Omg - She said that covering her (woman's) face, gives them a higher status in Islam. What a bunch of manipulating bull crap the men tell them. And yes, it does defined you. You look scary and indecent in Canadian culture. It doesn't belong here. This country was fought for and built on - Christian/Jewish Faith. That's what our laws provide for. It doesn't provide for Islamic law, nor will it in the future. You don't get to piggy back on the life and death of people who fought and died for their democractic rights. Show me one Muslim country where the people fought for the right to independence and freedom. It doesn't exist anywhere in the world.

this issu is have some reality some muslims over acting unacceptable.first they should know they are living nonislamic country.secondly don't be extremist it lead problem now western looking forwad this kind of problem for political issu and give pressure muslim society in international level.other thing is why muslims follow dress not mention in quran or haddis? i think this is role model of saudi arabia.

The niqab looks ridiculous.  It looks like what a bank robber or someone with a facial defect would wear.  The hijab should not be mandatory either.   Even the Quaran is not specific about the modest attire it prescribes (for both sexes).  There is too much pressure for Muslim women to put on this stupid attire.   It's pathetic that Muslims have to fear speaking out to even mildly criticize their religion and truly horrifying that most Muslims actually support killing people for leaving the religion.

Just look at Muslim attire, and how the women are forced to dress in all black. It is demonic and oppressive. Why be a victim of organized religion when we can be liberated and be disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ!

That's not why muslims wear headscarfs and burkas. It was because Muhammad didn't want anyone to look at his women, so he covered them up so only he could see their beauty. No women aren't given a higher status in islam.

Being a Muslim woman must be very sad, in countries where Islam is the main religion they can't choose how to dress, they can't choose to have a career, they can chose who to marry, they can't choose their religion, and Islam also endorse husband to beat his wife if necessary. To the women who wear the niqab: do you really think that God is so stupid to judge you by what you wear??? God looks at your heart.\nThen, we can discuss about how much the US destabilised the middle east, but in general Islam doesn't fit well in a globalised world and created no social and economic development in the last 100 years. There are small exceptions (Qatar, UAE) who found oil under their ass, but in general a society who wants to live and do things like 1.600 years ago can only bring inequality and no progress whatsoever.

As a Muslim living in Canada, I don't see the harm in a woman wanting to cover herself, I wear the head scarf myself, but in my opinions I don't feel the need to cover myself to prove I am more modest or a better Muslim.  I believe everyone has free will and has the right in this Country to dress the way that the law has allowed them to.  No one has the right to tell someone how to dress, not even the Prime Minister himself.  Telling a woman what she can and cannot wear is oppression.  I truly believe that if Muslims want to live in Western civilization, then they should refrain from covering their faces because the face is our identity and People have the right to know who you are and what your face looks like.  You cannot vote with a covered face, you cannot cover your face in a passport photo, you cannot cover your face for your driver's licence etc... I am a Muslim woman and I say this.  It truly is a shame how the media is portraying Islam and the Muslim people as a whole, and it truly is a shame that Canadians have become so ignorant.  I see more ignorance and racism in Canada than I do in America and 9/11 took place in America.  If you want to know about Islam, learn about Islam from a Muslim, a Library, google Islam, or offer to spend a few days with a Muslim family for research to get a better understanding of Islam and Muslims.  As a Muslim myself I can understand the hatred and the ignorance because we act according to how we were taught and raised, and yes we have many extremists claiming to follow the Islamic faith.  These extremists are not only hurting Western civilization, but they are also hurting the peaceful moderate Muslims that value their rights and freedoms as Canadians.  I do not appreciate ISIS hijacking my religion, I do not appreciate Hamas or Hezballah hijacking my Religion because I am a very accepting person and a very open minded Muslim and to be defined by media as a problem or a terrorist is very hurtful and a shame.

Interesting tidbit. My neighbors across from my apartment are Muslims. Normal, non extremist Muslims. They have 3 children. A girl around 9 and two boys around 4 and 7. It was heart-breaking to watch the poor daughter wear long sleeve cotton shirts, long cotton leggings, and a heavy dress over that in addition to a headscarf in 100+ heat this last summer. No AC in our apartments and her family is dressing her like it's 60 degrees outside with heavy fabrics and no airflow. She hasn't even hit puberty, yet only her brothers were able to run around in tshirts and shorts enjoying themselves. She always just sat around looking bored watching the other kids play.

