Mahool it’s not my personal experience because I don’t allow people to bully me religiously but there is not one masjid I’ve come across or a religious extracurricular group except the one I run, that allows non hijabis or non bearded men to be in any positions. In fact, many groups don’t allow non hijabis to even show up to group meetings and seminars etc.

And muzna, please stop it with your snide bullying.

I’m not hijabi and I serve on several committees for my masjid. We’ve had 2 non hijabi women on the Board as well. Not one single one of the men on our BoD has a beard. My husband is also the lead of one the committees and he most definitely isn’t bearded lol. Our head of the finance committee is a non practicing women born Hindu, married to a Muslim man. And this is in a suburb of the same place you used to live. I’m sorry you’re experiences have been different and it’s incredibly frustrating, I agree, but it’s not fair to make sweeping generalizations like that.
