That is not Islam's fault. That's just culture. Men forcing their daughters to wear hijaab when she doesn't want to is a sin and he'll be dealt accordingly as per Allah's wish. In Islam, wearing hijaab cannot be forced upon. Forcing is strictly not allowed. Islam gives guidance and delivers messages. It's upto the person if he wants to follow it or not but not following will come with consequences as every action has a consequence. Now in Islam, it's compulsory to wear hijaab but again it can't be forced upon. It will only count if the person does it out of his own will.

You didn’t answer the question what’s the male equivalent of the hijab

[@sallylemon5835]

Men and women both must abstain in eyesight and private parts from adultery. But as both genders are biologically, physically and psychologically designed differently in hormonal types, levels and visual roles, this was what made it much harder for men to abstain in their eyes and private parts than for a woman to do so. So women have it easier at this part but 'harder' on the outlook, whereas men have it easier on the outlook but much harder on what we do not see on the outer. The biggest opponent and challenge is always what's inside us. In the sins of adultery, men hold bigger accountability than women, because it's always men who start first and because as men are given with more mobility and efficiency, it comes with the responsibility to protect women in the society, not to ruin them.

[@swathi123vm]

​@@sallylemon5835 Just curious (putting relegion/race/culte aside), doesn't your theory (men are more sexual libido than women purely due to Testosterone) hold true for other religions? So in general irrespective of any culture/race/religion, women should cover their hair at all times? Can you cite some biology research papers/journals to back up your theory (I would love to read more about it, my gynic said a different story)? Covering up as you said would guarantee to ward off evil eyes 100%? Should it be not more about comfort and choice? I don't mind people choosing to wear and practice what they like. It ticks me off when someone "gifts" me something (a cloth, jewelry, or anything) and expects me to accept it with a smile. Would saying "no thank you" be offensive?

[@awimosbizzle]

Look at my above comments. Hijab was culture back then for women to cover hair but it’s not something different to men. Ibn kathir says because of that it was cultural then: he would hesitate to say it’s a sin but it’s recommended (to wear headscarf) Ibn ashour believes a woman can show hair and even arms These are not modern scholars they are real scholars in Islamic jurisprudence who read and affiliate with people who analyze Hadith, and are with madhabs.

You could have answered them straight on or simply said “NO” than victimising yourself or falsely accusing someone else! smh 🤦‍♀️ Either way, you you wanna cry and whine, good luck! I will keep questioning practices that I feel are oppressive specifically when they put down abuse against a minority and reason it on “modesty” irrespective of religion or culture. If someone or something is taking away my right to fight against an abuse, I would not sit and ask for a an unknown energy to help me. God helps those who helps themselves. Questioning something is not disrespectful. Again, I repeat, I do not mind what the “preachers” of any religion propagate, but when they blame them victims and say that’s god’s destiny, (you did not dress a certain way, that’s why you were raped, or got divorced) it makes no sense to me. Also, men and women are biologically different, so are many other animal species(dogs/bitches; tom/queen), so what your point? The culture I follow says religion or practices are man made! You can have a totally different opinion. Opinions do not make up facts, proofs do. And I will still keep questioning- If they were really made by some god, would they not be dated at big-bang? Why did apes not follow the dress code, or even cave men? You believe in evolution and the fact that humans did evolve from apes, right? I m equally glad that these comments are public. maybe some psychiatrists can help those women who actually think it’s their fault when they get abuses.

Why can't you admit there's misogyny in your religion? Saying Islam or an Islamic practice is misogynistic doesn't mean everything within the religion is bad. Religion is created and practiced by humans so of course there's going to be parts that are questionable or bad, especially in such an old religion. Surely you don't think society had everything figured out 1400 years ago? If you "follow the Quran and Sunnah to a t" you _won't_ end up treating everyone equally. There are misogynist passages in there and you're right to ignore them but you can't deny their existence. An no, it's not a matter of interpretation; Surah 4:11 and 12 dictate that a female should inherit half of what a male does, even though they have the same relationship to the deceased. Yes, there's a historical context for this but it's clearly a product of misogyny. I'm a Christian myself and while I believe the Bible is the word of God I think it's extremely important to remember that God isn't the one who wrote the words down, humans did; humans who lived in a very different time. Recognizing their flaws and criticizing what they wrote isn't the same thing as saying the Bible is wrong or that all of Christianity has those flaws and I think the same goes for any religion. You're doing yourself and your community a disservice by ignoring things like misogyny because denying it exists keeps you from ever improving.

[@tuwuesday]

it seems so silly to me that anyone's natural state is considered immodest, especially considering that the texts from the big three religions (judaism, christianity, islam) all claim that their god created humans in his image. when you really think about the origins of these three religions, it's clear that the rules about modesty are less about some deity wanting us to be prudes, and more about people living in a desert region and needing to protect themselves from the elements. since it was a good idea for safety, it was added as law, just like "don't unalive others" was added.

[@lilac_turnip4767]

So using your logic, do you think it's okay for people to walk around naked. Since that is their "natural state"?

[@tuwuesday]

@@lilac_turnip4767 yes, we should all be walking around naked. i know it's not socially acceptable to be nude in most places, but we're all born naked. clothes can help shield us from the elements, which is probably the main/only reason humans started wearing them in the first place, and it should be the only reason we ever need to wear clothes. but religions pervert the idea about the natural state of our bodies into being this unclean, purely sexual, sinful thing that must be hidden away, and with the massive influence religions have on societies, being naked anywhere but in one's own home is seen as taboo in most places, even among non-religious people.

