This qualitative study aimed to capture the views and reasons for veiling by young Muslim women in a social context where ethnic/religious identity is not contested or threatened. In-depth, open-ended interviews were conducted with young Muslim women who had started wearing the veil for the past four to five years. There was consensus amongst the respondents that wearing the veil was an obligation in Islam and it only reflects their commitment to their religion. However, the meaning of the veil was not limited to a piece of clothing. Modesty was considered to be an important dimension of the veil and was self-prescriptive, a reminder to conduct their life according to the Muslim belief system. Wearing the hijab consolidated their awareness of themselves as Muslims and in their practice. The findings are discussed within the multicultural context of Mauritius.

蒙蔽的感知和原因

这项定性研究的目的是,在不争吵或威胁种族/宗教身份的社会背景下,捕捉年轻的穆斯林妇女蒙上面纱的观点和理由。对过去四到五年开始戴面纱的年轻穆斯林妇女进行了不限成员名额的深入采访。受访者一致认为,戴面纱是伊斯兰的义务,这仅反映了他们对宗教的承诺。然而,面纱的含义不限于一件衣服。谦虚被认为是面纱的一个重要方面,并且具有自我描述性,提醒人们根据穆斯林信仰体系进行生活。戴着头巾可以增强他们对自己作为穆斯林的认识以及他们在实践中的意识。
