azade
im saying that if a secular state allows hidjab soon it will stop being secular. thus stoning will be allowed easily.

I think relating stoning directly with Islam is a bit absurd here because in Quran there's not a verse about stoning as far as I know. On the contrary as it's been shown here in the old testament it exists. Could you show the related verse in Quran?

The key question hasnt been answered by anyone with facts and quoted verses from teh Quran. I am currently reading it, but have only been able to read a few pages because its difficult language.

Anyway. Is a headscarf obliged in the islam? Because if its not as many say, the title of this thread is far from true (which I think it is anyway).

The vast majority of scholars say the hijab is mandatory, but there some who don't (maybe sufis but I don't know actually). Since the very beginning of islam Qur'an-i kerim, hadiths and the schools of fiqh has interpreted it so that women should wear it.

Sorry this is quite long...
"Ali ibn Abi Talib said:"Fatimah and I came to the Prophet (PBUH) for a visit and we found him weeping bitterly. I said to him:'May my father and mother be ransomed for you, O Messenger of Allah! What makes you weep?' He replied,' O Ali, during my night journey to the Heavens, I saw of my Ummah being punished in various ways, and I am weeping at the severity of their punishment. I saw a woman hanging by her hair and her brain boiling; another woman was hanging by her tongue and hot liquid was being poured down her throat; another woman's feet clung to her breasts and her hands to her forehead, and snakes and scorpions were stinging her; another one was hanging by her breasts; another woman, whose head was that of a pig and whose body was that of a donkey, was being punished in a thousand different ways; and another woman was in the form of a dog, and fire was going into her mouth and coming out of her anus, and the angels were hitting her head with hammers of fire.' Fatimah stood up and said:'O my dear father, what were the deeds of these women for which they suffer such punishment?' He replied:'O my dear daughter, as for the one who was hanging by her hair, she did not cover her hair in front of men; the one who was hanging by her tongue used to annoy her husband; the one hanging by her breast used to defile her husband's bed (i.e. commit adultery); the one whose feet were tied to her breasts and her hands to her forehead, and snakes and scorpions were stinging her, did not wash herself (make ghusl) after sexual intercourse or finishing menstruation, and she made fun of prayer and the one with the pig's head and a donkey's body used to carry around slanderous tales; and the one in the form of a dog, with fire going into her mouth and coming out of her anus, used to be envious and to recount her favors to others.""
