[LEFT][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=red][B]Word of love to our young sister[/B][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[B][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=#ff0000][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/B]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=darkgreen]May Allah be our witness to the degree with which we worry about you from the punishment of Allah, the All-High. May He be our witness to the degree with which we care about saving you from any danger that you might face in this life and in the Hereafter. This worry and care is the duty of any devout Muslim to his brothers and sisters.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=darkgreen]Among these dangers that face our uncovered sisters-sisters without hijab- in this life and in the Hereafter is what the Prophet (bpuh) said, which al-Hakim reported: [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/LEFT]

[CENTER][FONT=Arial][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=red]سيكون في آخر أمتي رجال يركبون السروج كأشباه الرجال ينزلون على أبواب المساجد نساؤهم كاسيات عاريات على رؤوسهن كأسنمة البخت العجاف ، العنوهن فإنهن ملعونات.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/FONT]

[LEFT][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=red]“At the end of time (when the time of Judgment Day draws near), there will be in my people men who ride their saddles looking like masculine women (effeminate men). They will dismount at the doors of mosques, while their women are wearing clothes as if they are not dressed (immodestly dressed). On [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=red]their heads are like unto the humps of thin camels; damn them, for they are damned (by Allah[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=red]).”[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=#ff0000][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=darkgreen]Dearest uncovered sister, do you know the meaning of “damnation”? To be damned is to be deprived of the mercy o Allah, the All-High. Even though Allah is most merciful and His mercy encompasses everything, yet in the above mentioned hadith, the Prophet (bpuh) ordered every Muslim to damn this type of women, who seems to be dressed but their modesty is revealed. That is why they are termed as if they are nude (“not dressed”).[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=darkgreen]In another hadith the Prophet (Blessing and peace be upon him) is reported to have said:[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=#006400][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT] [/LEFT]
[RIGHT][FONT=Arial][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=red]صنفان من أهل النار لم أرهما ، قوم معهم سياط كأذناب البقر يضربون بها الناس ، ونساء كاسيات عاريات مميلات مائلات رؤوسهن كأسنمة البخت المائلة لا يدخلن الجنة ولا يجدن ريحها ، وإن ريحها لتوجد من مسيرة كذا وكذا .[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=#ff0000][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT] [/RIGHT]
[LEFT][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=red]“Two types of Hell dwellers I did not see. People with whips like unto the tails of cows with which they hit (other) people. And women who are wearing clothes as if they are not dressed (immodestly dressed), bent and cause others to bend, their heads are like unto the crooked humps of camels. They (these women) do not enter Paradise and do not get its scent. Verily its scent is smelt from a distance of such and such (a very far distance).”[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=#ff0000][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=navy][U]This hadith contains a detailed description of this type of women[/U][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=navy]:[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=navy] [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=darkgreen][FONT=Calibri]A- [/FONT]She wears some clothes, but she is almost naked since she exposes most of her body (or at least enough to excite men’s desire). She either:[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=darkgreen][FONT=Calibri]- [/FONT]Exposes her legs, thighs, or bosom,[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=darkgreen][FONT=Calibri]- [/FONT]Or, wears transparent clothes that clearly demonstrate the shape of her body,[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=darkgreen][FONT=Calibri]- [/FONT]Or, wears such tight clothes that cling to her body like second skin, and leave little to the imagination.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=darkgreen]That is why she is as if she is naked, even though she is wearing clothes. [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=darkgreen][FONT=Calibri]B- [/FONT]She wriggles while waling (bent), an action that stirs desires (cause other to bend).[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=darkgreen][FONT=Calibri]C- [/FONT]Her head is higher than normal because of the latest hair styles, which make it look like the crooked hump of camels.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=darkgreen]This hadith states without doubt that this type of women is not only prohibited from entering paradise, but they do not even smell its scent.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=darkgreen]Dearest sister, all we want to befall you is Good. Our worry about you is what makes us pray, from the depth of our hearts, that Allah protects you from all evil; we pray to Allah to illuminate your heart with His light that never fades, to aid you with enough power with which you can overcome human and jinn Satans, and break their shakles; we pray to Allah to free you from the captivity of whims and desires, and to open to you the world of freedom, honour, integrity, and the world of purity and chastity. [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/LEFT]

[LEFT][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][B][COLOR=red]Do you guarantee your life span?[/COLOR][/B][/SIZE][/FONT]

