After listening to them, it appears to me that if one wears niqab to maintain modesty, they are free to do so. But if someone finds it uncomfortable , because of various reasons like heat, respiratory issues, issues with verification or identification, they can remove the niqab. Because Islam never wants to cause harm or discomfort for a person. But head covering is mandatory. Hair , chest and back should be covered with the covering properly

[@superwatcher456]

Agreed. Niqab is not compulsory.

[@lilachenry3660]

Stop it please..... How funny you are??? You are sure you are talking about women who in name of fashion could wear tightest dress and just because govt made compulsory to wear mask, she is gonna wear masks even the whole hot dazzling day.... You sure are talking about them, right!? There is no tragedy without grass for you to play it on.... If you think Islam is so easy to follow that you can choose whatever YOU wants to???? Is not this how you excuses your mistakes... Is not this how you gives false reason for your being bad person your whole life... First you play foul and then wants to be Just... Nicely played...

@@lilachenry3660 people like you who enjoy to have a moral high ground about every single aspect of life aren't the type to actually educate someone about religious rules or values. You are talking about women wearing tight dresses, not a single person in this comment section was talking about wearing tight dresses. We were only talking about niqab. And did you not watch the whole video, where even scholars are giving different opinions about niqab, then why are you so agitated over my comment? Also , you say Islam is not so easy, you are quite wrong in this case. Because Allah himself said in Quran that he intends to make life easy for humans, so if you think your opinion is what everyone should care about, you came to the wrong place. Your anger and agitation will not be entertained here so if you want to be angry and agitated pointlessly, go somewhere else . And before that, learn some mannerisms because your way to approach for communication is condescending, Islam detests this kind of attitude too. Also write proper English, or write in your own mother tongue so that KZbin can translate it. Whatever you wrote is incomprehensible.

[@BESTOFTHEW0RLD]

So i was also battling in my head that Quran didn’t say about covering head and hair and what not… I was also thinking that these scholars or dominated people must have made all this up. Or this must be mistaken from Arab culture. I asked Allah to guide me and let me know what I am supposed to know or understand. Then same day the thought came to my mind. That no matter what,I can never pray “SALAH” without covering my head and body as prescribed by scholars for hijab. If Allah does not want to see me in salah not properly dressed in hijab at home then how can Allah accept me not dressed outside in front of non mehrams as recommended by scholars. And since that day my mind was clear about hijab. Now I am a hijabi MashAllah.

There are no fruits for man made inventions, only hijab was ordered, not niqab

[@MrTellyBelly]

I personally think "the fruits of niqab" is being over stated by a niqaabi. Self sacrifice when you dont need to is similar to the situation described in the Quran about Christian monasticism when Allah (swt) said in 57:27 "... and monasticism which they innovated. We did not prescribe it for them (they did so) seeking the approval of Allah... ". Niqaabis are similar Allah (swt) did not prescribe it for women yet they are innovating it to please Allah(swt). As there is no justification for wearing a niqaab in quran and sunnah niqaabis try it dress it up with words like sacrifice, discipline, focus etc. My advice strive hard in those things Allah (swt) has prescribed and don't make it hard for yourself by sacrificing and striving in those things Allah (swt) did not prescribe.

It's that we do it not bcs particular men or women do bad things, we do it for the sake of Allah. Don't make bad men the reason we do our responsibility to Allah. Don't generalize

[@processing6112]

the covering is not just for the protection from men rather it is for women to control their urge of getting all attention and appreciation from opposite gender as in the Quran .Allah told women to lower their gazed and to not display their beauty as the challenge for women and men is different.

[@kirikothesmug3028]

actually it was made clear aand agreed upon that both parties are responsible and will be accountable in front of Allah on the day of judgment. the male for not lowering their gaze and controlling their urge and the female for trying to attract the attention of men by any of the many ways that they can utilize to do so. no matter how settle, sneaky or indirect it is. A verse in the quran mentioned that women should not slam their feet on the ground so that what they wore under becomes known. And the prophet Peace be upon him said in saheeh hadith that a women that put on a perfume on front of men is a Zaniah. So yeah both parties are accountable. and while nothing will 100% guarantee your safety except the protection of Allah after we follow his instructions. not doing so will increase the risk. side note: I am not talking about the matter of covering the face that's a matter of great dispute between much more knowledgeable Muslim scholars. I am more concerned about the accountability statement you made.

