Would you marry a niqaabi?

[muslimahk]

Salaam all,

was just wondering the number of brothers on here that would marry a niqaabi given the chance? or it may be not the case.

Ws,

given the chance, some of the brothers here would marry anything remotely female :rolleyes:

so the answer to your question is probably many. Any reason why you ask?

[dudette]

wasalam,

i know i'm not a brother, but if i was i'd love to marry a practising niqaabi sister...
but a sister inshaAllah i hope to wear niqaab...near future inahsaAllah...

If the Sister who steals my heart is a good Muslim then I wouldnt mind whether she were a Hijabi or a Niqaabi, as long as she is a good Muslim and praticing Sister then what she chooses to wear is her call and not mine.

salaam,

i knew of a simmilar situation where a brother wanted to marry a niqaabi sis but on the condition she took her niqaab off!

i dont know if she agreed

But being a Niqaabi Sister was surely what first attracted him to her in the first place no?

I can't get my head round that one :confused:

lol i not long ago had a brother propose who was totally againts having any wife of his wear a niqaab a hijab but not a niqaab, i wear mine when i want 2 not on a daily basis so it wasnt an issue really but the fact that he viewed it in a really unreasonable light, well guess who was out on the doorstep again in 5 minz flat?

If the Muslimah wears a niqaab i would not mind at all Insha'ALLAH. I would be abit worried for her though incase she is harrassed because of this (ALLAH Rehamkhareh). But yes Masha'ALLAH i dont mind at all... :)

I ask firstly outta interest but secondly becos one of my friends is finding it really difficult after 2 yrs of searching to find a brother who doesnt want her to compromise the niqaab.

interesting, I am surprised at that, from what I see niqabs are making a comeback, becoming more and more 'acceptable' in the Muslim community even if they're not in the wider world.

I mean, I know there are times when a niqab isn't suitable...for instance say you're going on a trek in the country or something, but they're one off events and their aren't many people around you at the time. If that's the sort of compromise then I think it's a reasonable one.

If by compromise you mean scrap it completely, then as I say, I'm surprised.

[attalib84]

As Salaamu Alaykum,

Alhamdulillah I've been a Madressah student for several years, finishing next year inshaAllah...I def. wouldn't mind marrying a practicing niqaabi Muslimah after I finish...only thing is I'm not sure how many there are in the U.S. where I'm from:(
InshaAllah it won't be a problem

[ImaanSeeker]

:salams

I'd marry a niqaabi. Provided that she is just as cognizant of the rest of her deen as she is with the aspect of hijaab.

Perhaps its a combination of that and the fact shes a white revert

[umm turaab]

SubhanAllah if a sister wears niqaab i believe its one of the most amazing things she could do and it takes a lot of courage, however wearing niqaab doesnt necessarily mean that a sister is practicing as her intentions n heart shud be clear.

How does that make a difference?? If she's a niqaabi Alhumdulillah! And a revert? Double that. What is up with the guys in your area :confused:

forgive me for saying this - but I can understand restricting yourself to sunnis, (or shias), or to 'salafis'/'sufis' (whatever you care to define those as)... but I can't for the life of me understand why anyone would restrict themselves to one particular madhhab within Sunni Islam.

That's just asking for trouble.

[muslimahk]

guess its personal choice at the end of the day. i know shes open to brothers from other madhabs. Allahu Alim

[bint]

Joha it is not asking for trouble - if she is a follower of the ahnaf madhab maybe she wants to marry another that follows the same one? no? easier..more compatible..personal preference really.

Many people stay away from niqs because these so called men want to display their wives to the public.

That's just asking for trouble.

I dont know about other sisters but personally i would look for a husband that practiced the same madhab as me as it would just make life easier? Although ofcourse, if the brother is good enough, madhab shouldnt be a barrier.
And then again, this is just my own opinion :S

maybe, doesn't make much of a difference, okay, maybe you can't eat oysters and crab, perhaps there's a difference of opinion on some obscure divorce issue (not that you should be thinking about that :rolleyes:), and maybe you've gotta pray Asr at a later time

And that's all the important ones covered :p

But I see your point :)

[wifeseeker]

wud luv 2 marry a niqaabi (or a hijaabi 4 that matter.)
infact i wudn't marry a woman who didn't dress modestly in public.
niqaabi or hijaabi, alhamdulillah, as long as she's practising.
sum women seem 2 think its fashion.

