Evidence (2024-07-18): In the most basic terms, Abaya is a loose-fitting robe designed for Muslim women to wear on top of their regular clothes. The term Abaya originated from an Arabic reference for the word cloak, which means a loose garment. [...] As simple as it may seem, Abaya happens to be the most popular dress in the Muslim world. Its popularity is such that nations like the UAE, have constituted Abaya as their national dress. Its popularity can’t give rise to an "Intriguing" factor considering how comfortable it is to wear around and how it can be styled to suit a myriad of everyday events and occasions.

Evidence (2024-10-05): The abaya (colloquially and more commonly, Arabic: عباية ʿabāyah, especially in Literary Arabic: عباءة ʿabā'ah; plural عبايات ʿabāyāt, عباءات ʿabā'āt), sometimes also called an aba, is a simple, loose over-garment, essentially a robe-like dress, worn by some women in the Muslim world including most of the Middle East, North Africa, and parts of the Horn of Africa.[1] Traditional abayas are usually black and may either be a large square of fabric draped from the shoulders or head or a long kaftan. The abaya covers the whole body except the head (sometimes), feet, and hands. It can be worn with the niqāb, a face veil covering all but the eyes. Some women also wear long black gloves, so their hands are covered as well. It is common that the abaya be worn on special occasions, such as mosque visits, Islamic holiday celebrations for Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha, and also during the Islamic holy month of Ramadan. [...] Countries [edit]Outside some states such as Saudi Arabia, Yemen, UAE, Qatar and Pakistan[2] the abaya is not widely worn by Muslim women. Abaya also refers to different garments in different countries. In Arab states of the Persian Gulf, they tend to be black in color.

Evidence (2022-09-23): Many people may not think too deeply about the academic apparel required for their graduation ceremony. But the familiar graduation outfit worn throughout the world today originated from the Arabic clothing - thawb. [...] When students from Europe learned & graduated from these universities and returned to their lands, they used to dress in Muslim robes (Thawb or Qamees) and that would become an indication that this particular student graduated from the university of the Muslims. [...] The graduation gown worn today is known as the subfusc and the flat hat with the tassels is called the mortar board.

Evidence (2022-01-17): The Muslim woman’s clothing was a particular target of Islamaphobes because of how easy it is to identify the Muslim woman. There is hardly anyone else who dresses like us (aside from nuns who are easily identifiable as Christian and thus safe). This makes a Muslim woman covering a symbol of resistance and authenticity. When my parents sat me down that day, it was one of the many instances where Islamophobia and white feminism played a part in attempting to take away my agency.

Evidence (2015-02-19): Muslim Women's Clothing (Adapted from The Seattle Times, May 27, 2003) MS Word doc. [...] Muslim Fashion by In the shops of London's Oxford Street, girls wear patterned scarves over their hair as they cluster around makeup counters. Alongside them, hip twenty-somethings style their head-wraps in high black topknots to match their black boot-cut trousers. Participating in the world of popular mainstream fashion--often thought to be the domain of the West--these young Muslim women are part of an emergent cross-faith transnational youth subculture of modest fashion. In treating hijab and other forms of modest clothing as fashion, Reina Lewis counters the overuse of images of veiled women as "evidence" in the prevalent suggestion that Muslims and Islam are incompatible with Western modernity. Muslim Fashion contextualizes modest wardrobe styling within Islamic and global consumer cultures, interviewing key players including designers, bloggers, shoppers, store clerks, and shop owners. Focusing on Britain, North America, and Turkey, Lewis provides insights into the ways young Muslim women use multiple fashion systems to negotiate religion, identity, and ethnicity.ISBN: 9780822359142Publication Date: 2015-09-25 -

Evidence (2017-11-16): Such "tampering" with Omani national dress remained a concern five years later, as mentioned in a December 26, 2013, piece in the Times of Oman. The Ministry of Commerce and Industry issued an order for tailors and traders of dishdashas, kummas, massars, and women’s abayas to stop introducing new and "foreign" elements into the traditional Omani dress. The problem had evolved from the sale of "Saudi-style" collared thawbs to offenses that included using embroidery designs traditionally found on massars for kummas, and even the incorporation of well-known international brand names and sports emblems into designs. Omani clientele’s personal preferences have influenced the evolution of certain (now-deemed) "non-Omani" styles, but there remains a shared public understanding of which standard dress elements—including embroidery styles and patterns—are considered Omani.[51] [...] Yeldida Kalfon Stillman and Norman A.

Evidence (2024-05-10): According to Abdelhadi , the relationship between the hijab, the modest dress code, and the formal employment industry is fundamental because, although it serves as an identification for Muslim women, it merges the need to attain paid employment and education without having to compromise on the rules of Islamic dress code. Thus, it ensures that Muslim women can protect the gains of modernity while maintaining the respectability and rights associated with following traditional norms. Many issues have been raised regarding wearing typical clothing for specific situations or places . [...] Contemporary Fashion and Islamic Identity: Contemporary fashion among Muslim women often involves integrating modern trends with traditional Islamic requirements. Sholihan and Elizabeth [16] [...] This section seeks explicitly to identify Muslim women’s interest in modern fashion.

