I have never seen a man wearing a hijab. Let's not try and make claims that really aren't true in practice. You know as well as anyone that men do not wear it, whether they're supposed to or not. In anycase, why should your women need protecting? Shouldn't Islam teach respect for women? Why is it necessary for them to wear protective clothing just to protect them from lustful men who cannot master self control?
What baffles me most is the Muslim women who actually feel happy to wear the hijab. It's oppressive. |
Hijab is more then Just wearing some kind of cloths, see cloths are just part from Hijab!
It is well know that what you wear SHOWS your personality, Muslims (MEN/WOMEN) should were cloths that when someone see them say they are, MUSLIMS and DECENT and RESPECTABLE people, thats why as well as women have to wear some cloths and cover herself, ISLAM says what men should wear and cover themselves also, like for example you cannot pray wearing SHORTS!
If you go to any western (supposed free) country and you walk in streets with your girl friend in very hot day, then you both take of your cloths and walk only with shorts and your chests are naked (man equal to woman) then believe be the police will come to you both and they will arrest HER and not you!
Simply this because MEN are Different then WOMEN thats why their cloths are different and Hijab are different!
So as you see Men and women in ISLAM are equal concerning HIJAB which again means more then only cloths!
And really I dont understand what is the problem if women want to wear Hijab, so that when people see her say this is MUSLIM and DECENT women, not only that she will be treated differently, for example you will not be able to call her names like in (supposed free) countries use words like CHICKS for example, you will not tell her lets go to my home to have some beer etc...!
See there is difference between two women or girls who wake up in the morning:
One chose her closes so that she look decent and respectable and men dont look at her outside beauty!
And Another who wear cloths so that she attract as mush as she can eyes of men etc.... !
feel the difference!?
May Allah (swt) guide us all!
