Assalamu Alaikum Sister Jenni:

My husband has. Sometimes when he goes to Jumma from work he wears jeans or slacks and many times the Brothers have asked him why he doesn't wear a thobe or djellaba. I told him I think they are right as you are supposed to dress in your best clothes for the prayer. Now he takes a thobe with him when he will be praying at the mosque and on Fridays.

I love men in Islamic clothing. I think it makes them appear quite beautiful.

Salaams, Dwanna

Jenni, I understand what you mean.  A lot of women/men ask me to wear the Hijab, and I do want to wear it but only when I have it in my heart as I'm doing it for Allah not for these women.  But sometimes when I think about it, they are telling me to do something good.

Alhamdulillah!

And yes, hijab is part of islam, like all other aspects ,thats important too, but people can be harsh. It does happen that they single out hijab to attack on you but ignore other things. Well, thats where we muslims are at fault, am i right? Allahu Aalaam.

Assalamu Alaikum Sisters:

Perhaps they focus on hijab because it is visible?

yes, probably because of its "physical " attribute..... but other things are visible too like beard....also ...if someone openly backbites, rarely anyone discourages it. isnt that "visible" in a sense..... what do you think?

Assalamu Alaikum:

Maybe the Muslims here are very nosey, but they will ask about your beard if they know you.

If someone openly backbites that is visible.

I don't know many Sisters who do so openly, they kinda sneak it in when you least expect it. I struggle really hard not to gossip, but I am guilty of listening, which is as bad. For me, it is hard to know the line between when someone is backbiting or someone needs to share a problem or wants help with a situation. Sometimes you just need to get something off of your chest. What I try to do is call a friend in another state who will not know the person I am speaking about and I do not use names.

Mishmish, maybe they are nosey. Or maybe my husband looks like he would tell someone to take a hike if they asked him why he doesn't have a beard, which he probably would would.
You cant be a good muslim if you are not decent and have a cold heart. Be a decent and kind person and care for women and children and the elderly.
