islamic clothing?

Question

do you think that islamics who immigrate to different parts of the world and have settled,should they still wear their hajab or should be able to continue wearing it and why do you come to this conclusion

Answer 1

Yes because
• I can’t be messed with! Hijab protects me – Hijab identifies a Muslim woman as a person of high moral standards to reduce her chances of being harassed.
“O Prophet! Tell your wives and daughters and the believing women, that they should cast their outer garments over their persons: that is most convenient, that they should be known (as such) and not molested.” [Quran 33:59]
• I am liberated from slavery to ‘physical perfection’ – Society makes women desire to become ‘perfect objects’. The multitudes of alluring fashion magazines and cosmetic surgeries show women’s enslavement to beauty. The entertainment industry pressures teens to believe that for clothes, less is better. When we wear Hijab, we vow to liberate ourselves from such desires and serve only God.
• I don’t let others judge me by my hair and curves! – In schools and professional environments, women are often judged by their looks or bodies—characteristics they neither chose nor created. Hijab forces society to judge women for their value as human beings, with intellect, principles, and feelings. A woman in Hijab sends a message, “Deal with my brain, not my body!”
• I feel empowered and confident – In contrast to today’s teenage culture, where anorexia and suicide are on the rise, as women attempt to reach an unattainable ideal of beauty, Hijab frees a woman from the pressure to ‘fit in’. She does not have to worry about wearing the right kind of jeans or the right shade of eyeshadow. She can feel secure about her appearance because she cares to please only Allah.
• I feel the bond of unity – Hijab identifies us as Muslims and encourages other Muslim sisters to greet us with the salutation of peace, “Assalamu Alaikum”. Hijab draws others to us and immerses us in good company.
It is my faith and show my submission to God and God is everywhere

Answer 2

My opinion that: if Hijab shall make you face harrasment or persecution, then take it off, as you are ordered by Quran to keep safe and alive; this is your first duty.. If this country welcomes such thing and have no problem, then there is no problem in wearing it.. but the ideology of Hijab was to identify the woman as muslim, so she'd be protected as people was afraid of the Islamic Strong Nation those days, which doesn't exist now. A woman wearing Hijab in America drags attention more than ordinary women, which is also against Hijabbing ideology.

Answer 3

I think it should be the choice of the individual. I can appreciate the idea of wearing a cloak so your good looks don't get men aroused and lead to barbaric behavior such as rape, but in a civilized culture we have laws we cooperate and we are personally responisble for our own behavior. Taking responisbility for our own behavior rather than force people to dress a certain way so we are not tempted is backwards. We are each responsible for our own behavior, and oppressing women in such a way does not respect free will and oppresses the individuality of a woman by reducing them to an object to be controlled. If that's woman's choice fine, but if a woman has no choice and worse gets beaten or killed for not hiding her face - then the person in the wrong is not the woman it's the animal that beats, kills, or opresses her that is demonstrating a lack of respect for life.

Third world countries are third world countries because of primitive (third world) cultures. You have to look at what a culture does with their time beyond eating and keeping a roof over their head. If the first thing they do is oppress or exploit the weakest (such as women and children being brainwashed by a religion or used as objects in a sex industry). Free will and respect/valuing free will is what being civilized is all about.

Answer 4

Anyone wishing to understand Islam must first separate the religion from the cultural norms and style of a society. Female genital mutilation is still practised in certain pockets of Africa and Egypt, but viewed as an inconceivable horror by the vast majority of Muslims.

The Koran is addressed to all Muslims, and for the most part it does not differentiate between male and female. Man and woman, it says, "were created of a single soul," and are moral equals in the sight of God. Women have the right to divorce, to inherit property, to conduct business and to have access to knowledge.

Since women are under all the same obligations and rules of conduct as the men, differences emerge most strongly when it comes to pregnancy, child-bearing and rearing, menstruation and, to a certain extent, clothing.
The veiling of Muslim women is a more complex issue. Certainly, the Koran requires them to behave and dress modestly - but these strictures apply equally to men.

30. Say to the believing men that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty: that will make for greater purity for them: And Allah is well acquainted with all that they do.

31. And 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; that they should draw their veils over their bosoms and not display their beauty except to their husbands, their fathers, their husband's fathers, their sons, their husbands' sons, their brothers or their brothers' sons, or their sisters' sons, or their women, or the slaves whom their right hands possess, or male servants free of physical needs, or small children who have no sense of the shame of sex; and that they should not strike their feet in order to draw attention to their hidden ornaments. And O ye Believers! turn ye all together towards Allah, that ye may attain Bliss. (Chapter 24: 30-31)

Islam is easy to follow wherever u go. When Allah has imposed certain rules, it is not for His benefit, but it is ONLY for our benefit and success in this world and the live after.

The concept of Hijab is only to avoid the attraction of opposite sex. Before ordering women to wear Hijab, Allah has ordered men to lower their gaze and He knows what is in the people's hearts.

If u would have come across the good followers of Islam, u would notice that those Muslim men do not look at the women they come across.

Did anyone hear the Fifth Trumpet sound during the first gulf war when Saddam lit oil wells?
Prior to the first Gulf war I discovered a large underworld Satanic organization in my home town. I started to tell people about what I discovered, this was the beginning of the rest of my life! Soon I was followed and watched, and was receiving verbal death threats against myself and family members. This organization forces ans seduces its victims into playing occult games and practices, thus placing them into spiritual bondage to witch craft/Demonic forces. Then they are forced to go threw a transcendental meditation ceremony with aid of Witchcraft this is how the Spiritual mark of the Beast is acquired. I was attacked three times by a Demon at night during the war when said oil wells were lit on fire. The third time attacked I commanded the demon to leave in the name of Jesus. This is when this Demon took his Tail placed it on my left hand and sent waves of fire threw my soul. No Lie! Locust=Scorpion demons first woe has past. Beware of Secret Society's.

Answer 6

No one should be able to tell a woman what to wear or what not to wear. Not the governments of Saudi Arabia and the Netherlands, not her father, not her husband, and not me or you.

Most women choose what to wear based on whether or not it makes them look fat. Whose business is it but hers, anyway?

Answer 7

you have just to cover your body so what to wear is not a problem.

Answer 8

no, they should be educated and civilised. If they prefer to be, what their book says, let them be in thier own land.

God is there everywhere, he see us
