Advice from the koran for muslim ladies?

Question

she must be well covered.
avoid tempting men
always bow her head
dont look left or right
(sura 24/31)
ok muslim girls what do you think of this?

Answer 1

That ayat doesn't really say all that you said it does. It mentions about dressing modestly and not showing off your beauty to non-related men. It also says to "lower your gaze," meaning not to ogle at people on the street. That command is also given to men, by the way.

I see nothing wrong with what is mentioned in the ayat. I think it is a dignified and respectable way to behave in public.

Below is the English translation of the full ayat.

Answer 2

24:31-And tell the believing women to lower their gaze and be modest, and to display of their adornment only that which is apparent, and to draw their veils over their bosoms, and not to reveal their adornment save to their own husbands or fathers or husbands' fathers, or their sons or their husbands' sons, or their brothers or their brothers' sons or sisters' sons, or their women, or their slaves, or male attendants who lack vigour, or children who know naught 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 together, O believers, in order that ye may succeed.

I don't see what you're saying. You're not a muslim anymore...why must you try to steal faith from others? Anyway, men are also told to lower their gaze, it doesn't mean to bow your head but rather not to look excessively at things that cause desire.

The other three things you just made up...how can you live with this deception?

Answer 3

always bow her head? don't look left or right? u know very well that's not in the verse.

for men:
[30] Tell the believing men to lower their gaze (from looking at forbidden things), and protect their private parts (from illegal sexual acts). That is purer for them. Verily, Allâh is All-Aware of what they do.
24:30

for women:
[31] And tell the believing women to lower their gaze And protect their private parts and not to show off their adornment except only that which is apparent.......
24:31

Answer 4

Once again, you are giving partial information. I have asked this many times of you, PLEASE give accurate and complete information to back your questions. Why do you find this so hard to do? Is it because it is easier to spread hatred when you don't give the reasons or validation behind your examples. There is always "more to the story" than what you present.

Answer 5

May Peace Mercy and Blessings of Allah(swt) be on all of you readers.

Exmuslima:

you have been naughty again havent you?

lets see what have you got this time:

Hmm verses from the Quran CH24 v:31 wow!!atleast you have read the Quran;well should have read the whole verse .

but what is this ?you forgot to quote the full verse. ,O!! and also you have aded your own words with the words of Quran as well.

Naughty very Naughty this is

let us see what the ch:24 verse 30 actually says:
If you read the Qur’an -
before the mentioning of the ‘Hijab’ for the women, the Qur’an mentioned the ‘Hijab’, for men.

It is mentioned in Surah Nur, Ch. No. 24, Verse No. 30,

"says to the believing men, that… ‘they should lower there gaze and guard there modesty;that will make for greater purity for them:and Allah is well acquainted with all that they do"

means the moment a man looks at a woman and if any brazen or unashamed thought comes to his mind ,he should lower his gaze.

The next Verse… Surah Nur, Ch. 24, Verse No. 31,
says...(which you have quoted partialy and rongly)

‘Say to the believing women, that she should lower there gaze and guard there modesty and display not their beauty,and ornaments except what is that necessary of;that they should draw veils over there bosom, except to their husbands, their fathers,their husbands's fathers,their sons......."

OOOOOps i dotn see" bowing of the head or looking left or right" in this verse . so you have made fun of your self once again.

well no problems!! better luck next time.

Now the Question ,why is "HIJAB" prescribed ?the answer is below.

The criteria for Hijab in Islam, can be found in the Qur’an, and the Sahih (authentic)Hadith. There are six criteria –

1st is extent, which is the only difference between a man and a woman. For the man, he has to be covered from the naval to the knee. For the woman, her complete body should be covered - the only part that can be seen, should not be seen, is the face and the hands up to the wrist. If she wishes to cover them, she is most welcome, but it is not compulsory that she should cover it - Otherwise the full body should be covered. The only part that can been seen… not should not be seen, is the wrist, face and the hands, up to the wrist. This is the only criteria which differs, between the man and the woman.

The second criteria is that, the clothes they wear, should not be so tight, that it reveals the figure.

The clothes they wears… third point - it should not be so transparent, so that you can see through.

And the fourth point - they should not wear glamorous clothes, which attracts the opposite sex.

The fifth point is that a person should not wear cloth, which resembles that of the opposite sex - like you find men wearing earnings. If you wear one earring, it signifies something else - if you wear two earrings, it signifies something else. It is prohibited in Islam.

And the last criteria is, you should not wear clothes which… that resemble of an unbeliever.(like wearing a cross or sikh turbine etc).

