- A number of schoolgirls in France have been sent home, after arriving wearing the abaya - a long Muslim robe which was banned from schools in the country last week.
According to official figures, 298 girls - mainly aged 15 or more - turned up at school in the banned garment, and while most agreed to change and were allowed to attend classes, 67 girls refused to comply and were sent home.
It comes after the education minister announced that pupils would be banned from wearing the loose-fitting full-length robes worn by some Muslim women in France's state-run schools, as part of the nation’s strict ban on religious signs in state schools and government buildings, arguing that they violate secular laws.

As a Turkish man i support France in this situatuon. If European woman cant go outside without scarf in Islamic country , a foreigner woman shouldnt wear her scarf in France. If you want to live Islam go to Afghanistan. You gonna live your religion in real Islamic country not in EU
That's why we love Turkish people 😊

so basically, take off your garment that covers your modesty and throw on a tiny skirt so the potential perverts can get a good looking up

What a complete joke!

No need for school uniforms.
It is an expensive nonsense.
Fascist.
No
Society decides cultural norms. How is France banning abaya robes any different from Muslim countries requiring ex-pats and tourists to follow their dress codes (headscarves, etc.)? If you want to live/work/study in a country, shouldn't you have to assimilate to a reasonable degree? Otherwise, what is the point in moving/migrating to a different culture?
💯
Absolutely. Let them ban all long sleeve dresses. Completely inappropriate for these white women to be wearing these long sleeve dresses as well. We must all dress the same in the same grey jumpsuit to be truly equal!
So Italians should take their food back to Italy?
France claims to be a liberal society, muslim countries dont
They they should be honest and say all students are required to dress to Christian standards of dress and decency and no other, because they are breaching article 18 of the UDHR that they helped draft.
If they come to France, abide by the country's laws and customs.
Will u do the same in other countries and also mind your own business in other countries...by the way leave Africa and Canada it ain't your..when u do that and stop your imperialism..then fine we will do the same...ignorance is bliss
Did France abide Africa law ?

Abiding by French law doesn't mean that you cant even choose what to wear. The French government doesn't have the right to tell its citizens what to wear on thier own bodies
@@Muhammad_Ahmad_like Qatar did with people wearing lgbt flag on their t-shirt you meant ?

Our clothes were dictated to us at the school I went to. We had to wear school uniform. The purpose being that it put all pupils on a level pegging, regardless of background. No reason to judge each other on anything other than character and behavior. It worked fairly well.

It also cut down on bullying. Those who dress differently at school can be picked on.
@@WVgirl1959 Sadly, yes, kids (and unfortunately even some adults) will always look for differences and use those to bully others. It did help to reduce opportunities for bullies.

I feel like enforcing school uniform in schools would achieve the french government’s goal of secularity without hyper-focusing on certain groups of people and alienating them in this way… I think the uk has a nice balance in that everyone looks much the same in school but laws regarding religious accessories/ clothing are not so pervasive and particular. But I do understand this is something of a cornerstone of French identity, to be secular, and would be interested to hear the public opinion on this new mandate.
It's because the French secularism freedom from religion meaning that anything religious is a no go, be it a turban, cross, etc
@@jubal6654 You keep writing that but it is not true. There is no right in France to not be exposed to any religion, only that it can not impose or deny religious practice on public life. You know... what this law does.
@@obsidianjane4413 you are confusing freedom of religion and freedom from religion
It was birth from the revolution since at the time the state and the church hold so much power as one, it seeked a society freed from the crutch of religion and it's chacales, they went so far as trying to make their own calender since the calender we use (the gregorian calender) is built uppon a Christian foundation. Freedom from religion is that you are freed from the indoctrination of religion itself
Is this something good?
Hell nah! And we are seeing why this extreme idea is a bad one right in front of us
Just stating that this isn't anything new and Muslims getting surprised about this when moving to France just shows their ignorance
We have school uniforms here in Australia, and everyone accepts it. Considered part of the education system. The Islamic clothing is accepted, nobody worries about it.
@@jubal6654"Freedom from religion" sounds so condescending. Who decides what's freedom? How about someone chatting up with a 11-year old, saying, "I want you to enjoy freedom from your parents. I want you to enjoy the freedom from wearing clothes".
Every ardent preacher preaches that his religion will give the listener the "freedom from all other religions."
The type of secularism they insist on is itself a fanatical religion (not all followers are) itself, against all other.
But the b*llsh*t can work as a fertilizer for poppy plants for some addicts.
Ever wondered why we wear a very specific attire when we graduate?
The graduation gown also known as the subfusc and the flat hat with the tassels also called the mortar board.
History has a lot to tell us about the massive influence the Islamic civilization had on the making of the modern world.
Did you know that the first university in Europe was established by the Muslims in 841 AD, in the city of Salerno (Italy). It was an extension of the Muslim universities in the east.
So when the students (non Muslims from Europe) learned and graduated from these universities and returned to their lands, they used to dress in Muslim robes (Thawb or Qamees) and that would become an indication that this particular student graduated from the university of the Muslims. This imitation of wearing the Arab / Muslim garb (which is baggy and wide in design) has stayed with them to this day and spread all across the world.
You Islamist really make everything about you 😂
False
Now I can see why they are banning it bcz ur religion have brainwashed them so much that they wore the imitation.
@@SaintCharbelMiracleworkerJust "false?" no rebuttal or argument? Just going to deny a fact because you don't want it to be true?
The first university in europe was founded by muslims. Also, here's another fact, if it makes you feel any worse: The first university in the world was also founded by a muslim woman, in the city of Fes, Morocco.

