Answer 1

If they do go against the rule of Islam they'll be beaten and tortured until they give in.

Answer 2

I am not sure- but I've always felt sorry for them...I just HOPE they are.

It's a religion that is very demeaning to women. When I see news coverage that shows muslim women NOT hiding their faces, and just generally living more free,  it makes me happy.

My hats off to those who are rebels...just like the women of America that rebelled to receive the right to VOTE!

Answer 8

No.

Not Compulsory at all

While many Muslims call "Hijab", an Islamic dress code, they completely ignore the fact that, Hijab as a dress code has nothing to do with Islam and nothing to do with QURAN.

In reality "Hijab" is an old pre-Jewish tradition that infiltrated into the hadith books like many innovations that contaminated Islam through alleged Hadith and Sunna.

The traditional Arabs, of all religions, Jews, Christians and Muslims used to wear "Hijab," not because of Islam, but because of tradition. In certain areas of the world, men are the ones who wear the hijab while in others the women do.

THE WORD "KHIMAR" in the QURAN:

"Khimar" is an Arabic word that can be found in the Quran in 24:31 It is the word that the interpreters or translators use to claim that head cover is in the Quran. "Khimar" means, cover, any cover, a curtain is a Khimar, a dress is a Khimar, a table cloth that covers the top of a table is a Khimar, a blanket is a Khimar..etc. Most of the translators, obviously influenced by Hadith (fabrications) translate the word as VEIL or head cover, and thus mislead most people to believe that this verse is advocating the covering of the head.

The first regulation of DRESS CODE for Muslim women is in 7:26, the second is in 24:31 and the third is in

33:59

"O prophet, tell your wives, your daughters, and the wives of the believers that they shall LENGTHEN their garments. Thus, they will be recognized and avoid being insulted. God is Forgiver, Most Merciful." 33:59

In 33:59, God sets the other regulation for the dress code for the Muslim women during the prophet's life.

Although the verse is talking to the prophet which means this regulation applies to the time of the prophet, just like the order in 49:2, the description fits the spirit of Islam (Submission in English), and can teach us a great deal.

In this verse, God, DELIBERATELY, said, tell them, to lengthen their garments, and never said how long is long. God could have said tell them to lengthen their garments to their ankles or to their mid-calf or to their knees, but HE DID NOT. He did not, OUT OF HIS MERCY, not because HE FORGOT as God does not forget. God knows that we will be living in different communities and have different cultures and insists that the minor details of this dress code will be left for the people of every community to hammer for themselves.

It is clear from the above verses that the DRESS CODE for the Muslim women (Submitters) according to the Quran is righteousness and modesty. God knows that this modesty will be understood differently in different communities and that is why He left it open to us to decide for ourselves.

CONCLUSION:

God, the Most Merciful, gave us three basic rules for the Dress Code for Women in Islam (Submission),

(1) The BEST garment is the garment of righteousness.

(2) Whenever you dress , cover your chest (bosoms).

(3) Lengthen your garment.

While these three BASIC rules may not sound enough for those who do not trust God, the TRUE believers know that God is ENOUGH. God could have given us more details to the point of having graphs, designs and color rules, but He , the Most Merciful, wants to give us exactly these very basic rules and leave the rest for us. After these three basic rules every woman is more aware of her circumstances and can adjust her dress for her situation. Any addition to these basic Quranic rules is an attempt to correct God or improve on His merciful design.

We have no obligation to follow but God's rules, just as His messenger did all the time. Innovations and fabrications that added thousands of rules to the women dress code are nothing but idol-worship and should be refused.

Answer 9

You have a point, but then everyone should be permitted to reveal their personality somehow.

Answer 10

In terms of the particular you mention, these women are being influence by western models of fashion.

However, in general, as women become more educated, they are realising that they have far more rights in Islam then they believe they have. This has meant that a generation of Muslim women are practicing the power bestowed upon them by Allah and narrated by the Prophet (PBUH).

The more muslim women who are educated and practice their rights, the more better it will be for Humankind. They will then bring up a generation of children who will know far more than other recent generations, and hopefully bring back a 2nd golden age of Islam where knowledge and innovation spread throughout the globe.

Answer 11

To those muslim women who are going against the rules of islam, i say:  more power to you!

Answer 12

They are learning about their rights as individuals and women and they're wanting to be like themselves and the Islamics don't like that because now they have a mind of their own.

Answer 13

OHH...I'm not Sunni. So I guess I'm off the hook.
