Authenticity Of Ahadith About Pardah
Please see: Discussion 50168 • Reply 50219
Salam Alaikum Sorry to bother again,but my question is still about the same hadith Though the Qur’an mentions only putting the khimar over the bosoms, but the above hadith says that the women” put on a khimar made up of those torn pieces” or “khimaared” themselves with those pieces of clothes and not just covered their bosoms with khimaar. If I’m not wrong, doesn’t putting on a khimar mean wearing a headcover? Because the hadith isn’t saying that the women just covered their bosoms with khimaar, but they put on the khimaar and as we know , khimar was a headcover. Though the following hadith: https://sunnah.com/abudawud:641 is about prayer , it’s somewhat relevant for this query. It states that the prayer of an adult woman isn’t accepted without a khimar, and it is understood to mean that the prayer isn’t accepted without wearing a headcover. So if in case of this hadith, wearing a khimar means covering the head, why wouldn’t it be the same for the above hadith( related to Surah An-Nur) The link to Ghamidi sahab’s video above explains Ghamidi sahab’s understanding,but that’s only for the Quranic verse. What about the hadith? I know a similar hadith is mentioned at the beginning of the last video in the pardah (23 questions) series ,but I wasn’t really satisfied with the explanation. Ghamidi Sahab said that the women just did what is mentioned in the verse(i.e. wearing the khimar to hide the adornments of the bosom) but the language of the hadith is different, as it says that women put on a khimar after hearing this verse( which would probably mean that they covered their heads and bosoms with it) and not just wrapped the khimaar over their bosoms. I’m extremely confused, that’s why I’m asking questions about the same topic again and again
