چکیده:
Recently, demonstrating intolerance against hijab and challenging veiled women have turned out as one of the intercultural challenges emerging between European governments and Muslims inhabiting in the West. Mostly reflected in the Islamophobia project, this not-so-superficial challenge, not only blocked religious coexistence, but also undermined the slogan of tolerance in the West. Europe's attitude towards the issue of hijab in the Islamic world as well as Iran is simply represented and analyzed based on western anti-religion outlook or a particular sexual policy that is inherent in the modern West. However, recognizing and dealing with this issue especially by intellectual elites and cultural activists, demands a more precise formulation. This analytical study, based on primary sources and original researches, by looking at challenges related to the law, media and the concept of cultural citizenship in the “European cultural system” aims to reinvestigate the confrontation against hijab as a serious obstacle to this coexistence and cultural diversity. It also tries to focus on reforming the existing image as well as offering a different representation of the meaning of Muslim women’s hijab for European citizens and policymakers. Hence, through the formation of this likely understanding a path will be paved out for the reformation as well as the restoration of the intercultural interaction of Islam, European Muslim citizens, and cultural policy in Europe.

" It aims to bring attention to the correction of the image and a different representation of the meaning of Muslim women's hijab among European citizens and policymakers, and ultimately, through this potential understanding, to provide grounds for reforming and repairing the intercultural interaction between Islam, European Muslim citizens, and cultural policy in Europe.
Introduction One of the most common images in Western representations of the Muslim individual and Islamic culture is "hijab" and the "veiled woman," which has cast a shadow not only on the issue of Muslims in Europe but also on the reciprocal political and cultural relations between European societies and states and the Islamic world.
Although these common stereotypes may not specifically lead to violence against women, they are effective in creating a discourse and policy of exclusion and suppression of the Muslim veiled woman and increasing cultural tension between Islam and Europe.
Based on this, it is necessary to examine two important concepts: "European identity and pluralism" and "new citizenship and cultural rights," and to investigate their close connection to the issue of the perception of Muslims and the hijab in the West.