For the most part, I'd agree. But why does anyone have to follow their spouse's madhaab? I'm not saying the husband should change madhabs for his wife, but why can't the woman follow her own madhaab and not that of her husband's?

as salamu alaikum,

i think part of the problem is that there has to be uniformity for the sake of the children. but to be honest, i don't see why it can't happen since the difference between the madhabs is small. For laymen, it wouldn't be a problem. But unconciously or conciously, the wife would take the madhab of the husband. For young couples, its more of a problem than mature couples because often with the youth you have issues of rebellious, uniqueness, etc. The wife would like to differentiate and keep hold of what she thinks is "her own identity" and the husband wouldn't really have any of it because he wants to enforce his male dominance. There's nothing wrong islamically with the latter, but there is something wrong with the former since the wife should be obedient to her husband. With mature couples, it's not much of a issue sicne they have more wisdom in mediating conflicts like that.

anyway lets get back to the topic inshaAllah.

sorry if i am going to give the impression that im ignorant or something but...
the wife should follow her husband...ok.
the wife would take the madhab of her husband...a madhab is not the deen!
i mean you acknowledged that the difference between the madhabs is small...
what i dont get, is why should the wife changed her madhab???
the four madhabs are all based upon the Qur'an and sunnah...where is the problem?

as salamu alaikum,

alhumdulilah, u do not give the impression of being ignorant. jazakallah for posing the question, as i'm sure it'll lead everyone to think more about this.

your question of where is the problem is already answered by your post. as you mentioend, i did acknowledge that the difference is small but small does not mean insignificant. something can be small but still matters. the amount of rakats in witr for example, or the way the salaat is performed, where is the hands held in qiyam, etc. But theres also other issues such as things that nullify your wudhu, the start of the asr prayer (hanafis start it later than the other 3 school), etc.

someoen correct me please,

as salamu alaikum

[UkhtAlMuslimeen]

:wswrwb:
i do see your point akhy. personally i think it comes down to how extreme you follow your madhab...
and as you mentioned above..for the sake of children. it's how you bring up these children that actually counts. my parents follow different madhabs..but obviously as its all down to the Qur'an and sunnah alhamdulilah they do not take it to an extreme....so i have not come out confused or anything alhamdulilah.
but like you said, it is personal preference...except i dont think brothers should expect their wives to be following the madhabs they do if she previously followed a different one.
but anyways...the discussion is niqaab...sorry to have diverted the topic.

That is very true. ANd Quite Ironic. I can sort of relate.

Why would any brother ask that of a potential spouse? Sisters wear niqaab out of choice and religious conviction. Any brother wanting to marry a pious lady must respect her the way she is.

Coming back to answering your main question, I can't say! I'm married already! :D

[-Fady-]

silly question, question should be...

would you marry a non-niqabi?

People have got scared after what happened with Misbah aka Molly. Her mom became the good muslim aswell, went on hajj and everything and then she became apostate and went back to her roots. Thats why people are scared of marrying a revert, cos she might go back.

Akhi, why shouldn't you be? A niqaab is a mere item of clothing, doesn't make the person under it a next level scholar or something, whose eminence would make you feel unworthy.

Ukthi. That is my worry. I know it's not good to think that way but when someone fears Allah :Swt: and has enough courage to cover up it makes you feel shy/deficient when you look at yourself, mistakes, etc. Doesn't someone who wears niqaab deserve someone just as pious?

The brothers who I know that look for/marry sisters in niqaab are mashallah excellent in character/ huffaaz/ or alim, etc.

