^ U right, Sister AhLAAM.

If we don't using to wearing the abaya, when we are wearing the jean and then it will be showed our body shape. Which is haraam!

Nice thread mashallah.i once used to wear tight clothing before i came into practicing islam..nd it's true i wasn't grounded in my belief which is why i dint evn think it was rong...Alhamdullah Allah (S.W.T) guided me

MashaaAllaah sis, may Allaah guide u until ur soul departs from ur body, Ameen. Please make dua for me.

Ameen to that and Inshallah i will sis and plz do fr me too because we often do get carried awy before we realize wht we do rongg

on that note... anyone got any tips on how to wear modest clothing i live in australia and cant find much clothing that i can wear especially during summer when all the things on sale are short sleeved, and in winter all the shops sell three quarter length sleeved clothes and nowhere sells long skirts because i hate to say it but they arent very fashionable ... i try to wear baggy pants with long tops but it seems i am always looking the same due to the limited amount of options ... any hep out there???

any hep out there???[/quote]

i mean help HELP lol

hows that revealin ur body shape??? ... all jeans arent tight... there are mnay types of jeans.. and im on about the loose ones. nothing wrong with that as far as your wearing a long kameez or sumit with em.

hmm...
u dont HAVE to wear gloves. u dont even have to wear the niqab.
and hijab is not to cover the hair, hijab is to cover up, u dress modestly hijab is part of that.
AND
Im not like that...just sayin.

Nice reminder sis
Jazakallah khair

^ i don't wanna go in too much detail but it reveals the shape of ur legs.

Anyway, girls should avoid it.

Even if they are not tight, you can still make out the outline of the legs due to movement. Perhaps if one stood still like a statue it'd be less obvious. Even loose jeans worn without an abaya take something away from the modesty factor. It points to a love of exhibiting oneself to others.

Normal clothing, shalwar kameez - whatever kind, should be covered with a loose outergarment when going out. If one wears shalwaar kameez with a shawl on top, you can still see the waist and hips. God knows I've seen so many women's kameezes blow up with the wind, revealing the lower half of the body clearly. That's not pardah.

Allah has stated in the Quran: "O Prophet! Tell thy wives and thy daughters and the women of the believers to draw their cloaks close around them. that will be better, *so that they may be recognized and not annoyed. Allah is ever forgiving, merciful...." (from A.Yusef Ali's translation of the Qur'an; other versions translate the original Arabic as "veils" where Ali uses "cloaks").

*Recognised as women who guard their modesty


I also think displaying your jeans alters other's perception of you. It's like saying, "Look at me - I'm an ultra modern muslimah!" So it looks as if you want people to notice you for being trendy. It just doesn't go hand in hand with how a muslimah should identify herself as the epitome of simplicity and modesty.

^ SMAKED IT!!!!!!!

that is true.

khimar is the headscarf. Hijab refers to full body covering from head to toe. And yea jeans don't qualify, even loose fit jeans either as they do show the shape. Regardless of what others say, u may look ok while standing but try any other position or movement and see how apparent everything becomes to others.

thnks 4 da reminder ukhty

jazaki allah khair for this sister, this is so true subhan allah they are acting like Kaferen but in their own ways

if all fashion industries advertised islamic clothing and publicised it to be cool and swanky,we would see everyone in the street walking dressed modestly but because they are kuffar and the shaytan whispers to them ,they advertise revealing clothes and so some muslims especially sisters feel that if they do not buy these clothes they won't fit in society same goes for our brothers
