Islam is a growing religion and it is a religion that has become quite popular after the attack on the Twin Towers. People were enraged by what happened on 9/11 and they wanted to know why some Muslims would do such a thing. This is when people started to take interest in Islam to learn what it was all about. There were many people that started off by learning about Jihad and understood that Jihad is not something horrible. People have just made this word horrible by depicting it in a negative sense. Individuals in the West went around saying the word "Jihad", but had no clue about what it actually meant. This is when many of them started their own study about Islam. They started reading books, the Qur'an, and so much more so that they could get a better understanding of Islam. One thing led to another and there were many people that wanted to continue with their study.

Islam is a great religion that teaches an individual how to live their life. There are new followers of this religion every single day. However, Islam is losing its true meaning in the minds of many people. People go around calling themselves Muslims, but they do things that totally go against Islam. The Islamic values are deteriorating because people have become so disillusioned by Western ideas. There are so many things exposed on television, songs, and through life experiences that it becomes difficult for a person to discern between right or wrong. Individuals in Muslim countries and even in the West are exposed to so much that it is hard for the Muslim to actually live their life according to the teachings of Islam.

Der Islam gehört zu den größten Religionen der Welt. Es gibt mehr als eine Milliarde Menschen auf diesem Planeten, die zu dieser Religion angehören. Alle grundlegenden Konzepte dieser Religion sind die gleichen in fast allen Regionen der Welt.

Being Muslim it is a great honor for the Muslim community that they believe in such a prophet whose follower are so profoundly attached with his teaching of religion and they have the greatest respect and love even to use his name along with their own name. All Muslim cultures consider it very important to get united with the name of prophet by using the great Muslim name Mohammad with their new generation and even inculcate in the minds of their younger generation the attachment to the name of their Holy prophet. This name of Mohammad may be pronounced and written in different spelling a version of the style but the meaning of all is about the one which is called 'the one who is most praised in this world'. This can be proved by the follower of the Muslim religion that they have shown such attachment to this name of their prophet. Muslim names may be having any prefix or suffix to be attached with this name Mohammad, but they consider it is necessary and foremost important and beneficent for their better fortune and nice living in this world. They think it as peace of mind to be united with this great name.

The controversy of Hijab is the hottest topic in France nowadays. The controversy was also erupted some years back but died down soon. However, this time the government seems committed to impose ban on wearing Hijab for Muslim women especially in schools and offices. The government has also shown its concerns for wearing Veils in different public places for security concerns. The justification given by the French government in support of alleged ban is that it is against the secular values of France. To prove this justification the government also imposed ban on wearing crosses or skull caps for Christian and Jews. If we analyze the act of French government keeping ourselves neutral, it is fairly against the basic freedom rights of the people. Every person has a right to wear whatever he or she likes then how a government can dictate people what to wear and what to not. As far as the justification about secularism concerns, the aspect of basic rights of freedom is far superior to so called secular indications, if the people are not free to enjoy freedom then the secularism is of no use. Moreover, if we look at the scriptures of all the major religions we would reach to a conclusion that Hijab is not the identity of mere Muslim women but all the major religions direct women to wear Hijab. Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism, and Islam all talk about Hijab. So how can we go against the beliefs of billions of people around the world, going against the desires of billions just to serve the vested interests and illogical justifications of a few politicians are absolutely rubbish, senseless and ridicules.

More so than ever before, the roles carried out by Islamic women in society are becoming more diverse and challenging. In the past, the way a Muslim woman dressed would be seen as a potential barrier to integration and to fully participating in society. As attitudes have modernised, so too have styles of dress that can be worn by women with multiple roles to carry out, from mother and wife to office worker and saleswoman. The great thing about the evolution of Islamic dress is that it continues to allow these women to be faithful to their religion while dressing in a modest, luxurious fashion that makes people of all backgrounds appreciate how stylish they look.
