The muslim idea is that they "tempt" men with their beauty & need to be covered. I say BS, that muslim MEN should be able to control themselves, whether a woman is veiled or not. Do you remember a few yrs back, a school for girls in one of those middle east countries caught on fire with students inside, & muslim MEN would NOT let them out of the school to escape the fire cos they weren't properly veiled-they even chased those girls who got out back INTO the fire! Every girl in that school burned to death......now THAT'S sick sick sick!
It's just part of their culture.
cuz they are owned by another man and that is the culture
in Islam its order to hide theirselves by unknowns. specially head and chest.
@superfran.... hi givin answer lol
non of those am a Muslim "its like being more into the religion for more blessing but i don't wear it " its annoys me :P
thanx for the answer!
my mom wear it . ewww
there was a christian and a Muslim. the christian asked the Muslim : why ur women cover there body . the muslim answers in a behaved way : see if there was a opened candy thrown in the street and a covered one which one u will chose . the christian answers : the covered for sure .so the muslim said :that why our women cover up there body....
wish u understood :)
- In islam, it is attractive to hide the woman's body and only show some parts.
america, freak yah, we dont like to cover out temptations, we like our boys to drool.
a muslim woman is supposed to wear a veil in front of all men who are not related to her.think abt it like this........if u had pure gold or some other precious jewels,u wouldnt carry 'em around outside.u wud keep 'em safe.a woman in islam is more precious than jewels.thats y we wear a hijab or veil when we go outside or are in front of men who are not related to us.ibut that doesnt mean men can stare at uncovered women as much as they want.they r told to lower their gaze when it comes to unknown women.and woman arn''t suppoed to stare at men as much as they want either.the thing is that woman are more shy.u dont hear abt a woman raping a man.so thats y woman are supposed to cover themselves.men attack first or its in a mans nature.besides.men are made to do hard work and they wouldnt be able to do that if they wore a hijab.its not the culture.its in our religion.but wat jaysonmooney said is wrong.were not OWNED by men.they are our protectors.
Because I believe that everybody should have a choice. Here in the West, islamic women have a choice, but in some countries they are FORCED to cover up. It bothers me because ALL people should decide for themselves, not be forced. it's easy for you to say it because you don't have to wear it, but there are women who wish they had that choice.
It goes back a long way & is thought to be a sign of modesty & reverence in regard to religion. Islamic society has adopted many different veils, with different meanings.
To keep Jen from looking at them. Apparently they (the men) have no personal control over themselves when women are involved. That's why at worship all the men are in the front and the woman are in the back. Apparently even when praying to their god they won't be able to stay focused if there are any women within the visual range.
Superfan, how about a raped woman being forced to marry her rapist (Deut 22:28-29), do you not consider that pathetic? Or I suppose you didn't know about this?
So you see we follow our religion correctly but you guys don't so it's a must in your religion and it's written in your Holy Bible and btw your friend from Iran...you should know those people from Iran are mostly Shia and those kinds doesn't represent Islam because they're extreme and they do things the Islam religion doesn't say it.
So you have to beware from where you get infos like this.
its part of their culture but its false islam is based on natzi principles and is overated
am a muslim i don't think so
The muslims say because of temptation. I would like to tell you the real truth but my answer would get deleted. LOL
Not all Muslim women have to wear burkas or veils.. this is a common misconception with many people. I have many Muslim friends who prefer not to wear them, however, we are in America. In countries like Iran and Saudi Arabia it is required. My one Muslim friend who prefers to wear one said she believes certain features of a woman bring out the unwanted temptations for a man. She prefers to show her hair and body to her husband. I say, "To each his own".. Who am I to judge? If it works for them, so be it!
For the same reason you see nuns wearing them.
"Let there be no compulsion in Islam" Quran 2:256
cookieroma, muslim woman arn't forced to be muslim woman either.im a muslim girl who wears a hijab and im proud.btw,i agree with momo.
Nicely done, and much appreciated.
have you ever been there???
So don't believe the TV and the movies.
As rob zombie said: "bullets and the movies NEVER tell the whole"
Understand it well and don't believe the media.
That's your problem Fran,you go and surf stupid lying websites and you belevie them...I'll tell what read the holy Quran( make sure you buy a GOOD translated Quran) and when you complete it compare between the Quran and the bible ok?
And about KSA it's really a good great country don't believe what haters and media words because it's all lies!!!
To protect themselves from strangers and to hide their natural beauty.
And it's a fact that the women who wear a veil is less likely to get rapped*. So it's a kind of self defense.
Its not a debate Fran.

thanx that was the best answer !!!!!!!
So tell me when did this fire occur?
What was the year?
What's the city?
What's the name of the school?
And I'll tell you the right story not the one that you've been told by some jerks on TV.
Go ahead and try to twist it into something else, but "The Song Remains The Same".
In Saudi Arabia a girl shouldn't wear a veil un till she's 14 or 15 and about the extreme religious people they didn't cause the fire and they didn't lock the girls inside!!!
The problem was made because of electric explosion or something like that BUT 15 girls died because they couldn't escape the school the gate was locked and the key was with the busy guard don't know why he was busy and the school wasn't prepared for a fire accident as so the teachers.
So the extreme guys didn't kill anybody but as you know if they killed one innocent then they'll judged by Islamic way.
I did told you Tony the media is controlling your mind!!!
As Ozzy said: " the media sells it and you live the role"
And as 2pac said: "don't get caught up in the mix cuz the media is full of dirty tricks"
I can't go wrong on infos like these pal.
And about those mutawaen some of them unfortunately give Islam a bad reputation,and you and I know what's the punishment in Islam if you kill innocents right?
And if those mutawaen locked those poor girls at school do you think that their parents would stand still???
Get real friend.
Do you really think think the Saudi STATE-OWNED news media tells the truth? Hahaha you're just trying to make me laugh, aren't you? Hahaha good job, it worked! :-)
the narrow-minded morality in the name of Islam, fought with the Civil Defense units that wanted to enter the building. The muttawa belong to the officially sanctioned Society for the Promotion of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice and make it their job to enforce head coverings for women and strict separation of the sexes. The fleeing girls had left their scarves behind, and their would-be rescuers were men. Some of the girls were actually forced back into the building to cover up. Finally, regular police subdued the muttawa leader, confiscated his ID and dragged him away. The school door was opened, the small fire extinguished. But by then 15 girls were dead or dying,and more than 40 were injured.
As far as I know CNN isn't allowed in Mecca right?
And you say that we Muslims don't value our daughters,what do you think we are?
You don't know how much is the level of a daughter in Islam I mean look at the Arabs before Islam they were burying them alive and look how Islam changed them.
I told some of the mutawaen don't represent us.
Get real van Tony lol
