Taking off the Hijab

rotfl This discussion has really made me laugh. The funny thing is, I was literally coming on this forum to ask this original question. I've been wanting to take off my headscarf for a while; and have slowly been doing what Sarah suggested, I'm at the showing my neck stage...
I'm still worried about what my friends are going to say. They were really supportive when I decided to wear it, giving me scarfs and pins etc. But that was before I learnt more about my faith. I know I rushed into wearing the headscarf but I know what everyone's going to think. A girl in my school stopped wearing the headscarf for one day and the backbiting carried on for weeks.

Not that type of beard )

Stubble is attractive on a man as it accentuates his jaw line, making him look more masculine. But full on beards are unattractive because they hide the jawline, reducing the appearance of masculinity as well as making it harder to recognise emotions.

The Quran does not advocate the Hijab. The Quran says to cover your bossoms( breasts and butt) and to lengthen garments which means no mini skirts or midriff belly shirts. It means to wear modest clothes that dont show off your body sexually and to be protected from lustful eyes watching your chest or booty. We are not to reveal our chests to anyone but our husbands and that we should subdue our gaze and not be looking into mens eyes and there faces with sex and lust. We should not strike our feet to make our booties jiggle and draw attention.
DRESS CODE IN QURAN
Dress modestly
Cover our chest
Lengthen our garments( longer skirts and shirts as to not show off body)
do not show details of our bodies (breasts, butt, Thighs, etc)Dress code in Quran
Only show neccesary parts (2431)
Cover the chest ( 2431)
Dress modestly( 2431) def of modesty= quiet and humble in appearance
Lengthen your garment(3359)No where in those verses does it say we are required to wear hijab, We are required to the above mentioned but not required to wear Hijab. Some experts say that Neccesary parts are only eyes and some say the parts in which we use to perform prayers. GOD does not want us to hide or to make our lives difficult or complicated by having to wear hijab. If we dress modestly, cover our chests, lengthen out garments and do not show off the details or our bodies we will be in proper dress code accourding to the Quran.

i just thought i'd add remember Quran isn't against cultural rites and as societies move on from generation to generation things change as part of social/cultural norms. Doesn't mean people need to adopt them just saying it's part of society and that's fine but obligating it and make it part of religion or obligation is when lines get crossed.
I don't.
I guess it'll be easier for you to take it off. the difference with me is i wore hijab because i "thought" it was an obligation. i felt i was doing right, following God's commands... i know how big the hijab is associated with the community i.e. she's following God's commands, shes doing jihad(struggling) in non muslim country to support her identity.. it's an identity and the fact that it's been apart of me so long it feels odd to just throw it off.
hijab has it's good points but people are just drawn to "it's oppressive, why should i bla bla bla"

sure, Quran isn't advocating hijab. it's given us the benchmark of the guidelines. IF we do more that's our actions irrespective of Quran.
i was thinking if i did take hijab off i'd need to change my wardrobe slightly. with the headscarf at least if the top is low cut it can cover. even if it isn't low cut cross your arms, or bend down you've exposed yourself.. most women's clothing tends to be more huggie as in tight fitted and low cut. just contrasts women's tops to men's.. kinda annoying.
