Do I see a sculpted eyebrow there????? I thought the Hijab was so you DIDN'T attract attention and "look good"???? Kinda defeats the purpose when a hijab goes High Fashion.

I don't see why fashion cannot go with the Hijab as long as this does not become a must have. It's up to the sisters what they like to wear and very often, humility is in the attitude and not in the clothes. You may have a sister very well dresses but who has a lot of humility, and a sister who is dressed very simply but may have a high opinion of herself and may come across as arrogant or unpleasant. It all comes from the heart! |

The whole purpose of the Hijab is to protect the woman from the glances of her non relative male? Or am I wrong? If you are dressing in bright colors and fashionable clothes, you are doing it to be seen. So you are attracting the eyes of non relative men. That's just my outsiders view. I like Hijabs. Don't get me wrong, but I find high fashion and hijabs to be incompatible. Especially considering this fatwa from http://www.askimam.org

hmm so if the older married man sees this stylish young, beautiful woman out and about.. and goes home to his wife, a little less stylish, maybe a little plumper, after raising and caring for the kids. Now maybe he compares the two? It is a question about what are the main purposes of modest dress, hijab, etc. (however you want to term it). Women tend to have more interesting faces, etc. How many people can have an arresting smile, eyes, etc. To highlight them for the public, would it not be drawing attention to them. Just pondering.. |

I guess this is why in theory every woman is supposed to observe the Hijab for it to work properly. And Men are supposed to lower their gaze so they aren't comparing the two...however, we know the world is not perfect. As a Mormon, I'm to dress modestly. My knees and my elbows are the absolute minimum my clothes can be. No mini skirts and tank tops. I actually find it very easy to dress modestly and have little to no attention draw to myself. Non Mormons would never know. I wear capri pants in the summer instead of shorts and I never wear revealing shirts, but I look like any other person on the street. This is also supposed to include no tattoos, extreme hairstyles and piercings. The purpose of modest dressing is to not flaunt what you got and to maintain respect and decorum. I really don't see the scarve as beautiful as they are being the central part of the Hijabi. The heart of a Hijabi is a woman who guards her chasity and preserves her dignity. The scarf is to help protect her, its not intended to draw MORE attention to her. I think a conservatively dressed woman would be better off to not attract the roving eyes of the men who don't know how to lower their gazes. But that's just me. |

Assalamu Alaikum: This is a very strict interpretation of hijab. Narrated Aisha, Ummul Mu'minin: Asma, daughter of AbuBakr, entered upon the Apostle of Allah(PBUH) wearing thin clothes. The Apostle of Allah(PBUH) turned his attention from her. He said: O Asma', when a woman reaches the age of menstruation, it does not suit her that she displays her parts of body except this and this, and he pointed to her face and hands. (Narrated by Abu Dawood # 4092). Ibn Abbas (ra) is one of the most learned men of the Sahaba (Companions). Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) even prayed for him saying "O Allah, make him acquire a deep understanding of the religion of Islam and instruct him in the meaning and interpretation of things." He with reference to Surah An-Nur �except only that which is apparent� as Ibn Kathir narrated with a Sahih (authentic) chain of narrators, said it�s "The hand, the ring, and the face." Abdullah Ibn Omar Ibn Al-Khattab (ra) said �the face and the two hands�. Anas Ibn Malik (ra) said �the hand and the ring�. Ibn Hazm said: �all of this (statements) are in the highest of accuracy. And so are statements by Ali (ra), Aisha (ra), and other Tabi�een�. In addition to this, we may infer from Allah's words, "Tell the believing men that they should lower their gazes", that the faces of the women of the Prophet's time were not veiled. Had the entire body including the face been covered, it would have made no sense to command them to lower their gaze, since there would have been nothing to be seen. |
