TRANSCRIPT
VEILS IN THE ISLAMIC TRADITION
VEILS FIND THEIR ORIGIN IN THE JUDEO-CHRISTIAN
TRADITION
THE BLESSED MOTHER MARY IS THE INSPIRATION FOR THE CONTEMPORARY VEIL IN ISLAM
IN STATUES OF MARY,
IN PAINTINGS OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN,
JESUS’ MOTHER IS THE EPITOME OF MODESTY.
THIS IS REFLECTED IN THE MUSLIM VEIL.
HERE’S WHERE IT GETS CONTROVERSIAL!
DO YOU SEE THIS AS RELIGIOUS FREEDOM? LIBERATION FROM WESTERN OBJECTIFICATION?
DO YOU SEE THIS AS OPPRESSION OF WOMEN?