[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=darkgreen]Dearest unveiled sister, when you abstained from covering up your modesty, under the pre**** of being “too young”, did you know (or were you informed) of the date and time of your death? Can you guarantee that you will live for additional few seconds?[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=darkgreen]If your reply is negative, (for we are sure that it will be), then keep in mind that death might come to you after one year, one month, one week, one hour, or even one minute! As long as we do not know the time of our death, then any of the above is probable.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=darkgreen]Dearest sister, death does not come to the old and sick only; it touches the old, the sick, the young, the healthy, and even the suckling infants. Living examples from every day life are plenty. [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/LEFT]

[U][FONT=Simplified Arabic][SIZE=4][COLOR=#000080][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/U]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][FONT=Simplified Arabic][COLOR=green]A friend of mine told me the following story: [/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][FONT=Simplified Arabic][COLOR=green]I do not know how to start to tell this story that drastically changed my life. Frankly, at first I hesitated about divulging it. However out of my feeling of fear of Allah, the All-High, and to warn my brothers and sisters who do not heed the wrath of Allah, I decided to tell it.[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][FONT=Simplified Arabic][COLOR=green]We were three companions, our common denominators were impetuousness and vanity. We were three human companions, and Satan was our fourth![/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][FONT=Simplified Arabic][COLOR=green]Our pastime used to picking up gullible girls by sweet talking them, and taking them to isolated farms. Over there, they see us as we really are: human wolves with no hearts or feelings, who do not heed their tears and pitiful begging![/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][FONT=Simplified Arabic][COLOR=green]That was how we spent our lives; farms, camps, cars, and beaches. Until that unforgettable day! As usual we went to a farm where everything was prepared; a prey for each one of us, the damned drink, and the nice atmosphere. One thing we have forgotten: food. After a while one of us went to buy dinner. When four hours passed and he did not return, I was worried about him, so I rode my car, and went looking for him. On my way I saw a car that had met an accident; it was turned over on its side, while flames were shooting over it. Getting nearer to the car, I discovered that it was my friend’s car. I parked my car, and ran like hell trying to save him from the burning car. When I arrived I found out that half his body has charred, while he was still alive. I pulled him out and laid him on the side of the road. Within minutes he opened his eyes, and shouted: “The fire, the fire.”[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][FONT=Simplified Arabic][COLOR=green]I talked to him trying to soothe him, and promised to get him to the nearest hospital as quick as possible. He replied with a weak crying voice: ‘It’s no use. I will not make it.’ Tears blurred my vision of my friend dying in front of me. Suddenly he cried: ‘O what shall I tell Him? What shall I tell Him?’ I asked him: ‘What will you tell whom?’ He answered in a deep faraway voice: ‘Allah’.[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][FONT=Simplified Arabic][COLOR=green]Panic struck me when all of a sudden he let out a long shriek, after which he died.[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][FONT=Simplified Arabic][COLOR=green]That picture never left my mind: my dying friend burning up while shrieking: ‘What shall I tell Him? What shall I tell Him.’ Until finally one day, while I was lying in bed trying to sleep and the picture of my ding friend in my mind, I heard the Call for Fajr prayer commencing with:[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][/LEFT]

[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][FONT=Simplified Arabic][COLOR=green]I felt as if the caller was addressing me alone calling for me to abandon my way of life, to close the curtain on a dark chapter of my life, and to start a new one following the path of guidance and light. That was when I performed ‘ghusl’ to cleanse my body, and I turned back to Allah in repentance to cleanse my soul.[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][FONT=Simplified Arabic][COLOR=green]I always thank and praise Allah, Who no one else deserve to be thanked, for from that point onward in my life, I am a changed person. I always perform my religious duties, and I am planning to perform ‘Umrah and Hajj. Who knows when I might die?[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT]