Plus many sisters who wear niqaab also have mashallah very excellent parents who have a certain standard for the spouses of their daughters. That has been my perception.

the muslim (BRO and SIS) have to chose their partner in the factor of the DEEN { that is what important:up: & the will of our beloved prophet Muhammad :saws2: }
beauty is an important matter however the beauty of a muslim or a muslima who worship :allah: in the best he or she can is really a different level. ( Allahu ':Swt:' Aalam )

And we can just ask ALLAH to guide as in the right path, the path who mean to JANNAA(heaven).
Certainly the most perfect speech is the Speech of Allah and the finest guidance is the guidance of Muhammad sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam. The worst of affairs are those that are innovated into this religion as every innovation is misguidance and every misguidance is astray and every going astray leads to the Hell Fire.
AMEEN.

silly question, question should be...

would you marry a non-niqabi?

I don't the answers would change, as long as the sister is practicing I think the brothers would be happy,

[Metroid]

Salaam all,

was just wondering the number of brothers on here that would marry a niqaabi given the chance? or it may be not the case.

what is niqaabi?

[Kal-El]

Wearing the Niqaab nowdays doesn't ensure you to be perceived as more practising than one that doesn't wear the Niqaab. Ironically, Niqaabi sisters actually have a dark reputation in some corners

[ze leetle elper]

no :o

[Souljette]

Salamualikum,
ofcourse she'll let you see her face befo marriage what do u think u'll just marry her..and no niqabi's aren't like dat they don't say bidah every second their like normal human beings who follow the Quran and Sunnah but depends on the individual itself of what they believe..i'm a niqabi myself nd i don't even remeber sayin bidah lolz

[Joha]

please pardon my innocence but what is a shufti?

sorry, didn't see this post, hope you're still around!

shufti just means having a look, you'll recognise it as from the Arabic word for 'look/see'. Came into English through the military - was military slang and slowly became more widely accepted.

[Jaggz]

Ofcourse I would. Actually I would only marry a Niqabi. Having a pious wife is a must for any man.

But you can still be pious and wear Hijab cant you? :confused:

if you was pious you would understand that you should veil your body as well, meaning loose clothing or a jilbab. i've just recently started practising and wear the hijab and the jilbab. had a proposal and they said they were a practising family, but wanted a modern wife :confused: whats all that about.

I didn't generalise anything, if people can determine what slander is then I'd assume they know how to read a sentence. My second 'statement' said that Niqaabi's have a negative reputation in some corners; meaning some people have a bad perception towards them for some reason. That is a comment about some people's attitudes towards sisters who wear Niqaab, so please show me where I have insulted or generalised anything or you could both re-read my post and accept your misunderstanding and have the decency to apologise please

[Medievalist]

Kal-El: exactly what people are you talking about bro? If you talking about non-muslims then thats not really worth even mentioning, they have problems with a lot of the pure principles of the religion.

And if you're saying something else then please clarify. In my experience its the scarf brigade who are SOMETIMES percieved as undercover, the niqabi brigade for the time being are, in general, perceived as honourable and respectable.

Well, if you insist in knowing...

It's similar to what your saying. Some Muslim sisters and brothers have come across Muslim Niqaabi's who break the stereotype, or the expectation that if a sister can cover herself like that then she is practising, who lack shame and in essence cover their rather ludicrous behaviour. Although they never generalise or discriminate against sisters who wear Niqaab, there is a feeling amongst people that there is a certain level of hypocrisy in the act of wearing a Niqaab and being known as the type of girl - who gets into a car and changes into a revealing outfit, and changes back into a Niqaab before she enters her house. Suffice to say, they don't automatically assume a sister is a practising Muslimah just because she wears a Niqaab - as opposed to a Hijab - in fact, unfortunately their only experience in knowing Niqaabi's has been negative and the paradox has lead to a reputation.

For example, the question of - would you ever marry a Niqaabi could be asked to a brother who is looking for a practising Muslimah. But you'd be surprised to know how many times brothers are quick to remind you to never assume they're angels.

It's not ofcourse an attitude I share but it is to in some corners of society. Thinking the worst of specifically Niqaabis? That's an irony, hence my 'statement'.

