Answer 1Wearing Burka (that is covering face) is not an Islamic requirement for women dressing and clothing. It is mainly due to historical local clothing traditions and practices that is not denied or required by Islam rules. Islam required for Muslim women clothing is to wear cloth that covers the whole body; including head, hair, and neck but not necessarily covering face and palm hands. That clothing should not be tight and figuring sexy parts and should not be transparent to show what is underneath.Answer 2Since the burqa is a garment that has more to do with local customs than Islam, there are a number of places, such as Afghanistan where burqa-wearing preceded the arrival of the Muslims by a few centuries. In other places, the burqa is only now gaining acceptance as a form of headcovering. However, among Muslim women, there was never a time-period when the burqa was the dominant headcovering among pious Muslim women.
The head scarf worn by Muslim women is called a Hijab. Burqa is the veil which some Muslim women wear covering the whole face. While Hijab is essential and compulsory for Muslim women, wearing of burqa is not, as it is a cultural and traditional garment worn by some Muslim women in remote areas of India, Pakistan and Saudi Arabia. More recently however it is getting popular in the West due to traditional and extremists Muslims and continues to be a controversial issue

The burqa can be seen as both protection and a form of imprisonment depending on one's perspective. Some individuals may feel that wearing a burqa provides a sense of security and privacy, while others may view it as restrictive and limiting personal freedom. Ultimately, it is important to respect an individual's choice in deciding whether to wear a burqa.
France was the first European nation to pass a law banning the wearing of the burqa in public spaces in 2011. This law prohibits individuals from covering their faces in public places and has been a topic of debate regarding religious freedom and secularism.