Liberal muslims like that make Islam look bad

Terrorism is not a problem people. Wake up, it's propaganda. Harper is pro American and look at the state they are in!\nWith that being said, Muslims need to back the fuck off and stop trying to change the Canadian way. Which means, Merry Christmas, not happy holidays.\nWhich means, if you want to be a cop, you abide by the fucking dress code.\n\netc etc

God gave us a face with the ability to make gestures so we can communicate. When I look at a niqab covered lady I lose any desire to communicate. And if I'm not mistaken they won't talk to me anyway as I'm an unrelated male. So to say that they are marginalised is true but it is through their own choice. What I find really strange as a westerner living in Indonesia (world's most populous Muslim nation) is that I see more niqabs in Australia (home country) than what I do here in Indonesia.

I thought muslims comes to Europe looking for personal freedoms, not for this shit.

I am not a Muslim but: in some parts I understand them! Yes, just look at a town, drunken people doing stupid stuff. Police cant catch everyone. No one cares about each other. A little to extrem but not a bad direction at all.

Enough is enough. America, wake up over 500,000 Muslim/Refugees being relocated to the United States. Did you vote for that? Of course not. For the real truth Google “TheProjectMuslimBrotherhood” their secret doctrine to destroy America from within.  Guess what they are succeeding folks. One only has to look at England and France and Europe today, It is sad what Paris has become, mainly due to the Muslim immigration; take a good look at Europe and that is America in 25 years, unless something is done to prevent “theprojectmuslimbrotherhood” from making further inroads into America, our cities, schools, universities and even our own government.  Multiculturalism is literally destroying Europe. There are now over 700 “Islamic no go Muslim Zones” within England, France and Germany. \nMichigan, Tennessee, California and Colorado have so far most of the immigrants what State next? I have no problem with the “peaceful Muslim” that wants to integrate into our culture and follow our laws.  The problem lies in that they want to dominate and force Islam and Sharia law upon us all. Just not acceptable here in America folks. Stand up and be counted.  “When good men and woman our quiet evil always wins”  Forget about be labeled a racist, or being politically correct, multiculturalism is not good for America. Let them adopt to our culture, period Amen. Again for facts and truth Google “theprojectmuslimbrotherhood” speaks volumes on the intent to destroy us from within. Who will stop this “insanity” from becoming a reality in America? Join ACT today, a non violent association with over 600 chapters throughout America and the World, to stop radical Islam and Sharia Law from making further inroads into our culture. Jews, Christians, Priests are being murdered and churches are being burned to the ground, enough is enough folks. Stand up and be counted to defeat this real threat upon America. Enough is really enough folks.

If they want sharia law, why not move back to their own countries where it's already imposed? This is disgusting, they want to change every place they go to and adapt it by their own beliefs, but if you go to a muslim country you have to cover up and live by their own rules of course. I have to say, i was in East Ham the other day with my bf, kissing on the street and this muslim guy giving us ugly stares. I just looked straight in his face and smiled. -----

This is how muslims started in Egypt, Syria, libanon...Look at these shitholes now...\n\nHow long does it takes that we Europeans stand up to this terrible invasion.\n\nI am having nightmares and worry about my kids. They will have kids too. I dont want my grandchildren wear towels, burka etc. and live under shariah law. \n\n \n\n

The most priest of muslim's body don't decompose, they are preserved intact. You want your website source, your on it right now. Just search > muslims shahid body. I challenge anyone to show me the body of a christian. The moment they die, their body STICKS ! I challenge anyone to say other wise. I dismissed it because you are a hypocrite. You claim to say the truth but verily if you look around, this beautiful universe, no science created this. You wish to forget about god. May he forget you to

yeah resist the arest and fuck himself even more lol where do u live dude....burstim him out would look cute if only people werent THIS terrified and scared about their own life and the life of their family, look at tommy robinson, his wife and kids are trheatened day by day by the muslims,this isnt our country anymore

What the fuck is wrong with them ! why can't they mind their own business there is a time I used to be a Muslim will not any more they have got some issues ! they are blinded and retarded and so Minded , This kinda petrol is wrong what makes me really angry that they are targeting gays and everyone who doesn't look like them \n\nWell Fuck all of them !

Muslim patrol on the look out for some kiddies to fiddle with!

