    I completely respect your reasoning for wearing a head scarf.However, I am a woman who opposes, wearing of the Burkha.In Surah 23:59, men are told to tell their women, to cover themselves modestly, as to avoid being "annoyed" by honoring this mandate, we justify this verse, which gives license to men to annoy women who do not need.As seen across Europe in recent years. Who is #metoo.=46% women globally.Sexual harassment is not limited to one religion or one part of the world.#SayNo2Sexism
