Court revokes niqab ban
An Egyptian administrative court has allowed a female student wearing the niqab (full-face veil) to stay in the dormitory of Ain Shams University,
 
cancelling a decision by the head of the institution to prohibit all munaqabat (women wearing the niqab) from entering the building.
