A woman in Ilorin told a court to dissolve her two year
marriage because she refused to stay in purdah , the
News Agency of Nigeria reports .
The purdah practice requires married Muslim women to
stay in separate rooms, behind a curtain or dress in
all - enveloping clothes, usually black in colour , in
other to say out of the sight of men or strangers. Come
rain or burning sun , they cannot step out in public
without the purdah.
But Azanat Bashiru told the court that Mumin Bashiru ,
her husband of two years and father of their two
children , did not tell her before they got married in
2014 that she would be put in purdah .
“ This is not in our agreement . I cannot be covering my
body with black cloth, including my eyes , all of the
time , ’’ she said .
Mumin did not raise any objection. “ If she doesn’t
agree to be in purdah , she is free to go , ’’ he said .
But he demanded custody of their two children .
