Does Qur'an Talks About Women Hijab{Dress Code}?

Does Qur'an Talks About Women Hijab{Dress Code}?

Q:The word hijab appears in the Qur’an seven times, five of them as “hijab” and twice as “hijaban”. See 7:46, 17:45, 19:17, 33:53, 38:32, 41:5, 42:51. None of these “hijab” words are used in the Quran in reference to what the traditional Muslims call today “the dress code for Muslim woman”. Hijab in the Qur’an has nothing to do with a woman’s dress code.

Ans:

Praise be to Allah:

   I challenge you to prove that all these verses referring to the dress code of women In Islam(In Context) ? Except one verse(Ch 33 Verse 53) all other verses the arabic word used here “Ĥijābun_ Ĥijābāan_ Ĥijābāan_ Ĥijābin_ Ĥijābi_ Ĥijābun_ Ĥijābin”.

    The word used in many places of the Qur’an in different context with same/ similar meaning in context with synonyms i.e “Veil,screen, curtain, concealed”

   These verses are not talking about the Hijab or dress code, veil for Women, its was revealed in different situations. The one word can be use in different context in different meaning. Even a person who passed 5th class can explain you precisely what is the meaning and context of it.

   It doesn’t means that word “Hijab” cannot be applied for any other meaning by taking into that context.

   For example : The Arabic Word “Barzakhun” as a ” barrier”used in the Qur’an as barrier in ch 23 Verse 100 and the same word used in other place in different context , Qur’an Ch 25 verse 53” Barzakhāan” ch 55 Verse 20 “Barzakhun” .

   Now someone like you , who don’t possess the basic grammatical  knowledge picking the verses just by word its mentioned and says; the word “Barzakhun” Should be used for one situation/ context and for one meaning and should not be used for different context and in different situation/ circumstances. The Arabic Word Hijab or Barzakhun having same meaning with synonyms and used in different context and different circumstances/ Situations.

   The Dress code Commandment given in the Qur’an and Sahi Hadith. The Word “Hijab and jilbabs” used in the Qur’an and Sahi Hadith.

Qur’an ch 24 Verse 30-31, ch 24 Verse 60, ch 33 Verse 53, 59 and

Sahi Bukhari 146, 4481,5149,365,

Sahi Muslim 2170, 1428, 645

Sunna AbuDawood 4102, 1833

Sunna ibn Maja : 2935

Ibn Khuzaymah 4,203, 4/203

al-Haakim, 1/624

   All the above Verses of Qur’an and Sahi hadith(and More) talks about the Hijab/ dress code for women.

   For the Men and Women in Islam. The concept of Dress code in Islam not just merely referring to the clothes, Remember the “The Word Hijab in Arabic Means ““Veil,screen, curtain, concealed” so what Concealing, Hiding, or screening yourself from ? .

Its Means :

1) Concealing, Hiding, covering your body with clothes,

2) Screening your eyes from watching dirty, nudity etc…

3) Veiling , screening your heart from evil thoughts

4) The concept Hijab In Islam Means, overall screening yourself(Dress code, Watching/ hearing from evil thing, how you think, How you talk(With opposite sex), how you walk etc.. )

   Some People like you unacquainted, hazy, illiterate, ill-informed, just blindly copying from the anti Islamic website or hear say stories, without any genuine studies/ research on Islam made them believed foolishly that they are acquainted with all about Islamic rulings. Next time you speak about Islam, do some home work.

   Below following the Seven Verse of the Qur’an English Translation and Transliteration:

English Transaltion by Abdullah yusuf Ali & Transliteration.

1) : Between them shall be a veil, and on the heights will be men who would know every one by his marks: they will call out to the Companions of the Garden, "peace on you": they will not have entered, but they will have an assurance (thereof).

   Wa Baynahumā Ĥijābun Wa `Alá Al-'A`rāfi Rijālun Ya`rifūna Kullāan Bisīmāhum Wa Nādaw 'Aşĥāba Al-Jannati 'An Salāmun `Alaykum Lam Yadkhulūhā Wa Hum Yaţma`ūna.

[Al-Qur’an ch 7 Verse 46]

2) When thou dost recite the Qur'an, We put, between thee and those who believe not in the Hereafter, a veil invisible:

: Wa 'Idhā Qara'ta Al-Qur'āna Ja`alnā Baynaka Wa Bayna Al-Ladhīna Lā Yu'uminūna Bil-'Ākhirati Ĥijābāan Mastūrāan

[Al-Qur’an ch 17 Verse 45]

3) She placed a screen (to screen herself) from them; then We sent her our angel, and he appeared before her as a man in all respects.

Fāttakhadhat Min Dūnihim Ĥijābāan Fa'arsalnā 'Ilayhā Rūĥanā Fatamaththala Lahā Basharāan Sawīyāan

[Al-Qur’an ch 19 Verse 17]

4) And when ye ask of them (the wives of the Prophet) anything, ask it of them from behind a curtain. That is purer for your hearts and for their hearts. And it is not for you to cause annoyance to the messenger of Allah, nor that ye should ever marry his wives after him. Lo! that in Allah's sight would be an enormity.

   Ĥaqqi Wa 'Idhā Sa'altumūhunna Matā`āan Fās'alūhunna Min Warā'i Ĥijābin Dhālikum 'Aţharu Liqulūbikum Wa Qulūbihinna Wa Mā Kāna Lakum 'An Tu'udhū Rasūla Allāhi Wa Lā 'An Tankiĥū 'Azwājahu Min Ba`dihi 'Abadāan 'Inna Dhālikum Kāna `Inda Allāhi `Ažīmāan

[Al-Qur’an ch 33 Verse 53]

5) “And he said, "Truly do I love the love of good, with a view to the glory of my Lord,"- until (the sun) was hidden in the veil (of night):

'Innī 'Aĥbabtu Ĥubba Al-Khayri `An Dhikri Rabbī Ĥattá Tawārat Bil-Ĥijābi

[Al-Qur’an ch 32 Verse 38]

6): They say: "Our hearts are under veils, (concealed) from that to which thou dost invite us, and in our ears in a deafness, and between us and thee is a screen: so do thou (what thou wilt); for us, we shall do (what we will!)"

   Wa Qālū Qulūbunā Fī 'Akinnatin Mimmā Tad`ūnā 'Ilayhi Wa Fī 'Ādhāninā Waqrun Wa Min Bayninā Wa Baynika Ĥijābun Fā`mal 'Innanā `Āmilūna

[Al-Qur’an ch 41 Verse 5]

7)It is not fitting for a man that Allah should speak to him except by inspiration, or from behind a veil, or by the sending of a messenger to reveal, with Allah's permission, what Allah wills: for He is Most High, Most Wise.

   Wa Mā Kāna Libasharin 'An Yukallimahu Allāhu 'Illā Waĥyāan 'Aw Min Warā'i Ĥijābin 'Aw Yursila Rasūlāan Fayūĥiya Bi'idhnihi Mā Yashā'u 'Innahu `Alīyun Ĥakīmun

[Al-Qur’an ch 42 Verse 51]

Allah knows the best.
