his wife will have grave consequences on the mental sheet of the
wife, it has both psychological and physiological impact on her."

"Such acts of husbands scar the soul of the wives. It is, therefore, imperative for the law makers to now “hear the voices of

Alright! Time for a controversial thread. Recently #KarnatakaHighCourt released its verdict about the #HijabBan & the status was the ban should persist. What does it really stand for?

I have an anecdote. I don't know which class, but I distinctly remember an illustrative depiction of a conversation between a Sikh & a common man.

Sikh wasn't wearing a helmet & the common man asked why? Wouldn't you be charged? Sikh said as he was wearing a turban, he could not be charged.

#HijabRow.
Thread.
Lets go back to basics. What is the core question?
Might be easier to define what it is NOT.
1. It is not whether Hijab is mandated by Islam. You could have a decades-long debate on that Q and still not get universal agreement. It Does NOT matter.

2. It is not whether a Hijab (or for that matter a #Ghunghat, a turban, a #mangalsutra or whatever) is a regressive practice. Women are repressed in all communities. And you could hardly argue that @IlhanMN or Halimah Yacob suffer repression
#Hijab and repression are NOT linked.

3. The Q is not "Why do some women insist on wearing a #Hijab?". You could, with equal stupidity, ask "Why do some women not wear a Hijab or a Ghunghat?"
