there are also widespread stereotypes towards women within some sectors of the Muslim community which may also make it difficult for Muslim women to integrate in the workplace and get promoted. There was a report last year which suggested Afro-Caribbean women were making significant career progress in Britain, which may reflect that communities reaction towards women working or a combination of other biases

absolutely correct, until and unless, women are respected by their own community members, their position won’t be respected by others as well. We experience same kind of situation in India as well, women are given secondary position and hence, female foeticide is a quite prevalent in here.

This prejudice behavior can only be rooted out by the community itself so that women may show the world that they are fully equipped in reigning any kind of situation in any type of workplace.

yes women in any community should be respected but in this case it is mostly to due to baised view of Western world about Muslim women...They are unreasonably sacred of niqabs and headgears...They think every muslim is a terrorist ..which cant be more wrong as we are just ordinary people living our life..our daily stuggle with life just like them ...They laws too are so discriminting and they themself are responsible to create some monsters out of humble religion... Give muslim women chance to work without considering what they are wearing.

Before saying ”the law is discriminating” or ”Give muslim women chance to work” we must admit that Islam reduces the job opportunities for women in many of Western Economic Activities, Islam dosen’t accept women to be a Fashion Model or work in marketing or advertising businesses, These activities need high fashion sense, graceful caracter and keeping fisical appearance in sexy shape which requires coping with critisism. Islam doesn’t allow for a Muslim to sell alcoholic beverage or pork, Islam has different banking system as interest taking is prohibited. Muslims don’t accept critics that reduce the quality of their religion as absolute and superior one. Muslims don’t renounce prayer time, this develops their unique identity and makes them different than the others which missleads the people about their message to the world. Do they wont justice or they want absolute mixture of a ”State and religion”? Muslims are asked to make it clear, they should be intelligent in their answer, in words and in actions. The whole world is busy in one issue waiting for an answer, till now, the only answer is ” People in the west ignore what is Islam, they should read more to understand more about Islam as a religion of tolerance and peace” this answer doesn’t have effect so far. Which side will change his mind? tell then the misunderstanding between the two cultures will cause troubles to many innocent people.
