In the city of Lyon, some Muslim women wear the traditional veil, some don't. France is a secular state, and to live up to one's religion is not always easy. Nazah Bouguera works in a nursing home, she moved to France in 1963. To do the five daily prayers that Islam requires, she has to adapt her schedule. Another way to avoid attracting attention, Nazah also gave up wearing the veil. Her French lifestyle changed her methods of worship. For some other people however, it's the opposite; Salima was raised in a typical French family, she converted to Islam when she was 14 years old. She is one of the rare veiled women willing to comment on the way Muslims women live in France. She would like to wear her veil to work as a civil servant, but can't.

    Could be carried out according to their religious rules and laws which is more than the west have offered muslims. France has gone as far as to stop muslim women from practising their religion.

  • @uraldneprvw

    No. In Islam you are free to choose your religion. There is no compulsion in religion. This is a verse from the Quran. God allows every man to choose his own religion in islam. This is why when we had the islamic state (Khilafah state) from the 7th century to 1924, non muslims lived alongside with muslims and they were allowed to practice their religion. They were also allowed to have their own courts where matter such as marriage, divorce, inheritence could be carried

  • @mrblurblur2003 This woman is not stupid. France doesn't even allow women to wear a scarf on their heads. All France offers women is to take their cloths of and this is degrading to women.

  • @na121262 Shut the hell up, long live secular, chic and sexy France !!! We don't need your god and I hate when someone says what we have to believe in. YOU sir are blindly following your religion, which is the most dangerous thing man has ever done. Women are happy and free in our country ! Everywhere there's a muslim community they face harassment and aggressions, be it in Paris or Brussels... Stop being foolish dogs and telling us what to do, and become a nice moderate muslim.

  • the woman is damn stupid. she dont know how to appreciate the freedom france offers.

  • RIYADH, S.ARABIA (Worthy News)– Police arrested 29 Ethiopian Christian women attending a prayer meeting in Jeddah Dec. 22, 2011

    International Christian Concern."We are particularly concerned about the children of the detained Christians"

    They are forced to stand or sleep on the top of other prisoners by taking turns

    Police put her hand in their private parts using a single glove to all of them without changing the glove, they couldn’t handle the situation but rather die.

    Their crime? Christians

  • Maybe if she'd been born in a Muslin country she would appreciate her born freedoms...

    even now she still doesn't get it... to wear that in Muslim countries is not a choice.

    Some people will do anything for attention and to be "different" what anoys me is how they interview her and things she say appear noble as if she is standing up for something when in reality she is a lost spoiled unappreciative brat.

  • ma pauvre, si tu veux etre soumise faut tapper à ma porte la nuit, laisse tomber ton livre de mes 2 !
