SC in its last hearing said that “We are not interpreters of the Quran. We cannot do it and that is the argument raised also that the courts are not equipped to interpret religious scriptures”
This statement is being made because this Hijab Ban case is related to religious practices and SC cannot take decision on what Quran says about wearing Hijab.
Several peoples are saying that this matter should be referred to a constitutional bench otherwise it would take a long time to resolve this matter.
Several pleas are given that wearing hijab was not a part of the essential religious practice that can be protected under Article 25 of the Constitution.
As we know that Article 25 of the Constitution deals with freedom of conscience and free profession, practice and propagation of religion.
Some are saying that this religious practice should be protected under this article while some are showing disagreement with this.
