"Muslim women" or "women who wear a headscarf"? There are millions of Muslim women who choose not to wear a scarf so please be a little considerate of this fact.https://twitter.com/trtworld/status/1086907569975767045 …

Yes, but to an Islamophobe a woman wearing a hijab stands out more obviously as Muslim, so it's not incorrect, if you look at the Islamophobia behind such attacks
I am not denying that fact but calling a woman wearing a head scarf as "Muslim woman" is a disservice to rest of proud Muslim women who choose not to wear it. It's the very same mentality that Islamophobes are attacking any woman in a scarf thinking they must be Muslim.

true, but it's not an Hermes scarf she's wearing for fasion. it's 99 percent clear that, that woman was Muslim (wearing the kind of hijab many Muslim women do wear) and if Islamophobia is already a problem there, it's fair to think she was targeted for being Muslim

If a Muslim woman is telling you she doesn’t like the fact the media uses ‘Muslim women’to mean women in Hijab only,whats wrong with that? Lady being attacked is a visible Muslim woman wearing a hijab & thought majority of attacks are,it’s not just the hijab that directs attacks
