Modesty is an integral part of the IslaÌ„mic faÌ„ith. Muslims (both men and women) are instructed to be modest and abide by the rules and regulations of HijaÌ„b. An outward manifestation of HijaÌ„b for women is the scarf which is being targeted by Ofsted. It is not merely a piece of cloth but an act of worship. Ofsted has decided to impede an act of worship, granted that it may not be an obligation or a duty upon small girls. Parents have the unalienable right to teach, set an example and nurture good values in their children. How can anyone see a little girl with a scarf on her head as “sexualisation”? Equating (an act of worship) with “sexualisation” is plainly absurd! Ms Spielman previously saw children in hi-vis jackets as “tiny construction workers” and now she sees little girls with scarves on their heads as “sexualised”?
