The Disgrace of Women's Charm


The Disgrace Of Tabar'roj
( Display Of Woman's Charm! )



In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful



10) Tabar'roj Is The Way Of Jews!!
Jews have an important role in the destruction of nations through the Fitna(seduction/temptation) of women. The spread of Tabar'roj is an effective weapon of their widespread establishments. They have an extensive experience in this field. One should look around only to see who runs Hollywood and famous Houses of "Fashions" and "Magazines" as well as the world of advertisement!. R-rated, X-rated movies and clothes are widespread. In fact the Prophet ( PBUH) said:



"فاتَّقُوا الُدنيا، واتَّقوا النساء، فإنَّ أولَ فتنةِ بني إسرائيل كانت في النساء"



"Watch out for this worldly life (safeguard yourselves fromits temptations); avoid the allurement of women: verily, the first trial for the people of Israel was caused by women.


Their Books also testify to this fact. In the Third Chapter of Isaiah (16, 17):


"The Lord said: "Because the daughters of Zion are haughty and walk with necks outstretched ogling and mincing as they go, their anklets tinkling with every step. The Lord shall cover
the scalps of Zion's daughters with scabs, and the Lord shall bare their heads." Furthermore, "On that day the Lord will do away with the finery of the anklets, sunbursts, and crescents;
the pendants, bracelets, and veils; the headdresses, bangles, cinctures, perfume boxes, and amulets; the signet rings, and the rose rings; the court dresses, wraps, cloaks, and purses; the mirrors,.."
(Isaiah, 3, 18-23; The New American Bible).


Although the Prophet (PBUH) warned against mimicking the Kuffar (non-believers) and their ways, especially the ways of women. Many Muslims do not abide by this warning (11). This is a testimony for the prophecy of the Prophet (PBUH) who said:

"لتَتَّبِعَنَّ سَنَنَ من كانَ قبلَكُم شبراً بِشبر وذراعاً بذراع، حتَّى لو دَخَلُوا جُحرَ ضَبٍ
لتَبعتُموهُم، قيل: اليهود والنصارى؟ قال: فمن؟"



"You would tread the same path as was trodden by those before you inch by inch and step by step so that if they had entered into the hole of a Dhab (a desert lizard), you would
follow them in this also. We said: Allah's Messenger, do you mean Jews and Christians (by your words)" those before you"? he said: Who else (than those two religious groups).(12)


The similarity of those women who disobey Allah and his Messenger to the Jews is very evident because their response to Allah's commands was similar to that of the Jews:



}قالوا سَمِعنا وَعَصَينا ‏‏{الآية [البقرة،93
"We have heard and disobeyed"
(Qur'an 2: 93)



This is unlike the response of the believing women:

} وقالوا سَمِعنا وَأطَعنا ‏‏{الآية [البقرة، 285
"We hear and we obey."
(Qur'an 2: 285)



They remember the saying of Allah:



} ‏وَمَنْ يُشَاقِقِ الرَّسُولَ مِنْ بَعْدِ مَا تَبَيَّنَ لَهُ الْهُدَى
وَيَتَّبِعْ غَيْرَ سَبِيلِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ نُوَلِّهِ مَا تَوَلَّى وَنُصْلِهِ جَهَنَّمَ
وَسَاءَتْ مَصِيرًا ‏‏{[النساء، 115]
"And whoever contradicts and opposes
the Messenger (Muhammad-PBUH)
after the right path has been shown
clearly to him, and follows other than
the believers' way, We shall keep him
in the path he has chosen and burn
him in Hell; what an evil destination!"
(Qur'an 4: 115)

