Re: Why hijab in Islam??????

I'm sorry but your posts are increasingly difficult to understand. They are largely incomprehensible and might actually be saying the opposite of what you intend sometimes. You might be at risk of spreading misinformation about your own religion, Naben ji.

When talking about hijab, one needs to be very clear about the meaning of the term 'hijab' and precise with which garments one is describing.

My understanding is that the degree of coverage a woman must observe in Islam is a matter of debate within the community itself. Anything you tell us would only be one side of the argument unless you can provide an article which covers (haha) the entire issue.

Re: Why hijab in Islam??????

Yes, my dear sister

I love the debate
In all details

You can ask for anything in Islam

Hijab is an obligation and a necessity for every Muslim woman
In order to protect them from any harm or assault
Veiled women that encourages you to respect them
Women dressed in scandalous
Extremists
Encourages you to abuse her
Regardless of the laws


yes
The man also
Must be inside
Honor, integrity
And high morals
But
Women are the other half to the man
For adornment and should not be blatant
Her clothes and entice men gross
Because the man
Humans is in the first place
He has feelings and sensations
We can not deny

Veil
Prevents bad ideas

The women uncover their breasts Persians their heads and said avert your gaze about them)) narrated by Imam Bukhari


Western society
Full of adultery, betrayal, sexual harassment and illegitimate children and family disintegration


In ignorance
Hijab for women with high-Shan
Housemaid did not wear veil to signify that a simple

-Terms Islamic hijab?! :
A: The Islamic hijab must meet the 8 conditions as the scholars said, are:
1 - Not to be a garment of fame.
2 - and that is not brazen thin (ie, should not be transparent).
3 - and that covers her all the body except his face palms.
4 - and that is not in itself a decoration.
5 - and not to be embodied for the body (ie, should not be tight).
6 - and should not be perfumed with bakhoor.
7 - and that does not resemble the clothing of the man.
8 - Finally, that does not resemble the dress of kaafir women.

Re: Why hijab in Islam??????

Naben ji, some Muslim women do not wear a headscarf, yet some others feel everything should be covered except the eyes (niqab) and yet others want everything covered except one eye, and others again say they woman shouldn't be seen at all and so we have the burqa with the screen over the eyes.

Sikh women should not wear a veil over their faces and are prohibited from veiling their faces in Darbar Sahib, Waheguru! Dhan Dhan Guru Amar Das Ji wouldn't hold audience with a woman wearing a veil.

If being veiled should remove the threat to personal safety, why is Afghanistan, famous for burqas, also famous for violence against women?

Arguments as you have presented here do a disservice to Muslim men by giving the impression they cannot control their lust in any way. That a mere glimpse of a woman will send them into a lusty rage.

It says nothing from the woman's perspective - it is all about the men, men, men and it is a bit patronizing when you say women are but for the adornment of men (yet women can't have any adornment themselves, not even a pretty headscarf, according to the information you presented).

When I was a member of a Muslimah forum, many of the women there were very fond of their headscarves, abayas, and even niqab. It was for them a connection to Allah, they felt they were obeying Allah, and in Sikh terms I think they felt their hijab was a curtain between them and the Maya in the outside world. I think it's wonderful that they read for themselves and make educated decisions about what they want to wear without some men saying 'If you don't cover yourself up I'm going to rape you!' which is kinda how it sounds when men try to tell women that hijab is so necessary for them. I find myself thinking, perhaps men should be taking a little bit more responsibility for themselves...

Unfortunately, hijab doesn't protect women for abuse and assault. The only thing that will protect women is proper education of everyone - men and women. And even then, a bad apple is not going to think twice about abusing a woman just because she's wearing some kind of covering.

And Western society has problems, and so does the Arab world Naben. The Arab world is not perfect (as much as you'd like to believe it is). However, the root of all evil in Western civilisation is not because women don't cover up everything except their face and palms.

