:::SHARH OF BULUGH AL-MARAAM:::
(THE HIJAB OF THE WOMAN)
MARCH 03. 2013
Book 2 Chapter 17 (Clothing) page 191
-there are many hadiths and Quranic verses that make it compulsory for a woman to wear hijab when she leaves the house
And tell the believing women to lower their gaze (from looking at forbidden things), and protect their private parts (from illegal sexual acts, etc.) and not to show off their adornment except only that which is apparent (like palms of hands or one eye or both eyes for necessity to see the way, or outer dress like veil, gloves, head-cover, apron, etc.), and to draw their veils all over Juyubihinna (i.e. their bodies, faces, necks and bosoms, etc.) and not to reveal their adornment except to their husbands, their fathers, their husband's fathers, their sons, their husband's sons, their brothers or their brother's sons, or their sister's sons, or their (Muslim) women (i.e. their sisters in Islam), or the (female) slaves whom their right hands possess, or old male servants who lack vigour, or small children who have no sense of the shame of sex. And let them not stamp their feet so as to reveal what they hide of their adornment. And all of you beg Allāh to forgive you all, O believers, that you may be successful. An-Nur 24:31)
-every Muslima should read and know this verse
-in brackets is weak hadith on one eye exposed
-the translator is not a hadith scholar
-he doesn't know that the hadith is weak
-this misguidance is not intentional
-a person who translates the Quran is not an expert in these
fields
-he is only a translator
-sometimes they make mistakes
-women can take of hijab and expose their face to their father-in-law
And as for women past childbearing who do not expect wed lock, it is no sin on them if they discard their (outer) clothing in such a way as not to show their adornment. But to refrain (i.e. not to discard their outer clothing) is better for them. And Allāh is All-Hearer, All-Knower. (An-Nur 24:60)
-there are many verses in the Quran that explain the
wearing of the nijab
-it is recommended that the old woman still wear hijab, because
they still have sexual needs
-in darul harb emphasis is placed on zina
O Prophet! Tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to draw their cloaks (veils) all over their bodies (i.e. screen themselves completely except the eyes or one eye to see the way). That will be better, that they should be known (as free respectable women) so as not to be annoyed. And Allāh is Ever Oft Forgiving, Most Merciful. (Al-Ahzab 33:59)
-the hadith in brackets about one eye is weak
-as explained before the translator doesn't know the hadith is
weak
-the hypocrites in media slandered Aisha
-they would make indecent proposals to Muslim girls
-if you propose marriage, this is decent
-if you propose zina, this is indecent
-they hypocrites used to say after that they didn't know that
they were muslimah
-after they had proposed indecently
-after the ayat came down the hypocrites were checkmated
-they couldn't say anymore that they didn’t know they were Muslims
O you who believe! Enter not the Prophet's houses, except when leave is given to you for a meal, (and then) not (so early as) to wait for its preparation. But when you are invited, enter, and when you have taken your meal, disperse, without sitting for a talk. Verily, such (behaviour) annoys the Prophet, and he is shy of (asking) you (to go), but Allāh is not shy of (telling you) the truth. And when you ask (his wives) for anything you want, asks them from behind a screen that is purer for your hearts and for their hearts. And it is not (right) for you that you should annoy Allah’s Messenger, nor that you should ever marry his wives after him (his death). Verily! With Allāh that shall be an enormity. (Al-Ahzab 33:53)
-the wives of the prophet were the mothers of the believers
-so they could not marry their mothers
-a sahabah used to say he would marry Aisha after the prophet
died
-the prophet didn't go at him for this
-he overlooked this because talha was a lion in Islam
Asmaa said: We used to cover our faces in front of men It was narrated that Asma’ bint Abi Bakr said: We used to cover our faces in front of men.
[Narrated by Ibn Khuzaymah, 4/203; al-Haakim, 1/624. He classed it as saheeh and al-Dhahabi agreed with him. It was also classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Jilbaab al-Mar’ah al-Muslimah]
-the hadith means that it is mustahab not fard for women to
cover their faces
-the scholars have great arguments about this
-call each other jahil
-anything to do with women will call fitnah
-the arguments will be presented
::THE 8 CONDITIONS OF THE HIJAB::
Firstly:
(It should cover all the body apart from whatever has been
exempted).
Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
“O Prophet! Tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to draw their cloaks (veils) all over their bodies (i.e. screen themselves completely except the eyes or one eye to see the way). That will be better, that they should be known (as free respectable women) so as not to be annoyed. And Allaah is Ever Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.”
