Problems Muslims In Britian face

separate children of different sexes after they hit their teenage years so that they ‘do not get the wrong ideas’. Several problems occur during that. The most important being that a woman may only expose her hands and face to a man not of her family. So when they have P.E or school they must wear trousers to cover their legs.  They have to go to same sex schools, which can cause a problem as most same sex schools are private so cost a lot.  They cannot go swimming in mixed schools either.  Muslim teenagers are not aloud out alone with boys. When they have relatives over the women and men will go their separate ways, and into separate rooms. Muslims may not eat food that is considered ‘Haram’. Which are animals that eat other animals. The food they eat must be halal, which means it has been killed in a special way (by slitting the animal’s throat). Sometimes they cannot eat cakes, pastry and cheese, because the animals it came from wasn’t killed properly.  Food cooked in fat that comes from a haram animal may not be eaten. When Muslims die they may not be buried in a coffin. This is illegal in Britain, as when you are buried, if you are not in a coffin all the maggots will slowly eat away at the flesh. Muslims cannot be cremated either and they must be buried with their head facing Mecca. Muslims must be buried on the day of the death, and be washed by members of the family. This is impractical in Britain. Sometimes it can take up to a week to be buried. Women and men may not be seen by a member of staff (doctor) who is off the opposite sex. So when they go into hospital this can cause problems, for example only male staff may be free and if you’re a woman you might have to wait hours to see a female one. When a baby is born the words of ‘command to worship’ are to be the first thing he hears. However if the baby is ill it may need to be rushed of right away and so cannot hear the words.  Male babies are circumcised after birth, which can cause problems to have the operation at such a young age.  The hijab that Muslim women wear which covers their whole body makes people prejudiced against them because of the London and Twin tower bombings by Muslim extremists.Muslims may not be in pubs or near anyways that sells alcohol. In fact in Muslim countries alcohol is forbidden, it is a prisionable offence to bring it into the country. Muslims may not have pictures which have people in them in their house.Smoking is frowned upon because it harms your health and it is discouraged to harm anything God created. At lunchtime Muslims must pray and at lunch time on a Friday Muslim men MUST go to the mosque to pray to Allah. This causes problems if they work for someone who is not Muslim because they may not understand.Muslims may only marry people whose family were Muslim. Which means that the father was a Muslim. Muslims is eastern countries are aloud more than one wife, however in Britain this is illegal. Sexual relationships outside marriage are considered wrong. Becki Atkinson - I’m sorry Mrs Smee but the school files were inaccessible over the weekend, we only found out on Friday. So I was unable to get onto my account to access the leaflet, so I just wrote up the information. Sorry again .
