One of the most important aspects of world civilization is the spread of the Islamic religion. To date, most of the world's population is Muslim. And one of the actual problems is the clothes women wear: the hijab. In some states, wearing the hijab has been controversial for many years. There are opinions that it is convenient and chic, there are other opinions that subject the hijab to sharp criticism. In France, Muslim girls were forbidden to wear headscarves for fear that their appearance would cast doubt on France's cohesive, universal ideal. According to many experts, this represents a formidable threat to the classical French identity, anchored in the universalism of French culture and civilization. In this connection, in this article, the author analyzes the Muslim perception of public self-government through the prism of multiculturalism in modern France.