Sorry, i agree wiv you....... i dnt wear the niqaab, but do see some sisters doing certain things. the sis just took it as an offense as to what u typed. but i put my hands up to my misunderstanding. happy? lol

[Medievalist]

I see. But I tihnk you're comments are specific to a few people who have had certain experiences. GENERALLY I think niqabis are still seen with some sense of legitimacy by the wider community. Although - I personally am in the group that you're going on about. I've seen too much to be naive, but still in general niqabis are more deeni than scarfys. ya get me? :coolbro:

[seven]

anyone of the opinion or feels that all or most niqaabis have a certain level of hypocrisy, is not someone whose opinion you would take seriously.... nor are their opinions even worth mentioning

[Kal-El]

Just another day a friend of mine who graduated said none of the Muslim girls in the class wore a Hijab or covered their hair, except one who was fully covered in a Niqaab yet she was known in the school to have slept with half of the male population there. Obviously what you wear, or don't wear, does not and should not state what type of person you are or what you do in your free time, but I think with some people seeing a sister who covers herself like that in public yet does things in private, kinda leaves a psychological impact on you because she'd be the last person you'd expect it from. This is why I said some people won't automatically assume your a practising Muslim regardless if you wear one or not, and wouldn't be so inclined to take you up on marriage - like any Muslim man would with a Niqaabi in general.

[imran1976]

Ofcourse they're specific to a group of people. There's a difference of not being naive, and there's a difference of being discriminatory in which these people are. It does not mean I agree with them, and I certainly didn't generalise it or slander Niqaabi's like one particular sister here believes. Personally I'm proud of sisters who cover up.

[Medievalist]

and what about the gyals who dont cover? have they slept with all the male population?

Personally these stories **** me off big time. If the woman is doing that then someone should go and give her a beating, seriously. I dont mind gyals sleeping around so much if they dress like slags, thats their life. But if they wanna dress like a muminah and then do that, then som1 guy should have the guts to give her two tight slaps.

and if its a slander - which Im more inclined to believe cos was your mate standing watching as she did this acts with "half the male population"?

but seriously if she was like that, snitch to her dad. I wouldnt have a problem doing that.

I don't really have an argument here, I was just saying there is an alternative viewpoint held by some people. The fact that its a minority isn't really relevant because it was just a point, not an argument, of the unfortunate irony thats seeded into our society. I have seen all types personally. Sisters who cover up and aren't daddy's little girl, shall we say, sisters who don't cover up but who any practising brother here would trip over to marry, and vice versa ofcourse. There's no particular group, everyone is different but I don't think anyone should judge a person on what they wear.

you may have heard the story about the colour of the dog that was with the people of the cave? (al-kahf) - it's about how such an insignificant issue about the colour of the dog led to muslims fighting amongst each other.

the colour of the dog was not worth mentioning... as it led to fitnah. likewise there are other issues that are not worth mention... like judgemental attitudes people have about if women that wear niqaab.

Telling stories about what your mate Batman said to Spiderman about what he did with the Superman’s sister the ‘Niqaabi’ in your Peter Pan world, doesn’t even come close to a justification.

Are you stupid? Where have I ever made derogative remarks about the Niqaab, and why would I knowing I am a Muslim? Do you even read my comments? I just said when someone asked me my opinion of Niqaabis that I'm proud when sisters wear them. I've never made a derogative remark, or made a baseless comment - the only comment from me, and about me, talking about the Niqaab is when I said I'm proud that sisters wear them so yet you again I have to ask you.

Are you stupid?

Who are you to accuse me and slander me so sensationally without even assumption, but probably just due to imagination, and then try to dismiss me when it was you who in the first place misunderstood my comment and quacked at me like a headless duck. You should have just accepted that you misread my comment if not apologise, but you seem to be missing a few screws up in that old machine of a brain of yours and yet again, almost comically, get up on a wet soap box preaching utter nonsense to me.

If you have something against me, make a point for which it doesn't involve you talking about Comic book characters in an infant-like attempt to wash me over.