[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][FONT=Simplified Arabic][COLOR=green]Another friend who is working as a member of the highway patrol told me following: [/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][FONT=Simplified Arabic][COLOR=green]I spent my entire school years with my parents in a decent pious atmosphere. Whenever I came back from a long night out, I used to hear the prayers of supplication of my mother, and the voice of my father in his long night prayer – Tahajjud. I used to wonder about my father’s devotion and persistence and the length of his Tahajjud, especially during the long nights of winter when sleep is the sweetest. What I did not know then, that THAT was the oasis of relaxation of the believer, and that the Tahajjud is the prayer of the chosen God, who abandon the sweetness of their beds to talk to their Lord.[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][FONT=Simplified Arabic][COLOR=green]In our line of duty, me meet all kinds of horrible endings of the lives of men. In most cases we reach the parties that are involved in bad accidents, to find them either dead or unconscious. In few cased to we see them in their last moments, while they are actually dying.[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][FONT=Simplified Arabic][COLOR=green]I have witnessed two particularly bad accidents. The first one involved two men, whom we – my partner and I – pulled out of a car in a state of semi consciousness. My partner was a pious man. When he saw that these two men are definitely dying, he repeatedly asked them to pronounce the Shahada but to no avail. Shahada is saying: I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, and that Muhammad is His slave and messenger. Sadly, all they did was to blab about their work, and to sing, until they were exhausted, and finally died.[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][FONT=Simplified Arabic][COLOR=green]The second one, which happened quite some time later, involved a young man who was repairing his tire. While doing that he was badly hit by a speeding car. When we picked him up, his clothes were covered with blood, his limbs were almost torn apart, and he was assuredly going to die. On our way to the hospital, we were surprised to hear his voice reciting versed of the Holy Qur’an! The voice was so beautiful that it was almost angelic. Just before we reached the hospital, the victim lifted up his index finger and very clearly pronounced the Shahada after which he died.[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][FONT=Simplified Arabic][COLOR=green]My partner told me that the final moments of a human being in his life are probably the most important moments. These moments reflect his whole life! If he was good and pious, then he will be able to die mentioning the name of Allah and pronouncing the Shahada. Otherwise he will not be able to pronounce the name of Allah, and will be preoccupied with whatever earthly business that was repventing him from performing his duty towards Allah, the All-Merciful, Almighty.[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][/LEFT]

[FONT=Times New Roman][COLOR=green][SIZE=4]My wife told me the following real life story related to her by one of her friends.[/SIZE][/COLOR][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green]I did not care much about covering up my modesty, or performing my prayers in their proper times. On the other hand, my sister used to perform all her religious duties, and observe Tahajjud (mid- night prayer) and other nafl (optional) acts of worship. Many a night I woke up late and heard her voice reciting the Holy Qur’an, or performing prayers. I remember how several times she found me watching video movies, and reading Art magazines at the time of prayers, she smiled and said: Dearest sister, why are you wasting your time watching these low level movies instead of performing your duties?

[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=#008000][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green]She continued: Why don’t you heed Allah’s warnings? Don’t you believe that you are going to die? At that point I replied that I was still young and have all my life ahead of me, and that Allah is The Most Merciful, Most Beneficent. I can not forget her answer for the rest of my life; she said: Dearest sister, our life span is in the hands of Allah. Who can guarantee you that you are going to survive your current year? I am not sure that I will survive the next few seconds! My long trip may start very soon. You and I should be prepared for such a trip. Imagine what you will do if someone asked you to prepare yourself for a tourist trip abroad! The least that you will do is to make sure that you have a valid passport. Our long trip is no less important than such a trip. In fact it is the most important trip we will ever encounter. I started weeping then, and asked her to stop scaring me about her tales of death; was it not enough that I was scared of the dark? She would then try to soothe me and would say: I am not trying to scare you; all I want you to do is to remember that we are all leaving sooner or later. Remember that our ultimate destiny is either hell or heaven, and remember the saying of All-High:[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/LEFT]

[LEFT][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=5][B][COLOR=red]Seventh dubiosity[/COLOR][/B][/SIZE][/FONT][/LEFT]

