    peace,

    Let us say that we do not have any khimar at hand. That would obviously mean that women should let their breasts uncovered, because the important part is that you use a khimar, whatever that is, and not to cover the breasts. Right?

    Are you implying the point of the verse is to use their "khumur" (covers/headcovers), and the point is not the covering of what parts?

    The verse tells us exactly the point, it is about their beauty, not an extrinsic component/garment, and it says "...composition of women", not composition of a garment. Not to mention, the words "composition of women" strongly suggest it is refering to what is specific to a woman, and that can only be breasts and private parts, further proving what parts it is referring to. All the Quranic evidence is reinforcing and complimenting each other.

    All information is correct to the best of my knowledge only and thus should not be taken as a fact. One should always seek knowledge and verify for themselves when possible: 17:36, 20:114, 35:28, 49:6, 58:11.

      No, Wakas, I am not implyig that, Precisely what I intend is making it obvious that to make the central indication of the aya on particular piece of clothing is misusing the aya, but what is intended is to cover the breasts and the kjimar is just an accessory, may be it is mentioned because it offers as quick, uncomplicated way of doing it whithout having to sew or do repairs to usual clothing, but the important thing is to cover the breasts not to use a particular piece of clothing. You fell for it, right? and you were shocked. That's right. It is not about the khimar, it is about the breasts.

      Salaam

          Translating what you quote from lisaanul 3arab

          (al khimaar for the woman is alnaseef, and it's said that al khimaar is what the woman covers her head with...)

          Is this what you call "The Primary meaning of "Khimaar" is "head cover"? I am pointing at the bolded underlined word ( and it's said...). This s not primary!

          And since we are at it, did you bother to know what / al naseef is? In this context in lisaanul 3arab, it could mean anything but head cover.
          Not only don't you know how to consult a dictionary, you do not understand simple Arabic!
          This is your way to retrieve your lies? You could have at least apologized, but it seems that this kind of good manners is not accessible to the arrogant.

          Dear Sister
          You probably do not know what "Naseef " is .It is also another name of head cover .
          MIsbah ul Mnir which you intentionally left says;

          • ( 1 / 181)

          ( )

          THE CLOTH with which the woman COVERS HER HEAD
          Now you realize why did you leave out this translation because it did not give you any clue to create any confusion as you are trying with the word 'naseef" which is synonymous with head cover.

          I requested you to visit Lane's Lexixon and Put down here what he says . I am again giving its Reference.Please Look Khimaar of original Lane's pages

          LL V2 page 445
          http//www.studyquran.co.uk/PRLonline.htm

          GA PERVAIZ LUGHAT UL QURAN

          Khah, miim, rah

          Khamr to cover or hide something khamarash shaiyia yakhmir hid him; covered him
          khamarar falanun shahadah he hid the evidence alkhamar veil; a cloth with which
          women cover their heads (orhni) * plural is khumur 2431 Lataiful Lugha says at first
          the women used to put on alghifaarah on their heads; and alkhimarah over it (for
          ghifaarah see heading ghain, feh, rah) alkhamr

          ALMAWRAD ;

          =
          VEIL ,YASHMAK (WORN BY WOMEN)

          ARABIC -ENGLISH DICTIONARY BY HANS WEHR

          = VEIL COVERING HEAD AND FACE OF A WOMAN.

          So there is no doubt that word "Khimaar " means "Head Cover".
          Regards

            Where's the word /alnaseef in this quote? Do you understand now why i "intentionally" left this Misbaah Muneer? Because it's just saying "alkhimar is a cloth with which a woman covers her head...".
            I know what naseef is, do you? So far you did not bring any meaning for al naseef.

                    peace,

                    Qstudent, you may have some use.

                    Would you be so kind as to clarify the following from Classical Arabic dictionaries

                    1. Do any say that the plural "khumur" can mean anything other than "headcovers (plural)".

                    2. What meanings do they give for "khimirr" (which, as far as I'm aware "khumur" can be a plural for).

                    3. Do any of them make reference to the traditional ahadith mentioned by Ibn Kathir? e.g. www.tafsir.com/default.asp?sid=24&tid=35857

                    I have even numbered the questions to make it easy for you. Thanks.

                              As for my personal opinion about "hijab", is that it is not mandatory.
                              Remember "...The best garment of righteousnes is the best..." (726)

                              I am no longer a Sunna-rejecter. See 4:59-65, 62:2-4, 3:31, 4:156, 7:157 Messenger teaches and is to be followed and obeyed. Examples of revelation received which is not in the Qur'an: 3:123-126, 33:37, 2:187, 66:3, 62:9.

                                Peace Q_student,

                                Please Consult Lane's lexicon under Khimaar, you will get answer of all of your questions

                                I asked you in the circumcision thread to look at other opinions and you demanded that I look to and bring references. Now when you're asked the very same thing you ask me, that is to bring evidence from references you scoff at the idea that someone should ask you that? Isn't that hypocrisy? You were asked to bring certain evidence from lexicons and then you throw it back in the face of Wakas and say, "no you go look". Sounds to me you have a problem with other people's evidence and think yours alone is the truth.

                                Joe

                                  Do what he asked of you like I did what you asked of me in the circumcision thread. Although it bore no fruit since you rejected the opposing evidence to your ideas of the truth. Even still I cited and posted references.
