· “O you Children of Adam! We have bestowed on
you raiment to cover your shame as well as to be an adornment to you. But the
raiment of righteousness, that is the best. Such are among the Signs of Allah,
that they may receive admonition.” · “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 therof; 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 servants 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 you Believers, turn you all together towards Allah,
that you may attain Bliss.” · “O Prophet, tell your wives and your
daughters and the women of the believers to draw their cloaks close round them
(when they go abroad). That will be better, so that they may be recognised and
not annoyed. Allah is ever Forgiving, Merciful.” |
