A Muslim woman said she was fired as she refused to remove her hijab at work.

On the third day at her new job at the Fair Oaks Dental Care clinic in Viriginia Najaf Khan decided to go into work wearing her head scarf.

She claimed her boss immediately took her aside and told her to remove it to keep a “neutral environment” and said that the dress item would offend patients.

She was allegedly told she would have to remove her hijab otherwise she would lose her job, and she refused.

Ms Khan said she was excited to begin work at the Fairfax-based clinic and that she wanted to become a dentist.

“I was astonished because he had been saying I was doing so well,” she told Fox News.

“I received an email the Friday morning saying how much positive enthusiasm I was bringing to the dental office.”

  1. Good, the sooner it catches on the better, the Bible and Koran are false fronts for Judaism scriptures. When read and proper attention paid to detail, the truth about the bible, Koran, AND the jews will be known. People are in fact living in ignorance of the bible and Koran, due to being force fed relentlessly throughout life from birth.

  2. WOMEN DO NOT NEED TO FEEL SINFUL OR GUILTY IF YOUR EMPLOYER ASK YOU NOT TO WEAR HIJAB IN HIS OFFICE.

    Burqa and Jilbab have limited women to participate the international Olympics,whereas Burqa or Jilbab is the ancient Arab tradition who live in desert in order to protect her head, hand and feet from the sand storm that can harm women badly. The second reason is to protect women from kidnapping, Women can be slave and be sold too.

    That is a logical reason why Allah and Prophet Muhammad (saw) suggested. Covering hair, hand and feet are not obligation in Islam Quran 24:31, Quran 33:59, but those verses are suggestion for women who live in desert.

    Islam is logical religion, progress and modern Religion. The wives and Daughters of King Abdullah of Jordan and President Assad of Syria (shia) do not wear the ancient Aeab tradition dress anymore.They are modern Muslim who live in 21st Century.
