[quote=Anonymous]NP here who has been following this thread but hasn't commented yet. OP, I don't see how you can write "the intent of my post was not to discuss whether hijab was mentioned in the Quran." It wasn't, as you know. Hijab/niqab are not mentioned in the Quran. That is unavoidably going to color the views that you asked for. A natural extension of this is to ask why, then, women do wear hijab or niqab. It seems hypocritical to fein surprise, as you're doing, that many attribute the veil to patriarchal cultures or to family oppression, and ask why you can't demonstrate modesty without it. You can't close your eyes to this long-standing, global debate about the veil. [/quote]