Evidence (2024-07-08): Female guests should respect religious and cultural traditions at a Muslim wedding by dressing modestly and tastefully. Traditional Islamic attire for women is about covering up elegantly with longer, flowy gowns or abayas – usually with an added headscarf known as a Hijab. [...] Modern Muslim wedding attire for female guests has evolved to encompass a range of stunning designs, including embellished gowns, saris, and lehengas. [...] In Asia, for example, modern brides often choose Saris with bold colors and intricate embroidery – or vibrant Shalwar Kameez with ruffled detailing. From statement neckpieces to richly embroidered dupattas (traditional Indian shawls), brides have no shortage of options when it comes to customizing these beautiful outfits according to personal preference and cultural background; some may even opt for an updated version of Abaya wraps in jewel tones for a touch of glamour that still maintains modesty standards.

Evidence (2019-05-20): Here’s the thing, though: Not all Middle Eastern countries are the same. Yes, the idea that a woman should be covered ties in with the idea of modesty, which links back to Islam, but each country interprets and enforces modesty in different ways. In Qatar, women wear the abaya and the shayla—their national black robe/head covering combo—not because they are forced to, but because it’s part of their cultural identity. And even though the traditional dress is black, the abaya and shayla come in a variety of different colors, fits, and details (like rhinestones or embroidery), and women can wear whatever the heck they want underneath, so when it comes to self-expression, women do have freedom of choice.

Evidence (2021-04-04): Several common Islamic attire that Muslim women wear in the Middle Eastern and African countries includes abaya, niqab and chador. Abaya is the free cut, beltless long traditional Arabic dress designed to be worn in public places (Monkebayeva, [...] United Arab Emirates, the local women's national outfit consists of a hijab and an abaya, a long black robe worn over the clothes of the woman that helps to minimise the presence of feminine curves. (Pasha-Zaidi, 2015). In Pakistan, despite not being the main reason for Muslim women to wear the headscarf, the environment or the culture of the country still hold a modest share of the reason for wearing the headscarf or the hijab, and it was a significant factor for modern veiled women who wore modern clothes (Kamal & Fayyaz, 2016). [...] Ferdousi, 2018). In his study conducted in Pakistan, Sethi (2019) found that women wanted more styles of abaya, including integrations of Western fashions and traditional abayas, or Western evening dresses inspired abaya. Young Muslim women who live predominantly in Western cultural contexts, or even their peers who live in traditional Islamic societies, show their elegant and modern hijab by combining it with modern and elegant clothing and brands (Nistor, 2017). In fact, the last decade has seen increasing popularity of the Muslim attire in all age groups of women not only as part of their religion, but also as part of their fashion statement (Zabeen, 2017).

Evidence (2022-03-17): Furthermore, the vast literature on Muslim women, veiling, and the hijab has explored multiple reasons why women choose to wear hijab and challenges earlier hegemonic arguments shaping debates about hijab, feminism, patriarchy, and oppression. [4] Modest Muslim fashion can range from wearing the traditional salwar kameez without makeup or jewelry to wardrobes that may not include hair covering, to wearing a tunic with leggings. Because of its often-modest styles, the salwar kameez is commonly worn to both cultural events, such as dinner parties in the community, and to religious events at the mosque. But another loose, long-sleeve dress over pants with a scarf could also be worn to the mosque. Though a dress and pants would have no specific cultural meaning, it would read just as modest as a salwar kameez with a dupatta. [...] [3] Lewis, Reina . 2019.

Claim: If no one shakes the jar with different species of ants, there is no conflict between ants ! (Social Media Users, 2024-05-01)
Evidence (2024-05-01): The claim attributing the statement to David Attenborough is false. Attenborough denied making such a statement, and entomologists explained that the scenario described in the claim does not accurately reflect ant behavior. Based on their natural instincts and differences in odor, ants are likely to exhibit aggression towards individuals of different species regardless of whether the jar is shaken. Therefore, this claim is not supported by evidence and should be regarded as misleading.
Claim: If no one shakes the jar with different species of ants, there is no conflict between ants ! (Social Media Users, 2024-05-01)
Evidence (2024-10-02): Imagine this: you’ve got a glass jar. You drop a handful of red ants and black ants inside. At first, it’s a peaceful scene. No drama, no fighting—just two different sets of ants, minding their own business. It’s almost like they don’t even notice the other group. Then, you decide to shake things up. Literally. You give that jar a good shake, and BAM—instant chaos. The ants go from chill to savage in seconds, attacking each other like mortal enemies. But here’s the twist: the ants aren’t naturally enemies. The real problem? It’s not them; it’s the person who shook the jar. Without the shake, they’d probably go about their ant lives, peacefully coexisting. [...] At the end of the day, the ants weren’t the enemy. The shake was. And it’s the same with us. Before we go after each other, let’s ask ourselves: who’s really shaking the jar? When we figure that out, we can stop being pawns in someone else’s game and start taking back control of our own. Because united, we’re stronger than any shake could ever make us.

