HIJAB
I have met some Muslims who love Islam except they don't accept sallah, I have met some Muslims except they don't accept that hijab is obligatory. "Islam is in the heart" they claim. You must understand, we must all accept every command from Allah SWT. It is Allah who commanded us to pray, to fast, to wear hijab, and it is HE Allah SWT that knows best what is the state of our hearts. If Islam is truly in your heart as you claim, then your actions should follow suit. Do not use quotes such as "only Allah can judge" or "Islam is in the heart" to escape what Allah has commanded. Our outward actions are reflective of what is in our hearts. Let's take lessons from the story of Ibrahim when he was ordered to leave his family, or to jump into the fire, or to place a KNIFE to his SONS neck!! He didn't question any command by Allah, but people today question and even to the extent deny things like hijab salah and other obligations. Islam is more than just a religion, it is a complete way of life we must love and accept to it's full capacity
The Meaning of Hair Covering
What does Islamic dress for women exactly entail?
Islam has no fixed uniform of dress for Muslim women. But there are two requirements, which come from the Qur’an and
hadith
(verified sayings of the Prophet Muhammad): First, a woman’s body should be covered such that only her face, hands, and feet are revealed. Secondly, the clothing must be loose enough so that the shape of a woman’s body is not visible.
Other parameters (as stated in hadiths) are that women shouldn’t dress so as to look like men, women shouldn’t dress in a way similar to those who don’t believe in God, and the clothing should be modest, neither ragged nor overly fancy.
It is important to remember that Islam teaches Muslims that the concept of modest dress doesn’t just mean covering the body, but it also has to do with behaviors, manners, speech, and public appearance. Modesty is a total package, with dress being one part of it.
