Presentation of the topic

The issue of Islamic dress codes is highly debatable. Some see the niqab (the traditional Muslim headscarf) as a tool of oppression, while others believe it is a tool that empowers and inspires women. The women who wear the niqab are not always forced to do it - they choose it willingly and wearing it becomes part of their identity.
