This article discusses the practice of "veiling" for Muslim women in Java, Indonesia. I thought this was an interesting account of how a world religion adapts or does not depending on where it is. It discusses a holiday that is Islamic however the celebration of it is unique to Java. There are ways in which they do not mix however and that is evident in the trouble that many women who chose to veil face.