Also, I've done my learning on Islamic websites, watching Islamic da'wah shows on TV, and speaking with actual Muslims and hearing their life experiences and referring to their sources. This is a much better way than one person bringing their views to me on my own turf, so to speak, where I am more inclined to give a response from the Sikh perspective and not give the subject proper consideration or further investigation.

Re: Why hijab in Islam??????

Respected members

You say the Taliban and Afghanistan
And

These countries punish the victim and the abuse of Islam
so
I am talking about Islamic law



-- The punishment for rape in Islam: For the rapist punishment for adultery, which is stoning if he was married, and one hundred lashes and banishment for one year if he is not married.
The fact that the rapist was punishment for adultery, that's what you do not rape threat - weapons, it was at gunpoint, it would be a warrior, and applies the limit mentioned in the verse: ((33) Indeed, the penalty for those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger and strive upon earth [to cause] corruption is none but that they be killed or crucified or that their hands and feet be cut off from opposite sides or that they be exiled from the land. That is for them a disgrace in this world; and for them in the Hereafter is a great punishment) Round / 33.
He chooses the ruling of the sanctions of the four mentioned in the verse as it deems appropriate, and the interest of achieving a common security and safety in the community, the assailants reportedly corrupt.

-Woman does not have any punishment
Condition
Forensic doctor
Punishment for men only

-Rape is taking something by force and injustice, and is now used exclusively to refer to symptoms of abuse of women by force.
Ugly, a crime forbidden in all religions and is at all wise people and owners of the normal mushrooms, and all regulations and laws of this land the laborers, and signed by the most severe penalties, with the exception of some countries that raise the punishment for a rapist if he marries his victim! It demonstrates the reversal of instinct and dementia, as well as the lack of religion or lack thereof when those who Dedua God says in the legislation, we do not know any affection and mercy will be between the executioner and his victim, especially since the pain of rape does not remove days and also just time - as they say - and so I tried many of the suicide and was raped a number of what many of them to Jordan, has proven the failure of these marriages, but not accompanied by humiliation and degradation of women


-Must study Islam properly
You will feel surprised and admired


hijab

Imposition of the veil is the duty of every Muslim woman and not a choice, such as prayer and fasting
And so on

Muslim women which does not wear the hijab,
Disobeying the orders of Allah and His Messenger


Allah says in the Holy Qur'an
36. It is not for a believer, man or woman, when Allah and His Messenger have decreed a matter that they should have any option in their decision. And whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger, he has indeed strayed in a plain error.



-Veil something basically
Not only in Islam
But
In Judaism and Christianity also
By interpolating

-Hijaab for men

People usually only discuss 'hijaab' in the context of women. However, in the Glorious Qur'an, Allah (swt) first mentions 'hijaab' for men before 'hijaab' for the women. The Qur'an mentions in Surah An Noor:

"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."

[Al Qur'an 24:30]

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

So you're telling me that no veiled woman, whether Muslim or Catholic, is ever raped or abused because God doesn't allow bad things to happen to them? So, how come it still happens, all over the world? Because *drum roll* a headscarf isn't the cure-all of society.

Also, it is your opinion that women must wear hijab (however you want to define it) as I have seen some people who argue it is in fact optional.

Re: Why hijab in Islam??????

naben ji
Can you please through some light on the hudood law. It was passed in Pakistan Parliament based on Islamic laws.

According to this ordinance a rape can only be proven if there are 4 adult Muslim male eyewitnesses. Otherwise not.
In case of a non Muslim victim, non Muslim eyewitness is acceptable.

http://www.pakistani.org/pakistan/legislation/zia_po_1979/ord7_1979.html

What are your views on this? Dont you think a woman is hard done by here. And if there are 4 Muslim eyewitnesses to the rape then why do they do nothing to stop it?