How are westerners saying wearing an abaya comparable to bikinis? Currently people can wear jeans, skirts, gowns all of which are all decent, what is the issue with an abaya that it can't be worn? Does it stop the student from learning maths?

Also it is about making students more equal,if one girls wear Abaya then other would see her as different maybe not all her friends but there would always be some kids who would differentiate her. Wearing a uniform eliminate all these,it is also the best solution to make school safe as racial discrimination is something which cannot be removed through a ban but religious or cultural discrimination can be removed.

I never did much understand banning clothing. If you want them to wear something specific, I suggest creating a school uniform.
Young Girls today or at least in my area is all about wearing as little clothes as possible showing off as much skin as they can get away with it.
I think it’s refreshing to see a group of girls doing the complete opposite.
Yeah I mean, that’s quite common here in the UK. It doesn’t seem like school uniforms from a young age in France are at all as common for some reason.
I find it weird men getting so exercised about what women and girls wear. Mind your own business.
The vast majority of British schools already have a very strict uniform code, however these uniform rules don't apply to certain pupils who are still allowed to wear headscarves.

0:06 it is NOT an Islamic dress but simply a dress that Muslim women wear for modesty reasons prescribed in the Quran. Islam does not have “cultural or religious” symbols or clothing!
basically all women and men wore similar dresses/robes a few hundred years ago from christian Europe, to the Muslim world, to India and China and all other civilised peoples. christian colonisers from Europe would force nomadic/uncivilised people from the Americas to Africa to coverup and wear similar dresses BUT NOW the Europeans have a problem with modesty and especially modest Muslim women.

An abaya is not an Islamic symbol, is a piece of lose clothing that become famous in Islam as it’s so covering for women. Nuns wear something similar. The point is to be all covered loosely to not expose the shape of the body. The fact that they’re not allowing girls to fully cover themselves is crazy
Good for France i wish our government had the bottle to do the same here.

I fear for women in the UK- I think we will be forced to wear those disgusting symbols of misogyny before long if this country continues committing woke suicide.

I find this fiasco so interesting. To be modest, wouldn’t a long gypsy skirt and long sleeve t shirt suffice?
They just want to izlamize the country. They're doing everything in their power to fund news channels to spread this pr0p@g@πda
Yes baggy sweater and a gypsy skirt works the same. And that's the whole funny thing. The Abaya is nothing more than a simple solution to follow the Islamic dress code. Wide clothing thst doesn't show your body curves. So girls will just dress modestly in other ways. And they all swap back to Abaya when they leave the the school. But you see this every year. Macron needs some easy points for the right wingers in his country. Senate elections soon.
Well done France.
Religious fashion is not religion.
France does a good job protecting ALL religions.

I think the French need to look closer at the definition of secular - neither respecting nor prohibiting the free exercise of religion!
They are Run by Satan worshipers they know but follow Satan.
I'm an agnostic from a muslim country. And I had to search what abaya is. It is not a muslim thing like braka as far as I know it. It's just a loose clothing conforming with hijab. Take away the head scarf and it's just regular clothing.
Girls are already banned from wearing the headscarf in schools in France. Now they are banning long dresses (when worn by Arab girls, white girls can get away with it because they can say it is not religious garb if they are not Muslim. It is clearly discrimination.
"laïcité is a liberty, not a restraint..." Except if you wear something a little too ethnic, then we'll absolutely restraint you from coming to school.
No religious stuff in school. If you can not deal with that, french is not a country for you.
It's ridiculous, the boys of that religion wear regular clothes so why not the girls.

