What age for hijab?
Jan 19^th, 2017 at 3:17pm

We're told that hijab is a choice of Muslim women and their own personal choice, and is a modesty dress code meant for sexually mature women, and girls who have reached puberty.

This is total BS.

This article outlines how girls as young as five at Islamic schools are required to wear hijab.

This means that it's either being forced upon females (which we're told isn't happening) or that 5 year old girls are considered sexually mature.

If girls in kindergarten or grade four are being made to comply, then this flies in the face of any claim that observing hijab is a choice for individual women to make according to their own faith.

A girl of this age is not only incapable of an informed decision, she is far too young to have connotations of "modesty" and "purity" imposed on her child's body.

why should anyone have to defend to you their choice of garments? Do you think you're special or something?

John, I'm quoting an article from a Muslim woman. Kiss

Young girls being forced to comply with the notion that their bodies ought to be completely covered up, before their minds are mature enough the process the concept of hijab and how it relates to faith, is essentially teaching them that their bodies are shameful. Along with practices including the segregation of menstruating girls, which also breeds shame, this must be rejected no matter where it is coming from.

Why are 5 year old girls forced to wear a hijab? Why Greggy?

Using 5 year old girls in an attempt to score cheap political points.

You should be ashamed.

I know you won't be though, so tell us then - which 5 year old girls are being forced to wear hijabs?

And probably provides ani-pedo protection from the priests, just as hijab keeps the prying eyes off the 5 year old girls.

Along with practices including the segregation of menstruating girls, which also breeds shame, this must be rejected no matter where it is coming from.

From a Muslim woman:

"It's not an obligatory for a 4-year-old girl to wear hijab. Her parents just want to make their daughter get used to wearing it. By the time she will be at certain age (baligh), she will already used to wearing hijab."

Another one:

"In my (relatively conservative as compared to other Saudis) family, no girls are ever obliged to cover as you mentioned."

Another one:

"I am Indonesian. I do this, not by force, though."

Muslim teenager:

"There are so many young girls who wear it because they want to look like mummy."

And:

"Its not an obligation. No force required. Children imitate their parents.

My child cries if she doesnt wear hijab with an Abaya. She's 4."
