"Burkinis" for non-Muslims scrapped at British pool
An update on this story. "Swimming pool's dress code for non-Muslims is scrapped," by Neil Millard for the Evening Standard, August 17:
A London council has backtracked on rules forcing swimmers to cover upHere's a thought. A lot of new Islamic centers have appeared in the U.K. Shouldn't they take up the cause of providing Sharia-compliant recreational facilities?
at a public pool to avoid offending Muslims.
Croydon council has removed the guidelines from its website after being
criticised for barring non-Muslims if they refused to comply with the dress
code.
They were put in place for weekend swimming sessions for Muslims at
Thornton Heath Leisure Centre despite a general ban on wearing T-shirts in the
pool.
The council's online statement read: "During special Muslim sessions, male
costumes must cover the body from the navel to the knee and females must be
covered from the neck to the ankles and wrists."
Croydon Mosque and Islamic Centre praised the rules but said it would never
have asked for them.
Trustee Shuaib Yusaf said: "If it was designated as a Muslim session to
encourage Muslim women to come along, to that extent I could see a degree of
merit in it."
Malcolm Wicks, Labour MP for Croydon North, said asking non-Muslims to dress up
to swim was not fair: "I just hope some common sense can prevail here."
That'd be nice.
