520 |a Ḥijāb, an Islamic ethico-religious and socio-cultural symbol, is increasingly becoming visible in the Western public arena giving rise to a debate over its compatibility with dominant Western culture and values.

It provides a discursive framework based on a cultural sociology through which ḥijāb and niqāb could be accepted.
