Non-Muslim students at Islamic school forced to wear headscarves

Female students at a new Islamic school will be made to wear head scarves regardless of their religion, it was revealed yesterday. The Madani High School in Leicester will be required by law to accept 10 per cent of its 600 pupils from a non-Muslim background. But girls who are not Muslim will still have to abide by a rule insisting all female pupils cover their heads as part of the uniform. Assistant principal Zainab Elgaziari said he did not regard the demand as a problem - despite the ongoing row over Muslim women's veils. He said: 'I can't see why if a student wears a head scarf it should be an issue. It's the same as a shirt or tie - it's just part of our uniform. 'We will welcome students of other faiths. Indeed, there will be a quota set down by the Government, and we will abide by these rules.

God Bless America.

Instead, she said she felt as if a judge forced her to choose between her case and her religion in a small-claims dispute in Hamtramck District Court.

Judge Paul Paruk said he needed to see her face to judge her truthfulness and gave Muhammad, 42, a choice: take off the veil when testifying or the case would be dismissed. She kept the veil on...

Her case was dismissed.

Sign threat costs vendor his corner

The porno magazines on eye-blitzing display near Independence Hall ran the gamut from slick Penthouse to sleazy CHERI teens. But it was the threatening, handwritten message that seemed to promise rape and worse to anyone who complained about Muhammad Shaukat's newsstand that got city inspectors and legislators on the case of the squat immigrant with poor eyesight and limited writing skills... His sign said, in part, "I gone a f--- his mother, sister, wife or her... who complain my newsstand. Come front of me."..."People were polite to you, giving you an opportunity to provide a service and earn a living," DiCicco said.
