When the annual Islam Awareness Week reduces our religion to the hijab and the beard without fail, it is not surprising that when a woman removes her hijab she feels the full weight of the condemnation of the community, whilst a man associated with hypocrisy and sexual impropriety is defended to the last. When those who promulgate religion refuse to talk about morality, piety and godliness, it is no surprise that the masses have nothing to contribute but vapid platitudes. This is what happens when those promoting awareness are those most in need of awareness.
