A woman in Ilorin told a court to dissolve her two year marriage because she refused to stay in purdah, the News Agency of Nigeria reports.

The purdah practice requires married Muslim women to stay in separate rooms, behind a curtain or dress in all-enveloping clothes, in other to say out of the sight of men or strangers.

But Azanat Bashiru told the court that Mumin Bashiru, her husband of two years and father of their two children, did not tell her before they got married in 2014 that she would be put in purdah.

“This is not in our agreement. I cannot be covering my body with black cloth, including my eyes, all of the time,’’ she said. Mumin did not raise any objection. “If she doesn’t agree to be in purdah, she is free to go,’’ he said. But he demanded custody of their two children.

    Some people just come here to comment without reading the story, she said this was not their agreement that the husband of 2 years did not tell her before they got married. How can a woman put on shit like this in hot sun, why is the men not wearing same if they feel it nice. Rubbish Muslim people you are the cause of the worlds problem I pray God keep fighting for us.

    ,what about the noons that cover up their body? Are they also rubbish? You are just professing Christianity Mr chy but you are not a true believer had it been you are you wouldn’t have condemned some one religion, what we were commanded is just to cover up our body from a stranger ,regardless to the colour of the fabric in as far as it is not transparent or conspicuous.since Muslim are the cause of world problem why can’t you continue killing them on the pretext of terrorism, Israel although they are Jew,they having shelling pelistine,they invaded the pelistine country killing them,their wives, their mother,and any innocent soul,France that she deprives people of their human right,pertaining their religion, Afghanistan where the u s a sent them rockets without rhythm or reàsons,libia where their president was captured by certain. Countries afterwards he was killed, just to mentioned but a few,are those people that oppressed the Muslim are also Muslims? Although, we don’t know perhaps you are a sycophant of certain people or let me say certain county, because I believed a sincere Christian would never condemn or criticize other religion followers,according to the teaching of prophet Isah (Jesus) the son of Mary peace be upon him.Regarding Muslims’dress code(females)trace back the history 2500year back during the period of jesuse ,were their females walking nakedly,exposing their groin?
