with scarf to wear around my neck. The type of clothing covering much

Salaam Sister

Hijab is a pagan pratice. Read history.
no hijab in quran.
Wearing Hijab is rejection. Wearing Hijab is following what other than god said.

Peace

Salam!

I understand. But the Koran says you must cover the chest, should I use a scarf?

This dwelling on the clothing of women as if it was a thing different from anybody else's clothing and a consecrated part of religion for women and apart from everything else and very important is obssessive and sick.

THE QUR'AN DOES NOT DO THAT.

Muslims, in whichever sense we take the word, will never get anywhere as long as they put women's clothing as a source of anything or a meaning special aside form everything else. Clothing of women is of no more consequence than clothing of men. and what 24.31 says is not about clothing but about an attitude and it is for the sole benefit of women as human beings and not for the benefit of any purported "modesty". By the way a very convenient word "modesty" becuse of its ambivalence you can switch from meaning something to do with decency, sexual decency, to mean humbleness. Very convenient to manipulate women and their feeling of guilt.

Here is what I wrote in a thread, -another one of the many hundreds-, on hijab and that crap. The hijab question is no question at all it is crap.

Here is what I wrote

"It says "yubdina", that is to show, to exhibit, to make obvious. It means that one does not make a show of it, does not make and end of making anything obvious. One thing is that whatever is seen and another thing is that it is shown, displayed, exhibited, paraded. You may wear a silk scarve on your neck, it is seen, but it is not necessarily shown. If you show it, you draw atention to it, you wnt that people detain their look on it observe it, tke notice of it. So it is about not making a show of themselves, not that if a leg is seen it is a sin, or something like that it is to make a show of the legs or of the hair or of whatever, of the breasts even if they are covered, one can make a show of anything even if it is covered. Women are being advised against vanity, which as happens with hips, breasts,etc. in women it is very much encouraged to make it a valuable asset. Women are made to rely a lot on their looks parfticularly the most "feminine" parts of them. That is the whole point. The Qur'an wants women to keep from basing their value on looks nd warns clearly about it."

The Qur'an here is not preseving women from indecency but from vanity, from letting themselves be cornered into basing their value, their social value on looks, on being attractive. It does not tell them to clothe this or that part, save for the breasts, but to not exhibit themselves and become a walking shopwindow of themselves for their own sense of self value. For temptations, the Qur'an hs the same recipe for males and females Guard yor privagte parts and lower the gaze. There no different recipe for the sexes, and this is born out very well in Yusuf's story, where a male tempts very much the females to the point of making them harass him sexually, but he keeps his virtue. In spite of that, that the only illustration that the Qur'an gives of sexual temptation is that of man, still women are pounded upon with their looks as something that affects males. Enough is enough. Women should avoid vanity for their own valuable sake, not for any nonsense that obssessed people may invent. Hijab is not in the Qur'an in any form or shape. It is fraudulent to push in.

It is the same tactic followed to condone salvery or the sexual femle slaves for the men's "needs". Not to be tempted by women hair, walk or existence seems to be another product of those men "needs" that seem to be the source olf law for many muslims. May for the power thirsty or the obssessed, who may be the same ones, but they hid their power trip behind a purported sexual obssession.

What surprises me is that many women still seem to be under the spell of this fraud.

Salaam

Thank you! There was a good response with a lot of information. So the only thing I need is to go with the scarf in front of your neck and wear clothes that cover?

salaam+ Aaleyah

Did the staring and mocking occur in the mosque, as you said you were in the mosque when a little boy said "Norway hehe"?
I know from my husband's experience, he is a Swedish Muslim, that often the Muslim people are the ones who stare at you and make you feel uncomfortable. They are not willing to accept suggestions from non Muslims, o new Muslims. My step daughter who is half Swedish, was bullied, in a Muslim school that she attended as a child. Today she is far away from Islam, so please do not be put off by some racist ignorant people.
group

Salam!

Yes I was in the mosque. A Sunni Mosque. But it's not quanrister mosque here. Sad to hear that he experiences it. Terrible that your bully was bullied, it is poorly done.

ALLAAH will judge all your actions by your intentions. I have the perfect knowledge of the law to tell you what is the best thing to do. All my fore fathers were all great scholars of islaam (44 generations up to the prophet(S+). They have taught more people( including of the greatest scholars, kings and emperors) about the qur'aan and islaam than any family in the history of the world. Everything is historically recorded. Have no fear! Serve ALLAAH as best and as beautiful as you can inshaa ALLAAH.

