Sikhs are told to wear the turban, as God is everywhere (Jews do this too). Women are told to wear a veil for the same reason.

Muslim women don't where the hijab for that reason! We only were it to cover us from men - it's modesty. And obviously, we wear it because God told us too.

Not sure what reason you are talking about...
 
:sl:

Easy question. I explained this in my psychology thread. Which I shall now plug!.

Women, psychologically, have more areas of their body that are attractive. Hair is one of them. Hijab covers the hair to prevent others gazing at them.

Men on the other hand have less factors. The important one is the build (size is also important but you cannot really hide that if you're a monster 6'11!) - God has told the males to also cover up. But, since our hair is not a form of attraction for the opposite sex, we don't get/have to wear the hijab.

Also, the beard acts as a form of covering. Not sure the exact psychological reasons (since that part of the male isn't really seen as attractive....but oh well)

if wearing the Hijab is a way of showing to the world how modest you are.

showing off is vain

vanity is immodest

ergo, veiling is immodest

QED
 
Are you kidding me? How does that even make sense?

So in your opinion nuns wear their habit to show off their modesty, and therefore are immodest?
 
^ Showing off is a kind of vanity and vanity is immodest, if you are wearing to the hijab to show off your modesty that makes it vain: making it immodest
 
:salamext:

^ That don't make sense @ Nerd. Lemme make it clear for you - women cover up because they belong to a man (their hubby or future to be) - if you had something really precious, you wudnt want people to share it with you, would u? The same way women keep themselves covered up for that one person...

I dunno whether i explained it well.... Hmm...
 
Aww what happend to my post...opps.

Anyhow, this is what it said kinda,

Hijab linguistic is not the same, to some extent as the technical term. Hijab may mean screen and so forth, check surah Maryam when Mary, peace be upon him, took a screen, I think ayah 17. Now, your question should be, why is the male hijab different to the female.

As for the Immortal and modesty thing I think he is right, but he is generalising, for example, salah is obligatory, but if one does it to show off, then it can have the opposite effect! Similarly hijab is obligatory, but if someone wears it to show off that they are supposedly modest they it may be wrong?

But the whole point is that this is not the general reason, it is not the religious reason, noone should wear hijab to SHOW OFF their modesty, they may wear it to show that they try to be modest, or they wear it because they believe God has told them to.