(11) It is sad to see many who dislike the Kuffar in certain ways imitate them in their ways of living thinking that their materialistic progress could not be achieved except in acting, dressing, eating, jogging, sleeping ..like them. The true Muslim, however, remembers that any progress must meet the purpose for our presence on earth: all action must be narrated to the worship of Allah. The Kuffar have taken some of the means which Allah had created and used it for worldly gains. We are ordered to make the means adhere to the purpose of our creation: the worship of Allah Alone and thus uses the means to defend Islam and Muslims and secure the needs of life as well. Why should some of us dress the way Allah ordered and some does not? Should we choose Allah's way or the Kuffar way? All the success is measured by onecriterion: does it meet the pleasure of Allah or not?
(12) A famous and Saheeh hadeeth reported by Al-Bukhari, Muslim and others. The text here is as reported in Saheeh Muslim V. 4, hadeeth # 6448, p.1403


(11)Tabar'roj Is A Filthy Jahilyeeyah ( Ignorance )
Allah (THE ALMIGHTY) says:


}‏ وَقَرْنَ فِي بُيُوتِكُنَّ وَلَا تَبَرَّجْنَ تَبَرُّجَ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ
الْأُولَى‏‏{[الأحزاب،33]
"And stay in your houses and do not
display yourselves like that of the times
of ignorance"
(Qur'an 33:33)



The Prophet (PBUH) described the times of ignorance as filthy and wicked and ordered us to reject it. Allah (THE ALMIGHTY) described the Prophet (PBUH) as :



} وَيُحِلُّ لَهُمُ الطَّيِّبَاتِ وَيُحَرِّمُ عَلَيْهِمُ الخَبَائِثَ ‏‏{
الآية [الأعراف،157]


"He allows them as lawful At-Tayyibat
(all i.e. good and lawful as regards
things, deeds, beliefs, persons, foods,
etc.), and prohibits them as unlawful
Al-Khaba'ith (all i.e. evil and unlawful
as regard things, deeds, beliefs,
persons, foods, etc.)"
(Qur'an 7: 157)



The call to bring about the times of Jahilyeeyah is similar to the call for Tabar'roj, both of which are wicked ways that the Messenger (PBUH) made unlawful. He (PBUH) said:



"كُلٌّ شيءٍ من أمر الجاهلِيَّةِ موضُوعٌ تحتَ قَدَمَيَّ"
"Verily! every matter of Jahilyeeyah is under my feet!"(13)


Tabar'roj and all forms of Jahilyeeyah such as false pride and haughtiness, ill thoughts about Allah, call for falsehood, setting up rivals with Allah, ruling by other than the laws of Islam, usury, etc., are all included.


(13) Narrated by Abu Dawoud, At-Tirmidhi, Ibin Majah, and Ad-Darime'i and Imam Ahmed.

The Disgrace of Women's Charm



The Disgrace Of Tabar'roj
( Display Of Woman's Charm! )

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful


12)Tabar'roj Is An Animal Act, Retardation ( Decadence ) And Decline!!
To reveal and expose are natural behaviors of animals. Whenever man inclines towards such behaviors he starts his decline to a level lower than the level of manhood which Allah had bestowed upon him. Allah bestowed a natural inclination (Fitrah) towards covering, preservation, and safeguarding modesty. To consider the acts of display, exposition, and uncovering as acts of beauty reflects a corruption to the Fitrah and a degeneration in taste and a sign of decadence and decline.

The progress of man's civility is linked to his/her covering of the body. The Hijab cover is fitting to the instinct of Gheerah which draws its strength from the soul. The so called "liberation from the chains of covering" is an instinct that draws its strength from lust which incites Tabar'roj and mixing of the sexes. The one who is satisfied with this latter instinct must sacrifice the first one in order to silence the voice of the innate Gheerah in his heart in return for the "enjoyment" of Tabar'roj and mixing. From this we understand that the Tabar'roj is a sign of corruption of Fitrah, lack of bashfulness, Gheerah, and insensitivity.

