They're not the one who lost all credibility here though 😬

I'm not getting back into this, you can actually read up on the politics in Belgium if you genuinely care to see who's speaking the truth.

Definitely not the person who reads a quote and insists it means the opposite of what was said sister.

Why should any religion require you to wear such outfit? That's beyond stupid, just like religions in general... :awkney:

Show me one verse in the Quran that says women have to cover their face. Even the hijab is not in the Quran.

To be honest - their country, their rules - others should comply, not to sound Islamophobic. If they can't or don't want to comply, that's their problem.

Coming to another country - follow the rules

Thank you for your comment!

Didn't we settle this? Prohibition doesn't work, prohibition towards harmless culture decisions is offensive, disagreeing with that simply makes you wrong, anti-Arab/Muslim sentiments persist in Europe and the US like a disease and entertaining ideas like a ban on a freaking head dress makes you just as culpable in it.

Whimsical bitch

You can't just glaze over an article from 7 years ago, conclude someone is a racist and fascist and then move on

I mean if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck…

If someone doesn’t want the label then perhaps the ought not espouse similar viewpoints

The "Hijab" verse: "Let them draw their veils over their chests, and not reveal their ˹hidden˺ adornments, except what normally appears"

Men and women in Pre-Islam Arabia had veils on their head or neck because of harsh desert environment. You can even see Mother Mary and men during Jesus time having them. So the Quran is telling women to lower their veil to their chests for general modesty, so the purpose is covering the chest, not the hair! You can see how there is no specific rules, its a general order for modesty as the verse says expect what normally appears, which is the opposite of what Muslim women do today going out of their way to cover every inch of hair and body. And lastly, this verse was talking about a specific event when Muslim women were being sexually harassed as a minority.

In Islam we have something called "Urf", which means to follow local customs as a basis for legal rulings and daily life, aslong as it does not break Islamic rules. Because the prophet knows the future Muslims around the world shouldnt live like the ancient world of Arabian desert. 

Sorry for the long detailed response lol

I mean they have their reasons, especially in Europe, and it was voted by their parliment. Why are Americans always trying to change other country’s laws? No wonder they don’t like us in their countries because we can’t respect their laws or customs.

So all laws are intrinsically right?

if the people if Portugal support then it should be the law. If they don’t they can vote them out. It is not the end of the world. They shouldn’t force their religion on people and possibly jeopardize national security. They don’t have to wear their burqas, it is a choice. Religious people do way too much. 
 

They have their own needs and concerns. We Americans need to realize that not every country is like ours. They have their own needs and customs and if they feel okay with this ban, then so be it.

I love that you've come into a thread, where a lot of the commentators are European and you're complaining about American superiority complexes among the people debating this without any sense of irony.
