Men are reasonably beautiful, compared to women. If so why aren't men required to cover themselves up? Would not a half naked man, produce as much as lust in the heart of women?

This is one, argument that Muslim's face, hope one of u can explain this for us

Hey

I don't think women get aroused when they see a half naked man, the same way as men do when they see a half naked woman.

heres my answeR:




see ^ doesnt he look so modest
mashaAllaah indeed the BEARD can be considered the mans veil as it does help to veil some beauty... yet some think it beautifies further *confused*

i guess it just repels away the nasty ones.




and yeah what the sister said, they seem to have less lust i think, wallahu a'lam

asalam alaikum wr wb,

The man's hijab is the lowering of his gaze and the covering of his awrah (naval to knees). His clothing should be loose so as not to show the outline of the parts required covering.

According to an international study, men are attracted to women for their looks and women go for security and wealth. Another study (Oakland University) found that 83% of men rated looks as important compared to 54% of women.

Also...

It's a fact that men love looking at women and even when with a woman they still suffer from the 'wandering eye' syndrome. Also a woman can look at a man and just appreciate his looks and nothing more, but for men in general it goes beyond that and even leads to approaching women ands harrassing them. So it makes sense that a woman should cover up to protect herself from unwanted attention.


However both men and women can feel desire, albeit on different levels when looking at the opposite sex. This is why Islam has told both men and women to lower the gaze. So a woman shouldn't be looking at a man even if he is half dressed.

On a practical level, it's a man's duty to provide for his family and they have to do all sorts of work i.e. building, farming etc... Allah has made Islam easy for us. Imagine how difficult it would be for a man to be doing those jobs fully dressed?



wa alaikum asalam wr wb.

^ Nicely explained mashaaAllaah

I think it enhances it. Most men without a beard look kinda feminine to me.




wa alaikum asalam wr wb.

Exactly my thoughts.

Are you implying that that "hijab" symbolizes a ‘cover’ or a ‘protection’ from the ‘uncontrollable libido’ of men.

If that is the case it would symbolize women’s liability to exploitation in the public domain: which can sadly be used as an excuse and a means to oppress them economically, socially, and individually

But, again, as a matter of fact, Hijab is seen as a defence women are supposed to use against this sort of oppression or exploitation or harassment or men’s libido.

Yup.

YOU'RE FEMININE!!!!!

That insult dosen't work so well with weomen I suppose

Well to be honest, I find it feminine. If men were meant to shave their beards, why would u grow one in the first place =/ I personally don't think it looks good. I mean unless u want to look like another woman....
