Firdaus Amasa was not called to bar cos she refused to remove her hijab to conform to the standard of the profession of Law. Her case generated lots of reactions in social media as some quarters are it as preventing her from practicing her religion while some say she ought to know that the profession doesn't allow anything that doesn't go with its standards.

A Twitter user who was present during the happening said she and many others, Christians, muslims, young, old and even a policeman pleaded with her to remove the hijab, go for the call to bar then she can out it back on. She refused to listen to their please and even hurled insults at them. Other Muslim ladies removed their hijab before going in for their assessment. Some even begged her while a relative of hers tried to help her remove the hijab to which she refused. According to the twitter user, when they saw that their begging was falling on deaf ears, they let her be cos she was already becoming a laughing stock.

Didn't she know that the profession she was going to study doesn't allow any dress code other than what is permitted?

This is similar to the case of a religious person whose religion doesn't permit him to see other women's private part but wants to be a doctor, especially the one that delivers babies.
Are we now to say that the vagina of women about to deliver at his hospital should be cut off just to please him? If he can't stand it, he should go find another profession.

Allowing this girl to bring her religious views I to a profession will be disastrous for others. If she is to defend a Christian against a guilty Muslim, she will definitely undermine the case of the Christian just to please the Muslim cos their Prophet said they should never take sides with a non-muslims in a struggle.

Imagine the amount of Christians she will send to loss if she becomes a judge.

Keep your religion away from law.

Look at what their Prophet said to Muslims.

Ibn Kathir v.2 p.213 - No believer shall kill any believer for any non-believer. Nor shall he HELP any non-believer against a believer - People

Sahih Muslim (2167) - "Allah's Messenger said: Do not greet the Jews and the Christians before they greet you and when you meet any one of them on the roads FORCE him to go to the narrowest part of it."

Quran (5:51) - "O you who believe! do not take the Jews and the Christians for friends; they are friends of each other; and whoever amongst you takes them for a friend, then surely he is one of them; surely Allah does not guide the unjust people."

I guess Allah judges muslims by the hijab.

So i guess she ll still have it on wen she z having sex or going to d toilet or bathroom to shower

Rubbish

I just dislike religious people
Carry religion for head like gala

They shouldn't have begged her....Nobody forced her to study law after all

Now they are trying to find some dumb fault to put on her. Typical behaviour.

I truly salute her strength, courage and principles.

This is what a true Muslim should be like, not those so called 'Muslims' who were begging her to disobey her Lord and creator for the sake of some smelling humans that are going to rot in the ground one day, but who seem to believe that their rules are superior to, and must supersede those of the Creator.

Ride on my sister, and may Allah grant you victory over the disbelievers and replace your law degree with what is far better. Lots of lawyers are begging for 'case' on the streets outside the courthouses, wearing worm-eaten okada suits. There is no assurance that your law degree alone would have even provided you with a source of income. At least maintain the fact that Allah's blessings is with you.

It is Allah Alone who provides worldly wealth.

So, Allah allows the disobedience of a simple societal norm that doesn't lure anyone to sin?

Allah sure promotes rebellion.

Unclothing herself before strange men is sin. It is not a simple societal norm. It is a temptation to disobedience. Rebellion against useless man-made rules is necessary when the other option is to rebel against our Creator.

Your approach is the same one that Satan used to entice Adam and his wife to disobey God. Congratulations.

Aloma Mukhtar was an Alhaja and Chief Justice of Nigeria. She used headscarves and not hijabs.

There are tons of Muslim female judges in the judiciary that don't use hijabs, it doesn't make them less pious than this young lady.

This is the legal profession and it's a noble one. It's not for unintelligent farmers, pepper sellers and touts to make emotional but dumb statements on human rights. When the Law School was having the compulsory dinners, why didn't she wear the hijab?

Allah stands for honesty, truth, justice and faith. He won't support this brand of foolishness being displayed by these clowns supporting the aborted lawyer.

Removing the hijab and covering it with a wig is what you call unclothedness?

hmm

Not surprised.. there are always 3 sides to a story.
She told her own lie, but gradually the real truth will reveal itself.

She must be an overzealous person to start with. Her education is a waste

This one too wants to trend. wehdone ma
There are a lot of unwritten rules in this country, we just need someone to challenge the 'status quo '.
I salute your courage ma'am.

You are a fanatic. Contacting SARS on the beat to beat boko haramness out of you.

I have a Muslim brother who graduated with a good grade in medicine but
couldn't find work for almost 3years. All interview were failure back to back
though he is extrememly intelligent. Mere seeing him,his dressing,his beard,u will
know,this man is a Muslim,a very good one.
After 3years of persuasion from people to clear the beard and do some
changes,he got a good job that year. And when he is sharing his experience
now,he used to appreciate those that persuade him,he used to say how he has
helped thousands of Muslim and how he has been fair if he is among panel to
recruit. whether u are Muslim or not,beard or not,he fight so the best can be
employed. He agreed that if he hasn't agreed to the persuasion,he wouldn't have
been able to help those Muslims. He talks alot that I won't share here because of
the sensitivity of religion in this Country. He talks of how other religion used to
help themselves and the reason for Muslims to buckle up
If he has the opportunity to advise this woman that day,though he is a Muslim
too,your guess is as good as mine
only the wise will understand
For me,about this issue,I don't have any comment,but if truly our constitution
gives room for it,y denying her her fundamental right,but if not,I think she
should have chosen to being a teacher then.
I am allergic to insult.lol. Don't quote me or ask me questions. My message can
only be clear to wise,smart and intelligent people.

This girl if wise like the brother above,can become someone who can make decision and modify rules and regulations in d future and even fight it that being Eleha cannot stop u from being a lawyer

not every fight we fight with words or aggressive, sometimes,we need to fight with common sense

Islam is her way of life. Its command of Allah wah subhanallah to cover her hair.

So what of her right to practice her faith of choice?

A lot of religious people fail to realise that their religion is not important.

Humanity before religion.

She doesn't deserve the drink talkless of the bar.

Even before her name was mentioned when this news first came up, I was certain she was not just likely a Yoruba Muslim but was also a Unilorin trained. Belonging in the league of Prof Ishaq Oloyede and that MURIC fella. These ones feel they're better and righteous than every other muslim including the Sultan.

The FG has a duty to look into the activities of these fundamentalist who somehow have made Unilorin their base/training ground. Their brand of islam is hardcore and highly intolerant and unforgiving.

Muslims women in that profession have their right to cover their hair.

What is constant in life is change.

Change is needed to accommodate our islamic believe.

...
Islam is the problem of the world.

It's adherents are arrogant and deadly.
They dress well but hypocritically they do bad tins at night.

I rather worship Buddha than to be a M.

Stop saying what you don't know, even in Saudi Arabia some women go with Open hair wearing only Abaya and mutawa's (religious police) won't do anything to them. Is she more Muslim than Saudis?

alBHAGDADI:

exactly.

She had a wig with which she could cover her head since thy say Satan pisses on them when they expose their head.

Which one is exposing unclothedness again? Is she bald? What is the unclothedness on someone's head?

So all those who removed their hijabs, Muslims who don't wear hijab, and those who wouldn't wear hijab would go to your Muslim hell fire right?
But if you wear the hijab and kill people you will go to Muslim heaven right?

All these ansarudeen Muslims who like to overdo! MURIC people... t

matters arising

How did we get here ?
