[KavkazUzel] The Mufti of Chechnya, Salah Mezhiev, called the ban on wearing hijabs in educational institutions in the Vladimir region unconstitutional, and the Coordination Center for Muslims of the North Caucasus, which he heads, called for a legislative ban on regions adopting such decrees.
As reported by the "Caucasian Knot", the Coordination Center of Muslims of the North Caucasus (CCMNC) spoke out against the ban on wearing religious clothing in schools. However, it had previously approved the ban on wearing the niqab. The Coordination Center reminded that it is necessary to separate the hijab and the niqab. On July 13, the center appealed to the President of Russia and the State Duma with a request not to adopt the bill of its vice-speaker Vladislav Davankov on the ban on religious clothing. The muftis of the North Caucasus stated that this decision violates the rights of believers. The government rejected the bill.
The order to ban hijabs in educational institutions of the Vladimir region violates the Constitution, said today the mufti of Chechnya, head of the Coordination Center of Muslims of the North Caucasus Salakh Mezhiyev. He recalled that Russia is a multinational and multi-confessional country, and the ban "specifically and only Islamic religious clothing" is puzzling.
"Islam prescribes that Muslim women wear clothing that covers parts of the body except for the face, hands and feet. We emphasize once again that the legislation of the Russian Federation does not restrict the wearing of the hijab, moreover, it allows photographing in the hijab to obtain a passport. In this regard, there can be no talk of a ban on the hijab, and therefore no violation of the Constitution of the Russian Federation," Mezhiev emphasized.
"Calls to ban the wearing of hijabs in educational institutions are not aimed at ensuring national security. Such calls are illegal," says Mezhiyev's statement, published on October 28 on the Telegram channel of the Spiritual Administration of Muslims of Chechnya.
A similar statement was published on October 28 by the Coordination Center of Muslims of the North Caucasus, headed by Mezhiev. Its authors called on "fighters against girls' headscarves" to direct their efforts toward the formation of traditional Russian spiritual and moral values in educational institutions of the Russian Federation, rather than engaging in "populist illegal bans on religious clothing."
The KCMSC called for "a legal assessment" of the ban on wearing hijabs and "the adoption of legislative acts at the state level that provide for the impossibility of the adoption by the authorities of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation or other bodies of regulations regarding the possibility of banning the wearing of mandatory religious clothing in the Russian Federation," the center's Telegram channel says.
The Ministry of Education and Youth Policy of the Vladimir Region has supplemented the standard requirements for students' clothing with a clause banning hijabs, niqabs and other elements demonstrating the religious affiliation of students. The order of the Ministry of Education and Youth Policy of the Vladimir Region dated October 22 was published on the legal information portal, RIA Novosti reported on October 28.