[@adambejjaji3079]

@@ZarinaSBibi Those Western clothes are no longer specially made for the kafir, so Muslims (Men) can wear those kinds of clothing. It was narrated that ‘Abd-Allah ibn ‘Umar said: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “Whoever imitates a people is one of them.” Narrated by Abu Dawood, 3512; classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Irwa’ al-Ghaleel, 2691. So just because the West invented planes and cars does that mean we should not use them? Of course not. Those technologies are no longer limited or held praise in Western culture. So wearing this kind of suit is permissible to my knowledge. The Hijab (PROPER HIJAB NOT A SCARF AROUND YOUR HEAD) is a requirement ordained by Allah for all Muslim women. He is not telling how women should dress, actually quite the opposite. The Lord of all Worlds is telling how women should dress. So obey Allah. Lest you will be amongst the sinners.

​@@user-bo7qm1gq3b Depending on your school of Fiqh, Islamic jurisprudence! it varies! Many of the Early Scholars don't consider the face to consetuate Awrah. the Quran doesn't mention the face as part of the 'awrah' at all. The concept of 'awrah' has been elaborated upon and interpreted by scholars over time, the face is not awrah According to Imam Abu Hanifa, the founder of the Hanafi school of jurisprudence, wearing the hijab, which covers the hair and body, is considered obligatory for women. However, he did not deem the niqab, which covers the face, as obligatory. Imam Abu Hanifa's stance was based on his interpretation of Islamic texts and principles, which emphasized modesty while allowing some flexibility in women's dress code. Imam Abu Hanifa's opinions were derived from his interpretation of Islamic teachings, including the Quran and the Hadith. While there isn't a specific verse in the Quran where Imam Abu Hanifa explicitly mentions his stance on the obligation of hijab and the niqab, his jurisprudential rulings were based on his understanding of various Quranic verses and hadiths related to modesty and dress code. One verse often cited in discussions of modesty is Surah An-Nur (24:31), where Allah instructs believing women to lower their gaze and guard their modesty, and not to display their adornments except what is apparent (such as the face and hands). Interpretations of this verse may vary among scholars and schools of thought. Imam Abu Hanifa's legal rulings and interpretations were documented in his works and were passed down through generations of scholars within the Hanafi school. His opinions on the obligation of hijab and niqab are based on his scholarly understanding of Islamic sources and principles. Imam Malik ibn Anas, the founder of the Maliki school of jurisprudence, is renowned for his contributions to Islamic law. While he emphasized the importance of modesty and decency in dress, his stance was not that of it being an obligation of niqab (face veil) Scholars argue that Imam Malik's position was that hijab (covering the hair and body) is obligatory for women, but he did not require the covering of the face with a niqab. They base this interpretation on his writings and the practices prevalent in his time and region. Ibn Hazm: An Andalusian Muslim scholar from the 10th century known for his contributions to various fields of Islamic knowledge. He held the view that covering the face (niqab) is not obligatory, but rather, covering the hair and body (hijab) is sufficient for women's modesty. Ibn Taymiyyah: A prominent medieval Islamic theologian and jurist known for his strict adherence to the Quran and Sunnah. While he emphasized the importance of modesty in dress, he did not mandate the wearing of niqab. He considered hijab (covering the hair and body) as fulfilling the requirements of Islamic dress. Ibn Qudamah: A Hanbali jurist from the 12th century who wrote extensively on Islamic jurisprudence. He held the opinion that while hijab is obligatory for women, covering the face (niqab) is not mandatory.

[@ELIAB424]

​@@user-bo7qm1gq3b2 of the other Fiqhs/ islamic jurisprudence/Schools of thought made Niqab Obligatory for muslim women both Imam Hanbali and Imam Shafi'i are known for their views on the obligation of niqab for women in certain situations. In the Hanbali school, niqab is generally considered obligatory for women in front of non-mahram men. Similarly, in the Shafi'i school, niqab is considered obligatory in specific circumstances, particularly when there is a risk of fitnah or temptation. These views are based on their interpretations of Islamic teachings and jurisprudence.

When they came near us we would lower our jilbabs from our heads over our faces, and when they had passed by we would uncover our faces. Narrated by Abu Dawud, 1562.

[@HifzaArshad1296]

Yes that's exactly what I was thinking! If you want to be modest then as a Muslim women one should try to portray they characteristics and traits of both prophet muhabbed peace be upon him and his woves according to the given situation. Since the covering of face is something which couldn't be portrayed in prophet's sunnah (PBUH), on should follow the sunnah of his wives. Also if you look at the traditional way of closing during the prophet's (pbuh) time, we come across a black abaya with a khimar on top that was thrown forward, covering everything from head to chest. So that's historical evidence as well.

[@salamabdulali7852]

I love my niqab 💜 here is the thing- In order for the middle to exist there must be the two extremes. I’m not an expert, but I live in a western society which is extremely liberal. As a leader of my family and household I find it necessary to express extreme modesty and it is absolutely freeing. InshaAllah my children will find the middle path which is best for them. We have to be realistic about the societies we are apart of and the messages we are sending our children.

