      Hey Elke,

      Basic instinct and Peace in the same line ?

      I guess the appropriate translation would be
      "Do not move your legs (can be sitting or walking) in a way to reveal your hidden attraction"
      Since Elke is in to Hollywood...if you walk like Naomi Campbel even with a quite loose fitting garment still a woman will draw lot of attention. Attraction is not only showing a part of the body its the figure also.

      Peace

            Peace all

            One would think that 'Striking their Feet ' is more referring to female "strutting their Stuff" ala Female Models in a Fashion Parade , That surely will attract attention from male and female. -[

              That was only one example, he shows the real arabic meaning which is intruiging, and still it refers to not move in a way that seduces, so this refers also still to dancing and strutting and so on you refer to.

              "Do not move your legs in a way to reveal your hidden attraction"

                24 31
                By parting the legs too much while sitting or when walking women can show their
                hidden attractions. I never understood the reason for women to strike their feet or how
                that can show their attraction.

                This is my humble opinion of the verse and please add your thoughts.

                It doesnt say that this verse speaks of women in a perticular discourse as in walking or sitting.
                I rather say this is a matter of not letting someone in to easily.

                  Hi Stephnie

                  It is good to know that you are still reading Qur'an even after converting to Judaism. Keep it up.

                      Peace everybody.

                      Letting in too easily and moving the legs.....

                      Only way you can let some one in is through marraige, easily or otherwise.

                      If you let anyone in for money or gratification or because you are fast loose and easy or want to be accepted that is called zina. Its dealt sepatarely.

                      Who is Stephanie btw

                          Haha! Judaism where most of the koranic material comes from anyway so it's inevitable not read it, regardless in what book(s).

                          Right, so you believe that there's nothing between a woman committing to a man through a ritual and selling the pleasures of her body for money? Give me a break...

                              I donlt think that a walking woman with parting legs will reveal her hidden attraction because a loose and long Jlibab (a dress) should take care of that

                              i don't believe a jilbab is absolutely necessary. Conventional jilbabs are far too long, you could easily trip over them, and they are extremely baggy and make you look 5 stones bigger.

                              "O prophet, tell your wives, your daughters, and the wives of the believers that they shall LENGTHEN their garments. Thus, they will be recognized and avoid being insulted. God is Forgiver, Most Merciful." 3359

                              With the Quran being a fully detailed, unambigious book if you reflect on this verse and how God ordered the prophet to tell his wives, his daughters and the wives of the believers to lengthen their garments, in this verse, God, DELIBERATELY said tell them to lengthen their garments, and never said how long is long. God could have said tell them to lengthen their garments to their ankles or to their mid-calf or to their knees, but HE DID NOT. God knows that we will be living in different communities and have different cultures and insists that the minor details of this dress code will be left for the people of every community to decide for themselves.

                              I would have expected a traditional muslim to say that a jilbab is required.

                              peace,

                                Sugar, it doesn't really say that in arabic, it refers to jileb, meaning more loose-fitting clothes, then immediately lenghten your clothes.....

                                    If i'm correct it refers more to hanging clothes... So they must hang from a certain point and not cling to your body in a thight way. But i need more research to give a better answer..

                                          I guess we are talking two different subjects here. I mean we are on different frequencies.

                                          Old enough.
