The veil
God's law in Islam, Judaism, and Christianity
✍ Written by: Dr. Sami Amiri
"When texts are integrated and history intersects, you discover that the hijab is not an Islamic innovation, but a heavenly obligation throughout the ages."
In this unique work, Dr. Sami Amiri reshapes the debate on the issue of the hijab, but he does not merely present it as a religious obligation in Islam; rather, he opens up to its deep roots in ancient Abrahamic traditions , analyzing its position in the three Abrahamic religions: Islam, Judaism, and Christianity.
The book does not present itself merely as a debate or a response to doubts, but rather as an original scientific research , characterized by textual accuracy and a wealth of citations from original sources , Arabic, Hebrew and Greek, to present a comprehensive picture of the hijab as part of the faith identity that transcends religions.