Depending on your school of Fiqh, Islamic jurisprudence! it varies! Many of the Early Scholars don't consider the face to consetuate Awrah. the Quran doesn't mention the face as part of the 'awrah' at all. The concept of 'awrah' has been elaborated upon and interpreted by scholars over time, the face is not awrah According to Imam Abu Hanifa, the founder of the Hanafi school of jurisprudence, wearing the hijab, which covers the hair and body, is considered obligatory for women. However, he did not deem the niqab, which covers the face, as obligatory. Imam Abu Hanifa's stance was based on his interpretation of Islamic texts and principles, which emphasized modesty while allowing some flexibility in women's dress code. Imam Abu Hanifa's opinions were derived from his interpretation of Islamic teachings, including the Quran and the Hadith. While there isn't a specific verse in the Quran where Imam Abu Hanifa explicitly mentions his stance on the obligation of hijab and the niqab, his jurisprudential rulings were based on his understanding of various Quranic verses and hadiths related to modesty and dress code. One verse often cited in discussions of modesty is Surah An-Nur (24:31), where Allah instructs believing women to lower their gaze and guard their modesty, and not to display their adornments except what is apparent (such as the face and hands). Interpretations of this verse may vary among scholars and schools of thought. Imam Abu Hanifa's legal rulings and interpretations were documented in his works and were passed down through generations of scholars within the Hanafi school. His opinions on the obligation of hijab and niqab are based on his scholarly understanding of Islamic sources and principles. Imam Malik ibn Anas, the founder of the Maliki school of jurisprudence, is renowned for his contributions to Islamic law. While he emphasized the importance of modesty and decency in dress, his stance was not that of it being an obligation of niqab (face veil) Scholars argue that Imam Malik's position was that hijab (covering the hair and body) is obligatory for women, but he did not require the covering of the face with a niqab. They base this interpretation on his writings and the practices prevalent in his time and region. Ibn Hazm: An Andalusian Muslim scholar from the 10th century known for his contributions to various fields of Islamic knowledge. He held the view that covering the face (niqab) is not obligatory, but rather, covering the hair and body (hijab) is sufficient for women's modesty. Ibn Taymiyyah: A prominent medieval Islamic theologian and jurist known for his strict adherence to the Quran and Sunnah. While he emphasized the importance of modesty in dress, he did not mandate the wearing of niqab. He considered hijab (covering the hair and body) as fulfilling the requirements of Islamic dress. Ibn Qudamah: A Hanbali jurist from the 12th century who wrote extensively on Islamic jurisprudence. He held the opinion that while hijab is obligatory for women, covering the face (niqab) is not mandatory.

[@ELIAB424]

2 of the other Fiqhs/ islamic jurisprudence/Schools of thought made Niqab Obligatory for muslim women both Imam Hanbali and Imam Shafi'i are known for their views on the obligation of niqab for women in certain situations. In the Hanbali school, niqab is generally considered obligatory for women in front of non-mahram men. Similarly, in the Shafi'i school, niqab is considered obligatory in specific circumstances, particularly when there is a risk of fitnah or temptation. These views are based on their interpretations of Islamic teachings and jurisprudence.

[@DeeniBayans]

We often miss the point that Fiqh or Islamic ruling always have a range. This is how human is. If we all test our blood, we see the normal range and healthy is to be within. Our sight, and hearing, all are in range. Nothing is static. So saying one openion alone is right and available is like having learned a book, but has not learned man. Islam is for man to practice not for books. So try to be a better Muslim day by day and follow whats best based on one's faith and confidences. Sametime leave the rest of the people also a space as all are not the same in knowledge, faith etc. . Though there is no uniform in this, the purpose of Hijab never changes with time.

prevention in Islam is better, if a woman can refrain from showing off her beauty for the sake of Allah, then it can prevent the man from looking at her beauty and prevent any sexual thought coming into the head of a man. because it is hard to guard against the evil thought and the waswas of shaitan when seeing a beautiful woman for a man, there are many pretty religious man in history who fall for the fitna of woman, even the Prophet PBUH said that “I have not left a trial after me more harmful to men than women.” so its best for women to cover her face as it is also a source of beauty.

[@Younameit9797]

[@amalali504]

The Hijab is a mercy to the believing women and may Allah (SWT) reward the sisters who were the Niqab for their efforts. Islam is about moderation.

