well I have seen Queen Silvia wear a scarf in a mosque before. It was when Queen Rania and Abdullah were on a state visit of Sweden and Rania and Silvia visited a Swedish mosque.
In the pictures with Prince Muhtadee trailing in the background, is he wearing the same outfit (military style) he wore during his wedding banquet/ bersanding ceremony? Looks the same to me really

Not if you think that part of the culture is degrading or something similar.
covering one's head when going into a place of worship isn't degrading. Muslims aren't the only ones who do it or require it. Orthodox Christians, for example, wear veils in a church. So do Sikhs and many Hindus. Queen Noor covers her head everytime she's in a church as a sign of respect. I doubt Queen Silvia thought that the veil is degrading just because you do. She's done it before. She had a scarf in her hand or around her neck most of the time.

Yes. I mean overall, it looked like a very "fun" trip. Well, interesting in a good way. The dinners and the boat trip and things like that. The trip to the mosque. But there was just the remarks bruhaha that put a damper on things.
