Is it faraz upon the believing women to wear a niqqab? If yes is there any hadith's to prove this?
I wear the niqqab yeah (im not trying to big myself up or anyfin) but some of my mates feel that it's not faraz whereas i feel it is, but they mentioned that if you don't wear it in Hajj then im sure you don't need to wear it when you not in Hajj :sister:
discuss please

Like brother Ansar-al-Adl said, theres differing views and in the end its the individual. Some things I've seen however are quite worrying, for example, I've seen sisters who only cover their hair and do not wear niqab be insulted for not covering their face, I've also seen sisters tell interested non-muslims 'you have to cover your face' before even explaining Islam. I definately think it should be a personal decision and not be preached as fard.

Salaam.
im sorry but i will have to kindly disagree with u.
why shouldnt it be preached as farth? if i believe its farth i will for sure preach it farth. I feel by u saying ppl shouldnt preach it as being farth u are if fact indirectly preaching it to be otherwise.
Okay sis. Im gan ask u a question....no im being serious.
If I have a intention to wear the niqab once I am married. Do u think Allah will let me off (not punish) for not wearing it now?
I used to wear it before and I have stated my reasons (in the thread) for taking it off.

I have a clear intention. And in Islam we believe that intention is very important. So judging on my intetion....I wonder if Allah will....let me off!Of course, once I marry kay: it'll be a different story.
i dont know about that, making niyah is one thing and saying Allah will forgive me if i dont do something is another [ while knowing what ur doing is wrong or may end in result of Allahs punishment upon u] be very careful and do not fall into the traps of Shaytaan

No traps sis. Dont worry. Once my heart is set on something.....it makes sure is done!!!
sister i dont mean any disrespect but in the society we live in wearin niqab is hard, I understand it prevents certain situations from taking place and I am very much in favour of women wearing niqab, please dont take me wrong.
However, i understand some peoples situations, for example if I wear niqab I would quite literally become homeless, my family would disown me(being from a non-muslim family) I would lose my job and this would put me in a very difficult situation. For these reasons I do not wear niqab, as much has my heart has a longing to wear it.
As soon as I am in a position where my husband can support me fully then I will leave work and wear niqab full-time, inshaallah. until then I have the intention in my heart and I hope, inshaallah, Allah knows the reasoning behind what I do.
Allah never wants things to be diffucult for us like that, I do wish the sisters can be more easy on themselves mentally when it comes to wearing Niqab, try not to feel so guilty about not wearing it, and just do your best is all you can do, we are human beings at the end of the day, non of us perfect and no one . included Allah(No reasonable person) expects you to be this perfect muslimah.
We do our best for all our faults.
That was really nicely put.Personally I dont have issues with not wearing niqab, now is just not the right time for me. InshaAllah i will wear it in the future permanently. What bugs me is other people saying its FARDH u gotta wear it now. How is it physically possible for me to do that? simply, its not!(and im sure there are other sisters in a similar position)
NIQAB?
i wear a niqab all the time all though it is not compulsary i do it as i dont want any other male looking at me as i am married and feel comfortable wearing it and would tell another sister to only wear it if she feels comfortable
I want to wear the niqaab and i have bugged my dad about it soooooooo much but he doesn't let me!! I bugged him one day just to wear at least once and he let me so when i wore it i couldn't believe the peace, beauty and rahma i felt in my heart!! Subhanallah i love the niqaab so much and i really want to wear it but i can't!!:'( I tried everything and my dad just doesn't give in!! I am still not giving up though!! Just the other day i went to him again!!*sighs* Inshallah i pray that my dad will sum day let me!! I really wanna wear it!!

Salaam.
niqab is actually as easy or as hard as the individual makes it.
if the Wives of Muhammed Sallallahu alayhee wassalam and the women of that time wore it, and they were better than any of us can ever reach near, -they are the best examples- if they wore it in such a society..why should we not take their example and wear it in such a society, filled with, filled with fitnah?
Our Lord! Verily, we have heard the call of one calling to Faith: 'Believe in your Lord,' and we have believed.
Our Lord! Forgive us our sins and expiate from us our evil deeds, and make us die (in the state of righteousness) along with Al-Abrar
Ameratul Layl Jazakallah khair for sharing your niqaab experience, its not easy to share something like that,
i too would like to begin wearing niqaab but I have had hassle for wearing hijaab before and fear wearing niqqab would make me a target for racists and anti muslim people, also i dont drive and travel on public transport with my children a lot,
i wondered do sisters who wear niqaab find it hard to meet new people, non muslims and muslims? as they cannot see your expression and some may find you intimidating?
eyes of mine.. mashallah how would u know niqaab would suit me lol!!!!!