[@s0bad]

I'm thinking Allah made this an issue of dispute for people because it is something that may not be broadly dispensable because every person is different and stages is beauty as well as levels are different. For instance, old women are excluded from having to wear a covering at all as long as they are not extravagant in their clothing. Why is this? Because due to age their beauty is lessened. Similarly it could be the case that the question of niqab vs hijab is one based in practicality and logical reasoning of the individual. If the woman knows she has beauty that attracts a lot of attention then perhaps a niqab is best suited. If the attention is less in others then maybe hijab is suitable. We are not all given the same levels of beauty as people, these are our individual trials so it makes sense that the choice of the matter is left with the individual and their level of piety. As opposed to a fixed absolute ruling. Allah knows best.

Opinion of most scholars is that niqab is not fardh, that khimar and jilbaab is fardh. That the hands and face are not awrah according to most scholars. The wives of the prophet s.a.w have different rules in the sharia to other women. There are so many narrations of female sahabah who did not cover their faces. And those who follow different opinions need to except there are other valid different opinions

Tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to draw their cloaks (veils) all over their bodies.” [al-Ahzab 33:59], he covered his face, leaving only one eye showing. This indicates that what was meant by the verse was covering the face. This was the interpretation of Ibn 'Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) of this verse, as narrated from him by ‘Ubaydah al-Salmani when he asked him about it.

[@arizfatima3716]

