The terms niqab and burqa are often confused; a niqab covers the face while leaving the eyes uncovered, while a burqa covers the entire body from the top of the head to the ground, with only a mesh screen allowing the wearer to see in front of her. According to the majority of Muslim scholars and Islamic schools of thought, face veiling is not a requirement of Islam; however a minority of Muslim scholars, particularly among the Salafi and Wahhabism, assert that women are required to cover their faces in public. The face veil was originally part of women's dress among certain classes in the Byzantine Empire and was adopted into Muslim culture during the Arab conquest of the Middle East (photo: iStock by Getty Images | caption: adapted from Wikipedia). https://media.islamicity.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/iStock-147038925-scaled.jpg <!--BLP-SHORTCODE-BEGIN--><a href="https://www.islamicity.org/78999/u-s-needs-an-honest-debate-on-sharia-law/"><img src='https://www.islamicity.org/wp-content/plugins/blueprint-timthumb/timthumb.php?src=https://media.islamicity.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/iStock-147038925-scaled.jpg&w=500&h=281&q=100' class="thumbnailpostcontent" ></a> <!--BLP-SHORTCODE-END--> https://www.islamicity.org/wp-content/plugins/blueprint-timthumb/timthumb.php?src=https://media.islamicity.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/iStock-147038925-scaled.jpg&w=500&h=281&q=100 Mahan Mirza By: Mahan Mirza   Source: The Hill Mahan Mirza The Hill Americas, Asia, Featured, Highlights, Women, World Affairs Afghanistan, Cold War, Conflicts And War, Foreign Policy, Islamic Law (Sharia), Taliban, United States Of America, Veil (Burqa) americas asia featured highlights women world-affairs afghanistan cold-war conflicts-and-war foreign-policy islamic-law-sharia taliban united-states-of-america veil-burqa What was more stunning — the overnight collapse of the Kabul regime or the apparent magnanimity of the Taliban after their victory?