[LEFT][B][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=navy]The is not covering up one’s modesty, it is merely the latest fashion in clothing[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/B]
[B][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=#000080][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/B]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green]Some of our virtuous sisters who do not cover their modesty, repeat the claim that there is no real fear of Allah in wearing what would cover up a woman’s modesty. They claim that it is merely the latest fad in designer fashions. They even point out to the acts of some of our sister who war such clothes but do not have the fear of Allah in their hearts. So, they conclude, why should I wear these clothes IF this was the reason behind wearing them? [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green][U]Before we tackle this dubiosity, we have to list the different types of the covered – veiled – women:[/U][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[COLOR=blue][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR]
[COLOR=blue][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4]1.[/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR][COLOR=blue][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4]The one who covers up her modesty in order to hide some bodily flaws.[/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue]2.The one who covers up her modesty hoping to get married, because most young men are looking for such a girl as a wife.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue]3.The one who hides behind her clothes in order to commit acts and deeds which Allah has prohibited. By wearing clothes which cover up her modesty, she keeps suspicion away, and gains the trust of her parents. That will give her the privilege of going wherever she pleases without anybody questioning her or doubting her motives.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue]4.The one who covers up her modesty because IT IS the latest fashion. This type of veil is known as “The French Veil” it is the type of the so called “Shari’ah clothes” through which a look of hair is visible, the neck is not covered, or the dress covers half the leg only. This type of clothes could be quite tight clearly outlining the contours of the body, or it could be transparent outlining the body behind it no matter how wide it is. To complete the fashion, the face is normally covered with make-up, and perfume is used in abundance so that wherever this woman goes, the roads and pathways are full of her scent.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue]Such a woman has rejected what Allah, the All-High, has ordained, and accepted what morals the likes of Dior, Valentino, St.Laurent, Chanel, Cartier, and other infields have ordained and assigned to their orders a higher priority over the orders of Allah.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue]5.The one who covers up her modesty – put on hijab – due to dress against her will pious parents and family. She wears this type of dress against her will, but she is worried that if she did not wear this type of dress then her family will be upset, and consequently she will be harmed. This type of women takes off everything once she is sure that the eyes of her guardians are not upon her; she neither believe nor is convinced of covering up her modesty.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green][COLOR=blue][/COLOR][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green][COLOR=blue]6.The woman who wears the true religious Shari’ah dress, which properly covers up her modesty, out of faith and conviction. In doing so, she is seeking only the approval of Allah Alone, and no other mortal. This woman commits herself to the following Shari’ah characteristics of her dress code[/COLOR]:[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]

Eighth dubiosity
 

[LEFT][COLOR=red][FONT=Times New Roman][FONT=Simplified Arabic][SIZE=5][COLOR=red][B]Eighth dubiosity:[/B][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/FONT][/COLOR]
[B][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][FONT=Simplified Arabic][COLOR=navy]Covering up means the prevention of make-up and elegant dresses [/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][/B]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][FONT=Simplified Arabic][COLOR=navy]This one also falls under the categories of whims and desires rather than a dubiosity. The Question that comes to mind immediately when faced with this desire: To whom do you want to wear make-up, elegant dresses, and turn yourself into a dazzling display?[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][FONT=Simplified Arabic][COLOR=navy]If the answer was, I wear my make-up to beautify myself, so that everybody would admire my figure and beauty.[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][FONT=Simplified Arabic][COLOR=red]Do you accept EVERYBODY staring at your beauty?[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][FONT=Simplified Arabic][COLOR=red]Do you accept to be a piece of merchandise examined by the mean and the noble?[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][FONT=Simplified Arabic][COLOR=red]Do you accept to hand over your body to the eyes of the human wolves to feast upon?[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][FONT=Simplified Arabic][COLOR=red]Do you accept to be THAT cheap?[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][FONT=Simplified Arabic][COLOR=navy]If you do, then you should know that Allah, the All-High, does not accept, and He considers you much more precious than what you consider yourself.[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][FONT=Simplified Arabic][COLOR=navy]Dearest sister, if you are beautifying yourself for your husband, or your women friends, then that is acceptable by our religious standards. However you should remember that the modesty of women in front of other women is from the navel to the knees.[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT]
[B][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][FONT=Simplified Arabic][COLOR=red][U]A practical example[/U][/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][/B]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][FONT=Simplified Arabic][COLOR=navy]Dearest Sister: Visualize in your mind’s eye how the client examines a product which he/she wants to purchase. When he is satisfied, he asks the saleman to give him a brand new one which has never been used before. Contemplate this carefully, and you will realize how precious you are in the balance of Allah and in the eyes of men when you cover up what Allah ordered you to hide.[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][/LEFT]

Ninth dubiosity

[B][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=navy]Veil reduces society’s productivity by half[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/B]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green]This dubiosity is promoted by secular oriented people. They claim that veiling women would unemployed half of society, because Islam orfers women to stay at home.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green][B]For this dubiosity there are several counter arguments:[/B][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue]1.Islam basically requests women to stay at home, in accordance with Allah’s order: [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/LEFT]