😊Hijab is not a piece of cloth on your head by Asma Bint Shameem Hijab is not a piece of cloth on your head. It’s a way of life. Just because some of the sisters have their head covered, they think that the requirement of Hijaab is fulfilled. They don’t realize that wearing a Hijaab requires much more than just covering your head. Actually, if you think about it, Hijaab is the way you talk…..the way you walk….the very way you carry yourself. In fact, Hijaab is an attitude in itself. Its a whole way of life. Allaah says: “And say to the believing women to lower their gazes, and to guard their private parts, and not to display their beauty (zeenah) except what is apparent of it, and to extend their headcoverings (khimars) to cover their bosoms (jaybs), and not to display their beauty except to their husbands, or their fathers, or their husband’s fathers, or their sons, or their husband’s sons, or their brothers, or their brothers’ sons, or their sisters’ sons, or their womenfolk, or what their right hands rule (slaves), or the followers from the men who do not feel sexual desire, or the small children to whom the nakedness of women is not apparent, and not to strike their feet (on the ground) so as to make known what they hide of their adornments. And turn in repentance to Allah together, O you believers, in order that you are successful.” (Surat-un-Nur: 31). Here are some of the more common issues in light of this verse about the Hijaab. Well, my head is covered. What more do you want? If you look carefully at the ayah, it clearly states that the head covers (khumur) should be drawn over the neck slits (juyoob). Khumur is the plural of the Arabic word “khimar” which means a headcover. Juyoob is the plural of the Arabic word “jaiyb”, which refers to the neck slit (of the dress). Yet, some sisters just cover their head with something, and think they are fulfilling the rights of Hijaab, although part of their hair or body is showing, or their whole neck and chest area are exposed. Actually, that was the way of the women of Jahilliyah. Al-Qurtubi said: “Women in those days used to cover their heads with the khimar, throwing its ends upon their backs. This left the neck and the upper part of the chest bare, along with the ears. Then Allah commanded them to cover those parts with the khimar.” So secure the scarf well around your face, covering your neck/chest area, and keep those half sleeves and capri pants for your Mahrams Sorry.…tight jeans and short shirt just don’t cut it You can’t wear tight jeans and a short shirt with a piece of cloth on your head and think this is Hijaab. Nor can you wear anything else that is tight, describing the shape of the body in any way, even if it is long. The Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam) said: “In later (generations) of my ummah there will be women who will be dressed but naked. On top of their heads (what looks) like camel humps. They will not enter into paradise or (even) get a smell of it.” (Muslim) If it is see-through, its NOT Hijaab You CANNOT use chiffon or other see through material to cover your hair and body. Everything should be covered and the color of the skin underneath should not be visible. The Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam) once received a thick garment as a gift. He gave it to Osamah b. Zayd, who in turn gave it to his wife. When asked by the Prophet why he did not wear it, Osamah indicated that he gave it to his wife. The Prophet then said to Osamah “ask her to use a “gholalah” under it (the garment) for I fear that it (the garment) may describe the size of her bones.” (Ahmad, Abi-Dawood) (The word gholalah in Arabic means a thick fabric worn under the dress to prevent it from describing the shape of the body). The Hijaab shouldn’t attract attention The dress should not be such that it attracts men’s attention to the woman’s beauty. Allaah clearly states “not to display their beauty (zeenah).” Yet, Subhaan Allaah, some Hijaabi sisters are dressed in such a way that they attract more attention to themselves than they would if they didn’t wear Hijaab!! How could such zeenah be concealed if the dress is designed in a way that it attracts men’s eyes to the woman? It beats the purpose of Hijaab. Allaah tells us: “And stay in your houses, and do not display yourselves like that of the times of ignorance…” [al-Ahzaab:32] What about make-up and perfume??? Wearing make up is also part of the zeenah that Allaah orders us NOT to display. So if your head and body are appropriately covered yet you are wearing bright red lipstick or dark eyeliner such that people confuse between you and a raccoon….uh sorry, that’s not Hijaab. And keep those nice fragrances for the home, between you and your husband. That’s part of Hijaab too, even if you are going to the Masjid. The Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam) said: “Any woman who puts on perfume and passes by people so that they can smell her fragrance, is an adulteress.” (al-Nasaa’i, Tirmidhi: hasan by Albaani) Tinkling Jewelry and Jingling bracelets ‘Loud’ and tinkling anything, be it jewelry, bracelets, clip-clopping shoes, little bells on clothes, you name it, if it jingles or makes noise, it is against the principles of Hijaab, because it attracts attention to the one wearing it. That is what is meant when Allaah orders us in the above verse…“not to strike their feet (on the ground) so as to make known what they hide of their adornments.” No laughing, joking, or hanging out with non-Mahrams Some sisters assume that since they are properly covered, its okay for them to sit around and talk, laugh, joke, etc. with the men, but that’s not right, even if he is ‘the Shaikh’. Allaah says:”. . . then be not soft in speech, lest he in whose heart is a disease should be moved with desire, but speak in an honorable manner.” [al-Ahzaab:32] So talk to them when there is a specific need, and in a manner that is not necessarily rude, yet it is polite but firm. Staring at the brothers or ‘checking them out’ is NOT Hijaab Allaah orders us to “lower your gaze” in the above verse. Why? Because a single ‘look’ can say more than a thousand words. So, even if you are properly covered, keep those eyes down, conduct yourself with ‘Hayaa’, and avoid ‘fitnah’. ‘Chatting’ on the internet/phone is not part of Hijaab, either There is no such thing as “we’re just friends”. Talking to non-Mahrams is wrong even if it is through the internet or telephone. There are too many stories of illegal relationships, fornications, broken homes, extra-marital affairs and runaway brides to even mention. That is why in Islam anything that leads to haraam is also haraam. Allaah says: “Do not (even) come close to fornication, for it is an indecency, and its way is evil.” (Surah Israa:32) Be careful, even in the way you walk Remember, you are not a runway model displaying the latest fashion. Walk with modesty and hayaa and you will be respected. The Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam) said: “There are two types of the people of Hell that I have not seen yet….women who are clothed yet naked, walking with an enticing gait…..” (Muslim). Don’t shake hands with non-Mahrams. Its part of Hijaab It is not permissible to shake hands with a non-Mahram, because the Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam) said: “For one of you to be stabbed in the head with an iron needle is better for him than to touch a woman who is not permissible for him.” (at-Tabaraani saheeh by al-Albaani). And no, it is not rude to refuse to shake hands with non-Muslims. Simply politely explain that its part of your religion and they are very understanding. Stay away from the men’s areas I see many sisters entering the Masjid from the men’s entrance, or standing idle in the hallways or where there is a chance of unnecessary mixing with the brothers. What for? Don’t we have a separate entrance for ourselves? Why do you think Allaah ordained the Hijaab in the first place? To avoid fitnah, by reducing temptation and separating the genders. “The Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam) said to the women on his way out of the mosque when he saw men and women mixing together on their way home: ‘Give way (i.e., walk to the sides) as it is not appropriate for you to walk in the middle the road.’ Thereafter, women would walk so close to the wall that their dresses would get caught on it.” (Abu Dawood) Hijaab is also to conceal your sister Although some sisters wear the Hijaab themselves, they forget that they cannot talk about another sister and her beauty in front of their own husbands, brothers, etc. Remember, part of your Hijaab is to cover your sisters ‘awrah’ as well. The Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam) said: “No woman should mix with a woman and describe her to her husband so that it is as if he can see her.” (Muslim) May Allah guide us and bless us with the TRUE understanding of His Deen.

The covering of women is not just for the protection from men rather it is for women to control their urge of getting all attention and appreciation from opposite gender as in the Quran .Allah told women to lower their gazed and to not display their beauty as the challenge for women and men is different. The women's attraction towards men is very small than men's attraction towards women and for women the bigger challenge is controlling her own desires of displaying her beauty and for men , it is the women .