No cant tell you in all countrys but in lebanon it was israel, and in pakistan it was the US. i can look up more but its no meaning right now. \n\nsaudi arabia? lol they do what the US tells them. all corrupt in the countrys by the US. if the ppl chould just do what they want and belive in islam it whould be good.\n\nislam is about pace and not hate. but whats the problem with islam? NOTHING. but with muslims? very much.\n\nsry but we cant put muslim and islam together.\n\nIslam = perfect\nmuslim = not

I hope they accept the mission soon cos i have to take a 20 minute detours cos of these non muslim no go areas nowadays just so i'm not looking over my shoulder , 4 days ago they stood on a UK war memorial blocking locals from paying respects whilst waving a flag of jihad & when a few locals protested the next days headlines were 'EDL attack peaceful protest' It's like our own country's against us :(

Oh please, muslims can't even get along among theirselves.\n\nYou really think that if the whole world followed islam their would be peace? Just look at the middle east to see sunni's and shia's killing eachother.\n\nYou are a deluded, religious zealout, and your kind is hated with reason.

'Not by might, not by power, but by my Spirit, says the Lord'. Jesus is more powerful than satan, sin, or any frenzied, mysogenistic death cult. Be patient and Islam will fade, as it has in any country which has stood to resist it. 'Any power that is divided against itself cannot stand'. This is true for Islam. Look at any 100% Muslim country and see the truth right there. The strength you speak of is only brutality, with no nobility, humility or courage except in the mob.

urban dictionary definition of muslim ...look it up

Yes I did hear, you might want to take a second look at that. They aren't using Hinduism to justify their actions, Ironically they are defending themselves from...guess who!?...muslims. And Israel is defending themselves from ...guess who!?...muslims.

I'm a Muslim, there nothing wrong with Islam it's the fucking extremeists, who need to get out of here, they are making proper Muslims , look bad , so please fuck off you extremists, we don't need you here

Inb4 Raged Muslim.\nI'm Muslim myself and sometimes I'm ashamed to be because some of you make us look really bad.

LOL. These guys are even looked down on by the Muslims in their own area. Their leader teaches them nothing but to go out and do foolish things! No wisdom, no how-to, nothing! They don't even know how to read the Qur'an!!\nIt's sad that this group has to taint the work of all the other proper Muslims in that area.

I have a simple question to you but i seriously doubt you would be able to understand since it looks like you have been brainwashed and possibly molested in your madarsa. \nCan sharia law be established in an Non-Islamic Country? \nIf you want to chop peoples hand off and go around threatening people in the streets then why not movie to Saudi? \nDoes UK not give more rights to Muslims then the so called majority Muslim countries does to its citizens?\nFYI: We don't deny the Ahadith.

Oh really I bet I could debate your islam with you and beat you hands down I have studies your evil cult my friend & it's not a peaceful religion by any means, don't even get me started, YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH. 'islam is a form os government' ummmm who are you quoting cause it's not me?!? Silly!!! Although it is true but it's more like a totalitarian regime, a political ideology that encompasses a country, take a look at the middle east & other muslim countries for examples! Silly boy!! :)

No-one looks at people like you because waht you do in day to day life is called being a functioning, contributing human being MILLIONS of people do this EVERYDAY regardless of religion, sex, age, gender colour etc. Do you want an award for being a decent human being & a muslim?? What society has a problem with is the muslim extremists spreading thier ideology of hate, violence & oppression & them trying to impose it in FREE, SECULAR SOCIETIES, is there another religion today that acts this way?

i think cos they're scared and don't want to look islamaphobic because they think it's racist. Islamaphobia is a rational fear as long as it involves sharia law! It's not that bad and half the muslims i meet are actually really nice but videos like this just remind me how dangerous it cud be.

I agree with this! See, their is middle ground!!! Of course, I can not stop you from drinking, but you should not walk into a mosque with such things and try not to be loud/disruptive around mosques (or any other places of worship) after your done drinking. Most Muslims are like myself, but no one looks. No one looks at the Muslims doing the little good deeds that make a difference (Clothinghomeless, helping teachers, feeding orphans) the focus is always on some fringe group that causes problems

Sharia law also states to be kind to others now if you wanna live by sharia you implement at home. I guess what am saying is look at yourselves before going streets and trying to tell others to do things. it maybe a muslim area its not a muslim country tho, if you really wanna do something go to the middle east and hep out there, patrol some streets there and better the country that already usues the sharia system. Oh and please dont disrespect islam with stupid posts your not hard or funny.
