In the Name
of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
Safety
& Security is more important than Hijaab
By

In
our life we face many challenges. We MUST have to take guidance from
the Quraan in all matters including Hijaab. The Quraan gives top
priority to save lives, since saving a life like save the whole world
including financial crisis. We cannot cherry pick verses from the
Quraan and give fatwa, because each and every verses of the Quraan is
very important for us to ponder on it and take guidance from it.
If
Prophet Muhammad (Peace-Be-Upon-Him) had come to Far North (e.g. Alaska
(in USA) or Siberia (in Russia) etc.) or Far South (e.g. Estancia Maria
Luisa (in Argentina) etc.) Fur Coat could have been mentioned for
Hijaab to cover from head to toe.
When
Prophet Ayub (Peace-Be-Upon-Him) got sick and was not able to work and
his wife had to go for work during his sickness. Onetime she had to
remove her Hijaab and cut her hair short for work otherwise no one was
offering her work, and she did not have any option. She was the one to
earn money to feed herself as well as her husband Prophet Ayub
(Peace-Be-Upon-Him), (Ref: Al_Quraan_021.083-084, 002.155-157).
When
Ayesha (RA) was accidently separated while travelling with a caravan
and another Sahabi found her left behind, he offered his camel and he
himself walked on foot to the next stopover. When they reached the
appointed stopover Hypocrites/Munafiqs started allegations on her which
lasted for about a month, which put Prophet Muhammad
(Peace-Be-Upon-Him) in great stress. Then Allah revealed special ayaat
regarding this matter. How dare you abuse Momina, why didn’t you
shout/yell
NO
to it? This must never ever happen against any Momina, (Ref:
Al_Quraan_024.11-21).
We are facing many
challenges. Saudi Arabia cannot give immigration to
1.8 billion Muslims.
Pakistan whose population is around
200
million cannot give immigration to
320
million Indian Muslims, so forget about Bangladesh to give immigration
to
320
million Indian Muslims, since they are already overcrowded.
When
Pakistan came into existence due to blind emotions and blind super
religious craze and asked all Indian Muslims to migrate to Pakistan,
but very soon Qaid-e-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinah realized that this is not
feasible so he had to announce that they have enough immigrants and no
more immigrants from now. Maulana Abul Kalam Azad was super intelligent
and warned Muslims not to divide Muslims by demanding separate state,
now Indian Muslims are divided into three Indian, Pakistani and
Bangladeshi Muslims. Now divided Muslims of India, Pakistan and
Bangladesh are paying huge prices for that division. Now Muslims became
weaker and weaker because of Mega Division among us and they don’t
ponder on consequences and act like sheep following blindly. Vast
majority of them don’t use their brain. Although there are very few
intellectuals warning them about consequences but they act like blind,
deaf and dumb.
NO need to Label Halaal in front of Businesses BUT every Muslims in that region MUST know that they have 100% Halaal.
Please
try to understand consequences to save all, since saving a life is like
save whole world, which includes Mega Financial Losses due to our
foolishness. For those who are living in Non-Muslim Countries use your
foresighted wisdom and be moderate. You will sure find few of local
dresses which will cover your body modestly, e.g. in the west where
women were long skirts, long trousers, shirts, frocks, caps, hats and
western scarf etc. Make sure it is covering you modestly
NOT mini
or shorts or see through
rather
lose and long, but not for sweeping streets, since it may catch germs,
bacteria etc. which might ignite dangerous deceases but Prayers need
clean.
Cleanliness
is half of Faith/Eemaan (Hadeeth Sahi Muslim 223).
REMEMBER:
Best garment is garment of righteousness, (Ref:
Al_Quraan_007:026). The
Best
Example of Hijaab is what a Woman wears at Hajj,
i.e. with face open. Most IMPORTANT about Hijaab is that Allah has
ordered to wear Hijaab, (Ref: Al_Quraan_033.059, 024.030, 024.031).
In Hijaab women looks 10
times more beautiful. Be
modest, use your foresighted WISDOM & you might need to take
off headscarf to protect yourself. Saving your life is
MUCH more important than headscarf. In some region Hijaab could like O’ Bull come and hit me and is danger to your life, same is true for men having beard etc. Your Dress Code MUST be Modest according to the Region and Time, Prophet Muhammad (Peace-Be-Upon-Him) were wearing Local BUT Modest Dress NOT Dress of North Pole or South Pole.
Quraanic
NIQAAB only for Prophet’s Wives: Covering the Face/Veil/Mask only for
Prophet’s Wives:
The
eyes, nose, mouth and ears all require an exposed environment to work
as designed, which is why Allah has concentrated them all on the head.
This is why
some part of
the head (
eyes,
nose, mouth and ears) is 'designed' to be exposed and not
covered. The functions are identical on both men and women. Therefore
women too require
some
part of the head (
eyes,
nose, mouth and ears) to be free of obstruction - the
intended blueprint of Allah's master-plan, (Ref: Al_Quraan_033:032-33,
033:053).
UNJUST may happen among
DISBELIEVERS while living in a joint family system, which may cause
Allah’s anger as well. Wish you all the best, AMEEN.
Remember:
Muslims and Muslimahs are Auliyas (Protectors) to each other. The
direction of the Quraan and Prophet Muhammad (Peace-Be-Upon-Him) is to
be in the middle and be moderate to save yourself and your loved ones.
Be modest, use your foresighted
WISDOM & you might need to take off headscarf to protect
yourself
due to Danger of Death, Physical / Verbal Abuse, Job Losses, Huge Fines
to put you in MEGA Financial Crisis and might end up on the street etc.
Those who say keep
wearing Hijaab even in danger,
ask them to put
billion dollars in your bank account first, because if you
fall in trouble no one will come and help you. Think if
100
million Muslimah fall in trouble in all Non-Islaamic state then who can
pay multi trillion dollars for all Muslimah for their head scarf
every
day.
Don't
get bankrupt foolishly. BE CAREFUL, all the best, AMEEN.
Be
Moderate, be Modest, be Tolerant and use your foresighted WISDOM to
Adjust Yourself according to Region and Time, BUT keep your Eemaan safe. All the best, AMEEN.