Respected members

verse of Surah An Noor, says:

"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 veils over their bosoms and not display their beauty except to their husbands, their fathers, their husbands' fathers, their sons ... "

[Al Qur'an 24:31]


- Hijaab includes conduct and behaviour among other things

Complete 'hijaab', besides the six criteria of clothing, also includes the moral conduct, behaviour, attitude and intention of the individual. A person only fulfilling the criteria of 'hijaab' of the clothes is observing 'hijaab' in a limited sense. 'Hijaab' of the clothes should be accompanied by 'hijaab' of the eyes, 'hijaab' of the heart, 'hijaab' of thought and 'hijaab' of intention. It also includes the way a person walks, the way a person talks, the way he behaves, etc.


The reason why hijaab is prescribed for women is mentioned in the Qur'an in the following verse of Surah Al Ahzaab:

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

[Al Qur'an 33:59]

The Qur'an says that Hijaab has been prescribed for the women so that they are recognized as modest women and this will also prevent them from being molested.

- Example

Suppose two sisters who are twins, and who are equally beautiful, walk down the street. One of them is attired in the Islamic hijaab i.e. the complete body is covered, except for the face and the hands upto the wrists. The other sister is wearing western clothes, a miniskirt or shorts. Just around the corner there is a hooligan or ruffian who is waiting for a catch, to tease a girl. Whom will he tease? The girl wearing the Islamic Hijaab or the girl wearing the skirt or the mini? Naturally he will tease the girl wearing the skirt or the mini. Such dresses are an indirect invitation to the opposite sex for teasing and molestation. The Qur'an rightly says that hijaab prevents women from being molested.

So the hijab an obligation such as the five pillars of Islam

In Islamic countries
Delinquent
Known in the inside that veiled Muslim women beautiful more than a woman dressed in scandalous
And wishes to see any part of her
Candy-covered
Take hearts
More than a Stripper



The legitimate boundaries of Islamic law

This within the Holy Qur'an and the Hadith

1 Adultery
2 theft
3. Rape
4 murder
5 Divorce
6 drinking alcohol
7 Interest
8 gambling
9 magic and sorcery
10 slander chaste women, indiscreet but believing
God put laws to these limits in order to correct the community and
And that person thinks a thousand times before doing any heinous crime and is located under penalty of law
And it becomes a lesson for each person



But
Islamic countries
Do not apply Islamic law in the Holy Qur'an and the Hadith
Going fancies
who is on the whims [/FONT]

And contrary to
And follow the false doctrines and Shiite Baha'i, and so on

Pakistan, Afghanistan

Muslim is not pleased about it
But freedom is constrained by oppressive governments the power-hungry



Rights are decided by allah is has enough prestige, respect and sanctity do not dare someone to violate or transgress against them,
Command of the Prophet, peace be upon him and his family and the establishment of the border, he said: «Establish the limits of God in the near and long term, do not take you in allah to anybody as long»



So
This is an appeal to all Muslims and non-Muslims

Please don't call anyone's religion 'false'. It is not polite.

And in some parts of the world, the Muslimah would unfortunately be harassed because of her hijab clothing, rather than the mini-skirt wearer. That is a sad fact.

It is also a sad fact that women in Islamic countries are exposed to violence even though their wear hijab.

I am grateful to Sikhi for giving me a moral compass which encourages modesty but leaves the specifics up to me.

In other news, I find myself infatuated with the headscarf, and sometimes wish I could wear my chunni more like the muslimahs do.

On the other hand, I'm glad I have the freedom to choose.

As per gurbani, having four wife, by all means degrade feelings of woman by being used as commodities for offering and marrying them to someone who already has wives or confine themselves in ‘purdah’ though psychologically, women of that faith have accepted these unjust rules. They have resigned to male dominance and allowed themselves to become second-class citizens under the concept of modesty. Guru Ji called for upliftment of woman and changed all this with the revelation of the Khalsa. He gave women the opportunity to live life free of the chains of a dogmatic society. Whereas a woman had been contemptuously called a childbearing machine, the Guru respected her for her creativity and said, “Blessed is the mother who creates life” (Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji, p. 32). The sixth Guru, Guru Hargobind, respected women by saying, “Woman is the conscience of man.” Unlike the practice and belief prevalent Guru Nanak declared their status not as seducers and corrupters of men but nurturers and companions to be held in high esteem. Many Muslims argue that every person has an aura, thats why they cover their women. But question rises now WHY they don´t cover themself? Obviously the reason why they cover the women is : that they cant control themselfs and want to supress their women. In the Guru Granth Sahib, the veil is compared as demeaning to women. As gurbani tells us, 'bhulan andar sabh ko abhul guru kartar - only God who does not make mistake. If it was that bad God wouldn't have made catch woman for man but would have covered the face of woman at the time of birth.

