CHAPTER (7) CURTAIN FOR WOMEN

   Question: - Why does Islam insult women by keeping them in veils?                                                                                       Answer: - The condition of women in Islam is strongly attacked by the secular media.  They present veils and Islamic clothing as examples of women's enslavement in Islamic law.  Before we consider the reasons behind the religious instruction of the veil, let us study the position of women in pre-Islamic society.                                                                                   1. In the past, women were insulted and used only for lust, the following examples from history fully explain the fact that the place of women in the ancient civilization was reduced to such an extent that they  Even primary human respect was not given (a) Women of Babylonian Civilization were humiliated and deprived of all rights and rights under Babylonian Law.  If a man killed a woman, instead of punishing her, his wife was put to death.  (b) Greek civilization This civilization is considered to be the best among the ancient civilizations.  According to this 'extremely superior' system, women have all rights KE SexIn Greek mythology, an imaginary woman named "Pandora" is believed to be the root of all human suffering.  The Greeks considered women to be an inferior race in comparison to men.  Although their purity was priceless and respected, the Greeks later indulged in arrogance and lust.  (c) Roman Civilization When Roman civilization was at the height of its glory, at that time a man had the right to take away the life of his wife.  Prostitution and nudity were common among the Romans.  (d) Egyptian Civilization The Egyptians considered women to be a form of Satan.  (e) Pre-Islamic Arabia Before Islam, women were considered lowly in Arabia, and whenever a girl was born, she was usually buried alive.                                                                                                                               2. Islam raised women up and gave them equal status and it expects them to maintain their status Islam raised women up and will maintain it about 1400 years ago.  He has given them his rights and he expects them to maintain their level.  Curtains for men Generally people understand that veils are related to women only.However, in the Holy Qur'an, Allah describes a veil of items before women, "Tell the believers to keep their eyes low and protect their maidens. This will make them more holy and Allah is well aware of everything they do." At that moment when a man's eyes fall on a woman, he should.  that he may lower his gaze.  Purdah for women It is said in Surah Nisa of the Qur'an - "And tell the women who believe in Allah to keep their eyes low and protect their paternal wives and they should not show their makeup and ornaments, there is no objection to this."  No, what is normally seen and they should put on their breasts veils and do not reveal their makeup to anyone except their husbands, their fathers, their sons.                                                                     3. Necessary conditions for veils According to the Holy Qur'an and Hadith (Prophet's statement), it is necessary to pay attention to the following six things for veils - (i) The first is the veil of the body which should be covered.  It is different for male and female.  It is necessary for the man to cover from the navel to the knees and for the woman it is necessary to cover the whole body except the face and wrists of the hands.  Although they can also hide the open part if they want.  Some clerics of Islam insist that the face and hands are also an essential part of the veil.Don't do it  There are other things which are the same for men and women.                                                                                                            (ii) the cloth worn should be loose and it should not reveal the parts of the body                  (iii) the cloth worn should not be transparent so that one can see the inner part of the body.                                                                                                                                    (iv) The clothes worn should not be flashy so as to attract the opposite sex.                  (v) The clothes worn should not match those of the opposite sex.  The clothing worn should not be such as to mark a particular non-Muslim religion and be a symbol of that religion.                                                                                                                                      4. The veil gives an idea of ​​the behavior and conduct of a person along with other things.  In addition to the six criteria of full veil, clothing (clothing) is also embodied in itself ethical behavior and conduct.  If a person adopts only the criteria of clothing, then he is following the limited meaning of the screen.  Along with the curtains, the eyes and thoughts should also be covered with the cloth.  The movements, conversations and behavior of a person are also taken under the purview of the screen.                                                                            5. Curtain prevents abuse.  The reason why veils are preached to women is mentioned in Surah Al-Ahzab of the Holy Qur'an - "O Prophet, tell your wives, daughters and believing women that they (when going out) cover themselves with upper garments."  