In these circumstances is it permissible for Muslims living in the West to shave off their beards and headcoverings in order to do taqiyyah?

Ah yes, the apparently little known (in the West) practice of the moslems, which lets them deceive their enemies, in order to further the goals of islam.

From what you posted, Donna, it doesn't appear that it applies only to the sect of islam that has supposedly been the main sect to practice taqiyyah. I believe it's the Shi'a who traditionally have used it over the centuries, along with other minority sects.

Moslem apologists, here on FR (not this thread), in the past 3 years, have been quick to state that only the one sect practices this tactic.

But I'm starting to believe it's been appropriated by most of islam at this point.

Anyone know differently?

And I certainly wish our media and our politicians would awaken to the existence of this practice.
