Hijab-The Veil

Hijab-The Veil

“The test of a true Muslim’s mind is that it is always, and to all intents, strictly obedient to the Will of Allah, is constantly afraid of behaving in a manner which is apt to displease Him resulting in the withdrawing of His Grace.”

Hijab is dignified, not dishonored, noble, not degraded, liberated, not subjugated, purified, not sullied, independent, not a slave, protected, not exposed, respected, not laughed at, confident, not insecure, obedient, not a sinner, a guarded pearl. In Islam every woman is a jewel and when she respects herself enough to preserve her beauty for herself and her loved ones, a Muslim lady knows her power and her value she rejects being objectified by a society which does not value her.

Allah has commanded us with every action that is good for us and prohibited us from performing every action that is bad for us.

The Beauty Of Hijab.

*You please Allah. You are obeying the commands of Allah when you wear the Hijab and you can expect great rewards in return.

*It is Allah’s protection of your natural beauty. You are too precious to be “on display” for each man to see.

*It is Allah’s preservation of your chastity.

*Allah purifies your heart and mind through the Hijab.

*Allah beautifies your inner and outer countenance with Hijab. Outwardly your Hijab reflects innocence, purity, modesty, shyness, serenity, contentment and obedience to your Lord. Inwardly you cultivate the same.

*Allah defines your femininity through the Hijab. You are a woman who respects her womanhood. Allah wants you to be respected by others, and for you to respect yourself.

*Allah raises your dignity through the Hijab. When a strange man looks at you, he respects you because he sees that you respect yourself.

*Allah protects your honour 100% through your Hijab.

*Allah gives you nobility through the Hijab. You are noble not degraded because you are covered not half open.

*Allah demonstrates your equality as a Muslim woman through the Hijab. Allah bestows upon you equal worth as your male counterpart, and gives you a host of beautiful rights and liberties.

*Allah defines your role as a Muslim woman through the Hijab. You are someone with important duties. You are a reflection of a woman of action not idle pursuits. You display your sense of direction and purpose through your Hijab.

*Allah expresses your independence through the Hijab. You are stating clearly that you are an obedient servant of the Greatest Master. You will obey no one else and follow no other way. You are not a slave to any man, nor a slave to any nation. You are free and independent from all man-made systems.

*Allah gives you the freedom of movement and expression through the Hijab. You are able to move about and communicate without fear of harassment. Your Hijab gives you a unique confidence.

*Allah wants others to treat you, a woman, with kindness. And the Hijab brings about the best treatment of people towards you.

*Allah wants your beauty to be preserved and saved for just one man to enjoy – your husband.

*Allah helps you to enjoy a successful marriage through wearing Hijab. Because you reserve your beauty for one man alone, your husband’s love for you increases, he cherishes you more, he respects you more and he honors’ you more. So your Hijab contributes to a successful and lasting marriage relationship.

“Their reward is with their Lord: Gardens of Eden underneath which rivers flow wherein they will dwell for ever; Allah is pleased with them, and they are pleased with Him; this is (in store) for whoever fears his Lord.” (Surah -Bayyinah 98:8)
