No wonder that Westerners attack Muslims and accuse them of being vulgar because this is how we represent ourselves. When one of us makes a mistake we attack him or her using the worst words on earth while we simply let go any Western assault. I read this article twice and found nothing against Hijab. On the contrary, the writer is reflecting her love and commitment to her Hijab. What she is criticizing is the exaggeration in prices and the use of this religious code as a commercial item and fashion wave. By the way, abaya is not an equivalent to Hijab. The lady did not say she doesn't wear Hijab in Newcastle but for sure, she doesn't wear abaya. Please read her last two columns in the Saudi Gazette archive then apologize for this harsh criticism.
