Covering Adornments Like Hair Dye, Hair Styles, Bangles & Other Hair Adornments
Sir I have one question According to Javed Ghamdi Sahab Zeenat me unn cheezo ko cover Karna laazmi Nahi Jo unn me se khuli Hoti he But Sir girls ke Hair bhi Tu khule hote he Tu phir Head ki zeenat like Jewellery Cover Karna Kyu laazmi he??
No. They are usually exposed and may stay exposed. Even a head zeenat if culturally stays exposed it can stay exposed
Sir I disagree with this point of view. Here are the points that make me think less logic in this p.o.v. 1)first of all, If extra attention is concerned, then the face attracts 100times more than the hair. As far as every culture and human nature is concerned, it is universally accepted that people are generally attracted towards those who look good and there is nothing wrong in saying that Face plays the biggest role in appearance. So if extra attention is concerned then it should be advisable to cover the face rather than the hair. Generally, No one will ever be attracted to a person who has a beautiful hair but not has a attractive face. 2)Secondly, If I understood perfectly, then extra attention is not concerned but sexual attraction is concerned specifically. So opinion of ghamidi sahab regarding the adornment on chest seems logical because chest of a women is a sexual part and that is why it is not allowed. And Hair is by no means a sexual part. There is even some possibility of being sexually attracted by the face but not by the hair. The reason is face has the ability to express. 3)thirdly, you said majority is not the criterion. If this is not the criteria then what is the criteria?. I understand that majority or minority is not a 100% criterion but in this matter it plays a major role which can be qualified as a criteria. When we say social norms we mean the actual norm of the society/place. And norm of the society is not created by minority but majority. And majority of people generally follows the standard norm. Example:- If we say the society is a muslim society then we refer to the existence of Muslim majority in that particular society. So in this way majority plays a major role for a person to decide because in this matter choice is given to decide. Now, why is society not 100% the criteria? The reason is above society there is Quran. Even if something is normal in the majority in the society but Quran prohibited it so the word of quran is the only authority. But as you said in this matter choice is given, so there is no wrong in taking decision by considering the norm of the society and norm is formed by the majority of people. And It is the person who will decide, so she can take any factor into consideration while deciding. And even if the decision proves to be wrong, she won’t be held accountable because according to your opinion in this case she had the choice to decide by being honest to herself. 4)fourthly, most Importantly I believe that there would be no need to discuss this matter if we only follow what has been told. Like, if there is such a need to cover the hair, why quran has not said anything explicity in this matter. We agree that Allah has said clearly stated everything in quran about what do do and what not not to do. And Quran is the only authority. So clearly, Allah has not said anything to cover the head but it was the bossom which was asked to be covered with the extra cloth. Regarding adornments, Allah used the term “illama zahara minha”. This means the body parts which are usually stay exposed before namahram. So after maintaing Hifz-e-furooz , everything can be included in this illama zahara minha(with the exception of adornments on chest because Allah precisely said about it). Allah could have also said about the hair clearly but he didn’t. It would also be wrong to say that he unanimously said about it because why would he do that, it can get us in trouble if we donot understand the unanimous verdict. So it’s clear that regarding any serious ruling, Allah has always been precised , what is need to be done and what is not. So if a person donot cover her hair then it logically falls in the category of “illama zahara minha”. Allah has clearly told us the things which are need to followed in this regard. So after following the particular things I don’t think women will be responsible for anything she does . Even if the culture or society is against the adornments on hair(which is usually not the case today) but a women does (hypothetically speaking.. generally no men/women goes against the society to create unnecessary disputes) she won’t be held accountable because whatever need to be followed she is following according to her understanding of quran. The reason is culture/society do play the role, but is not decissive. Uncovered face , unadorned hair can also be against for a particular society if extra attention is concerned specifically. So the culture is not decessive in such cases where quran hasn’t prohibited it. It used the word “illama zahara minha” so hair can be included in this if a person does not cover her hair.
