A number of Qatari women are aiming to raise awareness with a campaign called “Reflect Your Respect" that promotes modest clothing in the country. The campaign is aimed at encouraging foreign women to dress more conservatively. However, it is not spearheaded by religious hard-liners, but by moderate locals who are concerned that a steady influx of foreigners is threatening to uproot their customs and traditions, which are intertwined with 1,400 years of Islam on the Arabian Peninsula.
