The current debates on abolishing hijabs in the European Union have seen many countries absolish headscarves. Nations including France, Belgium, and Austria are among the countries that have banned hijabs in public spaces. However, in Sweden, various bills have been presented in the parliament. The aimed to investigate wheather Hijab and other Islamic covering should be banned in Sweden. The current study adopted a systematic literature review that included 16 studies on the debates about banning the Hijab. The study's findings confirm that the call for a ban on Hijab in Sweden are unjustified and influenced by the oversimplification of the Islamic cultures. Besides, the assertions of the study indicate that the European nations unlawfully targeted Muslims, subjecting them to islamophobia and hate crimes.
