I’m not sure a hijab is a religious symbol. It’s just a covering worn for religious reasons.

The problem is, far rights won't care.

    They will start caring if women show up to meeting with messy hair.

    This not about religion, because a Jewish men will be able to wear the head, and a Muslim will show up to bussinus meeting with prayer beeds. A sikh man will show up with a turban and other with Bindi.

    I believe this is targeted at womens, next we will see a case where a company fire a female because she refuses to wear a skirt or wearing long jackets to cover her pants or something.

    Hardcore christian germans do have silly hair covering rules and such as well though.

    They'll say that's not a symbol.
