Hijab

HIJAB? what is HIJAB? (Hijaab (Muslim Veil), Hejab (An Act of Faith), Islamic dress for women) 

There are many sisters who have failed to understand the actual meaning of Hijab (Hejab). Hijab technically means covering. Islam desires the preservation of social tranquility and familial peace. Hence, it asks women to cover themselves in their inter-actions with men, whom they are not related to.

Most IMPORTANT about Hijab (Hejab) is that ALLAH has ordered to wear Hijab. For detail please see Noble Qur'an

"O Prophet! Tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to draw their cloaks (veils) all over their bodies (i.e.screen themselves completely except the eyes or one eye to see the way). That will be better, that they should be known (as free respectable women) so as not to be annoyed. And Allah is Ever Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful".(Al-Ahzab: 59)

The pea is a splendid plant. It proudly displays its strong green Hijab (Hejab). It protects it from the hot and cold weather and guards it from insects. ALLAH has blessed the pea with a special Hijab (Hejab), because without it, the seeds would scatter, dry up and die. 

The orange keeps itself within its shiny orange Hijab (Hejab) to protect its delicious fruit. Otherwise it looses its taste too. 

So are the banana, the coconut and the pomegranate. Each one has an elegant and unique Hijab (Hejab), which protects it from disease and destruction. 

The jewel of the sea, the pearl, has been given a very tough and rugged Hijab (Hejab) - oyster shell. It protects it from sea animals and keeps it sparkling and shining inside. 

However, the most beloved of ALLAH in all His creation is the Muslim Girl who wears the Hijab. She knows it is a gift from ALLAH. It protects her from harm, injury and mischief. She wears it knowing it gives her dignity, beauty and respect. So precious she can be that she hides herself beneath her Hijab.

"And tell the believing women to lower their gaze (from looking at forbidden things), and protect their private parts (from illegal sexual acts, etc.) and not to show off their adornment except only that which is apparent (like palms of hands or one eye or both eyes for necessity to see the way, or outer dress like veil, gloves, head-cover, apron, etc.), and to draw their veils all over Juyubihinna (i.e. their bodies, faces, necks and bosoms, etc.) and not to reveal their adornment except to their husbands, their fathers, their husband's fathers, their sons, their husband's sons, their brothers or their brother's sons, or their sister's sons, or their (Muslim) women (i.e. their sisters in Islam), or the (female) slaves whom their right hands possess, or old male servants who lack vigour, or small children who have no sense of the shame of sex. And let them not stamp their feet so as to reveal what they hide of their adornment. And all of you beg ALLAH to forgive you all, O believers, that you may be successful".(An-Nur : 31)
