Coverings for Women

huruf

Why should muslim women set themselves apart as the artile startint the thread says. One sets oneself apart from evil and fahisha, but why should one set her or himself apart from other people, honest people in their looks? In what way is more decent a decent person with his o her head covered than a decent person with his or her head covered?

If yoru virtue sets you apart then that is it. If your virtue doesn't set you apart no amount of clothes will work the miracle. Besides, usually the virtuous people do not set themselves apart.

. So the belief is that hair is considered a "private" part not to be seen by everyone.

Whose belief? If a woman is bald, does it mean she does not have "private" part and is not required to hide anything?
Or did I misunderstand what hair as in "private" part you mean confused

It's not "my" belief, but it's from what I've read of Sunni writings ... from what I read, the hair would be considered 'awrah'.

Or how about this one, that says every part of a woman is awrah http//www.islam-qa.com/en/ref/11014 rotfl
Since I don't speak Arabic, I stuck in the word 'private part' instead.
hahahaha I was referring to the hair on top of the head.
Keep in mind I am not advocating it, I am just stating what I've read.

My mum told me I have 2 options

a) cover my hair
b) shave my hair off

BUT it is 'haram' for a woman to shave her hair so (a) is the only option for me