When my great grandfather the great shaykh of knowledge Abu Bakr Effendi al-Qurashiy al-Amjadiy left the capital city of the islamic government in Istanbul in 1862 - he was a gift to Queen Victoria - to reintroduce islaam again in Southern Africa- he reintroduced the Muslim women to wear hijab. If you can wear hijaab wear it. If it is difficult for you, hide it in your bag or wherever it is easy for you to reach. When the occasion arises for you to put it back on put it back on. May ALLAAH guide all to his right road and make it easy for them inshaa ALLAAH.

Good idea. But the others said, I'm not sure if I should use it.

Oh now I understand! People stare at native persons of a christian country converted to islaam and wearing a headscarf. Now I see, then in France also they stare at "pure French"-muslims. That is because they are used to see maghrebians-muslims and not so much French-muslims or Norwegian-muslims. And at the mosques either, the community is not formed with Norwegian-muslims or with French-muslims but with foreigners-muslims most of the time. Do not worry, they could eventually look at you more than they should, they could eventually ask you why and how did you adopt islaam as your religion, but the probability they insult you is very low I think. I remember once I was going at the university, I was in the bus sitting near a bunch of guys who were criticizing islaam, saying "but me I don't care about doing 5 prayers a day" but they didn't know what they were talking about.

?

Sad that it's like that in France too. Hope it will be different for each. That people stare. It is true. The boys have no idea what they are talking about

No, you don't have to wear hijab.

2431 And tell the believing females to lower their gaze and keep covered their private parts, and that they should not reveal their beauty except what is apparent, and let them put forth their shawls over their cleavage. And let them not reveal their beauty except to their husbands, or their fathers, or fathers of their husbands, or their sons, or the sons of their husbands, or their brothers, or the sons of their brothers, or the sons of their sisters, or their women, or those maintained by their oaths, or the male servants who are without need, or the child who has not yet understood the composition of women. And let them not strike with their feet in a manner that reveals what they are keeping hidden of their beauty. And repent to God, all of you believers, that you may succeed.

This is free-minds translation This verse is to command women to wear proper and respectable clothes.

The black cloth is a shawl. The woman in the picture wears proper clothing right?

The word hijab that occurs in Quran does not refer to head-cover but barrier.

In Sura An-Nur 24 Ayah 31, it does not command women to cover their hair. The word khumur in the verse is mistranslated into veils/head-coverings. Khimar (singular of khumur) is anything that covers something such as the table cloths that cover the table. Don't listen to al-amiyr, he is traditional/sunni Muslim. If you are a Quran-alone muslim, you should not considered hijab to be compulsory. But if you want to wear, just wear it. If you don't want to wear, don't wear.

I am an ex-Sunni. When I was 14, I was really scared. I didn't consider God to be merciful. I used to believe that God would punish people whomever He wanted. I wore the hijab even though I didn't like it. I didn't understand why God The Merciful would punish people just for not covering hair.

I shivered when I browsed and found ridiculous hadiths. I monologued "Is this a true religion?". Thank God, there was someone who told me "Hadiths were written centuries after Muhammad. If there are hadiths that go against Quran, they are not trustworthy". He is actually a Sectarian Muslim but just picks and chooses hadiths whichever sound good.

Thank God, I have found the truth. The pure islam is the creed of Abraham, a true monotheism. Muhammad didn't follow a new religion. Muhammad followed the creed of Abraham. We are only commanded by God to take Quran alone as source of religious legislation.

If you consider head-covering to be compulsory, you are no different than the Sunnis, the Shi'a 'Muslims'.

Aaleyah, it seems like you ignore links that have been given by Brother Wakas. Fine, if you want to follow al-amiyr's path. He is a traditional/sectarian Muslim who loves hadiths. I am not saying that it is wrong to wear the hijab but if you consider it to be compulsory, don't dare call yourself a Qur'an-alone muslim. Have you ever read Wakas' links?
To be honest it seems like you totally ignore links that people, such as Wakas have given you. I feel upset.

