This paper focuses on the patterns of using veiling articles such as Scarf,
Turban, Telekung, Mini-Telekung, Selendang, Coats, Abaya and Niqab
among female academicians in three universities of Malaysia. The research
was designed with a quantitative approach to data collection and analysis.
The method of data assemblage was survey of all the available online profiles
of the female faculty academicians of three universities of Malaysia. The three
universities of Malaysia includes Malaysia University of Science and
Technology (MUST), University of Technology Malaysia (UTM) and Tun
Hussein Onn University of Malaysia (UTHM). The data collected was
documented with the help of a checklist developed by the researchers. The
data collected was statistically analysed to test the hypothesis. The increasing
trend of veiling among females is likely to results in the different patterns of
using veiling articles. The veil is also commonly observed among female
academicians whereas the research on the using of veil among female
academicians is not commonly observed. The importance of this research is
that the researcher is focusing on online profiles of female academicians
available at the official websites of universities of Malaysia to explore veiling
patterns among them. It is observed that 90% of female academicians are
Muslims as compared to 10% female academicians as Non-Muslims. It is
also observed in previous research that 89% of female academicians are using
veiling articles as compared to 11% of female academicians are not using any
veiling articles. It is argued that 2% of female academicians in three
universities are using veiling article Scarf as compared to the 10% female
academicians are using Turban. It is also observed that 38% of female faculty
academicians are using Telekung as compared to 48% of female academicians
