Why Hijab is Important to women

What is hijab?

In Islam women are advised to dress with simplicity and modesty. Women should wear clothing that does not reveal any part of her body or its not tight enough that shows the body shape. At this level women are advised to do as we say Veil in Islam. Hijab is not just a piece of clothing it’s a sense of security she wears around her head.

There are different types of hijab but the most common three are

Hijab: the one that is a headscarf that covers your hair and neck

Burqa: it’s somewhat women wears to cover their whole body into loose fitting one piece

Niqab:  its very much similar to burqa and hijab but it completely cover the whole women body as well as the face .

Burqa is not mandatory but hijab is utmost important in islam.

Hijab for Muslim women and why it important to them:

  Best Hijabs for women is the sense of identification they wear it because they want to be defined by their scarf’s.  The women with hijab stands out anywhere. Even when the weather is hot some women who are devoted to hijab do not take it off. For some women it’s a part of their belief and they think it brings them closer to almighty.

The hijab isn’t just about religion ladies wear it for different reasons that can change, contingent upon the time and social setting.

They wear it to flag pride in their ethnic personality. So as you ban see hijab is just nit a piece of clothing for some women it has a very large significance

 Why is hijab important in the light of hadith and sunnah :

There are a lot of hadith about hijab as it is the most mentioned thing in islam for women.

Some are as below

• “Say to the believing men that: they should cast down their glances and guard their private parts (by being chaste). This is better for them.”(24:30).

This is an order to Muslim men that they shouldn’t obscenely take a gander at ladies (other than their own spouses);

• “…and not display their beauty except what is apparent, and they should place their khumur over their bosoms…” (24:31).

At last the refrain proceeds to give the rundown of the mahram – male relatives in whose presence the hijab isn’t needed, like the spouse, the dad, the father by marriage, the son(s), and others.

• “And tell the believing women to reduce of their vision and guard their private parts and not expose their adornment except that which appears thereof and to wrap their head-covers over their chests and not expose their adornment except to their husbands, fathers, sons, husband’s sons, brothers, brother’s son, sister’s sons…” [Qur’an 24:31]

This verse shows the significance of hijab.

Why hijab is important:

Why hijab is important? This question has been a topic for debate for a very long period of time. In order for us to understand the significance of hijab reticence has been a very important part of our culture. It gives us peace not only physically but also spiritually. And when you cover your head as it is told in Islam and advised by our Rasool (PBUH) it’s your way of showing your belief and obedience to what has been said by Allah.It makes our connection to Allah much stronger. Allah protects the woman who wears hijab from the outer world. Hijab is an obligation for every muslim women. Hijab is kind of the shield from the lustful gaze of people who see women as an object.

Some women wear it as a pride that they are proud they are Muslim and they are not afraid to show it. It has a very important significance that it enlightens the purity of any women wearing it. As this the symbol of purity for most of the women. It is very important as it protects us from evil . If one somehow managed to examine verifiable books of different times and ages. The other point is that unobtrusiveness is a part in a few world religions, especially in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. It might really shock numerous that it was not Islam that designed humility or hijab. With the last message given to Prophet Muhammad (harmony arrive), the request for Hijab was affirmed and settled.

Significance of Hijab:

Great significance of hijabs is one must consider it . You are not bound to follow the restrictions of the society if one doesn’t allows you to wear a headscarf. You can stand for yourself and for you imaan because for some women its their imaan and they wear it with pride and want to be recognized by it at one places Allah almighty increasing the significance of hijab said.

“That is more suitable that they will be known and not abused”

It also gives a message to the people out their who are against it and who doesn’t support it and finds it as a terrorist act that muslim women are not afraid to follow their obligations. No matter what the society say if one thing hives them a source of protection they follow and and do it and them all people gets the message that they are strong independent and they can do what they want regardless of society for their sense of security not only physically but spiritually as well.

I will refer a most known saying about hijab  that says:

“ It is not a hijab it is a key to jannah”

Well this quotes briefed it all and clearly told us why hijab is important. So one should practice hijab on our daily basis it will take time but as we say slow and steady wins the race so you will get used to of hijab one day.
