Questioning the Veil: Open Letters to Muslim Women
I'm a Muslim woman who lately wants to take off the scarf. This book was a recommendation of a friend of mine that knows I have some kind of trouble with this decision. So I wanted to read it thinking it'd help me strengthen my thoughts.
I was wrong. It did nothing. Neither encouraged nor discouraged me. You wouldn't lose anything by not reading it.
The author constantly claims that a woman cannot wear the scarf willingly. I disagree. I wasn't forced at all to do so. And I know many others that have done it willingly as well.
She describes veiling as "a tradition that makes it difficult for women to think of themselves as human beings". I do not like this generalisation. She should've known that women who wear the scarf differ a lot from each other spirituality.
