The attire oft proclaim the woman

The Irish Times yesterday carried a two-page report on the story of Dundalk woman Lisa Smith, who on Friday was sentenced to 15 months in jail for membership to Islamic State.

There are two large pictures of Lisa, dressed in traditional Muslim attire. Her head is covered and she stands out as someone who dresses differently from her contemporaries.

In the August edition of the St Martin Magazine there is a photograph of a young woman, who is sitting either in what appears to be either a swing or hammock. She is smiling. Her name is not given.

Her head, like Lisa’s is covered and she too stands out as someone who dresses differently from her companions.

For both women their attire is linked to their belief in God.