These are the six basic criteria of Hijab, in Islam for men and women but unfortunately western media as well as many muslims just push the button in case of hijab for women only because of teh misconception by the critics western media and the social and cultural influence.
That is why it is important to understand the religion not by looking at the followers but at the authentic sourses of the religion
In case of Islam these are The Quran and Sahih(authentic hadith)
. Now coming to the question - why then Islam believe in ‘hijab”(Islamic code of dress. and why are there segregation of sexes?

We have to analise the society in which there is ‘Hijab ’, and society in which there is, ‘No Hijab ’.
The maximum number of crime that takes place in any country… it is in America.
According to a report by the FBI in 1990, in the year 1990… ‘One thousand, two hundred & fifty five women were raped’. These are only the reported cases - And the report says… ‘Only 16% of the cases were reported’. If you want those exact figure, multiply 1,02,555 with 6.25, and you get the answer - more than 6,40,000 ladies were raped in America only in 1990. And if you divide this… by the number of days, divide by 365, you get a figure of One thousand, seven hundred and fifty six women are raped every day, in America, in the year 1990.

And the report in 1991 says... ‘Every day… One thousand, nine hundred ladies are raped’ - May be it is the report of 1991… the Americans got more bold.
another report which came in Autumn, in 1993, it says... ‘Every 1.3 minute, one woman is raped’ -and the crime is on a rise since than.
.
out of 6%- Only 10% are arrested - means only 1.6% of the cases, are arrested. Out of that, 50% are let free before the trial – Means, only 0.8% of the rape cases, are held.

Means, if a man rapes One hundred & twenty five ladies approx, the chances of his being caught, is one. Who would not like to try ?


irrespective a lady does Hijab, or not, a man is commanded… ‘He should lower his gaze’.

I am asking a simple question - if you ask every lady to do Hijab, and when any men look at her and any brazen thought,any unashamed thought comes in him mind he lowers his gaze,will the rape case in USA remain the same, will it decrease, or will it increase?
,
and if suppose after that, if a man commits rape… in Islam, he receives capital punishment - you call it a barbaric law? I have asked this question to many of the gents. Suppose your sister or your mother or your wife is raped, and if you are made the judge -
leave aside what Islam tells you, leave aside what American law tells you - If you are made the judge, what punishment will you give to the rapist of your sister, mother or wife? And all have said… ‘Death sentence’ - Few went to the extreme of saying… ‘I will torture him to death’. Than why these double standards?if your wife or sister gets raped ,death penalty,and if some one else z than it becomes a barbaric law?

I Want to ask you a question… ‘If you apply the Islamic Shariah law in America, will the rape case decrease, will it remain the same, or will it increase? But natural it will decrease.
So we have to understand Islam as a whole and not isolate the principles and verses from the Quran.

only speaking on ‘Hijab ’… you can talk for days - Just I would like to end my answer, by giving a small example.

Suppose two ladies… two twin sisters were equally beautiful - if they are walking down the street, and if round the corner there is a hooligan, who is waiting for a catch… who is waiting to tease a girl. Both twin sisters are walking, both are equally beautiful - one is in the Hijab… Islamic Hijab - one is wearing a mini or a skirt. Which girl will that hooligan tease? … Which girl will he tease? But natural, the one in the short or the mini girl. It is practical proof, that Hijab is been ordained in Islam… not to degrade the woman, but to protect her modesty.

Allah Rightly says IN Surah Al-Ahzab ch:33 v:59 that Hijab protects women from molestation.

Allah says:"O Prophet! tell thy wives and daughters,and the believing women that they should cast there outer garments over there persons(when abroad);that is most convenient,that they should be known(as such)and not molested.And Allah is Oft-Forgiving,Most Merciful".

May peace mercy and blessings of Allah be on all of you readers.

Answer 7

Here's your daily dose of lies,quoting sura's that don't exist impersonating Muslims seems to be your profession.

Answer 8

[024:031] And tell the believing women to lower their gaze (from looking at forbidden things), and protect their private parts (from illegal sexual acts) and not to show off their adornment except that which is apparent (like both eyes for necessity to see the way, or outer palms of hands or one eye or dress like veil, gloves, headcover, apron), and to draw their veils all over Juyûbihinna (i.e. their bodies, faces, necks and bosoms) and not to reveal their adornment except to their husbands, or their fathers, or their husband's fathers, or their sons, or their husband's sons, or their brothers or their brother's sons, or their sister's sons, or their (Muslim) women (i.e. their sisters in Islâm), or the (female) slaves whom their right hands possess, or old male servants who lack vigour, or small children who have no sense of feminine sex. And let them not stamp their feet so as to reveal what they hide of their adornment. And all of you beg Allâh to forgive you all, O believers, that you may be successful.

Your lies are adding to your bad deeds, I suggest you repent before the Day of Judgment.
