The head of Al-Azhar, the highest seat of learning in the Sunni world,
has ordered a school girl to remove her niqab during a visit to an Al-
Azhar school, saying he would seek an official ban for the face veil
in schools,
“Why are you wearing the niqab while sitting in the class with your
female colleagues?” Al-Azhar Grand Imam Sheikh Mohamed Sayyed Tantawi
asked the 8th grader.
The young girl was shocked with the question coming from the country’s
top scholar.
A teacher intervened to explain.
“She takes off her niqab inside the class, but she only put it on when
you and your entourage came in.”
But Sheikh Tantawi was not satisfied and insisted that the young girl
takes off the face cover.
“The niqab is a tradition and has nothing to do with Islam.”More>>

Wow what a Murtad Munafiq.  What else do you expect from somebody hired by Hosni Mubarak... Anyway, I went to 4-year university, I saw several niqabi girls attend classes and get on with their daily business without any problems, here in the USA. What has this world come too !!!!!!!!!  We live at a time of confusion, just like the prophet Muhammad predicted in which falsehood would be mixed with truth and the liar will be regarded as the trustworthy and the trustworthy individual talking the haqq will be regarded as the liar...

 

Subhanallah.....

hey, niqab surely exists before Islam's rise. so it is right to say
it's a tradition.
while it some times more than tradition.

whether it's islamic symbol or just tradition or both, depends on
one's opinion.
let's think , if niqab is a necessary symbol, what about the women who
don't wear it? isn't she a muslim anymore?

I am not a scholar, so I can't answer that question for you. From what I know, a Muslim girl who takes off her hijab is committing an extremely dangerous sin due to the social ramifications of her actions and what it causes to happen in her family. Now as to her still being in the Millah, if she still believes in the Unity of Allah Azza wa Jal, then she will most likely still be in the millah of islam. However, how can you truly believe in Allah and not fear him enough to cover yourself??????
