Abstract
There is one issue that remains to be discussed. It is one of the criticisms they have made against the hijab, which says that the hijab deprives the honor and respect of a woman. You know that human dignity has become one of the important goals of humanity since the words about human rights have devel-oped. Human dignity is respected and it must be followed; all human beings share in this whether man or woman, black or white, or whatever nation or creed. Every individual has this right of human dignity.
