"As Al Ahram Weekly has reported, the Sawy Center recently hosted a large photojournalism competition.
The winning photo in the news category was this picture of Sheikh Tantawi lifting a girl's niqab. Whatever you think of the niqab (personally I believe an argument for its harmful effect and its restriction can be persuasively made) there is a startling disrespect in the gesture."
