WHY DO MUSLIM WOMEN HAVE TO COVER THEIR HEADS?
"O PROPHET, TELL YOUR WIVES AND DAUGHTERS AND THE
BELIEVING WOMEN TO DRAW THEIR OUTER GARMENTS
AROUND THEM (WHEN THEY GO OUT OR ARE AMONG MEB).
THAT IS BETTER IN ORDER THAT THEY MAY BE KNOWN (TO
BE MUSLIMS) AND NOT ANNOYED." [NOBLE QURAN 33:59]
A MUSLIM WOMAN WHO COVERS HER HEAD IS MAKING A
STATEMENT ABOUT HER IDENTITY. ANYONE WHO SEES HER
WILL KNOW THAT SHE IS A MUSLIM AND HAS A GOOD
MORAL CHARACTER. MANY MUSLIM WOMEN WHO COVER
ARE FILLED WITH DIGNITY AND SELF ESTEEM, THEY ARE
PLEASED TO BE IDENTIFIED AS A MUSLIM WOMAN. AS A
CHASTE, MODEST, PURE WOMAN, SHE DOES NOT WANT
HER SEXUALITY TO ENTER INTO INTERACTIONS WITH MEN
IN THE SMALLEST DEGREE. A WOMAN WHO COVERS
HERSELF IS CONCEALING HER SEXUALITY BUT ALLOWING
HER FEMININITY TO BE BROUGHT OUT.
"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. AND SAY TO
THE BELIEVING WOMEN THAT THEY SHOULD LOWER THEIR
GAZE AND GUARD THEIR MODESTY, AND 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." [NOBLE QURAN 24:30-31]
HIJAB IS NOT MERELY A COVERING DRESS BUT MORE
IMPORTANTLY, IT IS BEHAVIOR, MANNERS, SPEECH AND
APPEARANCE IN PUBLIC .
