Girls in Saudi Arabia will no longer be able to wear the abaya in the examination hall. Saudi Arabia has banned the wearing of an abaya in the examination hall. The Saudi Education and Training Evaluation Commission (ETEC) said that female students should wear school uniforms in the examination hall. Abaya (a loose head-to-toe garment) is worn in North Africa, the Arabian Peninsula, and many Muslim countries. ETEC replied to the tweet of Dalia, a Saudi girl, tweeting, “It is forbidden to wear a cloak while taking the exam.
Dress code mandatory for girl students in Saudi Arabia
It is necessary to follow the dress code as per the rules to maintain decency in the examination venues.” Dalia asked her whether wearing a hijab is allowed during the examination. In 2018, Saudi Arabia also announced that the abaya would no longer be legally applicable. The step was taken by the kingdom's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. Women are being given more rights in Saudi, including the right for women to participate in public sporting events and drive cars.
The Crown Prince said in a 2018 interview, "The laws of Sharia (Islamic law) are very clear and stipulated that women wear decent, dignified clothes like men." The decision is left entirely to the women. What kind of decent and respectable dress does she want to wear?
