      Marks & Spencer sells school uniform hijabs for girls as young as 6. This is an abomination. This is extremist Islamism and NOT a Koranic requirement for young Muslim girls at primary school. No, no, no, no... NO!https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/uknews/7473581/marks-and-spencer-hijab-school-uniform-girls-sale/ …

      Good grief. It's not extremist Islamism, it's not an abomination, it's a hijab. What are you so scared of?

      No requirement in the Koran. And the Hadith only says pubescent girls should wear the head scarf to show modesty to men. Why then should a 6 year old girl wear one? This is a dangerous political ideology.

      Just because they’re being sold, doesn’t mean they HAVE to wear one. Young girls usually start wearing when they come of age. I taught 2 grade 2 classes in Bahrain. Almost no kids in the entire school wore them. Go educate yourself before spouting shite. You’re the extremist here

      Of course you do. I’m sure you’ve spent lots of time with an open mind living amongst the people you do regularly attack. I haven’t made your point for you at all. If you knew anything about the Middle East, you’d know that part of the culture varies massively country to country.

      Good grief. It’s because I know WHY those garments are worn that I object to them - especially for little girls. Maybe you need to do a bit more research, mate.

          Dear Julia - I am a retired journalist and in my time I spent two years in the Middle East. In the urban environments I often saw busloads of schoolchildren (too hot to walk) aged from 7 or 8 up to 14 or 15 and all wore hijabs. Out of town in villages hardly any girls wore them.

          Oh ffs stop acting like you know so much better than everyone, we can all Google why they wear them. But why doesn't really matter. If a little 6 year old girl wants to wear one then it's not doing anyone any harm is it. No one is forcing them to wear one either.

          So you seriously believe that EVERY female wearing this garment does so for 1 single reason? REALLY?! Then you’re thicker than I thought - although that, in itself, is an achievement.

          That’s my point though. I really think you don’t know. There is many reasons girls and women want to wear them. Some are for reasons of oppression and that is a cultural issue there. But that’s not the reason everyone wears them, not even by a long shot.

          Do you think that the men covering their whole heads and bodies with thobes etc is oppression too? Also, I think living amongst Muslim women and men, teaching children and adults over a course of two years in a Gulf country is probably considered reasonable research, buddy.