[@Milkythefawn]

@@lilac_turnip4767 Modesty contributes to sexualization, because it’s treating the body like a super-sexual thing that needs to be covered. For example: upper leg used to be considered very sexual. That’s because the upper leg was covered. Nowadays, nobody bats an eye in most places if you’re wearing mid-thigh shorts.

[@tuwuesday]

@Vongola Atzi how am i hypocritical or "forcing my views" onto anyone? the human body isn't inherently moral or immoral, it's amoral. religion has forced its backwards views of human life (including the human body) into both our past and modern cultures over centuries of brainwashing, torture, threat of death, actual death, hindering progression (scientific, mathematic, artistic, social, etc), social conditioning, religions holding political power in our laws through the people who don't respect people's right to religious freedom (in the US and likely many other countries with heavily religious cultures). islam is not beautiful, no matter how many people believe it's true, because no religion is true or beautiful imo. but of course you can feel however you want to about it, just don't pretend to have all the answers when your religion and its followers consistently deny reality and push falsehoods to promote a deity that likely isn't real and values that are harmful to society.

[@tuwuesday]

@Vongola Atzi stop having love for allah. your feelings don't make your deity true or fake, no matter how strongly you believe. that's your logic turned back on you. it's sound logic i suppose, but it's a silly argument that makes your entire worldview seem laughable. you're arguement is "just ignore your feelings, even though i use my feelings and only my feelings to justify believing in something with no evidence." vs beel saying "this is my opinion/theory about one specific topic"

[@hiparifu6889]

Seeing how this got popular, the woman in this video didn't seem to clarify a lot of things which made a lot of yall non Muslims jump to conclusions. 1. Men do indeed have a hijab to wear. Hijab is not the garment which women wear on their heads. It is merely a piece of cloth which we call a scarf. It is just commonly called the hijab. The actual definition of hijab in Arabic is "barrier" or "partition". When a woman wears a scarf on her head, she creates a barrier of modesty so that others do not see her hair and bosom. The hijab which men must "wear" is not commonly seen through the naked eyes of others, as they must guard their own vision (eg, they must lower their gaze; such is the beauty of a woman, that they aren't deserving of looking at them unless it is their own wife or female relatives). Side note, the fact that women have to cover up more does not mean that their efforts are in vain; in fact, the reward which they receive for going through with the act of worship and choosing to stay modest is so high that it is beyond comprehension. We just have more patience than all of yall combined lol (incoming, "what if it's not real??" arguments) 2. These so called "Islamic" countries are a joke. I'm telling you rn, if you take any of their bullshit of an excuse for following the quran, it's a complete lie. They're an embarrassment. Also, if you're gonna be all high and mighty and cry about the misogyny these countries practice, please support non profit organisations in giving these fortunate women alongside their families who had been able to flee from their dictatorship and provide them a home and safe place to stay. It's the least you could do when we're all in this together. 3. It isn't stated directly anywhere, but evidence gathered from the *reliable* hadeeths and several verses from the quran suggest that God created women to be on a status unequal to men; in the sense that their position is in fact much higher than a man's (hah, did I get ya there?) One such example is the reliability a man's existence has on women. When a girl is born, it opens the gates of paradise for her parents. A man is reliant on his wife in the sense that she alone makes up half of HIS faith, meaning that whatever she does, either puts him in a good or bad spot. He only has half of his faith to himself. Paradise is at the feet of a mother. The feet is usually associated with disrespect in various cultures, but the fact that paradise itself rests by her feet shows the utmost respect she is given for bearing children, and raising them. She *is* paradise. Also it is compulsory that a child loves their mother 3 times more than the father (unless ofc, various unavoidable issues and situations occur that this cannot be followed through with). 4. Going back to point one, as I said, the beauty of a woman is so highly regarded that she is encouraged to remain modest because strangers just arent deserving of seeing her beauty. It's a reason why women pray behind men in congregational prayers. Anymore questions to ask, feel free to pop in to your local mosque, the sheikhs there will welcome visitors, Muslim or non Muslim with open arms and answer any questions within their knowledge capacities to help you :) I say this because me just telling you from across a screen wouldn't do much would it.

@@constancesmoothpiee1286 While there are some practical reasons like to two you mentioned, at the end of the day it is a control tactic disguised as worship. The society that the practice of hijab was born out of was (and still is) highly patriarchal. When trying to find the roots of these practices one must not simply read the Quran and take it at face value, but also understand the society which created these texts. Women were, and still are in many places, seen as a man's property. One must also understand how these religious and societal pressures affect a person's mental well-being. When a high control society meets a high control religion, even the smallest thing like a woman's hair can be used to oppress a group of people. The men who wrote these texts felt aroused by the women around them, and so instead of working on their own impulse control, they used the opportunity to shame and control the women they desired. It was easier for them to blame the woman than take responsibility. It also gave them another tool to retain their "supiority" over women. I don't know if that made sense to you. There are dozens of books and papers out there detailing the roots and reasons behind these practices. Trying to fit all the nuance and history into a single KZbin comment is unreasonable, so here's my shitty synopsis.
