Allah is aware of what they do. They should not engage in or approve of any activity which objectifies or demeans a woman. They are also required to cast down their gazes in humility and to observe the general philosophy of modesty of the heart and dress.
They must wear decent clothing and avoid activities and places that will cause them to witness that which they should not. Rather, when hijab is mutually observed, such interactions will take place in sincerity of purpose and devoid of impropriety. They should not modify their behavior around men so as to seem invitingly attractive or flirtatiously pleasing and thus allow themselves to be objectified.
Muslim scholars unanimously state that a woman should respectably cover all except her hands and face. Muslim women fulfill this requirement by wearing loose fitting clothing and covering their hair with scarves. One will observe these distinctions in Western society where a relatively small number of women read pornographic magazines or visit prostitutes when compared to men who engage in such activities.
Before God, men and women are distinguished from one another only in terms of individual piety. When observing modest dress, before one another, they are distinguished by non-physical characteristics such as intellect and integrity. Rather, hijab assists in building a sound society and reduces the number of crimes such as rape and molestation since a possible stimulus for such crimes is not present when hijab is observed.
Observance of hijab is part of a larger system in Islam that when properly followed maintains the dignity of men, women, and society as a whole.
People take me more seriously, and I feel protected and confident when I step out. Vakil, M. Article Summary. Method 1. Study and assess religious and scholarly literature pertaining to modesty in Muslim culture.
Discuss the topic of modesty with your parents. Talk to your father and mother about their expectations for how you dress and ask them to provide you with some suggestions and guidance. Ask your parents what they think it means to dress modestly. Are they comfortable with you wearing long dresses or skirts or would they prefer you to wear an abaya? How do they feel about the niqab?
Talk with the women of your family about how they reached their own personal interpretation of the requirements of hijab. Determine what it means for you to dress modestly.
It is a personal choice that will be informed primarily by your religious beliefs, but also political opinions and cultural understanding. You can wear the hijab even if you can't fully commit to wearing it everyday. What matters is that you are trying. It's better to wear the Hijab sometimes than not to wear it at all. Of course, one's goal should always be to wear the hijab everyday.
Frequently alternating between wearing and not wearing the hijab should be avoided as Allah prefers consistency in acts of worship. Hijab is not just a piece of clothing; it represents modesty. Just because you choose to wear the hijab, doesn't make you a modest person. Hijab is a way of life.
Reaffirm your decision periodically. While you may initially choose to wear a hijab as a teenager, you may be tempted to uncover as an adult. This is very common. Method 2. Wear a hijab, or head covering. Women honor this rule of modesty by wearing a hijab, a veil that wraps around their head, leaving the face uncovered while completely concealing their hair, neck, and chest.
You may choose from several types of hijabs , or head coverings. Pick the one that is right for you: Shayla: Wrap this rectangular scarf around your head and use a pin to secure it at your shoulders.
Khimar: Wear this cape-like scarf wrapped tightly around your head. It will hang loosely at your mid-back. Chador: If you prefer more coverage, choose this floor-length scarf. It is a longer version of the Khimar. Niqab: The niqab is a cloth face covering chosen by many Muslim women to provide additional protection. Burqa: The burqa will cover you from head-to-toe—a small mesh panel over your eyes is the only opening. Traditionally, hijabs come in plain, non-attention-grabbing colors, like black, white, blue, and brown.
If you feel comfortable wearing colors and patterns, a fashionable scarf from your local department store may be substituted for a solid colored hijab. Wear loose-fitting clothes. With your hijab, wear loose, non-revealing tops and bottoms.
Sheer and or figure-hugging clothing should be avoided. Remember, the type of clothing you wear with your hijab is completely dependent upon your comfort level and understanding of modesty. Ask your parents for a second opinion if you are unsure about a certain piece of clothing. If you prefer full coverage, shop for maxi skirts, wide leg pants, long dresses and abayas.
Want to wear skinny jeans or leggings? Pair them under a long flowing top or dress. If you want to wear a tighter outfit, cover it up with an abaya, jilbab or mumu. Apply natural-looking make-up.
If you choose to wear make-up on a daily-basis, go for a natural look. Apply minimal amounts of foundation, blush, mascara, and lip-gloss to enhance your natural beauty and features. Limit the amount of jewelry you wear. Avoid chunky necklaces and statement earrings.