(13) Tabar'roj Is A Door To Widespread Evil!!!
Anyone who carefully examines the Islamic Texts (Qur'an and Sunnah) and the lessons of history, becomes convinced about the evils of Tabar'roj and its harm, both on religious and worldly matters especially when it is associated with the mixing of sexes. Some of its underlying consequences are:

The Competition Amongst the Displaying Women in Showing Off Their Beauty{tc \l 3 "A \The Competition Amongst the Displaying Women in Showing Off Their Beauty"}. This is seduction, and it leads to the spoiling of morality and leaves women as merchandise articles exhibited for anyone to look at.

The Corruption of the Morality of Men, Especially the Youth and Those in Adolescence. It pushes them to commit various kinds of sins(14).

The Destruction of Family Ties and Causing a Lack of Trust Between Family Members and the Spread of Divorce.

The Commercial Abuse of Women In The World of Advertisement, Entertainment And Other Areas As Well.
Doing Harm to Women by Declaring Their Ill
Intentions and Evil Conscience Thus Rendering Her Venerable To Harm By The Wicked And The Insolent.



The Spread of Diseases.
The Prophet (PBUH) said:


"لم تظهَرِ الفاحِشَةُ في قومٍ قط حتى يُعلنوا بها إلاَّ فشا فيهُم الطاعُون والأوجاع التي
لم تَكُن في أسلافِهِم الذين مَضَوْا"
"Sins didn't spread in any particular nation until they openly conduct it and as a result, plague and other illnesses that were not present among their predecessors became widespread amongst them."(15)

Facilitates The Sin of Zina (Fornication) By The Eye.
The Prophet (PBUH) said:

"العَيْنانِ زِناهُما النَّظَر"
"The adultery of the eyes is the lustful look. ."(16)

Tabar'roj Makes it Difficult to Lower The Gaze.
Justifiably Brings Down Allah's Punishment

The punishment of Allah is more severe than atomic bombs and earthquakes. Allah (THE ALMIGHTY) says:

}‏ وَإِذَا أَرَدْنَا أَنْ نُهْلِكَ قَرْيَةً أَمَرْنَا مُتْرَفِيهَا فَفَسَقُوا
فِيهَا فَحَقَّ عَلَيْهَا الْقَوْلُ فَدَمَّرْنَاهَا تَدْمِيرًا ‏‏{ [الإسراء،16]
"And when We(17) decide to destroy a
town (population), We (first) send a
definite order (to obey Allah and be
righteous) to those among them [or We
(first) increase in number those of its
Population] who are given the good
things in this life. Then, they transgress
therein, and thus the word (of torment)
is justified against it (them). Then We
destroy it with complete destruction."
(Qur'an 17: 16)

The Prophet (PBUH) said:


"إنَّ النَّاسَ إذا رأوا المًنكَرَ فَلَم يُغيَّروهً أوشك أن يَعُمَّهُم الله بِعَذاب"
"When people see wrong (or evil) and they don't change it, then it is imminent that the punishment of Allah will fall upon them.(18)
(14) You may have seen teen-age kids on the corners of many streets in Europe and in North America rooming around, smoking to get high, half naked, and on drugs looking to engage in sex. Why? What happened? Many try to hide from the hard facts! The drive for lust and materialistic life became the "god" of the new generations: the Pepsi-Michael-MTV- Jackson generations. The result: AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases.
(15) Part of a lengthy hadeeth narrated by Ibin Majah, Abu Na'eem, and Al- Hakim who said: "it has a good chain of narrators". Ad-Dahabi agreed to Al-Hakim's report.
(16) Saheeh Muslim V.4, hadeeth # 6421 p. 1397
(17) Plural Pronoun: Is used to stress the Greatness and Power of Allah Who is One. It is common with Semitic languages for any Monarch to use Plural Pronoun. It is also used by members of the Royal Family in England. To Allah, however, belong the Highest and most Perfect Example.
(18) Narrated by Abu Dawoud, At-Tirmidhi, Ibin Majah and lmam Ahmed.