At the end of the day, a niqabi is mashallah. A hijabi is mashallah, if they want to marry you it's mashallah! Just be happy someone wants to marry you and if you really want a niqabi but get a hijabi, then maybe you're righteous good deeds will rub off on her and she'll put it on.

The act of wearing a niqab is a noble one, and one that is only good.

well in itself, just cas they have niqab still someone can not want to amrry them, cas they still have personalities and everyone has a unique personality and might not match,

Yes, in itself it is good. Not saying the niqab magically makes a person good no matter what their other actions are.

But niqab wearing sisters in general are trying to make an effort to do good by wearing it to please Allah, it's not always an easy thing to do.

And of course you look at other things when looking for a spouse and not if she just wears niqab..

Do you think Umm ‘Umarah is going to waste her time trawling through your dumb posts to find specific posts where you have made those derogatory remarks in some underhanded form or other? you can blather on displaying your superhero one-upmanship, maybe until it’s time for you to open your cereal box in the morning

And you wouldn't have replied if you didn't KNOW it was YOU!

[Kal-El]

subhanAllah!! Whose dissing?!?! You go on and on about someone whose been sleeping around, subhanAllah, 'oh itn't not my opinion, its what people say!?!' SubhanAllah don't you have any Hayya?!? why even bring something as vulgar as that up?!? Are you feeling alright? subhanAllah, inna illahi wa inna illayhi rajioon. SubhanAllah dude, the messenger (saw) said:

subhanAllah seriously asses yourself, what good are you to the Ummah, and I don't mean this forum, I mean THE Ummah. There is more to life than fictional characters, and vulgar gossip.

And you wouldn't have replied if you didn't KNOW it was YOU!

This is the last time I'm going to repeat myself, for some reason we seem to have an epidemic of retardation all of a sudden from you and the other one. This whole accusation and slander thing has been blown out of proportion, fanned in the wind by Umarah's misunderstanding of my comment. She assumed that I joined in the thread to add something derogative. No. I read the thread in which people were emphasising how much deen a sister that wears Niqaab has, and thought it interesting to note that not everyone actually agrees with that, in essence, not everyone would marry a Niqaabi based on this assumption because some - though a minority - have a reputation towards them, a reputation that any decent person would realise is discriminatory and immature.

Brother Medievalist then asked me to expand on that point because he wasn't sure by what I meant, and so I gave him an example which was not gossip. I've no intention of spreading gossip, I'm not a 13 year old girl - I know of factual things that have happened and are known within the local community in regards to this particular girl.

In the midst in trying to explain my original comment and the reason I said it, and also fighting back the stupid slanderous claims (yes, wonderful irony isn't it) that it was my personal opinion, and that I have waged some kind of war on Niqaabi's in general - one persons misunderstanding went to 3 pages, in which incidentally I feel most who've read it understood where I came from.

Then you come running alone tripping over yourself echoing the same nonsense that had passed hours ago - yourself misinterpreting my character and my words and then proceeding to insult me based on a screen name like I'm an idiot and here I am again trying to teach you what has happened so far in this discussion, and yet again here I am wondering if you yourself are mentally challenged or just too blind or too emotional to read and understand a comment. I cannot for the sake of me understand myself, however, why grown adults consider it absolutely right to slander someone based on the claim they slandered another for no reason. The hypocrisy is both sad yet comical :rolleyes:

If people have misconstrued my comments originally, then I apologise but I explained them long before this 'debate' had started and yet its only been you, and Umarah, who choose to start a battle with me based on misinterpretations, refuse to accept they were wrong and amazingly set up a camp of defiance on quick-sand.

This whole debacle of a discussion has gone off-road. You claim, or assume, I hold these derogative opinions yet neither can prove that and instead the best you can do is make references to a comic book character to try and ridicule me. You may find it difficult to accept you were wrong after you've passionately tried to make a point, but if you and anyone else can be so passionate about the concept of being slanderous towards another Muslim - then I'd like to think that you both have enough deceny and sense in you to realise your futile hypocritical comments towards me, and initation of perosnal slurs, and can apologise and admit your own wrongs.