This aayah clearly states that it is obligatory to cover all of a woman’s beauty and adornments and not to display any part of that before non-mahram men (“strangers”) except for whatever appears unintentionally, in which case there will be no sin on them if they hasten to cover it up.
Al-Haafiz ibn Katheer said in his Tafseer:
This means that they should not display any part of their adornment to non-mahrams, apart from that which it is impossible to conceal. Ibn Mas’ood said: such as the cloak and robe, i.e., what the women of the Arabs used to wear, an outer garment which covered whatever the woman was wearing, except for whatever appeared from beneath the outer garment. There is no sin on a woman with regard to this because it is impossible to conceal it.
Secondly:
(it should not be an adornment in and of itself)
Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
“… and not to show off their adornment…” [Al-Noor 24:31].
The general meaning of this phrase includes the outer garment, because if it is decorated it will attract men’s attention to her. This is supported by the aayah in Soorat al-Ahzaab (interpretation of the meaning):
“And stay in your houses, and do not display yourselves like that of the times of ignorance” [Al-Ahzaab 33:33].
It is also supported by the hadeeth in which the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “There are three, do not ask me about them: a man who leaves the jamaa’ah, disobeys his leader and dies disobedient; a female or male slave who runs away then dies; and a woman whose husband is absent and left her with everything she needs, and after he left she made a wanton display of herself. Do not ask about them.”(Narrated by al-Haakim, 1/119; Ahmad, 6/19; from the hadeeth of Faddaalah bint ‘Ubayd. Its isnaad is saheeh and it is in al-Adab al-Mufrad).
Thirdly:
(It should be thick and not transparent or “see-thru”)
-because it cannot cover properly otherwise. Transparent or see-thru clothing makes a woman more tempting and beautiful. Concerning this the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “During the last days of my ummah there will be women who are clothed but naked, with something on their heads like the humps of camels. Curse them, for they are cursed.” Another hadeeth adds: “They will not enter Paradise or even smell its fragrance, although its fragrance can be detected from such and such a distance.”(Narrated by Muslim from the report of Abu Horary)
Ibn ‘Abd al-Barr said: what the Prophet (ﷺ) meant was women who wear clothes made of light fabric which describes and does not cover. They are clothed in name but naked in reality.[Transmitted by al-Suyooti in Tanweer al-Hawaalik, 3/103]
Fourthly: (It should be loose, not tight so that it describes any part of the body)
The purpose of clothing is to prevent fitnah (temptation), and this can only be achieved if clothes are wide and loose. Tight clothes, even if they conceal the colour of the skin, still describe the size and shape of the body or part of it, and create a vivid image in the minds of men. The corruption or invitation to corruption that is inherent in that is quite obvious. So the clothes must be wide.
Usaamah ibn Zayd said: “The Messenger of Allaah (ﷺ) gave me a thick Egyptian garment that was one of the gifts given to him by Duhyat al-Kalbi, and I gave it to my wife to wear. He said, ‘Why do I not see you wearing that Egyptian garment?’ I said, ‘I gave it to my wife to wear.’ He said, ‘Tell her to wear a gown underneath it, for I am afraid that it may describe the size of her bones.’” (Narrated by al-Diyaa’ al-Maqdisi in al-Ahaadeeth al-Mukhtaarah, 1/442, and by Ahmad and al-Bayhaqi, with a hasan isnaad).
Fifthly:
(It should not be perfumed with bakhoor or fragrance)
There are many ahaadeeth which forbid women to wear perfume when they go out of their houses. We will quote here some of those which have saheeh isnaads:
Abu Moosa al-Ash’ari said: the Messenger of Allaah (ﷺ) said: “Any woman who puts on perfume then passes by people so that they can smell her fragrance, is an adulteress.”
Zaynab al-Thaqafiyyah reported that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “If any one of you (women) goes out to the mosque, let her not touch any perfume.”
Abu Hurayra said: the Messenger of Allaah (ﷺ) said:
“Any woman who has scented herself with bakhoor (incense), let her not attend ‘Ishaa’ prayers with us.”
Moosa ibn Yassaar said that a woman passed by Abu Hurayra and her scent was overpowering. He said, “O female slave of al-Jabbaar, are you going to the mosque?” She said, “Yes,” He said, “And have you put on perfume because of that?” She said, “Yes.” He said, “Go back and wash yourself, for I heard the Messenger of Allaah (ﷺ) say: ‘If a woman comes out to the mosque and her fragrance is overpowering, Allaah will not accept any prayer from her until she goes home and washes herself.’”
