Whereas on the other side of the scale, there are women who would love to wear the islamic headscarves, jilbaabs and dress modestly - but they are forced by the government to remove them. This is getting common in many countries i.e. France etc.

I absolutely agree. I also find it outragous, it an attack on personal liberty and freedom of religion. Mind you, I think the case is a bit more complex regarding children, but for adults noone should be allowed to say whether they should or shouldn't wear a headscarve.
 
Hi kading.


I'm happy you agree, but regarding the children - you have to realise that parent's do make their children wear what they feel is best for their child. i.e. if a woman loved to wear fashionable clothes, she would probably buy gucci or some brand name for her own child, just to make that child look fashionable too. So from that, we realise that the parent chose what she wanted for her daughter, and later on that child may follow that example.


The same can be said about islam, the mother may feel that her child should dress up modestly from a young age, because when the child does this - they will have a unique identity and as the child grows up - she will realise that. The child will feel proud of their faith and like sister cheese said earlier - they will wear it in pride.

However, if the government was to ban this off children too, then the child wouldn't even have that identity, and they would fall prey to what the society around them is doing. Why shouldn't this child have the right to be brought up to how the parent wants, if any other parent can bring their child up to how they want?



Peace.
 
No doubt many do. But in Islamic countries where dressing modestly and headscarves are mandatory there are many who do it because they are forced too, either by the family or by the state.

I say give women a choice. If they want to wear it, they should. If they don't, they shouldn't.

in think we have an obligation to the syariah. the head scarf is an obligation for women but man, and country have an obligation to make this syariah happen by law.

this syariah will disappear when women don't wanna wear hijab anymore. so this our duty (country) to make this syariah exist because this is what God tell us to do.

Salaam,

BEfore the collective can be heard the individual have to make th choice first and foremost.
 
yes and here comes the importance of islamic education in the family.

my mum says she trusts us even if were in paris and this is how muslim should be
 
ISLAMIC CONDITIONS PERTAINING TO WOMEN'S DRESS:

Hijab is a word that indicates not just the headscarf but clothing in its entirety which meets the following conditions :

1. Clothing must cover the entire body, only the hands and face may remain visible (According to some Fiqh Schools) .

2. The material must not be so thin that one can see through it.

3. The clothing must hang loose so that the shape / form of the body is not apparent.

4. The female clothing must not resemble the man's clothing.

5. The design of the clothing must not resemble the clothing of the non believing women.

6. The design must not consist of bold designs which attract attention.

7. Clothing should not be worn for the sole purpose of gaining reputation or increasing one's status in society.


Allah has stated in the Quran that women must guard their modesty.

" Say to the believing women that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty ; that they should not display their beauty and ornaments except what must ordinarily appear thereof. " [Quran : 24.31]

" Say to the believing man that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty ; that will make for greater purity for them, and God is well acquainted with all they do. " [Quran : 24.30]


The reason for this strictness is so that the woman is protected from the lustful gaze of men. She should not attract attention to herself in any way. It is permissible for a man to catch the eye of a woman , however it is haram (unlawful) for a man to look twice as this encourages lustful thoughts.

Islam protects the woman. It is for this reason that Allah gave these laws. In today's society womankind is being exploited, female sexuality is being openly used in advertising, mainly to attract the desires of men and therefore sell the product. Is the woman really free in today's society ? The answer is obviously no, the constant bombardment by the media as to how the ideal woman should look and dress testifies to this.

Islam liberated woman over 1400 years ago. Is it better to dress according to man or God ?

Hijab is also a protection for men against themselves. We all know men are weak.:) when it comes to the oppostie sex.
Also, the Hijab is more than a dress, but it is also a mindset in terms of being modest. Its no use being in hijab and the girl is acting in a scandalous manner to draw attention to herself.
 
No doubt many do. But in Islamic countries where dressing modestly and headscarves are mandatory there are many who do it because they are forced too, either by the family or by the state.

I say give women a choice. If they want to wear it, they should. If they don't, they shouldn't.

Kading, it's also out of respect for the majority there. Just like if you go to a Mosque in a free state, you will see everyone wearing Hijab, even if they don't wear it when they leave the mosque. They wear this out of respect for the people who are at that place of worship for God, and the people there wont have to worry about seeing somebody in non-modest clothing.

Same in Muslim countries, they want their citizens, which the majority are Muslims, to feel confortable to go out and about without worrying about seeing some lady half-dressed.

Hope this helps you to understand,

Yeh but we cant... coz its mixed everywhere lol

As long as u wer the islamic swimsuit then its okay you can go swim anywhere although u might wanna avoid local swimming baths cus the ppl there might stare abit and say what is she doing with a diving suit in a small swimming pool
 
My friend has one of these swimsuits and she says it fits loosely, and it feels really nice to the skin. Like it doesn't weigh you down or anything. She said the manufacturers did a great job with this product and really promoted it (no, she doesn't work with them, lol). The only backdrop is that it's not something normal people will wear, but what hijabi wears normal clothing anyways??
