sister if you wear a niqab it would bl cleaner for our heart and yours.

[Madhofd]

why isnt this girl covered..?

[linustusmus]

@Madhofd why is it the only thing you can possibly say about her..? Why can't you say 'masha'Allah we're lucky to have such brains in our Muslim community!' ?

If you can't watch her, at least listen to what she has to say.

[linustusmus]

@za123ace How do you know if she is pure or not? You're telling her to wear niqab, but seriously brother, lower your gaze if you can't stand her being uncovered. She's not wearing something outrageous, right? I wear a hijab myself, which results from a deep understanding of Allah's commandment. I didn't do that for men. And according to you, wearing hijab would be "cleaner" for you men... No, hijab is made only for modesty and so that we can be recognize as Muslims, as the Holy Quran says.

@linustusmus "There is in the body a clump of flesh - if it becomes good, the whole body becomes good and if it becomes bad, the whole body becomes bad. And indeed it is the heart."

@za123ace if you see a brother who doesn't have a beard, you'll think "he's not pure, may Allah guide him"? My faith was very low at the time when I mentally spent hours criticizing my outside form. I neglected my inside faith - which is the most important, you can't say the contrary. Allah doesn't let us alone, he shows signs & I'm better covered I know it. But it's all personal, we all have our own pace. Also, the ayat speaks of purification of mind. There's a light around her, look closely.

[linustusmus]

@za123ace Brother, I can't understand what you mean... You're first saying she should wear a niqab, then to my reply to an other brother's reply you say we should first purify ourselves before seeking knowledge (that's what you said, right?) my conclusion is you're saying she's not pure. I don't see an other explanation to what you said. If I misunderstood you, then correct me. But again bro, I'm not gonna right too much;

@za123ace Please don't judge the umma through an external form, or by something written on youtube. What you wrote is very hurtful as if I was a misguided muslim who was trying to deviate others, that I was lying. Elhemdulillah Allah knows best our deep intention,& I don't know what are yours but mine are far from being negative. You're saying I think I'm a mufti or Aisha, I'm not. You're telling your opinions, I'm telling mine & even though we don't agree doesn't mean I'm trying to be superior.

@za123ace

I agree with you shyness and modesty are gud things on everyone. they are from Iman.

We both aren't saying its not the only things but it only makes the situtaion more beautiful like kindness.

However this is a deep topic ins Islam, an interfaith should be on Tawheed, so many people revert just by learning tawheed, I just didn't see the wisdom in the structure.

If someone were dying and said La ilahha ilalah the gates for heaven could be opened for them.
