Haredi burqa sect
The Haredi burqa sect (Hebrew: נשות השָאלִים ''Nešót HaŠälím'', meaning "Shal(-wearing) Women"), referred in israeli slang as "The Taliban Women" (Heb. נשות הטליבאן ''Nešót HaŦaliba̋n'') is a religious group, primarily concentrated in Israel, in which ultra-Orthodox Jewish (Haredi) women claim that modesty calls for a burqa-style covering of the entire body, a ''shal'' (plural ''shalim'', English ''shawl''), including a veil covering the face. The garment, which looks more like a niqab than a burqa, is also called ''frumka'', a play of the word frum (Yiddish for devout) and burqa. The group, which was estimated to number around 100 in 2008 and several hundred , is concentrated in the town of Beit Shemesh.
The issue has proven controversial in Haredi circles, with vocal condemnation of the face covering veil by some Haredi organizations, including Edah HaChareidis.
==History==
The burqa as a mode of dress for Haredi women was encouraged by Bruria Keren, an Israeli religious leader who taught a strict (by Orthodox standards) interpretation of Jewish scripture for female adherents. Keren, who covers herself in several layers of clothing, claims that covering women was originally a Jewish tradition, and that she has seen a 400-year-old picture of Jewish women covered from head to toe.〔(【引用サイトリンク】A Jewish Movement to Shroud the Female Form )〕 There are also Sephardic women, who claim that their mothers in Morocco and Persia dressed like Arab women, covering the body entirely so that one cannot discern her figure. Keren declares to “follow these rules of modesty to save men from themselves. A man who sees a woman's body parts is sexually aroused, and this might cause him to commit sin. Even if he doesn't actually sin physically, his impure thoughts are sin in themselves”. Some of her followers also have their small girls covering themselves in the same way, and the women do not expose their face even at home.〔 The religious group, which was estimated to number around 100 in 2008 and may have grown to several hundred by 2011,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Controversy in Israel over burqa-wearing ultra-Orthodox Jews )〕 is concentrated in Beit Shemesh, but also has followers in Safed and Jerusalem. The majority of the women have secular backgrounds.〔Akiva Novick:('Taliban women': A cover story ) Ynet, 02.06.11.〕
In February 2008, Bruria Keren was arrested on charges of severely abusing her children.〔 Identified in court as "B.", she was convicted by the Jerusalem District Court in 2009 on three counts of abuse of a minor or helpless person and 25 counts of assault in aggravated circumstances, and sentenced to four years in prison. Her husband, identified in court as "M." was also convicted of 10 counts of assault and three counts of abuse of a minor or helpless person, and was sentenced to six months in jail. After being sentenced to prison, Keren was succeeded as leader of the group by Bracha Benizri, who adopted the shawl out of concern for "the deteriorating state of modesty in the ultra-Orthodox community," according to her husband Rabbi David Benizri, who reportedly claims that there are close to 30,000 women wearing the shawl in Israel.〔
