requirements is for you to cover what is necessary in your body.If Muslims are not allow to wear hijab,they won't be able to do this obligation anywhere they are whenever there is time for the prayer.

majority of you christians lack good moral and tolerant. You will start the problem and later shifted the blame on Muslim. They sould go to another school as if the school belong to christian. For how long student has been wearing hijab to this school? My sister attended this school with hijb without any harassment. What about wearing beret cap to school by christians student? You can as well ask yourself what has hijab need to do with study. Have they not been doing well well in their exams or what? They should just take th principl to court.

Most of these parents are just to show themselves, in their homes these hijab are not being wore by them. Now that the students weren't allowed to learn, what did they gain from it.

Then in my secondary school, You must cut your hair low cut. No earrings. No any sort of jewelries. No tight dress. No make up except Vaseline to be used as lip balm during harmattan season. It was Girls school.

All these regulations doesn't stop some to wear them outside the school premises. But inside the school we appear in UNIFORM.

What is wrong with our religious mentality? wearing of hijap in a private school? I remember in 2003 when some Muslim students went to schools and beat up christian students because of hijap, i made a presentation to the committee on return of schools to the missionary set up by the then governor, Senator Ladoja. During the presentation, i asked them why can't Muslim build their own private schools and then propagate all their doctrines there? The Muslims couldn't answer me. Now, Imagine ISI that is the pride of any parents has been turned to religious nonsense! The students who have been studying peacefully are now taught to be against each other.

This makes me sad. This school has been standing for decades, and has not experienced such drama (to the best of my knowledge). It has consistently churned out both Muslim and Christian leaders, who have excelled in whichever field they chose. What suddenly brought attention to a subject that was previously a non-issue?

Answer to your reasonable question is.

End Drawing nearer

Like you rightly said the school has been running smoothly for decades and has not witness such drama churning out both christian and Muslim leaders. So why Now?

End drawing near !

Islam is one major weapon the anti Christ will use to propagate his intentions. Don't you wonder why every chaos or let say 80% of problems of the world is engineered by Muslims?

Mention that country in the world that has not had its share in Islamic troubles. They must have one thing or the other to protest about.

Where ever there is peace in the world today, its either there is no Muslim there or very small number of Muslims are there and one day, when they grow in number there is gonna be problem.

It is not as if I hate Muslims, No! I have quite a number of them as friends, but this should not make one shy away from the truth and bearing his mind.

Like I always say, if I was born a Muslim , I would have changed as a teenager, because I am not blind or deaf to see and hear the atrocities of Muslims all over the world. They are quick to say Islam is a religion of peace but Contrary is the case. They rejoice seeing problem and chaos, They don't care if anyone is in agony as long as they are satisfied they are pleasing allah.

The schools have dress codes that have been maintained for decades. Both Muslims and Christians have been abiding with the dress code. I am sure if a Rosary is found hanging on the neck of any Catholic child , it would be seized by the school authority because it is not part of the dress code. And if that is done the Catholic Parents or priest wont come protesting.

Why is it always about muslims.

There are Islamic primary and secondary schools scattered all over the state why not take your kids there. They are allowed to use hyjab and even go to pray every of your prayer hours. By that there won't be problem.

Islam forming Religion of peace is funny. Because Contrary is the case.

Don't destroy the peace of ISI with your Religion of Peace mentality. Take your kids to a Muslim Schools.

They can even wear Jalamias, Sabaca, and hyjab there.

And when they grow older and become doctors, nurses, Soldiers, police men and women. They too start fighting the government to include Jalamia and hyjab into the dress codes of these proffesions.

All because where ever Islam is, there must be Chaos.

Let there be peace.

Everything is wrong with it. If they must cover their head, they should wear beret which is part of the school uniform. Hijab is a religious wear and should not be worn in schools. The same nonsense happened in Lagos sometimes and they were taken to court. At the end it was ruled the hijab should not be worn in public schools .

Please tell us the cross story
@inception...
In the 80s,prior to Nigeria's registration with the OIC,a Muslim politician and philanthropist(who is dead now,names withheld) had obtained grants from Saudi-Arabia to build the Central Mosque.
Before it was built,it was one small mosque tucked at a corner some metres away from where the Mosque now stands....
This politician now built the Mosque where it now stands adjacent to the cross where the full view of the cross was facing the worshippers whenever they looked up.....
It now caused a heavy religious problem akin to what's happening as they petitioned the then Head of state,and Minister of Education who had their sympathies.
Nigeria just got herself registered at the OIC and the then Minister,Prof. Jubril Aminu(himself,an old boy of the school),had summoned the then VC,Prof. Ayo Banjo to Lagos(then seat of government),and told him specifically to remove the cross to quell the problem. That cross you see there has been there since 1954.
The Christians(staff and students) prior to that had sworn that they rather die than move that cross.
The VC replied the Minister....that it will be easier for the Minister to remove him as VC than for the cross to be relocated.
The cross still stands there till today,
If you are familiar with that place you will discover that in front of the Central Mosque,there is a big wall built with blocks,specifically to block the cross whenever the Muslims pray......