Further killing woman in the name of ‘honor killing’. The problem of ‘honor killings’ is not a problem of morality or of ensuring that women maintain their own personal virtue; rather, it is a problem of domination, power and hatred of women who, in these instances, are viewed as nothing more than servants to the family, both physically and symbolically.Thus in our concept of life, religion and politics, the female gender takes no priority but Sikhi and Guru does.The physical gender takes no priority in the matters of this world. In the context of Gurbani, we are all women and only Waheguru is the male. I think we are all aware of that?They were considered a subordinate entity, worthy after the death of their husband only to be burned on their partner's funeral pire (an act referred to as sati). Guru Nanak was appalled by this societal behaviour, and rightly spoke out against it. In many respects, Guru Nanak Dev Ji was the first women's rights campaigner in the sub-continent (and perhaps even the world), which is kinda neat.

my dear brother



Wives
Marriage in Islam
Several cases
1 - the marriage of one wife
This happens for the majority of Muslims


2 - to marry two wives or more to four
Not any person can marry four wives
There are certain conditions
Justice among them - to spend on them - the ability of health - the provision of adequate housing





Punishment on a spiritual level, why?
This is the law of Allah
Is applied to certain cases
To save society from destruction and falling into sin and adultery
Widow its own - the widow and her children - Women do not have a husband and so

A simple example
In Iraq, Palestine, and many countries are full of war and colonialism
You will find widows and orphans and the homeless
What is the solution here?


Women can divorce easily
In case of dissatisfaction with polygamy
This is their legitimate rights


Therefore, Islamic law inside the solutions to all problems of society

Do not look to bad examples, which continuously married without needless

Islam is bigger than that
Another kind of wisdom is only known for a number of scholars steeped in the Sharia.
The second type of wisdom: but no one knows except the Prophet inspired by God Almighty.
The third type of wisdom: What accounted for Allah - Almighty - his knowledge


allah duided you.

Having relations with more than 1 woman is adulterous. Therefore a man with 4 'wives' is committing adultery by default and should be punished as on a spiritual level marriage with more than 1 person is not possible!!

Nor is it actually natural or equal. :motherlylove:

One cannot have a loving, mutual relationship with two or four women. Love like that can only be experienced between two people who pledge themselves to each other.

To be sexually involved at the same time with two, three or four women in legalized unions is simply unethical. It would be founded surely upon self-gratification for the man, mere pleasure.

Polygamy destroys this intimate bond of affection, and it is not good for children to grow up in any other home except a stable, monogamous relationship between two people who love and support each other. There is science to back this up.

Otherwise the sexual act would not require one male sexual organ and one female sexual organ. It is the natural order for one man's semen and one women's feritilized egg to create a new life. You cannot create life with multiple sperm fertilizing one egg - one sperm, one egg..."When you make the two into one" as Jesus tells us.

Catholics believe that there are two books of primary revelation (for our faith): The Bible and Nature.

We must heed the natural law ordained by God and polygamy is clearly contrary to it.

Thanks be to God that in this era there should be equality between men and women. To be in a relationship in which a woman must share affections of a man with other women is not equality but legalized adultery. It reduces marriage to property rights.

Sharing a husband would lead to it being a purely physical, erotic, lustful relationship and an unequal one at that. The very core of the sexual act between man and wife is to express commitment and fidelity and a spiritual coming together, a true union between two bodies, minds and souls which manifests the oneness of God. This oneness cannot be found within polygamy.