Salafis be like: cover your face, cover your body, cover your palm and feet and your eyes and cover the fact that you exist.🤣🤣 Bruh majority of us Muslims learnt from the Qur'an and the widely accepted prophetic tradition that the face is NOT part of awrah and therefore need not be covered. There are many scarf-wearing Saudi-oil fed Wahabi and Salafi so called Sheikhs who will tell you many things that boils down to this: "as a woman you are allowed to breathe and breed. Now serve the men and be happy." Sorry my dear, we women have been given brains too, we read and think and learn. Allah is just as much our Lord as Allah is yours. Then why do you think Allah will deliberately reduce women's quality of life and make it so difficult that they can not function at all in society? The first "sheikh" here, I 've seen him in one of yt shorts saying that his wife covers herself from women too. As in, she does not remove her face covering in front of other women to be able to eat at a family gathering etc. This is ridiculous. I mean cover all you like (or may be don't) but don't claim it to be Islam unless it is firmly rooted in Qur'an and solid hadith (that does it oppose the Qur'an). Also NAK did a great explanation, it helped me a lot. Thanks.

May Allah make it easy for you my lovely sister, look the thing is, your family won't be always totally happy with your decisions, and it is something good to be obedient to your family, but the obedience towards Allah must be above everything. I can tell you about my experience, my Dad wasn't at the beginning totally happy, because we live in a nonmuslim country and he feared hate for me, but I was totally sure about it, even if me too in the beginning maybe not, so the first days were difficult because of doubts, but I stuck in, know SubanAllah I won't be without anymore. My father also accepted me with it. Allah azza wa jal is the changer of the hearts, you can have absolutely trust in him. He never made it difficult for me, not once Alhamdullilah, quite the opposite, everything went beautifully since that. It is the best decision I made. Do you know what the best part in obedience towards Allah is? He alone make everything easy if you trust in him, it isn't because of me, because of Him, He gave me strength, even people become nicer to me than before, but if they wouldn't have, I wouldn't really care either, we are here to please Allah not the people. Allahs promises are true, Shaitan and even people may deseive you. Allah is always truthful to all his promises, so if you trust in him, he will change everything around you. This world is nothing but a test, so are the people around us. I pray that Allah make it possible for you to wear it for his sake, and give you all the best in Dunya and Akhira, Ameen.

This is why I think Allah made this an issue of dispute for people because it is something that may not be broadly dispensable because every person is different and stages is beauty as well as levels are different. For instance, old women are excluded from having to wear a covering at all as long as they are not extravagant in their clothing. Why is this? Because due to age their beauty is lessened. Similarly it could be the case that the question of niqab vs hijab is one based in practicality and logical reasoning of the individual. If the woman knows she has beauty that attracts a lot of attention then perhaps a niqab is best suited. If the attention is less in others then maybe hijab is suitable. We are not all given the same levels of beauty as people, these are our individual trials so it makes sense that the choice of the matter is left with the individual and their level of piety. As opposed to a fixed absolute ruling. Allah knows best.

[@mss4346]

Well if niqab is obligatory and face considered as "awra" , how come its haram to do Hadj with niqab or pray in front of Allah (the.most devine time) without covering the face. With other terms they are saying you should cover your face in normal societies.because this is not good for the society but then its okey to take it off in Mekka where also most of.the paticipants are men ???????. My opinion is also that Covering the hairs is beauty and it should.be covered but covering the face would not be obligatory otherwise how women can live in normal society ....during the prophete time women were not working and gaining their own money, they did not have to travel and go through scans machines etc.....there are other ways to conceal the beauty by covering your shape , hairs and avoiding tones of make up etc.....and stay modest without attracting any bad behaviour. Allah knows best and may allah guide us to his right path

[@shadowstorm5261]

"how come its haram to do Hadj with niqab" - you still are required to cover the face and this is from the scholars. you cover it with a veil. niqab has an opening for the eyes and this is not allowed. the prophets wives also covered their faces while doing hajj when non mahram men were approaching. please do research before making an essay

[@shadowstorm5261]

" but covering the face would not be obligatory otherwise how women can live in normal society" - Either you wear a niqab with an opening for the eyes or a thin veil over the eyes which you can see through.

[@shadowstorm5261]

also men are more attracted to faces of women over hair. for example a bald woman but she has a seductive face without ant would catch a lot of attention. A woman with hair and an above average face with makeup would likely get less attention. the face is more important than hair. it is universally agreed by all men. I have never heard a man said that they like a woman because of her hair. the face always matters more and this causes men to become astray.

A man has his own hijab as well. It’s not only because of their gaze.hijab means modesty in general . It’s the way we carry ourselves and the way we live and dress. It redefines beauty on its own, making others focus on your character and your inner beauty ,rather than your outer beauty. People take us more seriously and show us more respect,when being modest.it’s like a protection from Allah. It keeps you from men with bad intentions and from other things like zina,etc… Although it is an obligation, Allah gave us a mind of our own so that it is still your choice not to wear it. But remember that disobedience will be punished by Allah one day if you choose not to make tawbah before returning to him.

