Hijab: Why Do Muslim Women Hide Faces From Men? by truthman2012(m): 7:02pm On Dec 03, 2015 |
Why do muslim women cover their faces from head to toe? If it is to prevent men from getting attracted to them, how were they comfort of Muhammad's eyes? It shows that despite the covering, they were still attracted to him. It means the covering didn't curb Muhammad's lust and by extension, all muslims' lust against them. Then, why the covering? The Prophet [ Sallallahu wa alaihi wassalam] said :"Three things from your world have been made beloved to me: Women, perfume, and prayer THE COMFORT OF MY EYES'' [Source: Ahamd Ibn Hanbal, 3:128 ] Covering or no covering, allahh said a muslim must commit a number of adultery he has fixed for him: Abu Aahuraira reported Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) as saying: Verily Allah HAS FIXED THE VERY PORTION OF ADULTERY, which a man will indulge in and which he OF NECESSITY MUST COMMIT. The adultery of the eye is the lustful look and the adultery of the tongue is the licentious speech, the heart desire and yearns, which the parts may or may not put into effect (Sahih Muslim, Book 033, Number 6421 & 6422) Do muslim women need to hide their faces from their men? |

Sahih Bukhari also confirm the above hadith: Narrated Ibn 'Abbas: I did not see anything so resembling minor sins as what Abu Huraira said from the Prophet, who said, " Allah has written for the son of Adam his INEVITABLE SHARE OF ADULTERY WHETHER HE IS AWARE OF IT OR NOT: The adultery of the eye is the looking (at something which is sinful to look at) , and the adultery of the tongue is to utter (what it is unlawful to utter), and the innerself wishes and longs for (adultery) and the private parts turn that into reality or refrain from submitting to the temptation." (Sahih Al- Bukhari, Volume 8, Book 77, Number 609) |

Its more of a ritual than anything else. Its like asking why we lift our hands when we sing worship songs. Raising our antenna's closer to heaven? |

Many questions muslims cannot answer on islam. It shows they are in islam due to ignorance. Come out of among them and be ye separate saith the Lord (2 Cor. 6:17). 1 Like |

It's a culture of people that live in dusty desert areas around north Africa, Arabia, Persia, Mesopotamia, Indus valley etc. Wearing of long robes, turbans, and scarf was to protect the body, hair and face against dust and other extreme weather conditions. Over the centuries as total covering became a way of life for these people it had a psychological effect on their mind (mostly the sexually active men). Not been able to see the full voluptuous body of any fully grown woman (except that of spouses) led to heightened sexual. Fantasies and imaginations which led further to uncontrollable sexual temptation. Compare to areas where people considered as primitive walk about unclad (especially ancient inland Africa). The body of a woman is not a very big deal and hence such deep fantasies and temptations are unnecessary. |

bashbabe2: Lady terrorist ! Are you really silent by saying that? Am I the fool or Sahih Muslim and Sahih Bukhari that I quoted? Is your abuse the refutation of the OP? Are you actually proving right what Muhammad said that muslim women are less intelligent? When are muslims going to be delivered from islamic falsehood? Why did you people believe Muhammad, a man that is worse that most of you muslims in character and integrity? Why did you turn blind eyes to his many wicked and sinful acts? Why do muslim women love allahh's punishing them by making them to live in obscurity inside black garment? May God deliver you all in Jesus name. 2 Likes |

Why do muslim women veil themselves? It wasnt even Allah or Mohammed's idea. It was Umar bin Al-Khattab's idea amongst other things and Allah and Mohammed agreed with him. Sahih al-Bukhari Book 8 Hadith 395 The funny thing is that, we've hashed all these topics before and the same questions continue to be asked and muslims cannot give answers. If Allah can agree to Umar's suggestion (according to this hadith on 3 different occasions), it looks to me he's not all knowing and wise 1 Like |

proo212: Bro., did you notice a clause of the hadith you cited? It says and I quote ''And as regards the (verse of) the veiling of the women, I said, 'O Allah's Apostle! I wish you ordered your wives to COVER THEMSELVES FROM THE MEN because good and bad ones talk to them.' So the verse of the veiling of the women was revealed. The veiling was to prevent the men from talking to Muhammad's wives, which was approved by allahh. Muslims looked for a strategy to protect their women from other men, yet it is failing as Muhammad said no muslims could avoid the lust of the eyes as stated in the earlier hadiths I cited. They still have lust for them in spite of the veil. What need is there for the veil? |

Muslim women dress closely to the way Mary mother of Jesus dresss when she walked. This is lacking in the so called dicieveples of Christ. |

vedaxcool: Lie ! Why must you lie? Mary never wore black masquirade cloth or left space for only the eyeballs. Couldn't you see why muslims do it in above hadith? It is to hide their faces from men and it started only at the time of Muhammad. Mary had lived and died long before Muhammad. |

[color=#770077][/color] You all seem to be confused on what the hijab actually is. The hijab only covers the hair and neck. The niqab is the one that covers face too. In those times, the only way a woman could be considered modest was to cover her hair, and possibly face too, it was a cultural thing. Obviously, things have changed now and women can still look very modest even with their hair visible. In my opinion, both are a cultural garments that have creeped into religion. 1 Like |