The Obligatory Conditions for an Islamic Hijab


In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful



.
(1) Covering All Of The Body!
This respected author is in agreement with the position that the face and hands of the woman must be covered as he has detailed this in discussions of the Hijab issues in his book: "The Return of the Hijab, Part 3". Some scholars say it is permissible to uncover the face and the hands of the woman as long as there is no fitna (infatuation) caused by her or inflicted upon her. They see that if: a) she is beautiful and beautifies her face and hands with external substances, and b) the society around her is corrupt where men do not lower their gaze, then it is prohibited for her to uncover her face and hands.

(2) The Hijaab Must Not Be A Display!!
The Hijab itself must not be a display. Allah ordained it so as to cover the beauty of women and not for show off. He (THE ALMIGHTY)
says:



}‏ وَلَا يُبْدِينَ زِينَتَهُنَّ إِلَّا مَا ظَهَرَ مِنْهَا ‏‏{الآية [النور،31]
"And not to show of their adornment
except only that which is apparent."
(Qur'an 24: 31)

}‏ وَقَرْنَ فِي بُيُوتِكُنَّ وَلَا تَبَرَّجْنَ تَبَرُّجَ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ الْأُولَى ‏‏{[الأحزاب،33
"And stay in your houses and do not
display yourselves like that of the times
of ignorance."
(Qur'an 33:33)

It is not logical that the Hijab itself be a source of display.( 1)


(1) Some women put on attractive covers on their heads. This is againstthe purity of the Hijab and its essence.

(3) The Hijaab Must Not Be Transparent
The purpose must be achieved. In order for the Hijab to be a cover, it must not be made of transparent material making the woman covered only by name(!)While in reality she is naked.
The Prophet (PBUH) said:

"سيَكُونُ في آخِر أُمَّتي نساءٌ كاسِياتٌ عارياتٌ، على رُؤوسِهِنَّ كأسنِمَةِ البُختِ،
إلعَنوهُنّ فإنَّهُنَّ ملعُونات"
"In the latest part of my umaaha (nation of Muslims) there shall be women who would be naked in spite of being dressed, they have hair high like the humps of the Bukht camel, curse
them, for they are cursed"(2).

He (PBUH ) added in another hadeeth:



" لا يَدْخُلْنَ الجنَّةَ، ولا يَجِدْنَ ريحَها، وإنَّ ريحَها لَيُوجَدُ من مَسيرةِ كَذا وكَذا"
"They will not enter Aj-Jannah and would not perceive its odor, although its fragrance can be perceived from such and such distance.


This indicates that a woman could cause herself a grave and destructive sin if she puts on a garment that is thin and transparent and which clearly shapes her body's features.
(2) At-Tabarani reported it and Al-Albani in his book "Al-Hijab" said it is authentic.

The Obligatory Conditions for an Islamic Hijab



In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful



.
(4)Hijaab Must Be Roomy, Flowing And Not Tight!!
The Hijab is a safeguard against Fitna. If tight, it will be descriptive of the woman's body and this violates the purpose of Hijab. Usamma Bin Zaid (may Allah be pleased with him) said:


"كَساني رسولً الله- صلى الله عليه وسلَّم- قُبطِيَّة كَثيفة مما أهداهَا له دِحية
الكَلبي، فكَسَوتُها امرأتي، فقال "مالكَ لم تَلبِس القُبطيَّة؟" قلت: كَسَوتُها امرأتي،
فقال: "مُرها فلَتجعَل تَحتَها غُلالة وهي شِعارٌ يُلبِس تحتَ الثوب فإني أخاف أن
تَصِفَ حجمَ عِظامها"

"The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) dressed me with a thick Qubtyeeyah (cotton dress from Egypt) which was a gift that he received from Duhia Al-Kalbi. So I gave it to my wife to wear. He (PBUH) said : "What made you not to wear the Qubtyeeyah?" I said: "I dressed my wife with it. " He (PBUH) said: " Order her to put an undergarment (or gown) under it, because I am afraid it may describe the size of her bones.(3)