[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue]How can anybody claim that this is an insult to women and a cancellation of her productivity? Is it not the best employment of her power[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue]?[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue]2.Islam considers raising children and teaching them the proper manners one of the most important duties of a woman. International and local statistics indicates clearly that one of the major causes juvenile delinquency is the break-up of homes and insufficient parental care.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue]3.Islam did not ordain women to support themselves or their families. In fact it is the duty of a man to upkeep his family and his wife. Consequently, the natural order of things is for a man to go to work, and for a woman to be free to perform a much more important task than work outside the home: namely raising generations through whom societies exist and prosper. [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue]4.Islam takes great pains to protect society from collapse. Mixing men with women is the source of problems that expose women to danger and weakens society. This mixing will preoccupy single men and women in acts and deeds that will not benefit society at all. When this mixing is coupled with women openly displaying their make-up and beauty, single men and women will indulge in acts that will destroy the very fabric of society. [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue]5.Islam does not prohibit women from work. In fact it is the duty of a women to work and be active in certain fields that society requires. Society will be better off when these fields requiring one person to expose himself or herself to another are occupied by a person of the same sex, such as gynaecologist, mid-wife, teacher, X-ray specialist, etc.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue]6.Moreover, when necessary, Islam does not prohibit a woman from work as long as she adheres to the Shari’ah rules. These rules include:[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/LEFT]

Tenth dubiosity

[SIZE=4][COLOR=navy][B][FONT=Times New Roman][/FONT][/B][/COLOR][/SIZE]
[SIZE=4][COLOR=navy][B][FONT=Times New Roman]Veil is uncivilized [/FONT][/B][/COLOR][/SIZE]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green]It is claimed that the outward appearance of the veil is an aspect of a backward society and is uncivilized. For what is the meaning of these moving black tents and these crows? Is it not a reversal to primitive societies?[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[B][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=navy][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/B]
[B][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=navy]Misleading nomenclature[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/B]
[SIZE=4][COLOR=green][FONT=Times New Roman][/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE]
[SIZE=4][COLOR=green][FONT=Times New Roman]This is a fallacious dubiosity in itself. Progress is not measured by outward appearances, such as clothes, buildings, or ornamentation! Anyone who measures progress with these superficial measures is either biased or intentionally unfair.[/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green]Civilization is a word describing the total characteristics, behavior, and morals of nation. The superficial appearances are only partial results of any culture and not the reasons which created it.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/LEFT]

[LEFT][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][B][U][COLOR=red]Practical examples[/COLOR][/U][/B][/SIZE][/FONT]
[B][U][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=#ff0000][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/U][/B]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green]A visitor to the United States, for example, can clearly see the importance which that society gives to personal freedom. They worship personal freedom to such an extent that they built a statue especially to emphasize the importance they give to freedom. Everyone there respects personal freedom, whether ruler or ruled. Anybody could criticize anybody else regardless of his social status or financial power, without fear or worry.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green]That was why the U.S. became the leader of the western world; not only due to their degree in technological advancement, but due to the human concepts which are valued by that society, and the governments consider themselves as guardians of these concepts. Governments in the U.S. have risen and fallen in accordance to the degree which they respect and apply these concept.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green][COLOR=red][/COLOR][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green][COLOR=red]Another example[/COLOR] is any Western European country. When you go to a bus stop in those countries, you find a schedule of arrivals and departures of bused for the whole week, which depicts the exact time of arrivals and departures of each but. “Promptness”, or the respect of the value of time, is an important social value in those societies. If a citizen of those countries arrived at a bus station, and the bus was delayed for few minutes, then complaints of all kind will bombard the responsible person. This person might be fired from his job, and the incident might lead to a public uproar. The respect of the value of time and “Promptness” is a valued concept in that society, and therefore it is a gauge of its culture, and not only the technology which they posses.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green]In comparison, our societies (in the Muslim”Third World” ) are considered backward societies, not only because we do not posses the technical know how, but because we gave up our principles and values which originate from our great religion. Our societies are considered among the most unjust societies in which basic human rights are missing, chaos is prevalent, other people’s opinions are not respected, dictatorship is the norm, and other cultural values are not respected. Consequently commitment to the true Islamic Shari’ah veil is considered a forward step on the road to build a true culture, since [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]

