Croatian Muslims Want Hijab in Passport Photos

Topics: Understanding Islam

Leaders of the Muslim minority in Croatia have urged the authorities to allow women to wear the hijab on their passport photographs. "This has nothing to do with religious freedom," said Justice Minister Vesna Skare-Ozbolt.

Very true, but from the perspective of those who are campaigning for women to wear the hijab in the passport photographs, it has everything to do with advancing the Muslim presence in Europe. This is the second time the Muslim minority in predominantly Roman Catholic Croatia raise the hijab issue.
