Following the incident, the Michigan Chapter of Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR-MI) urged police to conduct a thorough investigation.
In a statement, CAIR-MI Executive Director, Dawud Walid said, “CAIR-Michigan is saddened to hear about the attack of 7 year old Saida while playing in a park near her home. Regardless of the motive, this attack was a senseless act of violence that will impact the lives of Saida, her family, and all of the other children who were in the park that day.”
CAIR: Austria approves school headscarf ban for girls under 14 – Jurist
The new law has been met with outrage by Austria’s Muslim community, and Amnesty International said in a statement that passing the law in its current form “will not empower girls, on the contrary, it will add to the current racist climate towards Muslims.” Furthermore, the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) has also criticized the ban, stating:
“Austria’s decision to ban the hijab for young Muslim girls is an unacceptable intrusion into personal religious practice and a clear violation of fundamental human rights. Rather than promoting equality or protecting children, this ban singles out one religious community for state-sanctioned discrimination. Measures like this only serve to marginalize Muslims, deepen social divisions, embolden extremists, and send a harmful message to Muslim children that their faith is unwelcome in public life.”