If you consider women who don't wear head-coverings would be burnt in hell, you are no different than the Sunnis/Ahlul Sunnahs the Shiahs/Shi'ites.
I do wear head-covering sometimes---When I'm forced by my parents, at school , at mosque and the places that are considered to be religious/holy places in 'Islam'.

Regards,
Yuliana

Salam!

I like the picture. I also interpreted the Qur'an as the need to cover a lot of the body and not necessarily the hair. But it does not look a bit strange that I have covered all over the body without the hijab? And yes, I read the link he gave me.

Do not say I'm Sunni, for I am not

salaam+

Pray to or rather praise ALLAAH as much as you can. In islaam there are many beautiful organized praisings of ALLAAH for every occasion. You can also offer your own if you wish. I think this will be extremely good for you and will help you inshaa ALLAAH.

Salam alikum!

Thank you for advice. I will pray more than i do now. I love to pray. Come colser to God. I hope it to Alhamdollillah

as_salaamu "alaykum warahmatullaahi wabarakaatuhu dear Aaleyah
group
I would love to know you more insha'ALLAAH

salam aleikum )

Thank you!! You are very Nice, I love to know you more too

But if you are under any pressure sister Aaleyah - then it is better for you to hide your believe for now and be as you were before without attracting any negative attention until you are fully ready to implement as much as is reasonable for you. There is no difficulty in islaam.

I understand. Thank you for advice, it means alot! But i dont hope that i dont use hijab do so i come to hell.. do you know about that? If i die tomorrw so i will be a good muslim.

as_salaamu "alaykum warahmatullaahi wabarakaatuhu dear Aaleyah

I think brother al-amiyr sees you as a believing woman, worthy of protection. I have seen a few Muslim women going around in hijab in Sweden, and Norway is not much different, I believe. Your example will instil courage, in many who, like you are hesitant in the beginning, so be a leader.
As I say; it's not the beginning nor is it the end.
congratulations
group

Salam! Thank you! i hope i have enought strong to to this..

salaam+

You said nicely in one post about something else and I quote you,
So I would say that if you love the real islaam and you wish to please ALLAAH then you would not care what the world has to say as long as you do not harm anyone else.

Salam!

I know. But im so.. i dont know. I start at School on monday and im litte afraid. I dont know if I shall use hijab or not. I starting to get bad time..

You know I am French, and since last February, I wear a headscarf and I go outside and nobody insulted me so far, and people do not stare at me either. And yet, French people do not claim to be muslim and they even have this law of taking off the headscarf at work and at school, otherwise they don't care about someone wearing headscarf in the street. What about Norway, tell me more? I heard that Norwegian people are more cool than French people about religious matters

Salam!
So good that they dont care! We have not i Law like that in Norway, but we sould had it. In Norway People dont care if People go with hijab. But if People see a Norwegian muslim they stearing. I was in the mosque and People looket at me (i wear hijab in the mosqe) and a little boy said "Norway" hehe

I dont know but the are rayer room on the schools

Here is a helpful link
http//misconceptions-about-islam.com/dress-code-women-veil.htm

Thank you for the link! But i study the quran on my own and i think it said that i have to wear hijab.

Yes!

Ok. But im Norwegian, People will staring at me. They dont think Norwegians are muslims

What is meant by progressive according to your definition?

If you have to use hijab

about marriage

for example...

Alhamdulillah. Yes. We have to pray to ALLAH ALONE. Allah is the one who created this perfect universe, made rain fall from the clouds, made the sun shine, so that fruits and vegetables grow so that we have food to eat and a means to live. Allah did this. Not Muhammad. Muhammad delivered Allah's message and did a great job. Muhammad was a great MAN and prophet and trust me, he doesn't need our blessings. But only Allah is worthy of worship. Do you really think that when Prophet Muhammad was alive, he sent blessings on himself during Salat? Did he recite "Durood", which isn't even in Quran? Or did he worship Allah alone? Be honest with yourself. What do YOU think?

The only difference between Christians and Sunnis is that... Christians openly worship Jesus. Sunnis won't admit it, but they worship Muhammad.

i think Mohammed worshiped God alone. Im sure about that.

Salaam,

This is the biggest misconception about God in Islam.

Allah is just an Arabic word for God.

Even in the Arabic Bible, the word Allah is used.

Yuliana

Salam!

Thank you for answer. I didt know that. So i can say just God?
