subhanallah, where does this false notion come from?
if i walk through a park at night where muggers lurk is it my sin if i am robbed or theirs?
it is clearly their sin for doing the robbery, not mine for walking there. you could argue i was foolish, but the sin is theirs not mine.
in the same way, a woman dressed inappropiately is perhaps taking a greater risk than otherwise but her sin is not dressing properly, men still have their own duty to keep their trousers on.
uring caution upon a woman to help protect herself by dressing modestly is not the same as blaming her if she is attacked if she is not dressed modestly.
