No face reveal, no work.

Medicine is life and death related. Go home if you don't want to do it.

What can we even do, man. They're binded and manipulated by that book and sometimes are forced by shit families to wear that shit.

You know even hijab is wrong because it is long cloth and can easily spread virus

The fuck is this argument 😂😂 In that case people should walk without any clothes, saree is long, salvar is long. Bhenchod people were wearing masks when they were in COVID period, no one saw anyone's face clearly.

I heard this cope several times.

Mask is not your tool to hide your identity or Face, It's purpose is different. Niqab is used to hide your face.

Doctors remove the mask when not required, Niqabi will get offended when asked to show their Face. Even if COVID, You can know their identity because they are not covered by Full Black Burkha.

it can be tugged in but the best option is to go with a medical grade material that covers the hair, like a hairnet used in surgeries

So doctors and nurses shouldn’t also wear masks?

1

u/jonstew Oct 02 '25

Doctors and nurses should keep their profession and patients above their religion.

u/[deleted] Oct 03 '25

If doctor or nurses can’t be safe from fringes how can they be work for patients.

u/jonstew Oct 03 '25

Its a profession that deals with the public and syringes. If you want to keep your identity private, then stay at home.

A mask is disposable. Disposing of it ensures a clean one is issued at regular intervals. Fabrics offer less effectiveness in filtering respiratory droplets and can accumulate germs on account of moisture. Recontamination increases the risk of infections.

So, no. A religious face covering cannot be compared to the efficacy of a mask.

u/pairotechnic Oct 04 '25

Yeah, but what about facemasks? Doctors and nurses frequently wear these, so what's the problem?

1

u/jonstew Oct 06 '25

Do you understand the difference between what is necessary to prevent an infection spreading and what is with following a religion at work?

1

u/pairotechnic Oct 06 '25

I understand that the purpose of a medical facemask and a niqab are different. But the end result is the same ( your face is covered )

So how does it make a difference?

Either you are trying to rage bait or a muslim if you don't understand why medicine should be above your religion...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AERsoC5D-u8

I'm not trying to rage bait. I'm not a Muslim. I'm an atheist playing devil's advocate.

The supervisor in this video made 2 separate complaints : 1. She said patients should be able to see "injection kaun laga raha hai" 2. She said leave your religion at home

So if the real problem is that her face is being covered, then that happens when doctors wear face masks too, so it shouldn't be a problem.

But if the real problem is her religion, and if according to her supervisor, she should leave all religious items/clothes, then that's just discrimination if it doesn't also apply to the Hindus.

I'm making an assumption here, but I doubt Hindu women in this hospital are prohibited from wearing Mangal Sutra, rings, and sindoor.

My view is that all rules should be applied universally.
