Islam ordained for a women to show obedience to her husband who more often
then not faces many of life’s difficulties and stresses. So Glory be to Allah for
legislating these laws and sending the last of His messengers.
We also find the accusation:
That women are prohibited from wearing the beautiful clothes outside of there
houses, isn’t this an infringement of her rights?
Firstly it should be noted that there is nothing called absolute freedom, as if you
apply this absolute freedom you will be infringing on someone else’s freedoms. For
example one cannot raise the volume of ones radio to the maximum and claim that it
is from his freedom, especially if it is late at night and he is in a residential area with
neighbors or he leaves his car in the middle of a public street making the claim of
freedom.
A human is nothing but a single creation of Allah, and so his actions and interactions
should not be determined by his desires but rather by the laws that his Lord
governed for him.
So the behavior of a woman inside or outside of her house is not according to her
head but subjugated by the will and command of Allah.
Without doubt we submit to the law of Allah and do not oppose it.
Islam prohibited for a women to dress up or beautify herself from the outside when
she leaves her house. This is to ensure her safety and betterment and the greater
benefit to the whole society as will be clarified.
We also find the accusation:
That Islam infringement on the rights of a women to wear or not wear the hijaab?
As mentioned previously the behavior of a women inside or outside of her house is
not according to her head but subject to the will and command of Allah.
Islam ordered for women to dress in a Hijab when in the presence of non-relatives
and outside when she leaves her house. This is to ensure her safety and betterment
and the greater benefit to the whole society from reducing the number of extra
marital affairs that take place because of attraction and one look.
Uncovering women causes great determent to a society breaking its family structure
and messing with blood ties of people, for example a man who is married and has
been for 15 years can be easily tempted by a women who looks younger then the
man’s old wife. It only takes one look at western society to understand the
disintegration.
- We find that in the practice of hijab is an equal benefits concepts so the man
and the women both are protected.