The Abaya dress has nothing to do with Islam. Islam and cultural clothes are different. Research facts before speaking on any topic. Abaya is absent in many muslim countries.
What does a abaya has to do with education? Proper madness😮😮😮😮!!!!!
From what I've read the abaya robe seems to be more of a traditional rather than a religious garment. If you live and work in a country with different traditions/rules I think it's fair to be asked to make comprises to assimilate into local institutions. It's not like there's an outright ban on the abaya robe. You can still wear it at home and outside of schools etc.
I think it’s the forcing women to wear stuff. Let people wear what they want…as long as they’re getting an education.
you clearly don't understand, that the abaya is a form of clothing that meets the requirements of the religion dress code.
@@hmmmmm2634 Why should there be an exception for Muslims? No other religious group is allowed to wear religious clothing or symbols in French schools!

When india banned hijab in schools , you BBC called it Islamophobia
Does anyone want to mention about westerners having to "cover up" when visiting certain countries? We all have to compromise when living/visiting different countries. If it means so much to wear certain types of clothing the there are plenty of places that would accommodate.
I literally mentioned it replying to someone in my comment. And this is coming from a muslim girl. In a muslim country you gotta dress modestly and if you visit mosques then you've to wear a headscarf. So yeah I dont mind any non muslim country coming up with such laws.
Exactly
Name 5 countries that you've been to and you or anyone you know has experienced this or is this just BBC bias media portrayal?
It disgusts me to see any Western liberal women gushing over the Islamic dress codes. "Ooh, rock that Hajib!" Let these extremists of performative acceptance move to Waziristan or other provinces around the globe where the true nature of many Islamic societies (or any fundmentalists!) will show their face. Let them move to Pakistan, Indonesia, African countries or even HIndu parts of India, where churches get burned with people in them and atheists are in even worse peril with not even a minority left to defend them. Then these fools will appreciate the need to defend against gross encroachments upon individual liberties and rights to be who you want to be.
@@aafiaturkey6748 - Even in fundamentalist communities of Jews in NYC, women have been spit on the back by locals for not dressing according to fundamentalist standards. Even in conservative Christian places in Europe, I have seen women hissed at and men given scornful looks for not dressing conservatively. Certainly, if you think oppression does not exist based on what you wear, why don't you travel to any back-country town in Libya, Mali, Afghanistan, or Indonesia with a tight skirt and halter top, or even a t-shirt saying "Jesus can save you!" on it. You'll see how people feel about how you should dress.
Abayas are literally maxi dresses, so if someone wears a maxi dress will they be sent home too?
You cannot ID a girls religion in a Maxi dress, you can in an Abaya. If Christians cannot wear crucifixes and Jews cannot wear Yarmulkes etc, then these young gals can march to the store, buy a long skirt or pants, loose blouse and bandana or kerchief (or maxi dress) and cover what they are supposed to cover, "coverage" is the important part of the argument. I know many Muslims say that the Koran is actually quite vague about clothing, and there are almost no specific mandates beyond dressing "modestly". Most of them actually do wear longer skirts and pants, looser blouses/tops with long sleeves and collars or crew necks, and few none wear scarves or hats unless it is cold. Because to them, the long sleeves and pants/skirts are "modest" without having the inconvenience of wearing clothes that has been worn by the peoples of the middle east, for thousands of years, long before Judaism, Christianity or Islam even existed. France is not the desert, it is not the middle east and these girls CAN dress modestly (get a maxi dress) and still leave thier religious ID at home. "Modest" can mean alot of things and those girls don't have to wear a Muslim nuns habit to school, even if thier daddies say they have to dress like a nun at the grocery store and to the swimming pool.
God help you- they are a symbol of something faaaaar more sinister!
France’s slogan is if it isn’t mini it isn’t freeing
Great stuff
Those girls can still be who they are without wearing that abaya. The clothes never made a person.
You don't understand anything, and it's not your business to tell people what to wear
I guess the same argument can be made then- Why make a big deal about not allowing them to wear it?
By your logic there’s no reason to ban it.

