Under 15 and Wearing a Muslim Headscarf? France Wants to Stop That — Here’s Why

French President Emmanuel Macron’s political party, Renaissance, has proposed a new law to ban girls under 15 from wearing the Muslim headscarf in public. This controversial move is part of a wider government effort to fight what officials call “political Islamism” in France.

At the heart of this debate is the Muslim headscarf, seen by some as a symbol that challenges France’s values of gender equality and secularism. Gabriel Attal, Renaissance’s leader and former prime minister, says forcing girls under 18 to wear it should become a crime.

The goal, he claims, is to protect children and defend the country’s republican principles.

So, what does this mean for ordinary people? Imagine a teenager who wears a headscarf as part of her faith or family tradition. Suddenly, the law could force her to remove it, making her feel targeted and different. Critics say this feels less like protecting values and more like singling out Muslim communities.

France’s history with secularism, or laïcité, runs deep. Since 2004, students in public schools cannot wear visible religious symbols, including crosses, kippahs, and turbans. The government argues this keeps religion and state separate.

But critics say these rules hit Muslim girls the hardest, especially since recent bans on the abaya and debates over sportswear rules.

Here’s the twist: the ban on the Muslim headscarf for young girls ties into fears about the Muslim Brotherhood, an Islamist group that French officials say is trying to slowly change society.

A secretive government report claims the Brotherhood uses local groups like schools and sports clubs to push its ideas. But many experts and Muslim leaders say this is unfair. They warn the government risks mixing Islam as a religion with political extremism, which can fuel Islamophobia.

The reaction is loud and mixed. Left-wing politicians accuse Macron’s party of chasing far-right voters by attacking Muslims. On the far right, leaders like Marine Le Pen want even tougher laws. Meanwhile, Muslim groups warn the government not to label all Muslims as suspicious or extremists.

So, is banning the Muslim headscarf for girls under 15 the answer? Or is it another step toward dividing France’s already fragile social fabric?

The government plans to finalize its new laws by June. Whatever happens, this debate will shape how France balances its secular ideals with the reality of its diverse population.