If you cannot, or will not, then Khalas.

P.S. Go easy on the exclamation key

[Kal-El]

My personal views are straight and clear cut, I do not believe anyone should be judged on what they wear or what they don't wear and I have never insulted anyone based on what they wear, let alone a Muslim for wearing a Niqaab. The point of reference in the example I gave about that particular girl was in regards to her character, not in regards to her attire, and how her behaviours in private contradict with the concept of fearing Allah (swt) in covering. I made that reference as an example of what fuels the notion that some have, to never assume a sister is a practising Muslimah just because she wears a Niqaab. There is no room for someone to misunderstand that and confuse it with my own views on the Niqaab in which I believe to be an honourable show of Imaan from a woman especially in modern society. I do not appreciate the accusation otherwise, nor am I impressed by what can only be described, in the most humble of terms, the sheer comical stupidity displayed here by two of sisters. And I say this all with my underwear on the inside, under my pants ;)

[tayfah-mansurah]

as long as a pretty face is under it. but i would probably worry about her going out alone, i heard stories and they are more likely to be harassed by idiots, black dress stands out too much.

lol, this is now reminding me of that incident in saudi, where man got in trouble for lifting his wifes veil to take a peek while she was sleeping

Salaam all,

was just wondering the number of brothers on here that would marry a niqaabi given the chance? or it may be not the case.

[Songbird]

Wearing a Niqaab is a sign of greater Imaan/Purity ...
Errr...no it isn't brother.

Iman/purity cannot be gauged by Niqab alone.

If it were, Allah swt Himself would tell us in the Qur'an.

Let's not sugar-coat things folks.

Only Allah swt knows who has the greatest Iman. Niqab or Hijab is not the indicator.

[Songbird]

So that's your criterion for a wife? A pretty face? Interesting.

What happens when the pretty face is not so pretty anymore?

Perhaps all those entrepeneurial lads out there could start something like a:

I'll leave her alone for now.

Maybe you two can talk in private about finding the perfect pretty spouse? And then perhaps the both of you can discuss what to do when the beauty fades?

Too bad for both of you that good looks don't last forever.

Oh, hold on...maybe that's why they invented paper bags? One for TM and one for MissN. His and Hers :inlove:

Now take it to pms and don't bother me anymore. It's like watching Play School for the young and hormonal.

[Miss-Neurofen]

Right ok... "you do not get..."

Prozac is for depression my dear, maybe you should start thinking of a new comeback, the same ol same ol does get rather boring after you used it a few times!

Maybe its you who needs to stop acting like a child!!! You're foolish to even suggest that physical attraction is not important in a marriage, a rather naive and childish comment id say... Yeah looks do not last forever, but there has to be a certain level of initial attraction.

Anyways i wonder why its hitting you so bad... Maybe its you who needs the paper bag after all :rolleyes:

[tayfah-mansurah]

hmm seems like you have grudge against pretty people :D stop acting like you own this forum lol. its in our nature to wind people up;) and respect your elders!!!!!

Only Allah swt knows who has the greatest Iman. Niqab or Hijab is not the indicator.

as salamu alaikum,

niqab or hijab is not an indicator? :confused:

lets try the opposite: are women who wear revealing clothes an indicator of anything?

as salamu alaikum

[Songbird]

as salamu alaikum,

niqab or hijab is not an indicator? :confused:

Wa alaikum salam,

No brother it isn't. Many prostitutes cover in Muslim countries. Do you then say these Muslimahs have the greatest Iman?

I know sisters here who don't pray, who swear *very* liberally and meet up with lads in a park very close to my house, late at night. They all wear Hijab too. Again, are they a better Muslimah than the one who doesn't cover, but prays and doesn't meet up with guys?

