It doesn't matter if its 0.003%. thats still muslim women that can't wear the burqa and express themselves. Its like banning red. A small population might wear it but thats still an amount that don't get to wear that color or article of clothing.

Thats only in Afghanistan. If you were a woman and had to wear the burqa because you would be beaten, would you not wear the Burqa?

I agree because in the video we watched it showed the women saying "When I was buying bleach people thought I was making a bomb"... But other people in the store defended her saying she is only religious, she isn't different, or she is not a terrorist.

If you were to band wearing the Burqa it would be like banding christians from wearing the Cross.

In the koran it talks about why they cover themselves. Here is the reading:

"Tell the faithful women that they must keep their gaze

focused below/on the ground and cover their sexual organs.

They must not put their beauty and their jewellery on display.

They must hide their breasts behind a purdah. They must

not exhibit their beauty to anybody except their husbands,

brothers, nephews, womenfolk, servants, eunuch employees

and children. They must not move their legs briskly while

walking because then much of their bodies can get

exposed." (Sura Al Noor 24:31)

The burqa brings the women closer to their god, Allah, and gives them a difference and freedom compared to other people.

Burqas are a religious tradition because they have the choice to wear the burqas. If they didn't want to wear it then they wouldn't.
