Comment on In some heavy Muslim countries women seems always to wear a black hijab and get in trouble for not wearing one. Why don't they wear colorful ones or with slogans? Is black all to wear?

  Every culture interprets modesty differently. Many muslim cultures don’t have hijabs but have other hair coverings similar to the ones Christians and Jewish women are required to wear.

      India isn’t a culturally muslim country and nor us India a country where Islam and the associated modesty rules are heavily imposed.

      Go troll somewhere else.

      Socially constructed idea varies by society.

      Who’d’ve guessed?

      You’ll find very colourfully yet modestly dressed Muslim women in Indonesia, India, Kenya, Senegal, and more.