These ahaadeeth are general in implication. Just as the prohibition covers perfume applied to the body, it also covers perfume applied to the clothes, especially in the third hadeeth, where bakhoor (incense) is mentioned, because incense is used specifically to perfume the clothes.
The reason for this prohibition is quite clear, which is that women’s fragrance may cause undue provocation of desires. The scholars also included other things under this heading of things to be avoided by women who want to go to the mosque, such as beautiful clothes, jewellery that can be seen, excessive adornments and mingling with men. [See Fath al-Baari, 2/279]
Ibn Daqeeq al-‘Eed said:
This indicates that it is forbidden for a woman who wants to go to the mosque to wear perfume, because this causes provocation of men’s desires.
This was reported by al-Manaawi in Fayd al-Qadeer, in the commentary on the first hadeeth of Abu Hurayra quoted above.
Sixthly:
(It should not resemble the clothing of men)
It was reported in the saheeh ahaadeeth that a woman who imitates men in dress or in other ways is cursed. There follow some of the ahaadeeth that we know:
Abu Hurayra said: “The Messenger of Allaah (ﷺ) cursed the man who wears women’s clothes, and the woman who wears men’s clothes.”
‘Abd-Allaah ibn ‘Amr said: I heard the Messenger of Allaah (ﷺ) say: ‘They are not part of us, the women who imitate men and the men who imitate women.’”
Ibn ‘Abbaas said: “The Prophet (ﷺ) cursed effeminate men and masculine women. He said, ‘Throw them out of your houses.’” He said: “The Prophet (ﷺ) expelled So and so, and ‘Umar expelled So and so.” According to another version: “The Messenger of Allaah (ﷺ) cursed men who imitate women and women who imitate men.”
‘Abd-Allaah ibn ‘Amr said: “The Messenger of Allaah (ﷺ) said: ‘There are three who will not enter Paradise and Allaah will not even look at them on the Day of Resurrection: one who disobeys his parents, a woman who imitates men, and the duyooth (cuckold, weak man who feels no jealousy over his womenfolk).”
Ibn Abi Maleekah – whose name was ‘Abd-Allaah ibn ‘Ubayd-Allaah – said: “It was said to ‘Aa’ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her), ‘What if a woman wears (men’s) sandals?’ She said: ‘The Messenger of Allaah (ﷺ) cursed women who act like men.’”
These ahaadeeth clearly indicate that it is forbidden for women to imitate men and vice versa, This usually includes dress and other matters, apart from the first hadeeth quoted above, which refers to dress only.
Abu Dawood said, in Masaa’il al-Imaam Ahmad (p. 261): “I heard Ahmad being asked about a man who dresses his slave woman in a tunic. He said, ‘Do not clothe her in men’s garments, do not make her look like a man.” Abu Dawood said: “I said to Ahmad, can he give her bachelor sandals to wear? He said, no, unless she wears them to do wudoo’. I said, What about for beauty? He said, No. I said, can he cut her hair short? He said, No.”
Seventhly:
(It should not resemble the dress of kaafir women).
It is stated in sharee’ah that Muslims, men and women alike, should not resemble or imitate the kuffaar with regard to worship, festivals or clothing that is specific to them. This is an important Islamic principle which nowadays, unfortunately, is neglected by many Muslims, even those who care about religion and calling others to Islam. This is due either to ignorance of their religion, or because they are following their own whims and desires, or because of deviation, combined with modern customs and imitation of kaafir Europe. This was one of the causes of the Muslims’ decline and weakness, which enabled the foreigners to overwhelm and colonize them. “…Verily, Allaah will not change the condition of a people as long as they do not change their state themselves …”
[al-Ra’d 13:11 – interpretation of the meaning]. If only they knew.
It should be known that there is a great deal of saheeh evidence for these important rules in the Qur’aan and Sunnah, and that the evidence in the Qur’aan is elaborated upon in the Sunnah, as is always the case.
Eighthly:
(It should not be a garment of fame and vanity).
