:salams I avoid those types of hijabs because colourful and decorative hijabs like those sort of defeat the purpose of what a hijab is. It isn't meant to bring attention to yourself, but to keep attention away from you. The second one really irks me the most because it hardly looks like a scarf.

i have to disagree with u there sis, i mean, with so much diversity nowadays (especially during summer), dull colours such as black/ grey are more likely to stand out when in a crowd so ur better off going for these types of colours/ patterns since u will then blend in and not become centre of attention/ focal.

and Allah swt knows best.

Now i have to disagree with YOU (lol ;)) and i agree with Sister-Ameena*. does it mean that u shud lose what hijab is really about just coz u will stand out from the crowd? A muslim/muslimah will (or should) stand out fromn the crowd seen as we are different, we are the strangers. why should we mould and change hijab to suit what others want. Allah's :Swt: pleasure is primary. Remember the hijab has conditions which must be fulfilled no matter what the season. or the country and surroundings.

And Allah Knows Best.

May Allah make us of those who are wearing hijab with sincerity while fulfilling the conditions. Ameen!

true...

The Messenger of Allâh sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam said: "Verily, Islâm began as a stranger and shall return as a stranger as it began, so Toobaa (is) for the strangers."

The Messenger of Allâh sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam also said to Abdullaah bin Umar: "Be in this world as if you are a stranger or a traveller in his path."

Allâh said in the Quran:
And if you were to follow most of those upon the earth they would mislead you from the path of Allâh.

A Muslim woman is not supposed to draw attention to herself nor make it so she 'stands out' from the crowd.

dressing to stand out?:confused:

How does a Muslimah lose what hijab is about if she wishes to wear hijab in a way which draw less attention to herself?

Allah knows best.

girls where did Allah ta'ala prohibited to wear hijab in colors??? i think u make a big thing 4 nothing,,, the hijabs r nice, some prefer black/white n others prefer colored so no point to start argue cuse there hijab is hijab n these r proper cuse they r big enough to cover breast, neck , wht is supposed to cover,,,the conditions u r talking abt r tht it must cover head n neck n breast n it does n to be not a garment but colour i think it cannot be considered a garment,,,,but Allah knows best so try to be kind to the sister who posted these hijab because she posted them with good intention n 4 her sister but her sisters start a judgement,,,u could instead to post an islamic source if u wanna prove smth,,,n try to not make islam seem harder cuse it is simple

i had a period i was thinking too at hijab saying tht i do not know what to wear cuse i started to look at every coloured, patterned hijab like at a garment,,, n ppl stopped me tht time n said: well hijab is hijab, is a piece of textil 4 covering n that's all,,, he is not a garment if it is coloured or have some pattern but it definitely is a garment when it has like sparkles, shinny material etc,,,

Do you mean that anyone who doesn't have a black niqab and hijab is KAFIR or what?

[Berrah2007]

sister ... don't get intimidated by this Zalafi sister ..

They are just dispersing our Ummah... but the good news is that the ummah has already sent them to the trash bin of history ... like their predecessor 'the khawarij' who believed that they were more pious than the Sahaba themselves!

sooooooooo a sister cant advise other sisters without being labelled the next khawarij? ok.
a sister dont like colourful decorative 'hijiabs' and so coz of dat she is demonised dayyyyam

[thedon2008]

In Dubai and places like that there are shops selling colourful hijabs and people visit them from all over the world. The women there are glamorous which you wouldn't think as they spend a lot on fashion but at the same time remain Islamic and they use hijabs to show their beauty or whatever. WOMEN are complicating ;)

Leave it be. This quote has been taken out of context. Read the whole quote. It doesn't refer to hijab.

sorry guys i know dis is dragging on a bit but i dont think hijab is meant to be used to SHOW a woman's beauty or 'whatever'.

And thank you Honey87, i was meant to say what u said abt the other sister's quote being taken out of context but i forgot. jazakAllah khair :up: All i read was a hadith telling us that the deen started strange and it will return to being strange so we are the strangers etc. so i dont know where the words 'black' 'niqab' and 'kafir' came into it. :rubeyes:

Here we go again .. Zalafism again and again.

A Zalafi is a person who follows a category of people called zalaf. Despite being ignorant, these people try to force people by all means including intimidation ... misinterpretation of hadiths ... etc. The word zalaf in colloquial Arabic is derived from the word zallif. You can go to any north African restaurant and eat zellif which is basically a roasted head of sheep or any other animal. The word zalaf can mean being stubborn to the extreme.

Zalafis usually claim to follow the ONLY valid Islam. They also hold the view that most of the Ummah after the Salaf has gone astray. Thus, anyone who is not Zalafi is misguided and can lead you astray.

They aslo seem to believe that any hijab that is not black is misguidance. So if you are a Zalafi you’d feel like a stranger among the Muslims, or in other words, Muslims are no longer Muslim and it’s only you who is stil Muslim and the others are misguided.

