About this ebook

In the West, Islam is believed to be the symbol of the subordination of women par excellence. In order to understand how firm this belief is, it is enough to mention that the Minister of Education in France, the land of Voltaire, has recently ordered the expulsion of all young Muslim women wearing the veil from French schools! A young Muslim student wearing a headscarf is denied her right of education in France, while a Catholic student wearing a cross or a Jewish student wearing a skullcap is not. The scene of French policemen preventing young Muslim women wearing headscarves from entering their high school is unforgettable. It inspires the memories of another equally disgraceful scene of Governor George Wallace of Alabama in 1962 standing in front of a school gate trying to block the entrance of black students in order to prevent the desegregation of Alabama's schools.

Yet women in islam wear the hijab as a mark of there respect for the religion of islam this is our identy .. it also in my eyes does not let the wondering eye lay upon us in disrespect yet in great respect. Many wear it as an fashion icon me i wear it in respect of islam , plus greatly fear the punishment in akaruth astukfirullah. As for the country's that oppose the headscarf. Regardless will wear it, ,,

All those educated and broadminded people who are concerned about their wives', sisters' and daughters' security and all those intellectuals who can't think of a solution to women's objectification, exploitation and rape cases should read this book. Drop the hypocritic freedom and embrace reality and women's respect and security.

Having gone through buying the book, it certainly is free. Card details are asked by Google wallet. Author have nothing to do with them. Google wallet does this with every single book transaction whether free or paid. To Vivek 'review -- My friend, If you 1. Be impartial and 2. Take some time to read the book, I am sure you will acknowledge Author's effort to clarify a lot of points.
