Burqa Dbq

774 Words4 Pages

The first section I will be talking to you about is the act of prohibiting the wearing of burqas in the United States. The second point I will be discussing about is my point of view on the act of prohibiting Syrian and/or Saudi Arabian refugees from entering the United states without presidential approval. The final section I will be discussing to you about is about Immigrants

At a camp at Kohat, Pakistan there were two suicide bombers, disguised with burqas, that struck the camp. The attack killed 41 people and injured about 62 people. In another case there were seven Afghan Taliban terrorists who were wearing burqas. One of the members was wearing an explosive vest under the burqa and extra part and the 6 others had AK 47s, luckily nobody …show more content…

The 1st Amendment states Freedom of Religion. I personally think that if it is for that persons religious rights then they should not have to take it off. Now if they are suspected for having something hidden under it than that manager or employee of whatever should politely ask them to show under the burqa, if it is ok then they should be able to wear it, if it is not ok then they should be reported to the police and/or held captive until Police get there. There is also a negative part if the person wearing it clearly has something under it such as a bomb then they should not be able to wear it. Terrorist attacks happen, because there are people out there who are hiding bombs and other weapons under their burqa. I think the President needs to crack down on who should and who should not wear burqas. Now on to the next section I think that putting immigrants in commencement camps is the wrong idea. I guess it really depends on what they have done wrong if they have only crossed the border then they should not be kept in commencement caps all they wanted to do is just feel free. If they have done something very very bad then yes they should be held in a commencement camp but if they have done nothing wrong then they should not be held in commencement

  • Niquab Case Study

    140 Words  | 1 Pages

    1. The article that I found is about how the Federal Government was denied the ability to ban women from wearing their niquabs during a citizenship ceremony. The ban on niquabs was first brought to light when a Muslim woman from Pakistan named Zunera Ishaq tried to get Canadian citizenship, but she was unable to do so due to her unwillingness to remove her niquab. In the federal court ruling between the dispute amidst Zunera Ishaq and the government, Judge Keith Boswell stated that denying Zunera Ishaq her right to wear a niquab during her Canadian citizenship ceremony violates her freedom of religion. It was ruled that Zunera Ishaq was allowed to complete the ceremony while wearing her niquab.

  • Reza Shah Dbq

    894 Words  | 4 Pages

    In 1939, Reza Shah’s unveiling declaration sparked a worldwide debate as to what the veil actually symbolizes. Ever since the beginning of Islam, women throughout the Islamic world have had to adopt the hijab as part of their cultural and religious attire due to various interpretations of the Islamic dress code. In addition, the Koran emphasizes purity in the name of Islam by asking both men and women to be modest when it comes to the way they dress. Furthermore, in his efforts to modernize Iran, Reza Shah failed to satisfy the needs of his people, as he gave women no say in what they could and could not wear in public. This eventually resulted in the division of Iranian women, as there were those who favored the Islamic tradition, and those who supported the regime and its adoption of Western values.

  • The Burka Jill Singer Analysis

    806 Words  | 4 Pages

    However, Jill Singer in her opinion piece argues that the Burka should be banned as it is a symbol of oppression and inequality. Singer emphasises that the burka is “a symbol of subservience that turns woman into prisoners”. Singer makes good use of negative connotations such as “oppression”, “masochist” and “subservience” to generate an emotional response in the reader. The readership can be caught up in Singer’s heightened state of empathy for the women who are treated as worthless and objects of oppression. By drawing on the reader’s emotion, Singer is able to position the reader to think that in a modernised society, women should not be treated unequally to such an extent, thus making them side with her.

Many people recoil at just the sight of a Muslim woman’s covered head. The first thought that comes to mind, for many people, when picturing a Muslim is a rural man wearing a turban and speaking a foreign language. This image has not only greatly bothered many American Muslims; it has massively affected their day-to-day lives. Adnan Syed, for example, was greatly discriminated against in a courtroom whilst fighting for his freedom.

Then, it is considered, that any limitation of faith's expression is against the conviction that democracy advocates. For example, in the article written by Ruth, M.L.
