One of the major issues in Islam which many
Muslims have a lot of arguments about is the issue
of“Hijab”. These arguments occur because of two
reasons, namely: (1) lack of complete understanding of
this issue and (2) lack of knowledge or ignorance of the
proofs of the obligation of “Hijab” in theQur’an and the
Sunnah.
Obviously Islam(as the true religion) gives concrete
and profound answers to all problems and issues that
bother mankind. One very good example of this is the
issue of “Hijab”.From the number of Qur’anic Ayaat and
authentic Hadiths; we can conclude that “Hijab”is indeed
a religious duty that Allah has enjoined to the believing
woman for their own protection and success.
It is a manifestation of woman’s adherence to the
Qur’an and Sunnah.It indicates her obedienceto Allah
and his Messenger. It is a sign of her strength that would
safeguard her dignity and honor against the wickedness
of some men; and accordingly, it is a protection of the
society where she belongs.
Above all it shows her preference for the hereafter
where she will be among those who will be given the
honor to see Allah’s Face.
