Then why is hijab compulsory in Iran, not in India, Adarsh?

@Editor571 Yes, but I DID see an excerpt of film from 1979, in which the Ayatollah Khomeini came to power and women in the crowd started covering their heads. That said, TODAY'S Iranian women want to reverse that custom and UNCOVER their heads.

It is a sin to go bare-headed in Iran but the amount of make-up allowed is ridiculous.

Then they should change places. People always think that the grass is greener on the other side. There is more to Islam than just wearing the hijab. Women are not allowed to go out without written consent from men; if their husbands die, the children do not go to their wives, but to the husband's family; there is strict gender-segregation in public places and many men would kill other men even for talking to their wives, so those who wish to don the hijab are letting themselves in for a far harder life than they imagine.
