In several years there is a possibility we may see a statement like this: "As a Muslim woman, I used to cover my face and wear a niqab, but many years ago I decided to adhere to the Government's law on face covering. I did some research and found that it is not part of our faith, since there is no mention of a face  covering in the Quran, many scholars feel that this practice was started by husbands who did not want other men to "cast their eyes" on their wives. I have a new sense of freedom and of belonging to a modern society. I still practice my faith on a daily basis and would like to say 'thank you' to the politicians who have helped me on my journey."