Again you're making the same mistake as many a brother [like in-exile] does: everything about a Muslimah is reduced to a piece of cloth. That is, you equate Hijab or Niqab with the level of piety: Niqabis being the most pious amongst all Muslimahs, and the non-covered sister, the lowest. Never mind intention [which is highly stressed throughout our Deen] because like I said earlier, even a prostitute in Saudi or Tehran dons a Niqab. Intention really doesn't come into it if I follow your way of thinking. So long as the act happens, khalas.

So again Belal: do you seriously believe that a sister's worth is encapsulated or defined merely by the covering of her face?

If you do, then a Niqabi who may spend her entire day gossiping or backbiting with friends on the phone is *still* better than any Muslimah who doesn't -- according to you guys -- merely because she covers her face. Correct?

[belal1]

as salamu alaikum,

ukthi I see what you are saying but I think that is a invalid way to look at this. First because an indicator doesn't mean anything definite but it simply shows which way one leans toward. For example a white guy could wear salwar kameez, it wouldn't mean the white guy is desi but that he has an affinity towards that culture. And even that may be untrue because it could just mean he has an affinity towards the clothes of that culture but not the culture itself.

similarly if a muslimah is wearing niqaab, it shows she's practicing part of her deen. It doesn't mean she is 100% pure of anything like you mentioned and i'm sure most of us agree that to be. However it does indicate she is practicing part of it. Whether she's being forced to do it by her parents like in some culture, or whether she's doing it out of pressure from the community, or even to hide herself while she does otehr things, is a totally different thign altogether. What we are talking about here is if wearing niqaab indicates something and in this regard it does indicate they are practicing part of their deen.

Now we can sit n argue about if a niqaabi who dates guys is worse than a non-covered muslimah dating guys, but I rather not get into that as the number of niqaabis who may be doing bad things is far less than the number of non-covered muslimahs doing such things. Besides that, the niqaab is sunnah and there is absolutelyl no benefit in putting it down in this manner.


as salamu alaikum

[Songbird]

OK Belal, but going back to what in-exile ORIGINALLY said, he said that a Hijabed/Niqabed Muslimah indicates Iman or piety. That is, the cloth is the indicator. Not the intention but the mere act of wearing it.

Don't you agree then, it *may* indicate she's practing but you cannot go so far as to say it indicates the level of Iman as only Allah swt is privy to whom amongst us is the most pious?

OK let me re-read what he said lest I've misunderstood.

[belal1]

as salamu alaikum,

regardless of how anyone else said it, to your question, yes i agree it only indicates she might be practicing but not show how high her imaan is. however, it does show she is willing to take a step further than just wearing hijab..and for the hijabi, that she's taking a step further than not covering at all. now that doesn't show how "high" the imaan is but just gives a reference for comparison sake.

as salamu alaikum

[bint]

Personally If I took my niqab off I would feel like I have been defeated by satan. So I would definitely clarify it as an indication of iman if that helps :)

Songbird one thing I wanted to point out what you said a few posts earlier on. You said that prostitutes cover themselves in other countries does that make them greater in eman what not. My answer to this is that I saw prostitutes in Dxb All they had on was the abayah and a sheila. Now if a muslim girl was supposed to don such clothing would that not indicate a level of eman and purity? Or is that ignored because some prostitute wears the same clothing in another country for a different purpose?

[Rosalie-Beauty]

I agree with sis Bint. In a Muslim country the majority of people dress with Islamic clothing. Thus, the prostitutes probably will too merely because it's what everyone else is wearing. It's something called conformity, but that's a differnt discussion. I think if we were to generalize, we (being sis Bint and bro Belal 1) could say that MOST women who wear hijab/niqabb are MOST LIKELY to be more religiously oriented than a woman who does not not cover. Of course there are exceptions, but if a man is looking for a spouse, he will probaby use these generalizations.
So lets us sisters just cover anyway :p

Oh man! This thread is BETTER than Kahiin to ho ga :D:D:D

[Reema]

This thread should be closed before it gets outta hand. You either choose to marry a niqaabi or you dont.

[muslimma]

Wearing the Niqaab nowdays doesn't ensure you to be perceived as more practising than one that doesn't wear the Niqaab. Ironically, Niqaabi sisters actually have a dark reputation in some corners


:up:

:start:

i dont think bros should marry, just on the basis that she is a niqaabi cos you also have to know about character etc....