Muslim women worldwide have always had colourful clothes in different designs.

Conditions for hijabs has been outlined by scholars:

1. It must cover all the body except the face and hands
2. It must not be transparent
3. It must not be too tight so that the body forms are shown

Otherwise the design, colour, shape etc. is definned by local customs of each Muslim people ...

It happens that bedouin Arabs from Saudi Arabia like so much black. The Zalafi movement which originated from Najd in Saudi Arabia believes that black is the only colour that is permissible to wear by women. If you don't believe that you are misguided and possibly not a Muslim. So you see how the stubbordness of the zalafis which realy deserve the name Zalafis.

[Safiyyah_1406]

Is there any hadith saying that Prophet Muhammad's (s.a.w) wives were wearing black or colorful clothes?

i dont believe black is the only colour hijab that is valid. and also i dont call anyone kaafir lest i make myself a kaafir by not controlling what i say about others. and im a bit shocked that you r implying that im a 'zalafi'.

and on the subject of intimidation and misinterpretation of hadith, where did u get the idea that the sister (i think 'niqaabi in black') was saying anyone who doesnt wear black hijab and niqaab is kaafir? u did say that didnt you? plz explain how u got that out of the hadith of the strangers?????? that is the first tiem i have heard that hadith explained like that.

I think this belongs in the sisters section....O_O.... a lot of fighting going on too....

[GAL-actic]

:salams

I hope this makes it all clear.

Q: Does women’s hijab have to be black?
Is it haraam for a woman to wear coloured clothes even if it fulfils the conditions of hijab? If it is haraam, then is there a hadeeth or verse to prove that? What is meant by saying it should not be an adornment in itself?.

A: Praise be to Allaah.
It is not one of these conditions that it should be black. A woman may wear whatever she wants, so long as she does not wear a colour that is only for men , and she does not wear a garment that is an adornment in itself, i.e., decorated and adorned in such a way that it attracts the gaze of men, because of the general meaning of the verse (interpretation of the meaning):

“…and not to show off their adornment…”

[al-Noor 24:31]

This general meaning includes the outer garment, if it is decorated. Abu Dawood (565) narrated from Abu Hurayrah that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Do not prevent the female slaves of Allaah from attending the mosques of Allaah, but let them go out unadorned.” Classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Irwa’ al-Ghaleel, 515.

It says in ‘Awn al-Ma’bood:

“ ‘Unadorned’ means not wearing perfume… they are commanded to go out like this and are forbidden to wear perfume lest they provoke men’s desires with their perfume. That also includes other things which are forbidden because they provoke desire, such as beautiful clothing and visible and expensive adornment.”

What a woman must do if she appears before non-mahram men is to avoid clothes that are decorated and adorned, which attract the gaze of men.

It says in Fataawa al-Lajnah al-Daa’imah (17/100):

It is not permissible for a woman to go out in a decorated garment that attracts people’s gaze, because this is something that tempts men.

It also says (17/108):

The dress of the Muslim woman need not only be black. It is permissible for her to wear any colour of clothing so long as it covers her ‘awrah, does not resemble men’s clothing, and is not so tight as to show the shape of her limbs or so thin as to show what is beneath it, and does not provoke temptation.

And it says (17/109):

Wearing black for women is not a must. They may wear other colours that are worn only by women, do not attract attention and do not provoke desire.

Many women choose to wear black, not because it is obligatory, but because it is farthest removed from being an adornment. There are reports which indicate that the women of the Sahaabah used to wear black. Abu Dawood (4101) narrated that Umm Salamah said: “When the words ‘and to draw their veils all over Juyoobihinna (i.e. their bodies, faces, necks and bosoms)’ [al-Noor 24:31 – interpretation of the meaning] were revealed, the women of the Ansaar went out looking as if there were crows on their heads because of their garments.” Classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh Abi Dawood.

The Standing Committee (17/110) said: This is to be understood as meaning that those clothes were black in colour.

And Allaah knows best.


Islam Q&A

[Safiyyah_1406]

...woman may wear whatever she wants, so long as she does not wear a colour that is only for men...

...They may wear other colours that are worn only by women, do not attract attention and do not provoke desire.

What are colors these color? I mean, which of them are for men only?

[GAL-actic]

What are colors these color? I mean, which of them are for men only?

About the colours for men...that's a very good question. I couldn't find something about it either. Maybe someone else can answer that one?

As for the second part the link below will answer your question insha'Allah.

salaam,

here is a good link: http://www.hijabstoreonline.com/

the hijabs are very reasonable price and i ordered them yestrday and today they were here. very fast delivery.

[Berrah2007]

it's good to avoid extremes ... opinions such as the opinions of Salafi/wahabi/khawarij sects .. don't be fooled by their claims of following hadiths... hadiths MUST e interpreted by scholars and thus difference of opinions is natural.

I also recommend this website: http://www.hijabnow.com

click and compare .. there is always something that another webshop don't have
