She's Not Naked !!!
-
peace
Why are there so many men coming to this thread telling women how to dress and where to go or not to go? It's bizarre. I can't for the life of me imagine entering a discussion about men's swimming attire, passionately insisting men should dress a certain way, or stay out of the public space.
wow
I doubt that any of the women participating in or reading this thread is going to change their mind because of any of the arguments they are reading here.Those of you guys who feel that they are not capable of dealing with the temptation of seeing a woman in a bikini ? there's a simple solution. Just stay away from beaches and poolsides. You have absolutely no right to demand that we adjust our dress and behaviour based on your personal preferences, based on your male gaze. If you have a problem with women in bathing suits or short clothes that's just that ? your problem. Don't try to make it mine by shrouding your insecurities and inappropriate demands in phrases about religious obligation or social responsibility.

Are you a man or a woman, mmmm? If you're male, why do you care what women wear on the beach?
I'm starting to think the bikini must really be something very dangerous and powerful if the mere mentioning of wearing it provokes so many emotional responses from men, so much fear and anger and hatred. Interesting.
hmm -
It seems that people don't know or intentionally ignore 2431 and 3359..and then bring conclusions based only on 726.
It is sad to see how many people are brainwashed by feminism, and are unaware of it...You did not answer my question.
I am not a supporter of bikini because it makes women seen as objects and disrespectful.
But you are only concerned about women's clothing only. Almost all your posts on this forum are in women's clothing threads. Is this what interests you?
You want women to wear burqa? -
but she want to wear a bikini but she thinks is haram
I think maybe many are objecting because the question of this thread clearly relating to the issue of whether it is "halal" or "haram".... and there is nothing mentioned based on other values, eg. freedom of way of life, equality etc.
However if the question is related to the value of freedom, wear it. If one wants to be naked, then do it.. be naked (5.105). They are free to do that and should be respected for their choice as long it did not directly harm the society. No one from the society can stop them, and no one can make them to be a Believer.
And had your Lord willed
those on earth would have believed
all of them entirely
Then, would you compel the people in order that they become believers?
(10.99)They are FREE to do what they want, but they are NOT FREE to claim it is from Allah. This is ridiculous, to align and validate all their desires using Allah's name. This is nothing about freedom, but about distorting the Quran for the gratification of their "ego and self esteem" relating to other values of life. They need more exercise for mental strength.

The point some of us are trying to make
Can you go swimming in the sea ? What are the appropriate cloth/es you use?
Q Can you go swimming in the sea ?
A Yes, make sure it's safe for you to do so. Make sure you can swim, there's no shark, jellyfish, no strong current etc..
Q What are the appropriate cloth/es you use?
A Up to you, make sure it's safe for you and you follow the LOCAL CUSTOM/TRADITION (if the swimming area is crowded with people) if nude is safe then go nude..If you like traditional diving and "diving in nude" then go to Japan and learn few tips from this people.
Ama Divers, Traditional Japanese Divers (Read Ama means "Women of the Sea"
http//gakuran.com/ama-the-pearl-diving-mermaids-of-japan/Note Is there anyone here who would label the Ama as "Immoral people"?
Salam / Peace

Peace Jafar.
Interesting brother. Do you go there often?
I might join you on your next trip, to take a look at these mermaids and admire their skill.
As always you bring a good and valid point.
Peace to you

Of course they are free to claim it's from God, and they are doing so. There's nothing you can do to take this freedom away.
"Freedom" in terms of the rules in the Quran..
Allah only gave them freedom to live the life they choose, and no one should interfere... It is personal.
BUT Allah does not give them freedom to claim it is from Allah.
Do you have verse to support your conclusion?

Only once... if you book the travel through tour agent and expecting to see the Ama to dive in nudity then the travel shall fell short of your expectation.
The Ama (or Japanese in general) is a very kind and tolerant people.
The Ama are aware that among the foreign tourist there are those who felt that "they're highly civilized due to their clothing style as told by their holy book" and their 'traditional diving suit' might fell short of 'the foreigners highly civilized and moral standard'.
Thus to avoid either being labeled as 'immoral', 'pagan', 'uncivilized', 'must be converted this instant' or 'must be put to death', the Ama choose to adapt their 'tradition' to the 'tradition of the foreign tourist'. The Ama dive like this as part of tourist attraction.

I admire the Japanese because they have great mental strength and very discipline, even to the extend of drinking tea. I can't imagine if they follow the proper rules of Islam, what kind of Believers they will be. Maybe someday I'll experience life with their monks in the temple, a year or two.. and learning how they see and value life. Becoming a Buddhist monk. laugh

BUT Allah does not give them freedom to claim it is from Allah.
This is getting childish and ridiculous.
Going to the beach in a bikini is absolutely okay with Allah. http//foolstown.com/sm/rev.gif http//www.intercot.com/discussion/images/smilies/vacation.gif http//i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj184/befje/smileys%203/bth_bf-smileytire.gif http//www.troublefreepool.com/images/smilies/jason/smiley-sport038.gif sun
There, I said it. You believe God doesn't give me the freedom to do so, fine. That doesn't affect my opinion or the fact that you can't censor me. Salam.

I think you have problem to understand the issue.. laugh
"Freedom" in terms of the rules in the Quran..
and... obviously you have no verse to support your conclusion.
Therefore, it is not from Allah.. .
It is from you.. your statement, your rule.
Therefore, you are not free to claim it is true from Allah. yes
You need more exercise.
p.s. even a madman can claim those are from Allah, then what difference does it make with those argument? laugh

Seeing this kind of discussion only made me questioning Islam itself.

This thread is as long as it is, because the men are afraid of losing their authority over the women. They are afraid of losing their ability to guilt us into dressing a certain way. It's all about control.
I've been to many beaches in here in the US and the Caribbean. The beaches are almost always family friendly environments. I have not seen any guys on the verge of raping anyone.
Meanwhile, on a trip to India (my mom's hometown), I had boys throwing small rocks at me because I was wearing JEANS. brickwall

That's exactly what it is about. And that's why some men on here get so emotional, aggressive, and insulting. They can't deal with the fact that we don't take their attempts at shaming and scaring us seriously.

There's an 'ancient' saying
"If you're in Rome, dress like Romans"
In India's remote area? Wear Sari..
In Detroit? Don't wear Hijab, that's dangerous to your safety.
etc...And it has nothing to do with morality..

Peace Earthdom,
Qur'an foresaw this behavior. It is nothing to lose Faith over?
And there hardly ought to be any blame exclusively on the women as it the immorality of the whole community that should be at blame. If every person everywhere did not reward a certain way of being then people would change their ways. So men show appreciation of dressing a certain way. But then we can also ask ourselves if it should be disallowed for a woman to bathe just because she risks showing her nakedness. It is a restriction of freedom. I suppose this is turning it a bit extreme.
But in an urban setting there is no reason with extreme cleavage or excessive naked skin and when you need to express your beauty in such a way it may be a bit immodest. It is obvious that many women choose a certain dress to show their beauty as a female human.
Difficult is where to draw the limit. But the community together draws that standard and in the western world it is okay with generous cleavage and things like that so no wonder these women protect their newfound dresscode. If something is normalized then it is difficult to change, but like I said in my previous post that if men showed their dislike at the heavy body revelation then women would change, but right now the whole community is accepting the behavior and looks except people who are seen as a minority. It is only when a majority of people show a certain thing is wrong or people of authority then a certain behavior will change.
God bless you

Peace,
I forgot to say that this behavior must come from the women themselves through inclination rather than men forcing a certain way of dressing.
God bless you
