Fatima, a Moroccan teenager, arrives with his veil (hijab) to school, is their first day of class. Before entering the hall, a teacher talks to her, wants to persuade her not to drive, asked if her parents force her into it, she says no, they do not want to use. Eventually the teacher does that Fatima untied the handkerchief from his head.
This story is part of the script for a short Xavi Sala, but we could imagine to get Fatima bareheaded to school in a Muslim country and it happened otherwise. No doubt many versions fit, different shades, but in these two stories are repeating the same defeat, freedom of choice, the ability to decide for ourselves, particularly when our choice does not seem harmful to others.
The curtain raises tensions in the West and within Islam, with different nature, but with some curious coincidences. For some the hijab (veil) is a must and is apparent major Islamic legal sources, the Qur'an and Hadith (what the Prophet (PBUH) said and did). It is no doubt in these days the line of thought most established and strength.
Para otros y acudiendo a esas mismas fuentes no es una obligación, pues según sostienen en las nueve ocasiones que el texto sagrado menciona el velo, no lo identifica con una parte de la indumentaria femenina, dicen que alude a un cortinaje que sirve para separación del espacio público del privado o al “jimar”, tela que tapa el escote. Y Muhammad (Sas) no quiso decir nada concluyente, entendiendo esta omisión como una forma de admitir un espacio para el criterio personal otra de las fuente del derecho islámico.
Y otras posturas minoritarias, consideran el debate sino innecesario si claramente irresoluble, creen que debe de prevalecer el principio de la no imposición en las cuestiones religiosas, as recorded by a verse from the Koran, which recommends the modesty and decency when it comes to clothing, for which the hijab has its uses, but without making an election intended as some apparel for men nor for women. This trend calls for the acceptance of all positions and leave the choice to the players, because only spiritual beliefs are true and endure when they are born of a voluntary acceptance.
Muslim countries are not a monolithic bloc, nor question nor in many others. So Arabia, Iran imposed, chase and incriminate their non-use, others prohibit public spaces and accepted in the private the case of Tunisia and many silent or say anything about it. Something similar happens in France compared with Britain and Spain, here reversed a match, France, the birthplace of freedom and secularism choose a coercive regulation like Arabia or Iran, countries classified as conservative or reactionary openly. Are coercive each to their own way by simply ignore and violate the rights to personal and religious identity enter other shapers of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
When the West reigned the lands of Islam, the veil was disturbed because the magical quality attributed to women invisible, unfathomable and mysterious. Some concern, because the colonizer Muslim women lay in the preservation of the essences and transmission to the children of Islam.
past few years is the visibility of Muslim women through the streets wearing the veil, the reason for discomfort, it is sometimes interpreted as a challenge, a claim of identity and rejection as a sign of integration. These ideas favor the reaction, more leaflets and a tendency to close, retract the bridges, roads and back should not be closed.
The redefinition of concepts such as integration is urgent and can not develop under the same principles applicable en la época colonial, cuando la ocupación de la tierra no era compatible con la independencia de las personas. Era necesario entonces, un esfuerzo destinado a pulir las diferencias, impedir las reservas a la imitación ciega del ocupante y a la aceptación complaciente de sus costumbres y pensamientos.
Es palpable que aún subsisten en mayor o menor medida algunos de estos trasnochados resabios, que distorsionan la percepción de velo reducido a un símbolo que lleva parejo, la aceptación de la opresión femenina y todas las cualidades retrógradas que estemos dispuestos atribuirle.
Las musulmanas dicen que hay tantas razones para llevar un velo, como cada una de las mujeres que lo usa, así que consider that a Muslim has advanced ideas it is clear the veil and are subjugated if fitted, a deduction is true in some cases, but it is generally understood as being simplistic.
Many Muslim positively value the Western societies, without hesitation acknowledge the progress and advancement of women's rights and claim this as essential when living in Spain or comparable countries in this regard.
was yesterday on the sidewalk of a public school, a group of Muslim women just leave their children at school, some covered their heads with the hijab (veil) and not others, talking and laughing with English mothers of things of sus hijos. Una monja clarisa de un convento cercano, bajaba la calle y al llegar a la altura del grupo se paró y las besó a todas. Las dejé allí con esa fraternidad elemental que tan fácil resulta a las mujeres y tanto cuesta a los hombres.
Esta escena no es una invención y supongo que situaciones similares se repiten en este país a diario, la convivencia no es tan imposible como algunos vaticinan ni tan fácil como otros desearíamos, pero por ahora sigue siendo posible.
