Not all Muslims wear "hijab" in the Arab way.
My dad's Punjabi and he's a big fan of Bhutto.  He's involved with the PPP.
And that could be her, but really, who cares? Why does it matter what she wore when she was in college?
Didn't she go to Harvard anyway? That's not in Europe, last time I checked. I read an article about her and one of her profs at Harvard said he remembers her as being a shy girl in shalwar kameez.
What does Be-nazir mean anyway? The name?
I know Nazir means something like equal in Urdu, right? And many people, men and women, are called Nazir. So Be-nazir is like "without equal"? So then how does a name like just Nazir make sense? "Without equal" is better. Just plain old nazir is like... equal to whom?

Wear hijab in the Arab way? o.O. There is actually NO contradiction / doubt within the muslims regarding WHAT is a hijab covering. The hijab is mentioned 7 times in the Quran and their are two different things, Hijab and Khimar. Im sure a sister in here would better explain this than me >_> but ya....hijab means covering the hair and the bossom, but does not speak of the FAce, because there have been incidents during the Prophet (PBUH) time regarding this issue. But to say that Hijab is a Arab thing...
Who is quoting Wahabi Fanatics? Islam is a religion of Moderationg, its right in the middle. Im not trying to preach anything, but dont just say random crap. Got5
