France has banned Muslim women from wearing the Islamic abaya to school, arguing the garment breached France's secular laws in education.
France announced a ban Sunday on Muslim women wearing the Islamic abaya to school, declaring the garment breached France’s strict secular laws in education.
“When you walk into a classroom, you shouldn’t be able to identify the pupils’ religion just by looking at them,” Education Minister Gabriel Attal told France’s TF1 TV, adding: “I have decided that the abaya could no longer be worn in schools.” He said he would give “clear rules at the national level” to school heads ahead of the return to classes nationwide from September 4.
The debate on Islamic symbols has intensified since a Chechen refugee beheaded teacher Samuel Paty, who had shown students caricatures of the Prophet Mohammed, near his school in a Paris suburb in 2020.
