L' IDENTITA' DIETRO IL VELO
"Siamo credenti, quindi adoriamo Allah sopra ogni altra cosa, perciò i nostri comportamenti derivano dal rispetto per le Sue leggi e i Suoi insegnamenti e cerchiamo di osservarli il meglio possibile. Questo perché i devoti obbediscono al Creatore, che ha stabilito regole ben definite per ognuno. In questo caso, tratteremo quelle che riguardano esclusivamente la donna, partendo dall’ abbigliamento. Noi indossiamo il velo e gli abiti lunghi non perché ce li impongono i nostri padri o i nostri mariti, ma perché, essendo musulmane praticanti, accettiamo spontaneamente di fare ciò che Dio ci chiede tramite il Sacro Corano (10 A) e che viene precisato da un detto del Profeta Mohammed (p. b. s. l.) (6 B). Molte di noi scelgono di non portarlo così come molti cattolici non vanno a messa".

14:10 - IRAQ: DONNE CRISTIANE COSTRETTE AD INDOSSARE IL VELO. UN EDITTO DI MOQTADA AL-SADR
Donne cristiane costrette ad indossare il velo pena gravi conseguenze. E’ l’ultima delle tante vessazioni che le minoranze cristiane stanno subendo dagli integralisti islamici in Iraq. A dare la notizia oggi è l’agenzia assira Aina che riporta la traduzione di una lettera firmata dall’esercito del Mahdi, la milizia di Moqtada al-Sadr, l'imam radicale sciita iracheno, diffusa in questi giorni nella capitale irachena. Nella lettera vengono riportate le parole del martire Mohammad Sadiq al-Sadr: “la Vergine Maria era senza velo, così che alle donne cristiane sia concesso la stessa cosa? E Fatima al-Zahara era senza velo? E le spose dei Califfi nel primo Califfato e dei successivi erano senza velo? No e poi no… Allah lo vieta”. La lettera prosegue affermando che la donna che non indossa il velo “è un’adultera” che “sfida Allah e il suo Profeta e ignora e nega la religione”. Le misure da prendere contro costoro, si legge nel testo, sono che il padre o il marito “le ordinino, in modo cortese, di astenersi da ciò che è proibito. Se rifiuta, allora sia guidata ed educata così da essere convinta. Se non convinta, allora deve essere segregata in casa e non esposta a contatti proibiti con uomini”. La lettera termina con l’avviso che “sono stati creati dei comitati speciali per seguire la vicenda”.

Baghdad (AINA) -- An undated letter issued by Muqtada al-Sadr's Mahdi army to Christians in Baghdad orders Christian women to veil themselves or face grave consequences. The letter, obtained and translated by AINA, states that the Virgin Mary was not unveiled and so Christian women should not be unveiled. The letter ends with an ominous note that committees have been established to monitor the Christian populace and enforce the decree.
For the Christian Assyrians (also known as Chaldeans and Syriacs) in Baghdad, the imposition of Shari'a (Islamic law) is coming from both Sunnis and Shiites. On March 18 al-Qaeda moved into the predominantly Assyrian Dora neighborhood in Baghdad and demanded payment of the jizya (AINA 4-17-2007, 3-18-2007), the poll tax demanded by the Koran which all Christians and Jews must pay. Families that could not pay the jizya were instructed to give a daughter or sister in marriage to a Muslim (AINA 5-18-2007).
Here follows the Mahdi Army letter:
The Legal Veil
Allah be praised, said in His perfect and noble book:
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
(And do not display yourselves like that of the times of ignorance) -- Affirmed Allah the Mighty
Surah Al-Ahzab --- Verse 33
According to Ali, Prince of Believers (peace be upon him), he said, "We were with the Prophet (saas1) and he said, Tell me what is best for women? The Prince of Believers said, when I went back to Fatima (peace be upon her) and told her about what the Prophet (saas) said to us, Fatima said: 'It is best for women not to see men and for the men not to see them.'"
And in the Noble Narrative (She who went out of her home adorned with finery and ornaments or scented with perfumes is under the cursing of Allah, angels and the people all together until she goes back home. Neither a religious duty nor a gift shall be accepted from her until she performs the ritual ablution. )
According to martyr Mohammad Mohammad Sadiq al-Sadr (Sacred be his noble secret): "Was the Virgin Mary (peace be upon her) unveiled so that Christian women be allowed to be unveiled? Was Fatima al-Zahra unveiled? And were the wives of the Caliphs in the First Caliphate or others unveiled? No and then no…Allah forbid and far be it from all of them."
Furthermore, His Eminence Mohammad al-Sadr prohibited self-adoration and not wearing the veil in a number of religious edicts, including:
Question: What is the punishment of the woman who does not commit to the legal veil?
Answer: In the name of the Supreme Being, She is an adulteress, and she even proclaims sinfulness, challenges and fights Allah and his Prophet and ignores and neglects religion. So what would be her fate but hell and that is best outcome for her?
Question: What measure should be taken against a woman who disobeys her father, husband, or her guardian by not committing to the legal veil?
Answer: In the name of the Supreme Being, they must order her in a courteous manner to abstain from the forbidden. If she refuses, he then must guide and educate her religiously in order to convince her. If she is not convinced still, then they must imprison her at home and do not expose her to the forbidden interaction with men.
Note: Based on this, special committees have been established to follow up on this matter and she who is warned is excused.