... if that was all in check that the qustion would be 'why wouldn't you marry a niqabbi :scratch:'

[Phoenix CG]

[Medievalist]

it's a freaking war in here, talk about heat!

thats convenient cos you need a tan ;)

[Abu Mu'adh]

I believe in the saying 'if the label shows your intent then wear it'.

If the intention is to please Allah and his rasul (saw) then Masha'Allah, 2ndly as we can not see the intention of ones heart as to the reason a sister wears niqaab, as muslims we should think the best always and assume she is wearing to please Allah (swt) and not concern ourselves with 'oh but some Niqaabis do this & that, some bearded brothers do this & that so why bother wearing a beard or niqaab'' that's between them & Allah, because some people do certain things doesn't mean they shouldn't carry out other pleasing actions to Allah(swt). It's a bit like thinking oh I missed Fajr this morning, I won't bother praying the other 4 now.

OK let me re-read what he said lest I've misunderstood.


a woman who wears the hijab is abiding by a clear cut hukm of allah *swt*
a woman who does not wear the hijab is disregarding a clear cut hukm of allah *swt*...

now we dont know anything else about them, because we don't pry into their affairs etc so we assume the best for both of them... ie that both of them pray and fast etc.. but one covers and the other one doesnt... one has abided by allah *swt* command and it is not for us to judge her niyyah and one hasnt...

like i have said 101 times before

a woman who wears hijab etc may or may not be practicing
a woman who doesnt wear hijab is not practicing

that is a fact that cannot be denied

[NiqaaBi_InBlack]

i want to wear the niqaab, because it takes away attention, but my family.... well my sister is against it for some reason. can i ask why some sisters wear the niqaab? as my reason is that it takes away attention and also in a sense guards my modesty.


Assallaamu 3alaikum,

I just wanted to comment on the question ukht Sameena asked>>.Why some sisters wear niqaab,
I think the most important reason why I start wearing the niqaab was to please Allah, to do something extra to come closer to Allah.And we are able to do that in different ways voluntary fasts,nawaafiil prayers etc.So for me this was another way to earn hassanaat.Because I seriously need every little hassanaat I can get on the judgement day
And I dont think that because I wear a niqaab I'm better then a sister who wears the correct hijab and I could never judge a sister for not wearing a niqaab because maybe she's more loved by Allah then I am.So who am I to put myself above others.
So I simply did it because I felt I had to do this,and it's something between me and my Creator,and wearing a niqaab doesn't mean khalas I'm a mumina now no subhana'Allah I still have weak points and I still need to ask for forgiveness everyday for my shortcomings.
Because at the moment u think ur safe from hellfire because of the way u dress.is the moment shaitan tricked u.And kullu a3maallu bi niyaa>Every deed is for his intention,so also with wearing the niqaab on the day of judgement Allah will ask about our intentions.
And I think that at the moment I look in the mirror and I put my niqaab on and my thoughts are ' Yaa Allah led me amongst those who do the deeds sincerely for U, and Yaa Allah I thank u for giving me the gift to cover.Because verily this is a gift to me,and I'm not a gift to U. and I mention the du3aa: Yaa muqqalibul quluub thabat qalbi 3ala dienak (Ooh The Turner of the hearts make my heart firm upon ur deen)

I realize that Allah is able to turn my heart, and I realize that I'm just nothing but a servant who does this hoping Allah will have mercy upon me.

I beg your pardon?
Perhaps you haven't realised it yourself but you always seem to be at the forefront of maligning niqaabis, all because of what 'some' fabled niqaabis do.

You can call it "an alternative viewpoint that some people have" or whatever i don't care, the fact of the matter is that when you continuously bring up this 'alternative viewpoint' you tarnish the image of all niqaabis, just because some muslims drink wine does that now warrant a question like "would you marry a muslim?", that is exactly what your posts appear like to the rest of us, which is why people say you're insulting niqaabis.
