The reason for why Muslim women are asked to wear Hijab
is to hide thoseattributes that men find so entrancing. I, even before I became
a Muslim Believer, used (and still do) find such respect in looking and being
around Muslim woman wearing Hijab* as all those humanly desires and wants,
(sexually and emotionally) are removed automatically, thus leaving you talking
and mixing with an individual person, not just a woman. *You may have seen on
television Muslim women whom are treated so horribly by either their Husband or
men around their community... i.e. not being aloud to come out on the open
streets alone, wearing clothing that covers all their body, thus only exposing
their eyes, being stoned to death, having acid thrown on them, being beaten
being made to stand behind their Husband at a distance when going places and
being forced to make love to their Husbands. Woman are to be respected, most
importantly your Mother, she is the next most important figure under Allah (SWT)
as she went through the tremendous pain of giving birth to you, she gave suck to
you, she gave up part of her life for you and she brought you up, thus providing
for you to give you Security and Love whilst you grew up and matured.
One should never question their Parents, nor should you
ever raise their voice or hand to them neither, regardless of whether you feel
they are right or wrong, you should hold your feelings and anxieties to yourself
and if you need to talk about it, talk to someone of your own age and wisdom. It
is never good to back-bite your Parents, Family, Friends and Associates, even
those whom are known enemies to you, as you never know whom Allah (SWT) will put
you together with, they may end up being your friend or Lover/Wife of Husband.
This is merely a personal conflict with the individual
whom is causing this pain and suffering on these woman. Also in some cases, like
when the woman is "made to" stay off the streets, wear full body Hijab and not
associate with others, this is a Cultural concern/issue* which has nothing to do
with what is asked of in the Muslim's "Five Pillars of Islam" *Realistically
this issue would be a conflict between the Husband on the Wife, through maybe
jealousy.
Well, the Muslim woman in Islam is recognized as being a very
respected part of Islam for their role in it. A Muslim man is to always provide
and take constant care of his Wife and Children, the Muslim Woman is to have the
highest of respect given, as she is the one whom both males and females
originate from, with Allah's guidance. Men and women have been created to
complement each other, we cannot live without each other for long, we have to
have each other to have that strength intact, we each hold strengths that the
opposite sex needs for survival, plus we hold weaknesses that the other sex can
help with. Muslims do not believe in having pre-marital relationships
(boyfriend/girlfriend) as this only causes heartbreak and confusion within ones
soul, nor do we believe in making love before marriage. Just look at how many
woman and men are having children that they do not really want or can take care
of, thus providing the child(ren) with the correct amount of Love and Security
that one needs for a good life.You are having young girls having babies, this is
not what is supposed to be happening here.
