I often asked myself , with this latest trend of muslim women wearing hijab? what are they really thinking? is it a free pass to heaven? is it the get out of jail card? whats wrong with muslim women? why the sudden change?
Today in my sons graduation ceremony , with 650 graduates and with over 3,000 in the audience family and friends in this nice theater i couldnt help but notice 2 of the 650 graduate were 2 girls with veil, yes they stuck out like a sore thumb, i was thinking why muslims do that to their children? why not blend in the society? why are they here if they cant be part of this society, if they really disapprove of the morals of this country and what it stands for, then why are they here?
Its really disturbing and i can not deny that I was furuos of the hypocrasy of these people coming to this country and living as if they are in saudi arabia .
honestly sometimes i wonder if these girls are forced or brainwashed, or what the situation maybe but the blame still goes to the parents , what are they really doing are they giving their daughters the keys to heaven and the free pass is the hijab? I am sorry , but i firmly believe in the saying that goes , when u r in Rome live like the Romans.
I just wonder now we are in 2009 , will we see a trend here? will next year have more veiled girls? are we heading in that direction? will that be an indication of where this country is heading and if muslims are indeed taking over? or will muslims wake up from this delusion and will they decide to finally pace civilization and start changing and start acting more civil and start getting back on the right tracks and live in peace with the rest of the world.
let me ask , what is the importance of hijab and how do muslim woemn feel about it? does it cross their mind that they will not go to heaven without the hijab? does it give them more morals, does it make them safer, I know all these answers, but would like to here yours.
many questions, but no one knows the answers to these questions.
I welcome your feedback.

Muslim women need more than Quranic teachings; they need moral guidance showing that they could be modest and virtuous without the help of veils or hijabs. And why is it that women always have to worry about what they should or should not wear? After all, what makes a woman respectable has very little to do with her attire, and a lot to do with what is inside her brain and how much she uses it.
ReplyDeleteBurqas or hijabs had not been able to raise women's status to a liberated and independent group of humans in last 1430 years. No matter how much Muslims apologize in defense of veiling, it has been and will continue to be a symbol of subjugation and oppression of Muslim women all over the world. Segregating women from public life, controlling their freedom of movement, and thereby institutionalizing a system of sexual apartheid are just some of the best contributions that veiling has made so far.
In my opinion its men who needs to discipline his desire.

Thank u again raj.
Dear Nabil, it's not a matter of Hijab ,it's a matter of Islam, bcz every muslim woman should wear the Hijab (as expected) as ALLAH order.
ReplyDeleteIt's a matter likes somewhat the prayer.If you see a muslim doesn't pray, so there is a flaw in his Islam...
So you shouldn't discuss Hijab, you will waste your time. You can discuss Islam, is it the right religion or not...?!
My Sincerity to you...
