Raxmah Posted June 26, 2003 What do you see when you look at me? Do you see someone limited, or someone free? All some people can do is just look and stare, Simply because they can't see my hair. Others think I am controlled and uneducated. They think that I am limited and not liberated, They are so thankful that they are not me, Because they would like to remain 'free'. Well free isn't exactly the word I would've used, Describing women who are cheated on and abused. They think that I do not have opinions or a voice They think that being hooded isn't my choice, They think that the hood makes me look caged, That my husband or dad are totally outraged, All they can do is look at me in fear, And in my eye there is a tear. Not because I have been stared at or made fun of, But because people are ignoring the One up above. On the day of judgment they will be the fools, Because they were too ashamed to play by their own rules. Maybe the guys won't think I am a cutie, But at least I am filled with more inner beauty. See I have declined from being a guy's toy, Because I won't let myself be controlled by a boy Real men are able to appreciate my mind, And aren't busy looking at my behind. Hooded girls are the ones really helping the Muslim cause, The role that we play definitely deserves applause. I will be recognized because I am smart and bright, And because some people are inspired by my sight. The smart ones are attracted by my tranquility, In the back of their mind, they wish they were me We have the strength to do what we think is right Even if it means putting up a life long fight. You see we are not controlled by a mini skirt and tight shirt, We are given only respect, and never treated like dirt. So you see, we are the ones that are free and liberated, We are not the ones that are sexually terrorized and violated. We are the ones that are free and pure, We're free of STD's that have no cure, So when people ask you how you feel about the hood. Just sum it up by saying 'baby its all good' Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OG Moti Posted June 27, 2003 Hijab is beautiful, yet i beleive it is a matter of choice, and girls always look for attractive in Hijab, anyway Hijab would also force others to respect you and take no advantage of u, they will not kugudagdag, and i always sense convidence from Hijabed girls... peace Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rudy-Diiriye Posted June 27, 2003 hijab! my 2 cents about it> its a arabian tradition. which is good, do u know why! cuz it save alot ladies there! and here is the reason. i mean these guys do nothing but think about noky noky all day!so they decide to cover their women which is a natural logic! if u got punch of horny dudes lose, u will take action to cover females. so unless u is an arab, i dont understand why u worried about it!! miss abuser you mac hit me by accident! plz face your computer to the right direction! thx Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Simple Woman Posted June 27, 2003 its a arabian tradition :rolleyes: so unless u is an arab, i dont understand why u worried about it!! are u serious?? Allah (swt) commanded us in the qurn to cover ourselves.. its not only 4 arabs! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Abdinuur Posted June 27, 2003 Baby it's all good! Women wearing their Hijab are the most beautiful, the most modest creatures on the face of the earth...that is...if she's sincere about wearing it and being honest to herself. It's rare to see a Somali sista whose into Hijab these days cuzz of how the world has evolved in the past century and all the drama that people produced. I admire sistas who are attached to their DIINUL-ISLAM and doing their thing...school, work, marriage ect. Wear your hijab girl... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OG Moti Posted June 27, 2003 rudy correction Hijab is not arab tradition it is Islamic tradition and it is beautiful...so bro think again by the way rudy ur posts are cool bro keep it up .. peace Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xalimo7 Posted June 27, 2003 I hear a story not long ago, mosttly veils are worn by Men in Arab society, i don't know if it is true or not, but that is what i was told, so next time you see a veil make sure u don't imagine things. Hmmmm Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bilan Posted June 28, 2003 salaam well i think that hijab is not matter of choice,but it is mandotary to all muslim women,i say it is not matter of choice because this verse in ahzab[36] "It is not fitting for a Believer, man or woman, when a matter has been decided by Allah and His Messenger, to have any option about their decision: if anyone disobeys Allah and His Messenger, he is indeed on a clearly wrong Path". and rudy hijab has nothing to do with arab, Allah ordered all women from the time of the prophet till the end of this world to cover.

NinBrown Posted June 28, 2003 When women wera hijab it looks good on them and also it gives women respect. Most somali guys when they see a woman wearing hijab they dont trespass her..and they give her more respect that non hijab wearer. The above statement what we see in daily life. but the facts are 1)hijab is not optional its conditional 2)its in the quran suratul ahzab..ayat 59 '33:59 O Prophet! Tell thy wives and daughters, and the believing women, that they should cast their outer garments over their persons (when abroad): that is most convenient, that they should be known (as such) and not molested. And Allah is Oft- Forgiving, Most Merciful'. rudy over 95% of Islam is facts from Quran and hadith...now go and check that ayat. dont ever bring the islamic religion into despute in your discussions. what you beleive and what the is in the quran and hadith might be different. there ppl in this forum who might not be knowlegeable about such matters and for you to confuse them with such comments is treacherous. So i ask you PLEASE dont bring islam into disrepute Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bilan Posted June 28, 2003 salaam rudy all the four imaams, all muslim scholars and from the prophet's time till now, no one ever doubted that the hijab is mandatory,people were always debating whether the niqab is sunna or fard, but not the hijab, nino_brownalready gave you a verse and here is another one [31] And say to the believing women that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty; that they should not display their beauty and ornaments except what (must ordinarily) appear thereof; that they should draw their veils over their bosoms and not display their beauty except to their husbands, their fathers, their husbands' fathers, their sons, their husbands' sons, their brothers or their brothers' sons, or their sisters' sons, or their women, or the slaves whom their right hands possess, or male servants free of physical needs, or small children who have no sense of the shame of sex; and that they should not strike their feet in order to draw attention to their hidden ornaments. And O ye Believers! turn ye all together towards Allah, that ye may attain Bliss. bro scholars said that if someone drinks alcohol, or do not wear hijab they are still muslims, but if someone says that alcohol is halal or hijab is not mandatory then thay can be considered they are out of islam, because you can not believe half of the quran and reject the other half, that is what the jews wanted and it was rejected, so before you say this is wahabi or arab read the quran.
