This was for the Prophet Muhammad (saw)'s wives because of their status. Only in hostile lawless situations where rape and sexual assult is rampant or in militant demonstrations should sisters run around in niqab. In non Muslim countries it ceartainly cause alarm. Imagine being a cop and a niqabi is driving down the street. Ofcourse the cop will pull her over to make sure about several possible things like is this an underage driver etc..now even hijabis will be effected in court because of this niqabi's action.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36915796.post-78486155817807482312009-06-30T12:25:36.572-07:002009-06-30T12:25:36.572-07:00That's so sad that a judge can prevent a siste...That's so sad that a judge can prevent a sister from testifying in court because of her veil (hijab). Yet I think we sometimes bring this upon ourselves by not fully understanding the fiqh of hijab & niqab.