eid mubarak everyone
please read this and answer people,
i'm acctually gonna buy a niqaab inshaallah.... Allhumdulilah for e bay!!
Salaamz, what I think about the niqaab? Hmm..personally I dont wear it, my mom does and she loves it...I dont feel right wearing it cuz if I put it on its 4 the wrong reasons and I wanna know i'm doing it 4 me, plus I dont feel brave enough 2 wear it in America, haveing BUSH as a President, I dont fear him or anything its just all thats been going on!!!, But sis feel free 2 wear it, I think the niqaab makes the women look even more pretty, cuz all you see iz their eyes...(I use to tell my mom can I wear a niqaab? she well give me 1 and I feel like i'm da stuff, then once we hit da stores we were goin to I took it straight off!) I wanna wear it soooo bad, but its sumthin in me that just dont wanna put it on.....Salaamz
P.S sis Ameeratul Layl(I well make dua that you put it back on InshaAllah) and make du'a 4 me as well! plz
Hey sis!! I just wanna say onething!!:sister:
The reason my dad doesn't let me wear the niqaab is cuz' of the same reason you don't wear it!! But u see...You shouldn't be scared sis!! You are doing this for the sake of Allah and Allah sees your intentions so Allah will always protect you!! No matter where!! Do you believe that if the whole world gathered togther to get rid of you and you were in the middle of them that they couldn't lay a finger on you except by Allah's Will!! And do if it was meant for you to die that no one can help except by Allah's will!! So if you do this for the sake of Allah then I am 100% sure that Allah will protect you and guide you!! You have to truly believe in this!! Sis Allah loves us and doesn't want anything to be difficult for us!! Allah didn't put pressure on us so if you don't feel that its the right time for you to wear niqaab sis i don't wanna push you!! But i just want you to think about what i told you and truly believe in that!! Inshallah i'll make dua for you!!
Much ,

Mashallah those who want to wear the Niqab may Allah make it easy upon you and for those who are wearing it may Allah reward you.
I want to say that wearing the niqab is not as aeasy as it seems yes. there will be alot of problems. many of my friends had problems, but not everyone is the same some sisters have to provide for themselves meaning they dont have a mother or father to look after them and if they wear the niqab they will not get a job. There are cases in which where wearing the niqab will become as a harm to u, in such cases wearing the niqab because haram upon u, But this is the problem we dont understand what applies to us and what we must do.
Once we asked our shiek about niqab and we said Is niqab wajib? and if so what happens if u wear it and u face trouble. ( something to that effect this was a year ago) anyway he said "Wearing it is preferable, but its hard, and i dont think anyone has that kind of Iman today" ( may Allah forgive me if i misquoted him).
Subhanallah look what does that mean? The Sahabas at that time strived to do anything for the sake of Allah, they had FULL 100% tawakul ( trust) in Allah, why cant we just go out there and DO IT JUST for the sake of Allah forget everything else.
Upon you is the Fear of Allah
If you are neglectful
To you comes the sustenance
from places which u have no comprehension of
and if u think for a momnet that the rizq comes from you...
you will have NEVER seen the sparrow eating with the Egale.*
bottom line. weather u wear niqab or u dont, i promise u it wont decrese or increase a morsle from what has already been writtin down for u have, u will NEVER drink one more/less drop of water from that which has already been made for u.
Allah says:
And put your trust in ALLAH. ALLAH suffices as an advocate.
[33:3]
*(both birds fly in the sky the egale is the aggressive, meaning that it would bully the sparrow and eat its food. but since Allah provies they both have a full stomach.)
For those who say its not farth what is it then? Sunnah?
Sincerity...Its all about sincerity, If we are sincere Allah will reward us. Let us take the time out to sit down and ask ourselves.
"Do I want earn the pleasure of Allah, am I willing to sacrifice, am i willing to do anything for the sake of Allah? "
Of course, na3am throughout this great niqab controversy I ask a Question for those who feel "Niqab" is Sunnah. Khair let us take this opinion and lets say niqab is sunnah. what does this mean? you dont have to do it? Is wearing the niqab( even though its ONLY Sunnah ) all of a sudden an act that is insignificant? Such an act of worship that will be over looked? If someone is thinking of praying tahajjud in the 3rd part of the nigh which is mustahab or fasts on Mondays and Thursdays.. do we encourage it and motivate them to do it for the sake of Allah to sacrifice willingly for the sake of Allah, or do we dismiss it as an act that is worthy of little regard? We know the best acts are those which are consistent, for Allah loves acts done consistently.
Ya ikhwatee why is it when it comes to the issue of niqab we are hesitant? And we seek a second opinion? Are we being true to ourselves? Are we being sincere? Why do we always want the easy way out? Why cant we just say"I will do this for the Sake of Allah ONLY"come what may because i know nothing will happen unless that which Allah has decreed.
Say, "Nothing happens to us, except what GOD has decreed for us. He is our Lord and Master. In GOD the believers shall trust."
[9:51]
What is stopping us? Even if we come to believe that Niqabismerly a Sunnah, does this mean we dont have to do it? I have never seen a sister who thinks Niqab is Sunnah wear the Niqab. Why?
Let us not be from those people who think of the Sunnah as unimportant and say it is only the matter of Outward appearances and does not matter, and they go against it deliberately, thinking that this proves how moderate and reasonable they are, as they claim. They are doomed and lost, for the Sunnah of our Prophet(sallahu 3alahe wasalaam) is most dear to us.
Even if a particular aspect of the Sunnah is mustahhab rather than waajib, is there not a reward for us in following it? Do we have so much hasanah that we do not need more?
If you hold the opinion that its Sunnah, let us revive it. So that Allaah may have mercy on me and on you, strive to follow every proven Sunnah that you learn from your Prophet(salaahu 3alahe wasalaam)and do not neglect it, for it will benefit you on a Day when neither wealth nor sons will be of any advantage. Adhere to the Sunnah and teach it to your children. Revive it in the midst of those who are unaware of it, so that you may be among the most blessed of people through the intercession of Muhammad(salaahu 3alahe wasalaam).
