Abstract
Official ideology suppressed the headscarved women as it saw them as a symbol of political Islam. But it is clear that headscarf is a different face of new social classes emerging with the changing economic policies. So, it is a clear demonstration of the fight between different social classes as evidenced by legal and practical ebbs and flaws about the ban. This fluctuation in the practical and legal situation sometimes crippled all the system, causing conflict between the different organs of the state. It is said that the ban neither related to secularism nor the ‘sacredness’ of public sphere but to the tension between military and civil bureaucracy at the one side and society at a whole at the other.
