    In Islam, historical references suggest that women in the Prophet Muhammad’s (PBUH) house and the community had to cover their face. The Quran also encourages dressing modestly.

    The verse in the Quran which is the clearest on the requirement of dressing modestly is Surah An-Nur (24:30–31), which says:

    “And say to the believing women that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty; that they should not display their beauty and ornaments except what (must ordinarily) appear thereof.”

    Also Surah Al-Ahzab (33:59): “Tell thy wives and thy daughters and the women of the believers to draw their cloaks close round them…”

    The misuse of Muslim women modest dressing is very common from the old days of Bollywood movies to the incident of entering the toilet. But with increasing the security threat 'Burqa' is seen in the same way Sikh wearing 'Turban' after the assassination of Indira Gandhi.
    The dangers of 'Burqa' or 'Cloak' is used by the political parties like BJP using against opposition Congress party is the new trend.
    As many media house self-censored, I would like to bring to the notice to the reads and commentators how Muslim women modest dressing is misused to target the Congress developments.
    In a new questionnaire released by the BJP social media cell seem to believe that Indians lived in the Stone Age till 26 May 2014.
    It posses set of the question with Prime Minister Modi's picture and one of the questions reads "Congress hides behind a Burqa of secularism to hide its failure".
    This irrelevant subject proves that BJP-RSS nefarious plans to use them for political mileage to divide the nation for majority vote bank ahead of Lok Sabha elections.
    Ironically, none of the Mulsim organizations of the nation had taken note of it or filed a defamation suit against BJP's IT cell for 'Blasphemy' of Islamic Quranic teaching.
