    The word "hijab" comes from the Arabic word "hajaba" meaning to hide from view or conceal. In the present time, the context of hijab is the modest covering of a Muslim woman. The question now is what is the extent of the covering? The Qur'an says:

     

     

    "Say to the believing man 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..." (Qur'an 24:30-31)

    These verses from the Qur'an contain two main injunctions:

     

    A woman should not show her beauty or adornments except what appears by uncontrolled factors such as the wind blowing her clothes, and

    the head covers should be drawn so as to cover the hair, the neck and the bosom.

    Islam has no fixed standard as to the style of dress or type of clothing that Muslims must wear. However, some requirements must be met. The first of these requirements is the parts of the body which must be covered. Islam has two sources for guidance and rulings: first, the Qur'an, the revealed word of Allah and secondly, the Hadith or the traditions of the Prophet Muhammad (S) who was chosen by Allah to be the role model for mankind. The following is a Tradition of the Prophet:

    "Ayesha ® reported that Asmaa the daughter of Abu Bakr ® came to the Messenger of Allah (S) while wearing thin clothing. He approached her and said: 'O Asmaa! When a girl reaches the menstrual age, it is not proper that anything should remain exposed except this and this. He pointed to the face and hands." (Abu Dawood)

    Ya Allah make us strong against the fitnah of this Dunya and the evils

    of our own Nafs.

    Ya Allah let death be a reminder for us.

    Ya Allah save us from the death of sinners and kafirs.

    Ya Allah do not let us die in any state other than the state of Islam.

    Ya Allah do not let us be amongst those who will be lost on the Day of

    Judgement, those whose faces will be black, who will receive their

    record of deeds in their left hand, those whom You will turn away from.

    Ya Allah make us amongst those who weep over our sins out of fear of

    You, in this Dunya.

    Ya Allah help us to dissociate ourselves from this Dunya and to be of

    those who will be successful in the Akhirah,

    Ameen

    Allah gives and Forgives, Man gets and FORGETS!

    AAmiin yaa rabi!!

    thank you sagal for that reminder!

    My thoughts exactly.