I am sorry brother Naben but that is how I and most 21st century people see it. We will not revert back to patriarchal, male supremacist norms :(

And yet polygamy is not outlawed in Sikhi according to the SGPC rehat maryada... It is discouraged but allowed. Figure that out.

As pro monogamy as I am, I still think there may be merit in communal living where men can have more than one wife when then women are together and raise the children together, as in some of the native tribes you see around. Perhaps monogamy is actually what encourages jealousy and attachment?

And also, one man with four wives can generate far more offspring than one woman with many husbands. And frankly, it's hard enough keeping up with just one!! Lol

I can also see legalised polygamy in Islam in historical context- pre Islam Arab tribes treated women far worse than Islam and had no limit on the number of wives, with no responsibility for them.

And lets not forget that todays Muslims usually have just one wife anyway, and a woman can specify in her marriage contract that she can be his only wife.

Thank you
This wonderful illustration


Respected members
and
For further clarification

The status of women in Islam is often the target of attacks in the secular media. The ‘hijaab’ or the Islamic dress is cited by many as an example of the ‘subjugation’ of women under Islamic law. Before we analyze the reasoning behind the religiously mandated ‘hijaab’, let us first study the status of women in societies before the advent of Islam. [/FONT]

1. In the past women were degraded and used as objects of lust

The following examples from history amply illustrate the fact that the status of women in earlier civilizations was very low to the extent that they were denied basic human dignity:

1. Babylonian Civilization:

The women were degraded and were denied all rights under the Babylonian law. If a man murdered a woman, instead of him being punished, his wife was put to death.

2. Greek Civilization:

Greek Civilization is considered the most glorious of all ancient civilizations. Under this very ‘glorious’ system, women were deprived of all rights and were looked down upon. In Greek mythology, an ‘imaginary woman’ called ‘Pandora’ is the root cause of misfortune of human beings. The Greeks considered women to be subhuman and inferior to men. Though chastity of women was precious, and women were held in high esteem, the Greeks were later overwhelmed by ego and sexual perversions. Prostitution became a regular practice amongst all classes of Greek society.

3. Roman Civilization:

When Roman Civilization was at the zenith of its ‘glory’, a man even had the right to take the life of his wife. Prostitution and nudity were common amongst the Romans.

4. Egyptian Civilization:

The Egyptian considered women evil and as a sign of a devil.

5. Pre-Islamic Arabia:

Before Islam spread in Arabia, the Arabs looked down upon women and very often when a female child was born, she was buried alive.

2. Islam uplifted women and gave them equality and expects them to maintain their status

Islam uplifted the status of women and granted them their just rights 1400 years ago. Islam expects women to maintain their status.

[/FONT]In the Bible, also:

Jesus did not prohibit polygamy,

2 Chronicles 13:21 (BLB)
Abijah waxed great, and married 14 wives, and begat twenty and two sons and daughters 16.

2 Chronicles 11:21 (BLB)
I like Rehoboam Maacah daughter of Absalom above all his wives and concubines for him, because he took 18 wives and concubines 60, was born twenty and eight sons and daughters 60.

For the Prophet Sulaiman [Solomon], and I think you know without martyrdom, had hundreds of wives and concubines hundreds.

After these things known until Ibrahim ... And his concubine, whose name also carries a good Reumah of, Gaham, Thahash and Maacah.


And the sons of concubines, which Abraham had, Abraham gave gifts and sent them away from Isaac his son, while he was living until now, the east, even in the East (Genesis 25:6)



How about Sarah and told Abraham to go to the concubine Hagar, as you know, probably emigrated did not want to. It was then you know what happened, she left in the desert. Remember God is God of Abraham, as a concubine and her child, but that it was.



Again, do not place Jesus may Allah be pleased with him, did not prevent polygamy, but Islam limit the number of wives to four
Islamic law is clear and convincing


illustrate the great truth of Islam

Study of Islam is different already heard from the media
Feel that there is someone fool you
And wants to walk away from the truth

allah guided you