[@rafiqtsm1451]

Slave women didn’t cover. Not even their chest in some areas was bare. They had to fight for the right to cover. Some covered and were punished for it as they were not free women. In time they allowed them to cover. Folks had right hand processions they could do with what they wanted. In time it changed. So yeah most today would say taking procession of people by force is wrong. Turning them into concubines is wrong. And stopping women from covering due to any status men place upon them is wrong. Even though the Quran doesn’t directly say so. Same thing in reverse. Forcing women to do anything they’re not ready to do is wrong. All we have to do is worry about our own personal practice and treat everyone with kindness and respect as long as they do the same.

Depending on your school of Fiqh, Islamic jurisprudence! it varies! Many of the Early Scholars don't consider the face to consetuate Awrah. the Quran doesn't mention the face as part of the 'awrah' at all. The concept of 'awrah' has been elaborated upon and interpreted by scholars over time, the face is not awrah According to Imam Abu Hanifa, the founder of the Hanafi school of jurisprudence, wearing the hijab, which covers the hair and body, is considered obligatory for women. However, he did not deem the niqab, which covers the face, as obligatory. Imam Abu Hanifa's stance was based on his interpretation of Islamic texts and principles, which emphasized modesty while allowing some flexibility in women's dress code. Imam Abu Hanifa's opinions were derived from his interpretation of Islamic teachings, including the Quran and the Hadith. While there isn't a specific verse in the Quran where Imam Abu Hanifa explicitly mentions his stance on the obligation of hijab and the niqab, his jurisprudential rulings were based on his understanding of various Quranic verses and hadiths related to modesty and dress code. One verse often cited in discussions of modesty is Surah An-Nur (24:31), where Allah instructs believing women to lower their gaze and guard their modesty, and not to display their adornments except what is apparent (such as the face and hands). Interpretations of this verse may vary among scholars and schools of thought. Imam Abu Hanifa's legal rulings and interpretations were documented in his works and were passed down through generations of scholars within the Hanafi school. His opinions on the obligation of hijab and niqab are based on his scholarly understanding of Islamic sources and principles. Imam Malik ibn Anas, the founder of the Maliki school of jurisprudence, is renowned for his contributions to Islamic law. While he emphasized the importance of modesty and decency in dress, his stance was not that of it being an obligation of niqab (face veil) Scholars argue that Imam Malik's position was that hijab (covering the hair and body) is obligatory for women, but he did not require the covering of the face with a niqab. They base this interpretation on his writings and the practices prevalent in his time and region. Ibn Hazm: An Andalusian Muslim scholar from the 10th century known for his contributions to various fields of Islamic knowledge. He held the view that covering the face (niqab) is not obligatory, but rather, covering the hair and body (hijab) is sufficient for women's modesty. Ibn Taymiyyah: A prominent medieval Islamic theologian and jurist known for his strict adherence to the Quran and Sunnah.

This indicates that what was meant by the verse was covering the face. This was the interpretation of Ibn 'Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) of this verse, as narrated from him by ‘Ubaydah al-Salmani when he asked him about it. Evidence for niqab from the Sunnah In the Sunnah, there are many ahadith, such as: the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “The woman in ihram is forbidden to veil her face (wear Niqab) or to wear the burqa’.” This indicates that when women were not in ihram, women used to cover their faces.

@@Ward..339 that's quite ignorant. Majority here, refers to majority of scholars. Scholars that know the quran and hadith MUCH better than the average person. You choosing "quran and hadith" above the opinions of scholars regarding the quran and sunnah is basically saying you live by your own flawed interpretation of the quran and hadith, all the while scholars have the closest most accurate answers for the contents of the quran and hadith.

The man should not look at the woman's face in the 1st place and should not always fall on the woman to cover their face , in that case the man should cover his face too - I've worn the hijab, loose respectable clothing from a young age in a non-Islamic country and have never in all my decades had anyone make a rude comment about my scarf. First and foremost a Muslim has to have respect for herself, her faith and her almighty creator. Alhamdolilah wa shokr lilah everything is a blessing from Him, the good things to be grateful for and the bad, to learn from and improve one's faith

But women are also attracted to men's arms, muscles, beard, jawline, eyes or face but he doesn't need to cover.. so becoming completely invisib is not the only solution. We all need to purify our minds respect the opposite gender and lower our gaze. It might be true that men are more sexually attracted so women need to do more pardah but I'm not sure abut covering the face.

[@sohana2473]

[@tahu6175]

True. Women do get attracted towards men. So the ayah revealed first and foremost states " Command the believing women to lower their gaze..... " And then mentions the hijab. Moreover, even if the woman is attracted, she cannot harass the man, but only seduce him ( that too when the man allows her to do so) .

