VEIL

Veil is a sign of Muslim women, and it also is a sign of blocked their freedom, opportunity of educated, career, and others. Slamic law is the product of Quranic guidelines, as understood by Islamic jurisprudence, as well as of the interpretations derived from the traditions of Prophet Muhammad, that were agreed upon by majority of Muslim scholars as authentic beyond doubt based on the Science of Hadith These interpretations and their application were shaped by the historical context of the Muslim world at the time they were written. Many of the earliest writings were from a time of tribal warfare which could have been inappropriate for the 21st Century.
The Marxist writer, Valentine M. Moghadam argues that the position of women are mostly influenced by the extent of urbanization, industrialization, proletarization and political ploys of the state managers rather than culture or intrinsic properties of Islam; Islam, Moghadam argues, is neither more nor less patriarchal than other world religions especially Hinduism, Christianity and Judaism.
