M Obama sparks backlash for not covering head in Saudi Arabia

We can all come up with the conclusion that the US and Saudi Arabia need each other.

Turkey, Tunisia and Syria had but they repealed it. Also some basic research has shown that it's not even as mandatory as you've made out that muslim women cover their heads.

Well no she just wouldn't go or wouldn't obey all of them. You're missing my point, you see her covering her head as a rule so why do you want her to follow that rule but then you're happy for her to break the rule about going to mosque?

Where else have I generalised? Yeah I bet if I had used that same verse it would have been ok but if I had taken something to highlight the violence then I'd be told I'm taking it out of context

What basic research lol? It is 100% compulsory for Muslim women to cover their head. Just because some Muslims don't, it doesn't make it right. I'm pretty sure I know my religion better than you.

It has already been said by the Prophet (SAW) that it is better for the woman to pray at home rather than in the mosque. So your point would still be invalid lol.
Btw the 'covering her head' isn't a rule. I will repeat myself again. It is out of respect (assuming we're talking about Michelle Obama here).

I'm quite sure the governments of Turkey, Tunisia and Syria know Islam pretty well too. I'm pretty sure the woman who wrote this knows her religion http://en.qantara.de/content/the-german-islam-scholar-lamya-kaddor-why-i-as-a-muslim-woman-dont-wear-a-headscarf. Besides the basis of my argument was stating that it is in fact, as you perceive it, a rule of the religion and not a rule of the country and thus Michelle Obama is under no obligation to follow it.



Well then out of respect she should pray at home? The points your making aren't actually against my points. My simple point that you've failed to answer is 'why do you expect her to follow one particular religious 'rule' but you're happy for her not to follow others?'

Ok well when muslims come to christian countries they should wear a crucifix, uncover their heads, eat non-halal meat and drink alcohol because that's our culture

Those aren't Christian values.

Culture and religion are different things.

Covering her head doesn't go against any of her teachings, in Christianity they were even told to.

Not that it makes a difference, it isn't a big deal that she didn't.

But your point is stupid.

No they don't know Islam well. They're becoming more secular each day. And I'm not even going to bother clicking on that link. A person on the ISOC tried to put the same issue forward just a couple of hours ago, and not one Muslim agreed with him. Feel free to go on the thread and check out some of the evidence presented by the users against his claim.

Who is she going to pray to?
What other rules are you talking about?
She doesn't have to act like the perfect Muslim. She just has to respect the environment she's in. For example, if a non Muslim woman wanted to go to a mosque just to visit it and see what it's like, she has to dress in an appropriate manner out of RESPECT, but that doesn't mean she has to start praying and such, because it's not her religion. But because she chose to go there, she has to conduct herself in an appropriate manner.

This shall be the last time I reply to you. You're obviously rejecting everything I say because it's not want you want to hear, even though I've provided you with Quranic verses etc. And I recommend you search on sites that provide a more accurate version of Islam, by the top and most famous scholars, rather than those that present a minority view.
