Impatho-mbi echazwe ngomnye umhambi ongumSilamsi enxibe i-hijab

Iqela lesizwe lamaSilamsi elidumileyo lamalungelo oluntu kunye neqela elixhasayo namhlanje lithumele ileta kuMongameli u-Obama efuna inyathelo malunga neenkxalabo zokuba abahambi abangamaSilamsi abanxibe izikhafu zentloko yenkolo, okanye i-hijab, ngoku bakhethwa ngokuzenzekelayo kumanyathelo okhuseleko olongezelelweyo kwaye banokujongana nokuphathwa kakubi kwizikhululo zeenqwelomoya.

I-Washington-based Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) yathumela loo leta kulandela enye ingxelo yomhambi ongumSilamsi ekutyholwa ukuba uphathwe kabuhlungu ngexesha lokuncinwa kweeyure ezine ngamagosa ase-US kumda waseCanada.

Owasetyhini ongumSilamsi, ophethe ipaspoti yaseCanada, uthi ubanjelwe imibuzo ngoMvulo kwisikhululo seenqwelomoya iHalifax Stanfield International, ngexesha ebetyholwa ngalo kwaye waziva ngathi "ngumnqolobi." Wayezama ukukhwela inqwelomoya eya eOhio ukuya kutyelela umyeni wakhe, kodwa ekugqibeleni walelwa ukungena eUnited States. Xa umhambi ongumSilamsi wabuza ukuba wakhethwa kuba inguye yedwa ibhinqa elithwele isikhafu entloko, kuthiwa akazange afumane mpendulo.

Kwileta yakhe eya kumongameli, uMlawuli weSizwe we-CAIR u-Nihad Awad uthe: “Uluntu lwamaSilamsi aseMelika luyayibulela imizamo yolawulo lwakho lokugcina ilizwe likhuselekile kwaye likhuselekile. AmaSilamsi aseMerika anikela inkxaso yawo epheleleyo kuloo nzame. Sikholelwa, nangona kunjalo, ukuba ukhuseleko lwesikhululo seenqwelomoya alonyuswa ngokukhetha abahambi ngokobuhlanga, uhlanga, okanye inkolo yabo. Ngapha koko, sikholelwa ukuba ukwenza iprofayile akusebenzi kwaye akunamveliso. Ukuchazwa kwenkcazelo ngobuhlanga nangonqulo kunceda ekubekeni ibala aze abeke ibala ewonke amaqela abakhenkethi, ngoxa kunikela imvakalelo yobuxoki yokhuseleko kuluntu oluhambahambayo.

"Ezinye iindlela ezisebenzayo zokuchaza iprofayili engasebenziyo zibandakanya ulungelelwaniso olungcono phakathi konyanzeliso lomthetho kunye neearhente zokhuseleko, ngakumbi izinja ezifunxa ibhombu kunye nezixhobo zokubona ibhombu kwizikhululo zeenqwelomoya, intlawulo engcono kunye noqeqesho lwabasebenzi be-TSA, kwaye-eyona nto isebenzayo - ukuhlolwa kwabakhweli okusekwe kuhlalutyo. izinto ezikrokrisayo, kungekhona kwibala lolusu okanye kwimpahla yonqulo.”

Ileta ka-Awad ikwacaphula intetho kamongameli eyayisiya kumaSilamsi kunyaka ophelileyo eCairo, apho wathi: “Inkululeko eMelika ayinakwahlulwa kwinkululeko yonqulo lukabani… Yiloo nto urhulumente waseUnited States eye waya ezinkundleni ukuze akhusele. ilungelo labasetyhini kunye namantombazana lokunxiba i-hijab kunye nokohlwaya abo baya kuyikhanyela."

Izolo, i-CAIR ibize uLawulo loKhuseleko lwezoThutho (TSA) ukuba lucacise ukuba iikhafu zentloko yamaSilamsi ngoku ziya kubangela ngokuzenzekelayo amanyathelo okhuseleko ongezelelweyo kubahambi abangamaSilamsi.

I-CAIR yenze eso sicelo emva kokuba umfazi ongumSilamsi ethathe inqwelomoya ngoLwesibini esuka kwisikhululo seenqwelomoya saseWashington Dulles exele ukuba abasebenzi be-TSA baqale bacela ukuba akhulule i-hijab yakhe, emva koko bamfake kukhangelo “oluhlazo” loluntu olugcweleyo xa esala. .

UNadia Hassan, oneminyaka engama-40, waseMaryland uthe wambambazelwa phambi kwentombi yakhe, 5, kunye nabasebenzi abaliqela beTSA. “Kwakuthob’ isidima kakhulu. Bekungonwabanga kakhulu, ”uHassan uxelele iDetroit News ngodliwanondlebe oluvela eCalifornia. “Khange ndithethe nto. Ndandingafuni ukwenza ingxaki. … NdingumMelika. Andingomphambukeli. Ilizwe lam lindiphethe ngolu hlobo?”

Xa umhambi, umhlali waseMaryland, ebuza abasebenzi be-TSA ngendlela aphethwe ngayo, waxelelwa ukuba umgaqo-nkqubo omtsha waqala ukusebenza ngaloo ntsasa uyalela ukuba "nabani na onxibe isikhafu entloko kufuneka ahambe ngolu hlobo lokukhangela."

NgoMvulo, i-CAIR ithe izikhokelo ezitsha ze-TSA, apho nabani na ohamba evela okanye edlula kumazwe ali-13 uninzi lwamaSilamsi kuya kufuneka ukuba adlule kubuchule bokuhlola obuphuculweyo ngaphambi kokukhwela inqwelomoya, inani leprofayile yenkolo neyobuhlanga.
