I don't know the specific punishment for that on the day of judgement but I do know the reason why we have to wear that which I think you already know.\n\nShake hand.. I guess it's gonna be quite tough. I take it you're a corporate women or someone like that? Anyway, whether or not you live in west, aren't you suppose to wear hijab or something to cover the hair? So, I think most people would already know your religion. Um, if they're not.. I guess you can always smile back and nod your head a little as the response to their gesture. I don't think you would have to launch into speech or something, smile to them is polite enough. Just go through the real business already. :)\n\n^_^ I hope my answer helps though I don't have any experience living in west.

OMG, u r kidding?! Pentacostal women don't cut their hair, ever, speak in toungues at church, stand up and dance to the lord in the aisles in church, some are snake handlers...every Baptist church is different. Some have women deacons, some have gay music ministers. Some are quite liberal, some are conservative. But Baptists are nowhere near as literal to biblical translation as Pentacostals.

No. In many religions it was required for an older girl or woman to keep her hair at least partially covered. With a hat, scarf, mantilla, or even a paper towel in a pinch.\nA woman's hair was looked upon as a "crowning glory" for her, and it was a simple gesture of humility and modesty for her to wear something on her head.\nThe same wasn't thought about men's hair, so men removed their hats as a show of respect.\nIt's as simple as that. Being an older woman, the Queen probably is just sticking with the old traditions.

Most the time they don't "have" to cover their hair... it is often a choice.  It is a sign of the sacrafice they made for God.  I think it is because many men find hair very attractive on women, and so they want to keep it covered.  Christian women don't cover their hair because they haven't made that choice to commit their life to God the way nuns do.... to be unmarried.

"But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering."\n\n...just a sign of beauty.

The head covering is more than a tradition to many of the Muslim women - it is a matter of obeying the laws of their faith, and the basis of that is just being modest.  Smoking or blue jeans may not be "traditional" but that doesn't matter, because for those women, "Tradition" is not the point.  They are hanging on to laws of faith and modesty, which in many cultures, go beyond societal "tradition".  (Many conservative - that is, not necessarily traditional, but sticking close to the rules - Jews and Christians also wear head coverings of some sort for similar reasons.  There are more Muslim women in their conservative category though, so you don't see the others as much.  Do a search on "head covering" or "hair covering" to see what I mean.)\n\nHope this helps you understand to some extent.\n\n--- PS - I agree with you that they are inconsistent in their upholding of moral standards, just pointing out that it doesn't necessarily have to do with their upholding a traditional dress.

in most (not all) pentecostal churches,and a few others, the women do not cut their hair, wear makeup, long skirts and sleeves that cover the elbows. from what i understand this "tradition" (not the word i'm looking for) is an interpretation of a  scripture in the Bible about women not dressing as men and vice versa. also there is mention of a woman's hair being her crowning glory.

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم\nالسلام عليكم\n\nHello, actually there is no rule in the Quran or the Hadith about covering the head. And the rules about dressing modestly apply equally to men and women. Unfortunately the men of all cultures want to dominate women and in all cases have twisted whatever they could to enforce that domination. That included government (women in western countries could not own property until very recently and in the US they could not vote until the early 1900's) as well as economy (women in most of the world could not inherit property until very recently) and religion.\n\nBut the modest clothing is typical of the society. For instance the Burkha that westerners decry so much is actually a leftover from the Christians who inhabited the area. The Burkha was a perfect foil for men in both religions. The nuns in Catholicism wear the habit because they are honoring the way Mary, the mother of Jesus, dressed (peace on them both) and she was Jewish. This was the way women dressed to show modesty in those times.\n\nThe young man from "Persia" is totally wrong, if he were to actually look at Quran and Hadith, using his own intelligence he would know that. But the teachers of Islam in many countries teach what they were taught to teach and it is usually filled with cultural misconceptions.\n\nSalim

It depends how religious they are. Only married women cover their hair, sometimes with wigs sometimes with scalves or hats. Its because they feel that its an intimate thing to share with just your husband. There are some sects that shave their heads and cover their heads with wigs, but for a different reason.
