[Regnum] The Spiritual Administration of Muslims (DUM) of Russia is ready to support the ban on wearing the niqab if the connection of this item of women's clothing with extremism is proven. This was stated by the deputy head of the Muslim Spiritual Directorate, Mufti of Moscow Ildar Alyautdinov, writes Gazeta.Ru on May 24.
According to him, the Muslim Spiritual Directorate will approve the proposal of the head of the Human Rights Council under the President of Russia Valery Fadeev to ban the niqab if Russian officials identify a direct connection between the wearing of fully covered clothing by Muslim women and the increase in threats associated with extremism. In this case, banning the niqab will help save the lives of citizens.
Alyautdinov noted that the Muslim Spiritual Directorate is always ready for dialogue, especially on issues related to people’s safety. He added that the spiritual administration does not promote wearing a niqab, considering the choice in favor of the hijab to be more correct.
As Regnum reported, Fadeev previously proposed banning in Russia the wearing of the niqab, a traditional Muslim women's headdress that leaves only the eyes exposed. Fadeev explained that this forced measure is designed to reduce the risks of extremism.
Alyautdinov responded to this by saying that Russia is reaching a new level of strengthening relations with the countries of the East, so difficulties may arise due to the ban on the niqab. These attempts, he added, would look like a clear act of violation of the norms of secular law and the Constitution, which guarantees citizens of the Russian Federation the right to freely observe religious canons. The Council of Ulema of the Muslim Spiritual Directorate of Russia is always ready to discuss this initiative with the authorities, the mufti clarified.
