The Hijab
Originally uploaded by firoze shakir photographerno1
Hijab
Muslim women’s volition
Freedom of religious expression
Not a symbol of oppression
Islamic garb of recognition
A garment in the news edition
Everyone want its abolition
Used by the Mullah and the politician
For votes notes as ammunition
To achieve a notoriety of ambition
Also used by the Islamic rhetorician
Some terrorists and jihadis in addition
Use it for sedition
Malika Sherawat
Himesh Reshamiya
The Imam of the Lal Masjid
Wore the Hijab
To sensationalize
their weakened position
from the glares of the media
and their bad skin condition
Some say the Hijab
is a garment of submission
But some want its demolition
Some want to burn it down
With fast and quick ignition
Taslima Nasrin part of this opposition
She is an atheist by her own admission
Muslim hating
dead against all Islamic tradition
Hijab a garment of modesty by definition
To cover up all womanly inhibition
Love poetry Hate racism
