Rising Phoenix Posted May 24, 2003 oppionated: nicely said, sis... Male Somalis often think or even say that a hijab wearing sister is much better than the "un-covered" sister. Well, let ask you something: how is it that a hijab wearing sister is not paid any "special" attention by our male counter persona's? But the girl with the jeans has guys leaning out of cars going "walaaloo! Nice a$$"? At the end of the day,admit it, guilty guys: its all about the territory and invasion of male-dominated space. These guilty guys want to MARRY a hijab girl, but are content dating supposed "wild" ones. And unless you have been favoured by Allah and granted psychic powers, I dont think anyone of us know whether a jeans-wearing girl is sinful or not. Sweet-Muna, sis: At the end of the day, its YOUR thoughts you're left with. Dont change for or on account of anyone else, especially not Somalis (though I love my kin) they judge WAY too much. You know yourself and as rightly mentioned before, if you've got a pure heart with no bad intentions whatsoever, then I'm sure you've got nothing worry about, sis. Must dash, Prada is having the Summer Sale and I just have to have those much-acclaimed jeans... ~harmonyangel~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Qac Qaac Posted May 25, 2003 let me put it this way. as we (men) when we see a woman with pants especially we somalian men we think about dating her and fooling around with her, u know like the worm up u do before the game. cause the girl left her hijab left her safe territory. I always wonder when i see women who is showing most of her body, say why r we getting raped, come on hon. You r instigating the men, nowadays they even got this perfumes that women put on, that even when u r not looking the women u will smelled it u would look at her. so it is the nature of men, to treat the women according to her dress, if she is wearing pants and tight shirts well then men would treat her like a piece of meat, and call her names, hey BABY COME HERE, let me do u. but if she is wearing Hijab, men automatically will respect her, and think of her as wivey caliper, she is the game, she is not those worm up girls u know. now i didn't even mention what Islam says about Hijab, sis allah said in his Quran that a woman should wear loose fitting cloth and wear the hijab in proper way. so if u r not wearing a hijab, u r sinning, u automatically saying no to Allah. and not taking his order.

Mujahida Posted May 25, 2003 wahad ilahai usamenii weysid bina adim ha uu sameynin! I like that somali quote my father says it to me. lol but excuse my somali, i'm sure u can understand it though i hope so. Muna, Sista our religion has taught us not wear jeans. It's made haram because we're resembling the male. All i wanna say to you is, if you wouldn't wanna sacrifice for Allah's sake than why the hell do you care about what someone else says or thinks? Whats scary and wild is the HELL think of that my sista in islam! I used to wear pants myself, I'v been clean for 3 years now :)Alhamdulilah! It wasn't easy but It's worth it!

sweet_gal Posted May 25, 2003 I remember 2 year ago I always wore pants and sometimes skirts ....Until my friends dad who knows a lot about islam preached me and told me how it is wrong and haram to wear pants because it doesn't say in the quran that we can......And that just because I live in Canada I should'nt be folling their ways or imatating their ways.............. I posted A speech done by a imam on Islam thread that talks about how it is Haram to imatate Non-muslims...........So if u were pants and tigh shirts how are u suppose to expect people to know that u are a religious person.........I don't mean to chritize but before I use to wear Jeans ( I didn't use to pray ) but after I started wearing Only skirts I started praying and being a good muslim for a while....... Basically it's Haram for a girl to wear Hijab and with it a jean and tight shirt........What are u trying to accomplish wearing that......Well christan girl wear pants and tigh shirts cause it's not against their religion but why would u copy them if ur religion is against wearing Pants....... If u like I'll even bring proof to u that it's wrong........ If attention is what u want, then u should know that it's wrong to look for attention by showing off ur body.....And anything that shows the figure of ur body is wrong..... Every part of ur body that sticked to ur body well burn in hell which means ur whole body... Jeans +tight shirt+ Hijab= hell........ But if ur gonna wear something like that theirs no point of even puting a hijab on......Especially if u dont even wear it properly to begin with Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
king_450 Posted May 26, 2003 sister as i was surfing i came across your writing and i felt like a rock was thrown into me to read ur article, i wish most of the true somali muslim women listen up and see that it is not in thier best interest to immitate, i for one a prgressive somali men, usually i don;t pay attention what our btlf somali women wear, but lately i am becoming little bit concern about that, i don;t know if that is good or bad, but i think u made a good point and i hope that they atleast pay attention into ur timing, good luck and may god bless u, Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
