[Regnum] The spiritual leader of the Muslims of Dagestan, Akhmad Abdullayev, said that a fatwa (theological and legal opinion) on the ban of the niqab in the republic will be issued in the near future.
“The niqab – our workers are working on this today – we will issue a fatwa banning the niqab,” Abdullayev said at a meeting between the head of the republic, Sergei Melikov, and activists.
According to the spiritual leader, the fatwa will be issued this evening or tomorrow, July 2. Abdullayev emphasized that if a man does not want to show his wife's face, then he should keep her at home. At the same time, the lifting of the ban on the niqab is not planned until there is peace and tranquility in the region, the spiritual leader noted.
Niqab is a type of hijab with a slit for the eyes. The face of a woman wearing a niqab is not visible.
As reported by the Regnum news agency, the day before, the head of the Investigative Committee, Alexander Bastrykin, said that wearing niqabs in Russia should be banned. He asked why the niqab is banned in Asia, but not in Russia.
Before this, presidential adviser and chairman of the Presidential Council for Civil Society and Human Rights Valery Fadeyev proposed banning the wearing of the niqab in Russia on May 19. He recalled that this type of clothing is prohibited in a number of Central Asian countries. Banning the niqab is necessary to reduce the risk of extremism, he explained.
In response, the deputy chairman of the Spiritual Directorate of Muslims of Russia, the mufti of Moscow, Ildar Alyautdinov, said on May 22 that the ban on the niqab may not please the countries of the East, with which Moscow is strengthening relations. At the same time, he referred to freedom of religion and observance of religious canons.
This statement caused controversy among representatives of the Muslim community. On the Islam. news portal, the author Aidar Bariyev recalled that the niqab has nothing to do with religion, while clothing that covers the face makes it difficult to identify a person. He recalled that wearing a niqab is a custom associated with the need to protect the face from sandstorms in the desert. In Russia, there is no need to wear such clothing.
On June 11, State Duma deputy Mikhail Matveyev (CPRF faction) announced that he had sent a bill to the government to ban niqabs in the country. He called it a matter of Russia's security.
On June 20, Tajik President Emomali Rahmon signed laws banning the import, sale, and wearing of clothing in the republic that is alien to the culture of the people. Thus, hijabs were banned. The head of the republic ordered the development of a design for national clothing that adheres to the religious and ethical needs of Tajik women.
