WHAT DOES BURCA MEAN IN PORTUGUESE?

Burca

The burqa is a female garment that covers the whole body, even the face and eyes, but in the eyes there is a net to be able to see. It is used by women in Iran, Afghanistan and Pakistan, in areas near the border with Afghanistan. It is a symbol of the Taliban. Its use is due to the fact that many Muslims believe that the Islamic holy book, the Koran, and other sources of study, such as Hadith and Sunnah, require men and women to dress and behave modestly in public. However, this demand has been interpreted in different ways by Islamic scholars and Muslim communities; the burqa is not specifically mentioned in the Koran or in the Hadith. The Taliban religious community, which commanded Afghanistan in the 2000s, imposed its use on the country. To some scholars, the Hadith speaks of completely covering the body of women, while others interpret that it is permissible to leave the face, hands and occasionally feet uncovered. The burqa was banned in France on July 17, 2010, by Law No. 524, which came into force six months after its promulgation.
