Muslim woman sues US firm over hijab

Wed Jun 29, 2011 7:0AM

A Californian Muslim woman has sued American retailer Abercrombie & Fitch for firing her for refusing to remove her religious headscarf while at work.

Hani Khan, a former stockroom worker in California took federal court action against the clothing retailer for illegally firing her after she insisted on wearing her hijab, the Associated Press reported.

Mosque & Politics

I have some questions and could use your honest insights. Many mosques have been implicated in recent years in the dissemination of extremist political ideologies. Some like the EDL rest their case against all Islam on the claim that among Muslims extreme politics are endemic. I point out extremist ideologies are endemic among football hooligans and that going to mosque is not a political statement, but that doesn't actually confront what might be a moot point. How much is politics a totem of your mosque? Is it common to hear sermons about politics in mosques in the UK? What is the dominant gist and what space is there for disagreement?

I thank you.

ART

hi Guys

does anyone know of any up and coming talented artists?
I'm doing a feature about Art and artists from a Muslim background
Not necessarily ISLAMIC art per se, but all kinds, but predominantly, I want artists from a Muslim background - they don't have to be practicing as such but of that background.

Cheers

"Religious people make crappy humans"

Just a question and you will see it around quite often, probably far more than what should be the case.

You will get religious people who may dress the part, talk the part and pray the part.

But they are crappy humans who seem to ignore all aspects of islam outside of worship and will trespass on others rights and see nown wrong with it.

An example can be found here.

Why is this the case? Dont people understand that Islam is more than about banging your head against the floor the allotted number of times?

HIJAB - Freedom or Opression

HIJAB - Freedom or Oppression

In France, they have banned the burqa, but in a democracy, where everyone has equality, is it right for France to take away the freedom of a Muslim woman. If all women have the right to wear what they want to then why shouldn’t Muslim women?

Centuries ago, most women would be expected to have modesty, worldwide. Although as time goes shamelessness is increasing. Islam is a religion where there is an attempt to maintain the modesty. Today, many Muslim women refuse to wear the hijab as they don’t want to come across as oppressed or unfashionable.

There are many reasons why it is obligatory for a Muslim woman to wear a hijab:
• Modesty –Hijab comes from the Arabic word ‘hajaba’, which means to hide or to conceal

Islamic Point of View Regarding Shab-e-Barat

In the Islamic culture, Shab-e-Barat has great importance and is celebrated with enthusiasm by Muslims all around the globe. For Muslims, this night has great importance regarding worship as well. Muslims would spend the entire night praying and worshiping, asking and requesting Allah for things that they desire. However, before delving into the customs followed during Shab-e-Barat, it is best to first understand the concept of this day.For more details please visit the site below:

The Significance Of The Month Of Rajab

The entire world is the creation of Allah, however, some places are considered more sacred and divine than others. For instance, prayers offered at Mecca and Madina carry more value and significance than those offered at an ordinary place. This is because some places are more close and sacred because of their origins or their history.For more details please visit the site below:

Change yourselves

why is a group of people who claim to be destined for an abode of eternal sucess are miserably unsuccessful in this transient life?
-
we are regarded by the rest of humanity. as the most self-righteous, self-conceited, whinging group of people on the face of the earth because we always blame others for the decadence we find outselves in. The reality is we need to have a proactive approach, we need to energies back into society, we need to change ourselves, because if we can't change ourselves, there's no way we can revolutionise the dunya. If you can't get up for fajr, don't talk about revolutionising the world!
