I Love Hijab

The Hijab today is a hot topic in Islamic countries. Hijab is to veil, to cover, or to screen. The hijab, one of the most prominent symbols of Islam, is apparently undergoing a modernization. Islam is known as a religion concerned with community cohesion and moral boundaries, and therefore the hijab is a way of ensuring that the moral boundaries between unrelated men and women are respected.  Today there are many styles of hijab, one of many designers leading the way in this modest, yet trendy Islamic style of dress .

Firstly, the Hijab is to veil, to cover, to screen. Two verses of the Holy Quran succinctly and candidly deal with the basic concept of veil in Islam.  First; in Sura An-Nur (The light) the Quran says: “And tell the believing women to lower their gazes and be modest, and to display of their adornments only that which is apparent, and to draw their veils over their bosoms.”(24:31). It is clear that mentioned that sex parts must not be exposed and must be covered.  “Adornment which is apparent” alludes to the common body parts between male and female sexes.  The face, hands and feet are common parts and are exposed without any indecency or immodesty.  Second; The other verse of the Holy Quran is in Sura Al-Ahzab (The confederates). From these two above mentioned Quranic verses it is clear that God ordains to cover the bodies and strictly rejects and condemns nudity and obscenity.

Next, the hijab is a symbol of Islam. Hijab can be a symbol of piety and it can be a sign of great inner strength and fortitude. However, Hijab has emerged as a sign of Islamic consciousness. A women wearing the hijab becomes a very visible sign of Islam. Nevertheless, women who wear the hijab insist that the advantages for outweigh any disadvantages. The majority of Muslim women wear the hijab, to obey God, and to be known as respectable women.  (Quran 33:59). There is evidence to suggest that the other majority muslim in Arabic literally means the Hijab is a screen or curtain, and is used in the Qur'an to refer to a partition. The Qur'an instructs the male believers to talk to the wives of the Prophet Muhammad behind a hijab. This hijab was the responsibility of the men and not the wives of Prophet Muhammad. However, in later Muslim societies this instruction, specific to the wives of Prophet Muhammad, was generalized, leading to the commonly understood belief that hijab is a requirement in Islamic tradition.

Moreover, the Hijab ensures moral boundaries we respected. In this sense, the term hijab encompasses more than a scarf and more then a dress code.  It is a term that denotes modest dressing and modest behaviour.  For instance, if a Muslim woman was wearing a scarf but at the same time using bad language, she would not be fulfilling the requirements of hijab.  Women wearing hijab have expressed that dressing modestly and covering their hair, minimises sexual harassment in the workplace. The aura of privacy created by hijab is indicative of the great value Islam places upon women .

Finally, the Hijab is undergoing modernization, the trend is highly visible online. There are many styles of Hijab. In this era, there are many girls or woman have weared  hijab, that is the good one. Actually all of muslims especially women must wear hijab to cover their body.
