As September approaches, in the "advanced" stratum of our country in quotation marks, the issue of school uniforms will be raised to what extent our education level meets today's requirements.  

Posts based on personal views that our country is a secular state have started appearing on channels such as "Daydi*oq", which claim to be bloggers close to the government.

  As we mentioned earlier, a small number of radicals and bureaucrats with an atheistic ideology in our country are using the concept of "secularism" for their own malicious purposes and revealing their hatred towards the beliefs and values of a large number of Muslims.  

One of the manifestations of such hatred, or rather Islamophobic disease, is the issue of "school uniform". According to atheist radicals, the state is secular only if the education provided by the state is based on irreligion, if the state does not disparage any values and beliefs of its citizens.  

Basically, according to the constitutional system, the state is a servant of the people. And the people imposed the obligation on the state: "You will take the obligation to educate our children."  

The state must provide all its citizens with quality general secondary education at the expense of their taxes. The state provides education through professionals in this field - civil servants. The state's secularism is manifested not at the expense of people's freedom and belief, but in the fact that they do not forcibly teach religious knowledge.

Unfortunately, the fake liberals in our country, actually radical atheists,   are using the state's secular nature to implement their Islamophobic destructive ideas.

They reject our history, the contribution of our Muslim ancestors in the development of today's West, and promote the ideas of their "geniuses" such as Lenin, Marx, and Engels, based on irreligiousness.

So, if the country is secular, then there is no place for religious and national costumes in its schools? In fact, as radical atheists such as "Daydi *oq" claim, is it necessary for schoolchildren to be taught their religion, beliefs, customs, and even their modesty?

To answer this question, let's first explain the concept of religious dress.

According to our Islamic faith and culture, men and women are required to wear clothing covering certain parts of the body. This requirement is primarily aimed at preventing various conspiracies, treating men as men and women as members of the delicate sex, as well as protecting their honor and dignity.  

For example, the requirements for women's clothing reflect their freedom, dignity, protection, as well as their social status. More precisely, the dress increases the social status of women.  

Satr - i.e. covering certain parts of the body, is determined based on Islamic beliefs, culture and human nature. In addition, our religion, worldview and culture require that our clothes be clean, neat and beautiful. Purity is also one of the requirements of religious dress.  

According to the Islamophobic claims of radical atheists, if the state, being secular, demands that its people, of which it is actually its servant, be secular, that is, if it prohibits clothing chosen based on idiom, then it should demand that its citizens walk in half-naked, dirty and ragged clothes. After all, line, purity and beauty are characteristic of Islamic values.  

Secondly, the principle of secularism does not mean that the customs of citizens will be discriminated against. Is the state secular, please provide high-level education! We know very well that science   the "axiom" that one can learn only by renouncing religious and national values is not written anywhere. The Seljuk Banners, which today produce the most modern airplanes, also came from Muslims   This is the real worldliness.

Since education is also the state's obligation to citizens, it should be implemented in a high-quality way without harming the rights of citizens.

Today, if the state is secular, it is said that there is no way for national and religious traditions in schools, it is a manifestation of French radical atheistic ideology. As we mentioned earlier, the ideas of the French radical revolutionary secularists are spread among our country's radical atheist bloggers and some officials. We have seen how such a worldview leads to evils in the example of the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympic Games.

Among Uzbek atheist and Islamophobic politicians, when they say "secularism", they only think of radical secularization in the French way, which is a threat to our people and nation. After all, secularism does not consist only of French radical atheism.

Let's take a look at the world's most advanced secular countries and their attitudes towards school uniforms:

Turkey is a secular country, but since 2013, girls have been allowed to wear headscarves in schools.

Indonesia is a secular country with the largest Muslim population. Headscarves are allowed in schools.

Canada is a developed secular country. The government has allowed national, religious and cultural dress to be worn in schools.

The Republic of South Africa is a secular developed country. Allowed national and religious dress in schools.

Australia is a developed secular country. Headscarves are allowed in schools.

The situation in the United States, the most developed secular country, does not please our radical atheists. Because the Constitution of the high-tech state, which is considered the highest peak of modernity, guarantees religious freedom, which includes the right to express religious beliefs through clothing. Such freedom also applies to public schools, which allow students to wear hijab, caps, and headscarves.

Under American law, a secular state cannot pass laws restricting religious practices. Based on this, it cannot prohibit the wearing of clothes based on national and religious values in schools. The US Supreme Court has upheld the right of students to wear religious clothing in several cases. While US schools have the right to impose uniform uniforms, such requirements should not come at the cost of banning national or religious beliefs. If such prohibitions are to be introduced, it must first be scientifically proven that they serve to maintain security and order.  

Thus, the most secular state in the United States is one of the most permissive of religious clothing in public schools.

So, in addition to radical secularism like in France, religious dresses are allowed in public schools in many other developed secular countries, why should we, black-eyed Uzbeks, be scolded by radical atheists and some school principals for wearing headscarves in our schools in an Uzbek, national, cultural and beautiful way?

After all, didn't the state get a guarantee not to interfere in our national, cultural and religious affairs, not to discriminate and not to humiliate us based on our beliefs?  

Why should we not be able to wear our national costumes in our country because of the illusions of a few radical atheists about secularism? Every year when September approaches, we have to live under the fear that no one will beat, curse, or show their hands on our mastura girls?!

Should we suffer the tyrannical appeals of illiterate atheists who are actually just as educated, funded by the enemies of religion?  

Do we live in our own country or in a country ruled by atheists who promote foreign ideas?!
