"Le sommeil du juste. Je crois que c'est les injustes qui dorment le mieux, parce qu'ils s'en foutent, alors que les justes ne peuvent pas fermer lâĆil et se font du mauvais sang pour tout."
Romain Gary
Some melodies arenât just meant to be heard, they can be experienced visually, too. Pachelbelâs âCanon in Dâ offers a captivating blend of music and visual beauty.
In Switzerland, a Muslim woman was fined 100 Swiss francs for wearing a burqa in a public place. The woman refused to pay the fine and appealed the case in court. This is âIslamophobia.â
But the court increased the fine to 1,000 Swiss francs, treating it as disrespect for Swiss law and a deliberate violation of the ban on covering the face.
Since Switzerland, after the referendum of March 7, 2021, implemented a nationwide ban on covering the face in public places, with a maximum fine of 1,000 Swiss francs for violations, effective January 1, 2025.
Therefore this verdict is now being seen as an example that religious identity and ideology cannot stand above the laws of the country, even if they portray themselves as victims and call the law discriminatory and Islamophobic.
