Abstract
Segments of British society continue to feel uneasy about the idea of Muslim religious dress, particularly when it concerns the covering of women’s faces. The recent debate triggered by a Birmingham court’s introduction and then reversion of a ban on defendants wearing the veil presents a meaningful opportunity for non-Muslims to learn about the significance of religious dress to Islam, argues Claire Overman.
