However I remember a more stricter, Harder form of muslims took over during the revolution, with the coming of the Imam Khomeini.

But who wanted that?? was it all the people, did they just decide we want to be governed more stricter??

Ok first and foremost, if Iranians did not want the Shah to be ousted and the new regime of Imam Khomeini to begin, then this revolution would not take place. After all, everything is done in each country by the will of the majority people. Iran does follow a strict Islamic Democracy where governing and rules and the constituion is quite strict. They are sexist at times when you can imagine such strict rules imposed only on the women. Many places in Iran, the current President has imposed polygamy as legal as well. The fact is, women are portrayed quite badly in Iran even though 65% of the undergraduate students are women, thus meaning more and more women are more educated. Take Mousavi's wife for instance, people exclaimed her as the next "Michelle Obama", however unlike Mrs. Obama, she has achieved a lot of things in Iran for a woman.

Now whilst its fine to let a country practice whatever religion it wants, why would these stricter muslims want to go to a western country (Which goes completely against their religion) and expect everyone to change for them?

if they need to leave their country for whater reason, war, famine etc, there are plenty of other muslim countries for them to go to.

Some guy mentioned jews earlier, I can't imagine them moving the whole family to iran, or Saudi Arabia, if they tried what do you think would happen??

Alright, France was not as strict as it is trying to become at this moment by imposing such laws on Muslim women. If the bill does pass and the burqa is banned permanently, then I am pretty sure France will be internationally portrayed as a danger zone for Muslims all around the world. Burqas are not demeaning but suppose you are a pious Muslim and you refuse to take off the Burqa in front of the public, how do you think you can show yourself up on a job interview, Western Countries will not hire them for any reason. Most women wearing Burqas are either housewives or unemployed or employed only in their own countries, not another western country. Its sort of an isolation from the community itself.

Why do people migrate to better civilized countries? Because of money, security, safety and a peaceful life. They understand the circumstances of such laws being imposed upon at one point of a time. They know a lot of freedom will be lost and some freedom wll be gained upon your migration to a foreign country and knowingly, they migrate to other countries still for the better reasons.

So I understand Arabic and sorry about that question. do not misunderstand me .

I mean Islamic definition of Hijab which is covering the whole body

And my advice to you to get your religion rubrics from authoritative sites. Not from that pathetic article

I am sorry but you clearly lack true content and valid sources of what you are trying to portray. If you are saying wikipedia posseses false information, then you should take it up with them. I know for a fact and I will not allow you to tell the whole world that "Burqas are compulsory for all Muslim Women". Women have the freedom of choice to wear them in all Muslim Countries except few selective Arab countries who require you to wear hijab/burqa at all times while you are outside. I should also point out that a women's awareness of not showing off her beauty to other individuals is totally upon a woman's character. Just wearing a Burqa/Hijab does not indicate the fact you are a devoted Muslim. Its your faith that counts the most no matter what religion you follow.