(3) Reported by Ad'Diya' Al-Maqdissi, Imam Ahmed, At-Tabarani, Al-Baihaqi, and Ibin Sa'd. It is also reported that Al-Haithami said: "amongst the chain of narrators is Abdullah Ibin Aqeel whose narrations are good; yet according to some scholars there is Da'ff (weakness) associated with him, and that the rest of narrators are Thuqat (men of confidence regarding reporting). Ad-Dahabi said: " the level of Abdullah Ibin Aqeel's narration is not below the rating of "good" (In Meezan Al-I'tidal: Measure of Balanced (verifications); Arabic).

(5)The Hijaab Must Not Be Perfumed With Incense!!
The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said:

"إيما امرأةٌ استَعطَرَت، فَمرَّت على قَومٍ لِيَجِدوا ريحها، فهي زانية"

"Any woman who perfumes herself and passes by some people
that they smell her scent, then she is a Zaniyah
(prostitute).(4)



(4) Narrated by Imam Ahmed, An-Nissa'ee, and Al-Hakim who said: "it has an authentic chain of narration" and Ad-Dahabi agreed.

(6)The Hijaab Should Not Resemble Men's Dress!!
The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said:


"ليسَ مِنَّا من تَشَبَّهَ بالرَّجالِ منَ النَّساءِ، ولا مَن تَشَبَّهَ بالنَّساءِ من الرَّجالِ"
"Women who assume the manners of men are not from us andalso those of men who assume the manners of women.(5)


Abu-Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that:

"لَعَنَ رسولً الله-صلى الله عليهِ وسلَّم-الرجل يلبس لبسة المرأة والمرأة تَلبَسُ لبسَة
الرجل..."

"The Prophet (PBUH) cursed the man who wears the dress of a woman and the woman who wears the dress of a man."(6)

knowingly condones and facilitates the Zina for his wife."(7)
(5) Reported by Imam Ahmed and Abu Na'eem. Al-Albani authenticated it in his book "Al-Hijab" (PP 66-67).
(6) Narrated by Abu Dawoud, Ibin Majah, Al-Hakim, and Imam Ahmed. Al-Hakim said:" it is an authentic hadeeth in accordance with the conditions of (Imam) Muslim," and Ad-Dahabi agreed. It was also
authenticated by Imam Al-Nawawee.
(7) Narrated by An-Nissa'ee, Imam Ahmed, Ibin Khuzayemah, Ibin Hab'ban and authenticated by the scholar Ahmed Shakir.

(7) The Hijaab Must Not Be Resemble The Garments Of The Kuffar!!
The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said:

"من تَشَبَّه بِقَومٍ فَهُوَ مِنهُم"
"The one who takes the similitude (manner) of a certainpeople becomes one of them.(8)



Abdullah bin Ummar (may Allah be pleased with him) said:

"وعن عبد الله بن عمرو- رضي الله عنهما قال: "رأى رسول الله- صلى الله عليه
وسلم- عَليَّ ثوبيَّنِ مُعَصفَرَيْن، فقال: "إنَّ هذه من ثياب الكُفار، فلا تلبسها"

"The Prophet (PBUH) saw me wearing two clothes dyed in saffron, whereupon he said: these are the clothes (usually worn) by the Kuffar, so do not wear them."(9)

(8) Narrated by Abu Dawoud, Ahmed (as part of a another hadeeth), Ibin Taymeeyah said that the hadeeth has a good chain of narration (i.e. that reported by Abu Dawoud) and that it is a "good hadeeth"; As-Siyouti said :"it is "Hassan: Good" and Ibin Hag'er reported it in "Fath Al-Bari" and supported it with another evidence (a Murssal) with a good chain of narration.
(9) Saheeh Muslim, V. 3, hadeeth # 5173
(8) The Hijaab Is Not For Fame!!