Ibn ‘Umar (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: “The Messenger of Allaah (ﷺ) said: ‘Whoever wears a garment of fame and vanity in this world, Allaah will clothe him in a garment of humiliation on the Day of Resurrection, then He will cause Fire to flame up around him.’”(Hijaab al-Mar’ah al-Muslimah, p. 54-67)
-lesbians walk around wearing men’s clothes
-men are not allowed to imitate women
-Muslims that wear the sari out is haraam
-that is the dress of the Hindus
-saris expose the stomach
-the men of your household will be held responsible on that day
of judgement
-expensive designer clothing is clothing of fame and vanity
Ibn ‘Umar (RA) said: “The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘Whoever wears a garment of fame and vanity in this world, Allah will clothe him in a garment of humiliation on the Day of Resurrection, then He will cause Fire to flame up around him.’” [Sunan Ibn Majah (4/601) No. 3607, Sunan Abu Dawood (4/43) No. 4029, Musnad Ahmad (2/139) No. 6245, al-Sunan al-Kubra al-Nasa'i (8/389) No. 9487]
-like paying $3000 for one abayah
-you can wear designer clothing if it does not meet these
prohibitions
-it cannot have animal’s pictures on it
-your salah is accepted but the clothing is haraam
-so you still did something haraam
::THE VIRTUES OF THE HIJAB::
The Virtues of Hijab
1. An act of obedience
The hijab is an act of obedience to Allah and to his Prophet (ﷺ), Allah says in the Quran:
"It is not for a believer, man or woman, when Allah and His messenger have decreed a matter that they should have an option in their decision. And whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger (ﷺ), has indeed strayed in a plain error." [Noble Quran 33:36]
Allah also said:
"And tell the believing women to lower their gaze (from looking at forbidden things) and protect their private parts (from illegal sexual acts, etc) and not to show off their adornment except what must (ordinarily) appear thereof, that they should draw their veils over their Juyubihinnah." [Noble Quran 24:31]
Juyubihinnah: The respected scholars from As-Salaf As-Saleh (righteous predecessors) differed whether the veil cover of the body must include the hands and face or not. Today, respected scholars say that the hands and face must be covered. Other respected scholars say it is preferable for women to cover their whole bodies.
2. The Hijab is IFFAH (Modesty).
Allah made the adherence to the hijab a manifestation for chastity and modesty. Allah says:
"O Prophet! Tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to draw their cloaks (veils) over their bodies (when outdoors). That is most convenient that they should be known and not molested." [Noble Quran 33:59]
In the above Ayah there is evidence that the recognition of the apparent beauty of the woman is harmful to her. When the cause of attraction ends, the restriction is removed. This is illustrated in the case of elderly women who may have lost every aspect of attraction. Allah made it permissible for them to lay aside their outer garments and expose their faces and hands reminding, however, that is still better for them to keep their modesty.
3. The hijab is Taharah (Purity)
Allah had shown us the hikmah (wisdom) behind the legislation of
the hijab:
"And when you ask them (the Prophet's wives) for anything you want, ask them from behind a screen that is purer for your hearts and their hearts." [Noble Quran 33:53]
The hijab makes for greater purity for the hearts of believing men and women because it screens against the desire of the heart. Without the hijab, the heart may or may not desire. That is why the heart is more pure when the sight is blocked (by hijab) and thus the prevention of fitnah (evil actions is very much manifested. The hijab cuts off the ill thoughts and the greed of the sick hearts:
"Be not soft in speech, lest he in whose heart is a disease (of hypocrisy or evil desire for adultery, etc) should be moved with desire, but speak in an honourable manner." [Noble Quran 33:32]
4. The hijab is a Shield
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "Allah, Most High, is Hayie (Bashful), Sittir (Shielder). He loves Haya' (Bashfulness) and Sitr (Shielding; Covering).
"The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) also said: "Any woman who takes off her clothes in other than her husband's house (to show off for unlawful purposes), has broken Allah's shield upon her."
The hadith demonstrates that depending upon the kind of action committed there will be either reward (if good) or punishment (if bad).
5. The hijab is Taqwah (Righteousness)
Allah says in the Quran:
"O children of Adam! We have bestowed raiment upon you to cover yourselves (screen your private parts, etc) and as an adornment. But the raiment of righteousness, that is better." [Noble Quran 7:26]
The widespread forms of dresses in the world today are mostly for show off and hardly taken as a cover and shield of the woman's body. To the believing women, however the purpose is to safeguard their bodies and cover their private parts as a manifestation of the order of Allah. It is an act of Taqwah (righteousness)
6. The hijab is Eeman (Belief or Faith)
Allah did not address His words about the hijab except to the believing women, Al-Mo'minat. In many cases in the Quran Allah refers to the "the believing women". Aisha, the wife of the Prophet (ﷺ), addressed some women from the tribe of Banu Tamim who came to visit her and had light clothes on them, they were improperly dressed: "If indeed you are believing women, then truly this is not the dress of the believing women, and if you are not believing women, then enjoy it."
