What is the Muslim head wear of females called?
There are a wide variety of Islamic female clothes, which are outlined below. Arab women predominantly wear the Hijaab, but a large minority wear a hijaab-niqab combination, an abaya, or an abaya-niqab combination, especially in more conservative areas. These cover-ups include:Hijaab and Khimar: The least conservative form of woman's veil is the Hijaab also known as Khimar, Dilbant, or Jilbant. Hijaab comes from the Arabic word for curtain or cover and according to Islamic scholarship, the Hijaab is given the wider meaning of modesty and privacy. It is a piece of cloth that covers all or most of the woman's hair and circles down to the chin. If a woman wears only a Hijaab, her face would still be clearly visible, although her hair (and usually her ears) would be hidden from view.Abaya or Chador: The next piece of cloth that is of a similarly-conservative nature to the Hijaab is the Abaya also known as the Chador. The difference between a Hijaab and an Abaya is that an Abaya extends to the rest of the body. (In a sense an Abaya is a Hijaab-dress combination). This garment is commonly worn by Iranian women. Saudi women also wear an Abaya but compliment it with a Niqab.Niqab: This is a piece of cloth that covers the face, at least everything beneath the eyes. In many instances the Niqab continues all of the way up to the hair line. In those cases, a slit is cut for the woman's eyes, but her face remains concealed. Niqabs are worn almost exclusively with Hijaabs and Abayas. If a woman (in theory) were to only wear a niqab, her hair would and chin would exposed as the Niqab only covers the front of the face.Yashmak: This is a piece of cloth which combines the lower half of a Niqab (i.e. the part below the eyes) with a partial Hijaab so that most of the hair is covered. This headcovering used to be popular in Egypt, but is now being phased out for Hijaab and Hijaab-Niqab wearing.Burqa: This is a garment modeled on the Abaya, but instead of leaving the face exposed, the Burqa covers the entire face. The upper part of the face is replaced with a mesh so that the woman can see out, but otherwise the woman cannot be seen or see out from beneath the fabric.

What type of clothing is worn in Iraq?
In Iraq, there is, for the most part, a healthy mix between modern and traditional clothing. Although, since the 2003 overthrow of Saddam Hussein, more traditional clothing has become more common because their have been attacks on unveiled women. Men where things like dishdashas, which are long usually white garments, sometimes covered by a black abaya., a long overgarment, sometimes with embroidery. On their heads, men wear the ghatra(colored) or yishmaagh(white) with a egal (headband) to hold it on the head. Sometimes you can tell from which region of Iraq they are from by the color of the head veil. Women wear the long abaya, which covers everything below the neck except the feet and hands. They wear on their heads the hijab, which is a veil which covers the hair, or the niqaab, which only shows the eyes. Usually, Iraqi women do not wear the burqa, the full body veil, which has a light veil even over the eyes.
