Asia is the world's largest and most populous continent, with millions of different peoples following a wide variety of different religions. Asia was the birthplace of most of the world's mainstream religions including Buddhism, Christianity, Confucianism, Hinduism, Islam, Jainism, Judaism, Sikhism as well as many other beliefs. Religion determines how respectfully you treat your parents, what videogames you play, what music you listen to, what friends you have, who you vote for in elections, how you spend your time, how diligently you devote to school or your job. In South Asia everyday life of a person is highly affected by his religion as it controls over everything they do and say. Religion is also one of the root cause for creating social class and caste. Karl Marx has argued that problem in religion in ultimately problem in the society.

According to Sonny Sing in the Western countries, we see trend toward disallowing women to wear a face-covering veil. I have lot of Muslim female friends who were considering wearing the veil out of a personal choice to express her faith. For then it is not a part of their religion rather a part of culture and the society. The government has no right to restrict them from their choice. Similarly, in Saudi Arab the Government should not force women to wear veil if they choose not to do so.