7. The hijab is Hayah' (Bashfulness)
There are two authentic hadith which state: "Each religion has a morality, and the morality of Islam is hayah'" AND "Bashfulness is from belief, and belief is in Al-Jannah (paradise)". The hijab fits the natural bashfulness which is a part of the nature of women.
8. The hijab is Gheerah
The hijab fits the
natural feeling of Gheerah, which is intrinsic in the straight man who does not
like people to look at his wife or daughters. Gheerah is a driving emotion that
drives the straight man to safeguard women who are related to him from
strangers. The straight MUSLIM man has Gheerah for ALL MUSLIM women in response
to lust and desire, men look (with desire) at other women while they do not
mind that other men do the same to their wives or daughters. The mixing of
sexes and absence of hijab destroys the Gheerah in men. Islam considers Gheerah
an integral part of faith. The dignity of the wife or daughter or any other
Muslim woman must be highly respected and defended.
It is not for a believer, man or woman, when Allāh and His Messenger have decreed a matter that they should have any option in their decision. And whoever disobeys Allāh and His Messenger, he has indeed strayed in a plain error. (Al-Ahzab 33:36)
1) If a sister wears the hijab you should give her credit
-you should always marry the Muslimah who wears the hijab over
the one who doesn't
-this shows the sister is a believer
-they believe in Allah
ودخل نسوة من بني تميم على عائشة رضي الله عنها عليهن ثياب رقاق، فقالت عائشة: إن كنتن مؤمنات فليس هذا بلباس المؤمنات، وإن كنتن غير مؤمنات فتمتعينه
Some women from Banu Tamim came to see 'Aisha (RA) wearing transparent clothing. 'Aisha said to them: "If you are believing women, these are not the clothes of believing women." [Tafsir al-Qurtubi (14/244)]
وأدخلت امرأة عروس على عائشة رضي الله عنها وعليها خمار قبطي معصفر، فلما رأتها قالت: لم تؤمن بسورة" النور" امرأة تلبس هذا
A bride came to see
'Aishah (RA) wearing a sheer, transparent khimaar, whereupon 'Aishah (RA) said:
"A woman who wears such clothing does not believe in Soorat An-Nur." [Tafsir
al-Qurtubi (14/244)]

4)
-The hijab is a statement of taqwah go for the woman who wears it
O Children of Adam! We have bestowed raiment upon you to cover yourselves (screen your private parts, etc.) and as an adornment, and the raiment of righteousness, that is better. Such are among the Ayāt (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) of Allāh, that they may remember (i.e. leave falsehood and follow truth) (Al-A'raf 7:26)
-the hijab is also a fitnah

Russian
-any country that has Muslim blood on its hands is darul harb
-or they imprison Muslims
And fight in the Way of Allāh those who fight you, but transgress not the limits. Truly, Allāh likes not the transgressors. [This Verse is the first one that was revealed in connection with Jihād, but it was supplemented by another (V.9:36)](Al-Baqarah 2:190)
And kill them wherever you find them, and turn them out from where they have turned you out. And Al-Fitnah is worse than killing. And fight not with them at Al-Masjid-al-Harām (the sanctuary at Makkah), unless they (first) fight you there. But if they attack you, then kill them. Such is the recompense of the disbelievers(Al-Baqarah 2:191)
5)
-the hijab is also al walaa wa baraa
-if you are in a big city you can tell who is who
-you can tell a Christian by the cross they wear
-the Hindus by the clothes they wear
-the Muslims by the hijab
-the hijabis looked after shaikh when he was in prison
6) these women who leave their house like this do not believe in surah noor
7) Belief is in jenna
-a woman who wears hijab it is difficult for her to commit zina
-one who doesn’t it is easy because her bashfulness is gone
8) Gheerah is jealousy
-a pure man has this over his womenfolk
-he protects them from strangers
-he is jealous over all Muslim women
-whatever city you walk in if you see a kaffir harassing a
Muslim woman you will come to her defence
-he wants to protect every sister in the world
-to be a pure Muslim you have to have this in your heart
-when you allow your daughters to walk the streets without hijab
you have lost the gheerah
-you have to earn the title of being a man
-if you allow these things you are a dayouth
-kaffirs do wife swapping
-the dignity of a woman must be highly respected