[U][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue]First:[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/U]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green]The basic concept here is that obeying Allah has priority over obeying any other human being whoever he might be. Next, parents have the right of obedience immediately after Allah, the All-High and Almighty, unless they order their children to perform an act of disobedience.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[U][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/U]
[U][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue]Second:[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/U]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green]Disobeying the (legal) guardian in order to obey Allah is considered as direct invitation to the guardian, and as such is one of the acts that gets the slave nearer to Allah.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]

[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green]In most cases the guardian, whether a parent or a husband, will ultimately yield to the will of the person whom he is responsible for, especially when he sees the latter’s persistence. Following are some Fatwa – Islamic rulings, concerning this subject:[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green][U]The first question is answered by Shaykh Ibn Baz:[/U][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]

For example the mother is requesting her daughter to uncover her modesty – i.e., unveil herself, and display her make-up and beauty. Moreover the mother is claiming that wearing dresses which cover modesty is a myth which has no place in the practical reality of Islam! She also requests her daughter to attend mixed parties, and she gets very upset when she sees her daughter covered in accordance with the Shari’ah dress code[/COLOR].[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green]A: You don’t obey a creature whether he is a father, mother or otherwise, when he/she is ordering an act of disobedience. It has been narrated in the authentic hadith, that the Prophet (Blessings and peace be upon him) said:[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/LEFT]

[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green]The matters which the mother of the questioning woman is requesting her daughter to perform are acts of disobedience towards Allah. Therefore she (the mother) is not to be obeyed, in what she is requesting her daughter to do.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green][U]The second question was answered by Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen.[/U][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]

[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green][COLOR=red]Q:[/COLOR] [/COLOR][COLOR=red]The top authorities in my Muslim home town have ordered all women to take off the clothes which confirm to the Islamic code of dress especially the head cover.

[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green]If you contemplate this verse you would see that Allah has repeated the word obey twice; once while commanding the obedience of Allah, and the second time while advising the obedience of His apostle. He did not repeat this order for the third time when mentioning those “charged with authority”. This indicates that obedience of the legal guardians (Men/women with authority), should be linked to the obedience of Allah and His Messenger. From this follows that if the orders of men/women with authority are contradictory to the orders of Allah and His Messenger, then they forfeit their right of obedience from their subjects. And remember, the renowned hadith of the last Prophet (Blessings and peace be upon him),[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]

[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue]5.Do not try to discuss or display your beliefs from a superior point of view, or using the instructor’s method. You should rather offer your beliefs as a student who is seeking knowledge and information, and from the point of view of the person who is worried about the other person. That is especially true when dealing with your parents; in general, parents do not like to be treated in a superior way by their children.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]

[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=5][COLOR=red][B]Epilogue[/B][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green] When the infidels – the disbelievers – conquered us for some time, wars of independence raged throughout the occupied Muslim territories. When the conquerors found out that they were paying very heavy price for keeping us under their influence by using military force, they decided to change their tactics. The imperialist governments discovered that direct military conflict would only increase their losses, and fan the flames of resistance to a higher crescendo.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green] Consequently, to cut down their losses, the imperialists decided that the best way to keep our Muslim societies under their influence was to abandon the military conquests, and to concentrate on cultural invasion. To achieve their goals, they targeted our sons- the young generations – and enticed them to follow their lead. There they succeeded in creating a group of elite that would be in actuality the slaves of the invaders, and the executors of their will.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green] Sadly enough they succeeded in their aim, and their major trophy was the Muslim woman. They wanted her to be the replica of their women; to adopt boyfriends, compete with men, and unveil her charm, beauty and make-up. They succeeded in inviting our women to swim half naked side by side with men. To attain their goal, they enlisted an army of writers, artists, actors, and actresses. They enlisted the help of TV series, missionaries, newspapers, magazines, clubs and societies.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green] They exerted a powerful effort, which ultimately succeeded in enslaving our countries to their will without deploying a single soldier. They achieved that by spreading corruption, and destroying our moral values which emanate from our Just religion.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green] The scenes that we observe nowadays of unveiled women making dazzling displays of themselves is the result of this cultural invasion which started from the time of the collapse of the Ottomon Caliphate – Khilafah al-‘Uthmaniyah and is still continuing, without abating its fury, until now.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=green] [COLOR=red]Dearest sister[/COLOR], it is your duty to do your best to try to revive our own true customs and habits. You have to do your best to try to put an end to the bleeding of our moral values, to be truly free, independent and honourable.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/LEFT]
