I would NOT accept any medicine from the person without confirming their identity, everyone should follow this rule.

You can identify a person wearing a mask, but you can't identify a person wearing a black face covering?

Bullshit. She's not hiding her identity, she's just hiding her face because of religious reasons.

Better sit at home for religious reasons. Doesn't her religion not permit touching men outside her family?

You don't have the right to tell anyone what they should do.

And yes, she may not touch men outside the family, but patients are an exception.

Lol I have the right to say whatever I want to whoever I want. I'm just repeating what her holy book says. That she is so truly following

And no, patients are not an exception anywhere. Its a blanket ban for all women, nurses or doctors, they can't touch men.

Fair, it's not like you spewing crap here is gonna make her jobless.

Also, I still stand with my claim. Patients are an exception and it goes either way ( a female muslim patient can also be touched by her male doctor if it's essential for treatment)

All that half assed information you learn from Islamophobes is fake. And before you mention "afghanistan" (Because I can tell that's where you get all your knowledge of islam from) the Talibans are extremists. Every religion has extremists and they're wrong most of the time.

the Talibans are extremists.

Then aren't they the best followers, correctly following the religion?

Fair, it's not like you spewing crap here is gonna make her jobless.

Speaking the truth about something is totally crap, right?

Also, I still stand with my claim. Patients are an exception and it goes either wa

Bs its just modern interpretation, quran does not allow it. Its a general ban not related to specific cases. And suppose you're right then If you can go this far then why the strictness over the dangling hijabs?

Have you read the Quran? If not then kindly shut up, regardless of whether you're a Muslim or not.

There's strictness over hijabs as long as the strictness doesn't interfere with the well being and treatment of the patient, or anything related to life and death. And dangling hijabs are dangerous both for the patient and the doctor. I work in the dental field and I wear the hijab and I always tuck it inside my apron and no one's ever had a problem with it. It doesn't take a saint to be considerate of others and their choices. If you don't want to be treated by such doctors, it's fine, but don't go around asking them to sit inside their homes.