[@mizgenius3363]

No, women don’t need to cover up more, the men just need to stop acting as if they are above Allah’s law and do better at lowering their gaze. Both genders are commanded to lower their gaze and cover their private parts.

[@user-mx5hp1vg2v]

Zakir Nike I agree with you

[@freaky425]

Allah has completed our religion and orders what's best for us, All compulsory/Must stuff Prophet (SAW) himself made it clear. Reading through ahadith it's apparent if an action is bound to cause a Muslim be sinful, prophet (SAW) strictly warned us. Nobody worried more for his ummah than our beloved Prophet (SAW). He left some part as moderate recommendation, Some scholar make them compulsory because they are strict and they fear Allah and don't want to risk anything. Some scholar take a bit easier approach and believe Allah is the most merciful and the most compassionate forgiver. As for covering face, If it was a must, it would have been specified with one direct hadith at least. Several hadiths mentioned women recognized through their faces, if face covering was essential, Our beloved prophet would not stay silent seeing any woman without covering their face. He would have mentioned once if not commanded directly. This shouldn't be matter of dispute rather, the period now is so terrible. So if a Muslim woman covers their face to please Allah and follow modesty, It will only bring goodness. Since Muslims women now don't just stay at home only, covering would probably benefit them the most and some cases it could be Must. But I do agree with Sheikh Albani has the wisest opinion on this and he's a pious and wise slave of Allah. and Allah knows the best.

[@tahirasaeedmemon3106]

covering face is fardh?

[@freaky425]

@@tahirasaeedmemon3106 there is a dispute about it since some hadith indicated that woman had faced prophet without covering face. some big scholars say covering it is not fardh, and some say covering also fardh. and some say whenever it is a chance of fitnah or safety, in those place covering the face becomes fardh. so sister, It's up to you and the place/condition you are in. but It would be always best for you cover if you can.

[@nasirk3104]

Quick question for those who are arguing in favor of covering the face. If during the holiest of Islamic obligations the Haj, a woman is not required to cover her face. Why would she be required to cover her face when she’s going to the market?

brother don't open the door for the shaitan to whisper in your head. One can question many things, for example...in a hadith Rasulallah ﷺ said purification is half of the religion, then on the other hand we are asked to purify ourselves by dirt if water is not available. You see this is our logic and our deen doesn't work according to people's logic as logic is subjective. The hadith is- Abu Malik at-Ash'ari reported: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Cleanliness is half of faith and al-Hamdu Lillah (all praise and gratitude is for Allah alone) fills the scale, and Subhan Allah (Glory be to Allah) and al-Hamdu Lillah fill up what is between the heavens and the earth, and prayer is a light, and charity is proof (of one's faith) and endurance is a brightness and the Holy Qur'an is a proof on your behalf or against you. All men go out early in the morning and sell themselves, thereby setting themselves free or destroying themselves. (sahih muslim 223)

Question: if hijab and niqab is mandatory, then at the time of prophet and sahabi, did all muslim women at that time (both free women and slave women) wear hijab or niqab?

[@gondala]

@bleh boop my point is, if niqab or hijab was mandatory to women then there would be no different for muslim women whether she was a slave woman or free woman. but actually, we hear different story that slave women should not wear the same clothes with free women.

[@khudaija3916]

All Muslim women at the time of Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ والہ وسلم wore a hijab and a niqib . They covered themselves with a jilbab ( which is basically a really big shawl) . They were covered from head to toe . They slave women did not wore the hijab because they were not muslim . This hukam was implemented to differentiate the Free Muslim women from the slaves. Muslim women were not slaves .

[@gondala]

@@khudaija3916 do you know how illogical of your comment is? Well,.. according to Quran 24:31, it is clear from the ayah that they (the women) who already wear niqab or hijab or headcover or veils to cover their chest or bosoms. So the ayah is not talking about someone who doesn't wear hijab then they were told to wear hijab. Secondly, regarding the a slave muslim woman who wore niqab, are you joking? they were slave, right? and did they have money or belonging or property to buy clothes to cover their whole body? Furthermore, if they were slave, they can be sold to or bought from their masters. Then, how people would bought them if they cover their body? obviously, they should not cover their whole body in order to see their physical body (before people would like to buy slave).

Clothing is covering the body. If you force someone to cover themselves its oppression but if you force someone not to cover themselves that's also called oppression. Regardless, we should see wisdom in every verse of Holy Qur'an and sunnah of prophet MUHAMMAD SAW. So if anyone asks you why you follow certain conditions in Islam, you would be able to answer them. If you notice these rules and regulations of Islam, you will find them simple and easy. And it gives you tranquility and protection. You will feel that if these rules should be followed everywhere as it promotes a man's well being and opens the way to Jannah.
