Head Covering For Women During Salah
And please tell me are women have been covering head during prayers from the time when Prophet S.A.W taught how to pray untill now. Because women have been covering heads long time ago.
@Daniaa Khan When we pray salah we ought to show adaab for Allah as if he is looking at us… The adab is not for the prayer itself but rather its an attitude and behavior of an individual before God… as humble and desperate believer in need of him….Salah is the ritual to show gratitude and receive blessings from the Ultimate Lord of Creator. Its very much similar to us youngsters giving respect to our elders when we meet them and receive their prayers & blessings in return… We bow our head down in respect to greet them and the women cover their head as well besides looking down and bowing down their head in respect. 🙂 The Quotations that your referenced from the bible are statements of Saint Paul. Paul wrote these letters giving instructions to the new churches in various cities of Roman Empire in Asia Minor, where some new women converts were also leading the Christian congregation. Paul is considered an Apostle/Prophet in Christianity. But The Quran gives no references about Paul. Zero. Therefore Shariat of Paul regarding women modesty does not hold a religious argument for us Muslims. However Quran does recognize Jesus Christ as true Prophet and Messiah. And we don’t find any statements like these about women coming from Jesus in the Bible. 🙂
