You just skipped over everything I typed. She didn't wear it for the first two days of employment. In Islam there is no gray area when in the secular world. If one wears one for religious purpose, then it is worn all the time.
Per her own statement: She said she did not wear the headscarf during the job interview as she did not wear it on a regular basis and simply decided to put it on after the weekend at her third day at work.
Thus making it a fashion item.
In this case, it seems it would be very important to establish what fashion items were allowed on other employees in the past. Were other female employees allowed to wear a headband? a neck scarf? another hair accessory that covered part of all of the hair?
It was Allah's will she be fired. She should realize this, as a good little superstitious sheep. She should accept and embrace it. Trust her fairy-tale god to provide. Bad muslim. BAD!
There are lots of women who only wear the hijab part-time that have never used it as a political or financial tool.
But wouldn't it stand to reason that if the hijab could be worn part-time or at ones own discretion it is not vital to religious doctrine and therefore does not merit any religious accommodation in the workplace?
It would seem this particular issue like many in various religions is something they pick and choose to suit their own agenda.
Swing back into the US to score some quick cash to fund his daddies political aspirations! Only in the USA. Imagine a Christian or a Jew doing this in Saudi

Would it be acceptable for a motorcycle club member to come to work wearing Banditos colors in a professional environment? Especially if he didn't the display them at the interview? A hijab is no different. It shows a special loyalty to a particular group or subset of Americans.

As has been pointed out to me this situation falls under religion and is therefore a protected class so yes apparently it is different.
How is your sanity, mental healthy and emotional health effected by her wearing a headscarf? Are you afraid shell talk about God to you? Afraid shes hiding a cheese sandwich in it?

I'm not sure there is a "vital to the practice of the religion" clause in the legislation anywhere.
The fact is that the hijab is a recognized symbol of a practicing Muslim woman.
This dentist is almost certainly in trouble, legally.

Motorcycle clubs are not recognized religions in this country. Comparing apples to footballs....
