Quran 33:59 – Why Application Of Parda Limited To That Specific Time Only?
To make a frank contact with a woman (lady) in open was hard or as bad as it is in any civilised society but it is easy if the woman is a maid or prostitute. Wearing Jalbaab indicates that the woman is a lady not a maid or prostitute. the slave girls did not wear Hijab. Although this kind of garment was being used by women already, when they went outside home, but it was a made a sign by God to warn the hypocrites. What Mawlana said finds its place in the interpretation of Ghamidi saheb. The only difference is that Mawlana makes it a permanent feature in the name of parda regardless of the situation of harassment or mischief. While Ghamidi saheb relates it with the situation. Since that situation was common for all women then, so the injunction was given to all women at that time.
