PART THREE
Appeared before the sisters were two shadowy figures talking amongst themselves
searchingsoul : Did you view that thread?
Glo: Yeah that one was hilarious
searchingsoul: I loved that picture though
Glo: No, I thought the other one looked better…
Umm_Shaheed: :eek: How did they…?
Labibah: I don’t know sister but I ought to find out!
Glo: Hi Girls
searchingsoul: Hello
Amani: *In a squeak * Hi
madeenahsh: Greetings ladies
Labibah: Greeting Ladies. How did you get in here?
searchingsoul: It’s a free country….
Labibah: This is serious. This is a private area, which has its rules and regulations….
Glo: 
Labibah: Do you understand how serious this is?
Umm_Shaheed: Yeah you just violated one of the rules :rant:
searchingsoul: Well, someone must have forgotten to check our religious background…
Glo: We meant no harm. Just curious about this place…
Arwa: They say “curiosity killed that cat”
Glo: 
oh:
madeenahsh *Kicks Arwa*
Arwa: Aw!
madeenahsh: Welcome our fellow Christians…please take a seat…
Glo: Thanks
searchingsoul and Glo are astonish at the site of Umm_Shaheed and can’t help but stare.
Umm_Shaheed: Oh you like my Niqab…
Glo: The what…?
madeenahsh: This a piece of cloth worn by some Muslim women to conduct themselves and guard their modesty..
Glo: Oh really? Why would anyone do that?
madeenahsh: Modesty is a very important characteristic of Islam… the Hijab is a commandment from God, Most High…
"And tell the believing women to lower their gaze and guard their private parts from sin and not show of their adornment except only that which is apparent, and draw their headcovers over their necks and bosoms and not reveal their adornment except to their husbands, their fathers, their husbands' fathers, their sons, their husbands' sons, their brothers, or their brothers' sons, or their sisters' sons, or their women (i.e., their sisters in Islam), or their female slaves whom their right hands possess, or old male servants free of physical desires, or small children who have no sense of women's nakedness. And let them not stamp their feet so as to reveal what they hide of their adornment. And turn unto Allah altogether, O you Believers, in order that you may attain success.[An-Nur, 24:31]
And also Allah says:
O Prophet, Tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to draw their outer garments about themselves (when they go out). That is better so that they may be recognised and not molested. And Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. [Al-Ahzaab, 33:59]
searchingsoul: Its only for women because all I see is Muslim women dressed from head to toe in black mostly? *confused*
Labibah: Indeed, it is for both men and women
madeenahsh: Allah says in the Quran:
Tell the believing men to lower their gaze (from looking at forbidden things), and protect their private parts (from illegal sexual acts, etc.). That is purer for them. Verily, Allâh is All-Aware of what they do. .[An-Nur, 24:30]
So as can be seen Hijab was first address to the man and then to the woman.
Glo: Right…but why do women have to cover more….
Amani: The reason cited for the difference in required clothing between men and women in this matter is the difference in their anatomies. Therefore, both men and women are excepted to dress simply, modestly and with dignity. Men have to grow their beards, wear loose and unrevealing clothing from their navel to theirs knee.
Labibah: Check this site out

Glo: Cool thanks.
Arwa: There are 7/8 conditions of the Hijab:
1. The whole body, except for the exempted parts should be covered.
2. But any veil, which in itself becomes an attraction, is to be avoided.
3. Garments should not be semi-transparent.
4. Dress should not be tight fitting.
5. Garments should not be perfumed.
6. The form of dress should not in any way resemble that of men.
7. It should not resemble that of non-believers.
8. Garments should not reflect worldly honor
searchingsoul: That is a lot regulations…but isn’t that restricting the women’s freedom and free-will to dress as she pleases.
Umm_Shaheed: What? So those that dress scantily are deemed free? No of course, it does not restrict the woman. In fact, it protects her honor. This dress minimizes sexual enticement and degradation in society for both men and women! It is firstly obedience to God. As He is the One who created us and knows what is best for His creation and has decreed the Hijab for the women.
Allah says:
"There is no compulsion in the religion." (Surah al-Baqara verse 256)
madeenahsh: The hijab isn’t an innovation. It is a Biblical command too. Women wore the Hijab and dressed modestly.
Glo: Really?
madeenahsh: See: I Corinthians 11:5, Genesis 24:65, Ruth 3: 15 and Isaiah 3:23
You know Jesus pbuh ordered men not to look at women lustfully.
” Do not comite adultery.” But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already commited adultery with her in his heart”
Mathew: 5,27,28
Labibah: What I can’t comprehend is why some think just because a woman wears less cloths she must be FREE…and if a woman decides to reject what “Man” tells her not “God” then she must be oppressed and trapped!
searchingsoul: perhaps, because she has the chose to wear what she wants and Muslim women don’t.
Labibah: I beg to differ. Women of the West don’t entirely have 100% choice of how to dress.
Glo: What do you mean?
Labibah: The law sets limitation regarding what you can expose…you can wear a mini-skirt and a tiny top but you can’t entirely go naked. That would be a criminal offense. Covering them slightly is a sign of liberation for women though….
Glo: hmmm…
Arwa: We have our free will whether to submit to God or not….
"There is no compulsion in the religion."
It is in our best interest whether we want to obey Allah. If we do not follow His commands then we are deemed as disobedient slaves and we will be accountable for our actions in the Day of Judgment.