@@blackmamba___Its not a big deal. Islamic countries enforce dress codes as the norm and nobody bats an eye.

french people have a habit of not going back to their country. niger has been asking them to leave for weeks but they still wont go back. not surprised that their citizens arent any different.
An abaya is NOT a “traditional Islamic dress”. It’s a form of loose clothing that many Muslim women wear in different Muslim communities around the world. Islam does NOT prescribe down to every detail how a dress should look like… it only prescribes what areas it should cover. Different Muslim communities have come up with different interpretations of those requirements (according to their respective cultures). If you visit India or other multi-cultural/multi-ethnic traditional communities, you’ll notice that non-Muslim women also wear loose clothing (based on their own cultures). This has NOTHING to do with integration or secularism. This is DIRTY POLITICS. Everyone seems to be fine when big government comes down on a population that’s not them… just wait till that government comes knocking on your door.
There are plenty of trash countries that abide by sharia law that these people can migrate to if they want to practice their primitive religion strictly.
Not only Muslims, Jews too prefer to be decent rather than wearing short skirts or tight clothing!
MUSLIM is a religion (Islam), not an ethnicity or nationality, which can be different. You can be French (ethnicity) Canadian (Nationality) or Mexican American, and you could also still be a Muslim either way. Abayas are religious garments no matter what the "details" are, especially since there is no difference between secular and religious clothing among fundamental Muslims. If Christians cannot wear crucifixes and Jews cannot wear Yarmulkes etc, then these young gals can march to the store, buy a long skirt or pants, loose blouse and bandana or kerchief and cover what they are supposed to cover, if (as you claim, which I doubt) "coverage" is the important part of the argument. I know many Muslims say that the Koran is actually quite vague about clothing, and there are almost no specific mandates beyond dressing "modestly". Most of them actually do wear longer skirts and pants, looser blouses/tops with long sleeves and collars or crew necks, and few none wear scarves or hats unless it is cold. Because to them, the long sleeves and pants/skirts are "modest" without having the inconvenience of wearing clothes that has been worn by the peoples of the middle east, for thousands of years, long before Judaism, Christianity or Islam even existed. France is not the desert, it is not the middle east and these girls CAN dress modestly and still leave thier religious garb at home. "Modest" can mean alot of things and those girls don't have to wear a Muslim nuns habit to school, even if thier daddies say they have to dress like a nun at the grocery store and to the swimming pool.
It's still about cultural integration, religious or not. 👍
@@rosameryrojas-delcerro1059 that’s fine, as long as there’s consistency. Tell me, how far should the state go when it comes to ordering how citizens represent themselves? Muslims typically have muslim names… you can easily tell their background from that. Should they have nonMuslim names for school/work and muslim names for home? Does that go for every community or just Muslims? Should the state enforce that? If so, then how?
If boys can dress like girls to school, and girls like boys, then I see no issue with a girl wearing a Islamic clothing
the issue is that it has nothing to do with religion, do yr research and see how woman scream in iran and afghan.
islam is a invassive, woman hating violent horror and should be forbidden
Well done! 👏
I think there is the most safety concern because abaya covers the face and can be used by criminals or boy/man’s for raping girls in school/public restrooms. In my opinion, if you would like to wear abaya - move back to the society that welcomes it. France has a different culture that has to be respected.
same as the middle east, has a different culture so respect it yh
Show me a case that abaya covers was used for the purpose of committing crimes.
i don't think kids really have the choice of where they live

It's not like they are banning _exclusively_ islamic attire - they're banning ALL religious symbols, items, clothing, etc., from ALL religions....its not a double standard that is specifically discriminating against muslim students. its a blanket ban on _anything_ that is religious, not only limited to islam.
besides, u can always wear it outside of school.
Seems like they can't undrestand that sadly 🤷
nope turbans are still allowed
No, they're not.
This is against Muslim attire and you know it.
Cut the crap.
An abaya is not an Islamic symbol, is a piece of lose clothing that become famous in Islam as it’s so covering for women. Nuns wear something similar. The point is to be all covered loosely to not expose the shape of the body. The fact that they’re not allowing girls to fully cover themselves is crazy
@@daisy_oe they understand but don't want to accept it and is trying to make themselves victim
You can be topless but you can’t wear an abaya…..???
You can be topless. Crop top are also banned for exemple.
Can any1 tell what is abhaya ???is it same as hijab🤔

When you emigrate to a country, abide by that countries customs, laws and norms.
Dont go there and start insisting on doing things your own way, then when they insist you comply you start playing the victim..
Dont emigrate to countries which dont share your customs and norms simple..
The French have not set a good example have they really as they never once followed the cultural norms, traditions and clothing of the countries they once occupied. Why should they dictate what others wear ?
Why do people speak French in Africa and the Caribbean again?
Indeed…so it’s about time Europeans got the f out of the Americas, Australia and Africa and took their’ culture’ with them….all 300 + years of it