It is very easy for them to be known in this way and to be protected from abuse, and Allah is Most Forgiving and Most Merciful."The Holy Qur'an says that the veil has been preached to women to be seen as maidens and that the veil prevents abuse from them.                           .6 Example of Twin Sisters Suppose two equally beautiful twin sisters are walking on the road.  One should be completely covered in veils except for wrist and face and the other wearing western wear mini skirt (chota lehenga) and blouse.  If a ruffian is standing on the side to tease a girl, then in such a situation who will he tease with the girl who is in the veil or who is wearing a mini skirt.  Naturally he will misbehave with the other girl.  Such clothes indirectly invite teasing and misbehavior to the opposite sex.  The Qur'an rightly says that the veil forbids molestation and oppression of women.                                          7. Death Penalty for Rapists Under Islamic law, the punishment for rape is death.  Many people wonder at this punishment by calling it ruthless, some say that Islam is a wild religion I asked a simple question to non-Muslims that God forbid that someone rapes your mother or sister  And if you are made a judge and the rapist is brought before you, what punishment will you give to that guilty?  I got only one answer from everyone that the death penalty would be given.  Some said that they would punish him by giving him pain.  My next question was that if someone rapes your mother, wife or sister, then you want to give death penalty to him but the same incident happens with someone else's mother, wife or sister.  So you say that giving death penalty is wildness.  Why is there this double standard in this situation?                                                                                                                        8. Western society makes false claims of upliftment of women Western claim of women's freedom is a pretense, with the help of which they exploit their body, pollute their soul, and deprive them of their dignity  .  Western society claims that it has raised women, on the contrary, they have placed their concubines and society's butterflies, which are mere toys in the hands of the sex-obsessed and sex-seekers, behind the colorful veils of art and culture.  are hidden.                                                                                                                               9. America has the highest rate of rape.  America is considered the most advanced country in the world.  1990 AD  The FBI report of that year shows that there were 1,02555 rape incidents in the US that year, the report also states that only 16 percent of the total such incidents came to light.  Thus in 1990 AD.  To get an accurate estimate of the incidence of rape in India, the sum obtained by multiplying the above number by 6.25 is 6,40,968.  If this whole number is divided into 365 days of the year, then the number of 1756 comes out in daily terms.  According to another report, 1900 rape incidents are reported in America every day.  According to the National Crime Victimization Survey Bureau of Justice Statistics (U.S. of Justice), 3,07,000 incidents were recorded in 1996 alone.  But only 31 percent of true events were recorded.  Thus 3,07,000 × 3,226 = 9,90,322 rape incidents in the year 1996 AD.  Registered in  On an average, 2713 rape incidents per day are from 1996 AD.  Happened in America.  Just consider that there is a rape every 32 seconds in America.  It seems that American rapists are very fearless.  The FBI's 1990 AD.  The U.S. report further states that in cases of rape, only 10 percent of rapists can be arrested.  that1.6 percent of the total number.  50% of the rapists were released before trial.  This meant that only 0.8 percent of the rapists could be prosecuted.  In other words, if a person is involved in 125 incidents of rape, he is likely to be punished only once.  Many would consider this a good gamble. The report also estimates that only 50 percent of those sentenced have been sentenced to less than a year.  However, according to US law, there should be a sentence of seven years.  With regard to those who are convicted of rape for the first time, the judges go soft.  Just consider that a person commits rape 125 times but the opportunity to be tried comes only once and then 50 percent of the people get the benefit of the judge's leniency and the sentence of less than one year is the punishment of any such person.  The rapist is found on whom this crime has been proved.  Imagine that scene if the curtains were followed in America.  Whenever a man looked at a woman and an impure thought emerged in his mind, he would lower his gaze; every woman would wear a veil, that is, cover the whole body except the wrist and face.  After this, if anyone raped her, she would have been given the death penalty.  I ask you, in such a situation, would the rape rate in America have remained constant or decreased?                                                                                        10. Islamic law will definitely reduce the rate of rape. Naturally as soon as Islamic law is implemented, its result will definitely be positive.  If Islamic law is implemented in any part of the world, whether America or Europe, there will be peace in society.  The veil does not insult women, but lifts them up and protects their purity and dignity
