Questioning the Veil: Open Letters to Muslim Women is a 2009 book by Marnia Lazreg, published by Princeton University Press. In the book Lazreg asks critical questions regarding commonly accepted reasons why women wear Islamic hijab or the veil (khimar), and in each chapter she asks this question to readers in the form of letters. Daniel Varisco of Hofstra University described the book as "a polemic, in this case against the veil, from a secular standpoint." The book is addressed to women who observe or are considering observing hijab by wearing the khimar.