If Governments utilise separation of Church & State to maintain a consistent level of equality & balance within it's Laws & regulations-why not schools?
How does a girl wearing an abaya affect her education? Is she forcing Islam on other students? I don't think so.
Indeed. So why do we have Christmas holidays, Easter holidays etc. Separate completely.
Because oppression is not ok in a supposed land of liberty.
Is it séparation you don’t understand ?
The State just made a law about a religion.
It’s ironic separation of church and state, but they all become god fearing Christians the moment they decide to run for office. SMH
From a professor in France: Kids don't decide, teachers do. You don't show up naked, you don't show up in religious garb. You don't behead teachers, you don't murder secular cartoonists. Fare thee well.
U don't go in other peoples countries still there resources...leave them below the poverty line and carpet bomb countries for resource and say your saving the world...truly ignorant and sick
Is the name of the country spelled France or Frauns?
Submitting to masters is quite acceptable except when they are not members of the cult. I still do not understand.
Schools should be Secular if certain community does not follow the law they should be thrown out
So all laws are just and should be accepted without question?
Cool. But you can’t say that the French government is blameless. For starters, they never should’ve taught French to the people they conquered (probably wasn’t a good idea to begin with… but oh well, sh!t happens). It should also make it crystal clear that: practicing Jews, Sikhs, Hindus, Muslims, etc. are not welcome (only certain kinds of faith practitioners are welcome). It should also up the declining birth rate among native French so that it won’t depend on foreigners (especially non-Europeans).
It’s very easy and very convenient for secular people who’ve lived in 1 country for generations to tell new comers to neatly separate their identities and conform to local norms (which aren’t fixed anyway). I just hope I get to see a time when your kids have to travel to foreign lands for work and are forced to assimilate to foreign cultures.
Then why are they forcing them to dress to Christian standards of decency and dress. Carlisle and Kim Jung un will be proud. Hair styles will be next, they can used the Kim's list of acceptable ones.
Yeah, you go to a foreign country, you're supposed to abide by the local rules, laws and customs.

In France and Afghanistan, schools are sending girls back home.. how far we've come!
That is not true because in France they are sending Girls and Boys home who don't Comply with the ban of the abaya and kameez in school. In France, they will be allowed back in school when they fall in line with the majority of students. In Afghanistan, they deny Girls any secondary education.
@@hannaht2068in Afghanistan too, girls will be permitted back to school once the curriculum influenced by colonial ideologies is eliminated.
concerning france, I didn't know the champion of women's rights and freedom forces minorities to "fall in line with the majority".
the Taliban are at least consistent with their self-professed principles, unlike France, which is hypocritical.
@@jacer5677 Maybe those few people who don't want to abide the laws in France should go to Afghanistan for their education and be allowed to wear what they like at the same time, A win-win for everyone?
@@hannaht2068
Your ironic suggestion seems to imply that visiting Afghanistan would make someone appreciate the merits of the Western world. However, the reality is that a trip to Afghanistan would reveal a nation that the West has spent two decades bombing and committing countless war crimes.. In reality, Afghanistan serves as a symbol of the violence and lack of regard for human rights of the Western world.
(For you information the girls defying this discriminatory law are definitely french nationals, otherwise they wouldn't dare)
@@jacer5677 Well they can stay at home Until the discriminatory law Changes.😂
Great!
Every country has it's norms & laws. The seperation of church & state is a biggie. When you come to a country, assimilation is important.
Islamic countries enforce dress codes as the norm and nobody bats an eye. Why do people think France pursuing secularism is any less a just reflection of its values?
*its
Were you expelled from school too?
Spelling is important too.
Give it a try, sometime.
Incorrect.
Human rights charter should guarantee no discrimination.
Society is falling apart in france and they are concerned about this?
The sheer stupidity of you sheep..
Clear diversion tactic...
Assimilation is not actually something aspire to. Peaceful co-existence is a much more admirable goal.
As they should. Vive la France!
Ask the Algerians, it's similar to what the French did to them. And it was just the beginning

Bravo France! The rest of the Europe should follow!
Interesting! Then let’s go full secular and end the Christmas and Easter holidays.
France was a mostly Catholic country until the illegal invaders came. If they don’t like the rules they can go back to where they came from.
Even Saudi Arabia has banned this garb in schools. The UK government should follow and ban it here too.
