People in the west typically think of the veil as a symbol of “oppression” and the subjugation of women, but the fact of the matter is that in many places, veiling is a choice. You absolutely cannot understand why someone is wearing a veil without asking the person directly, as it is a symbol with many meanings and interpretations. One woman may wear the veil as a symbol of devotion to god, while another may wear it because it makes them feel liberated, among many other reasons.
Do not assume that all Muslim women need “saving.”