Evidence (2017-11-13): As I had mentioned in a previous column, when we were kids, my friend Eddie and I did this experiment and found that nothing happened unless Eddie shook the jar and then the ants would fight to the death. Well, Facebook fact-checkers were all over this post saying that shaking a jar of different species of ants was misleading. Fact checker Marlo Lee who holds a Bachelor of Science degree from Howard University wrote, "If the author of the post was trying to make a metaphorical statement about human behavior by relating it to that of ants, they might have been better to choose a different animal for the illustration." [...] John Longino, a myrmecologist from the University of Utah, had this to say, "… There are thousands of species of red ants and thousands of species of black ants. Some ants don’t fight no matter what. Some ants will hang out in a jar for a while, but if you shake them, they release formic acid, which makes them all go crazy, attacking anything, including nest mates."

Evidence (2021-06-08): But then some knucklehead comes along and shakes the jar. They don’t shake it vigorously, but they shake it pretty well. The Mason Jar is now shaken, not stirred, but the 200 ants, having been disoriented and "all shaken up," have picked sides. They are no longer just 200 ants living in harmony. They are now 100 red ants versus 100 black ants. And the peaceful Mason Jar is now a full-on battleground. [...] Allowing jar-shaking leaders in our churches, courtrooms, classrooms, and chambers should be criminal. Let’s live, lead, teach, serve and parent with a passion for loving one another. I know. What a preacher thing to say? But really, why is this so hard? Little kids playing together couldn’t care less what kind of ant you are. They don’t care if you are a right-wing ant or a moderate ant. They aren’t concerned about if you are a brown ant or a green ant. They do care if you play nicely. It’s a universal action…being nice. [...] We are all ants, living in a globe-shaped jar. Stop giving the jar shakers a voice. Give your head and heart to serving the fellow ants in the jar with grace, dignity, kindness, and good old-fashioned love. I think we’ll live in a far better jar.

Red and black ants never fight until someone shakes the jar [...] "If you collect 100 black ants and 100 fire ants and put them in a glass jar, nothing will happen. But if you take the jar, shake it violently and leave it on the table, the ants will start killing each other.

Evidence (2023-12-11): Did you know that if you put 100 black ants and 100 red ants in a jar, nothing will happen? But if you shake the jar hard, the ants start killing each other. [...] The true enemy is the one shaking the jar. The same thing happens in human society. So, before we attack each other, we should think about who is shaking the jar!
Claim: If no one shakes the jar with different species of ants, there is no conflict between ants ! (Social Media Users, 2024-05-01)
Evidence (2023-04-24): If you look at Ants as societies, there are two ways that they can engage in what we call "Wars". One of them is more similar to the way that humans think of having wars – battles among the colonies of the same species. The other type involves interactions between different species of ants. Both of these kinds of conflicts are important to ant biology. Ant Wars are a direct, aggressive interaction between ants of different colonies. Ants are engaged in competition with other ants. For example, if one colony monopolizes the supply of food, this source is unavailable to other ants – that is an indirect form of competition. Ant Wars in the context of competition would be the conflict when ants physically engage in direct battles with each other. In fact, one of the things that make ants interesting is that they have conflicts both within species and between species.

Evidence (2021-10-07): Are red ants and black ants peaceful if placed in the same enclosure, but start fighting when an outside force shakes them? No, that's not true: There are thousands of species of red ants and black ants, not just one per color. There is no set rule as to when ants will fight versus not fight. Two professors knowledgeable about ants told us that no shaking is necessary to start a fight between two different species of ants. [...] If you put 100 black ants & 100 red ants in a jar, nothing will happen.But if you shake the jar,the ants will start killing each other. Red will believe black is their enemy while black will believe red is their enemy when the real enemy is the person who shook the jar. Same is also true in our society. Before we fight with each other, we must ask ourselves: who shook the jar?? [...] The picture shows Oecophylla, a notorious territorial ant in Africa and Asia, attacking some other ant. They'll attack anything. There are thousands of species of "red" ants and thousands of species of "black" ants. Some ants dont fight no matter what. Some ants will hang out in a jar for a while, but if you shake them they release formic acid, which makes them all go crazy, attacking anything, including nest mates. Because it is a general alarm signal.

Evidence (2023-11-08): So, if we are the ants, who is the "guy" shaking the jar? Usually it consists of two culprits, political beings (elected politicians, appointed "servants," or those serving in political organizations), and a profit-driven media. Both ‘benefit’ from certain aspects of societal conflict, and both absurdly believe they are also the cure "of that which ails us."
