Should my wife wear a head scarf when visiting Muslim home?

I would. And, I would feel uncomfortable not wearing one. In their home you should respect their customs.

there are fairly some muslimahs who comprehend what's the right clothing yet do no longer adhere to the thought which in elementary terms exhibits their superficial devotion to that faith. it may be the household projects of the mutawwah to enforce the main appropriate regulation if there is any. I as quickly as seek advice from a fellow muslim brother to remind his sisters/different kin contributors to no longer placed on tight setting up clothing and wore a head scarf. It only provides a foul connotation to the completed muslim community. I reckon you talk your self a former muslim as all creatures are born muslims in elementary terms the guy choose for what they deviated to.

I think she should only wear a scarf if it's something that your wife is comfortable with. You were invited to dinner by someone who likely assumes you are not Muslim and, in my opinion, it would be wrong of them to expect you to behave any way other than naturally for you. It seems to me that if they had a problem with your beliefs and behavior they would not invite you into their home. After all, it is a home, not a mosque.

Some people will see that as disrespect (taunting their religion), while others will see it as respect. So it's chancy any way you go. However I would do like the military dose in this circumstance.

Over in the Muslim countries if a female soldier goes anywhere that is not a U.S. base she must cover her face and hair, just as the Muslim women do over there.

I don't think if would ever occur to a Muslim host to impose Islamic rules on a non-Muslim guest. Respect for culture goes both ways, and in situtations like this, the common culture --- meaning that of the larger society you and the host are both living in --- takes precedence. (And there is no culture in which the host can dictate just any terms he wants.)

No - I agree with wahoo100. Would you expect the Muslim women to remove their head coverings if invited to your home?

No your wife should not wear a scarf on her head as a sign of obedience to men in her friends' home simply because she is not a Muslim. If you and your wife were Muslims then she'd, obviously wear a hijab where ever she journeyed outside of her own family home.

You don't live in a Muslim country and, therefore, no-one is expected to conform to anyone else's religion. It'd be rude for anyone of any religion to invite friends over for a meal then to expect them to temporarily convert to their religion, such as: Jews - wigs/scarves, yamulka; Christians - scarves and crucifixes; Muslims hijabs/burkas and the Muslim hat for males.

True friends will not expect their friends to change, they accept them as themselves.

- Pepper.

yes, i have a muslim friend and when ever i go to her house i try to cover my legs and arms out of respect for their culture. I doesn't have to be a full burqa but maybe a scarf to cover her hair.

I think the best thing to do would be to have your wife ask that muslim family's lady just what is expected on your part. On my own personal part, I don't think she should, as non-muslims do not have to submit to Islamic law.

not at all no be sure of that and if you are going to visit any muslim countries you won't either need to do this except in mosques and in mekka in saudia arabia good luck with your dinner.. feel free to contact me anytime i'll be glad to
