He is the praise, the praise-giver and the one who is praised.

The worst thing society has normalised is attributing the tragedy of karbala only to shias when infact it's biggest tragedy in Islam, if you can't mourn atleast have respect for the incident.

@Zahrathee God also allowed us to show our beauty to our male family members and all women hence the argument does not make sense. I agree that other secondary reasons exist, like reducing the potential for haram in society but those reasons are not about wanting men to be content with you.

@wailoftheney You’re right, your man is not your God.. so if you’re going to do something it is to get closer to the Face of God and hiding your beauty only for your husband so that you aren’t pushed away from His mercy, which is reflected in your relationship with your Imam of your time.

Women do not wear hijab for the pleasure of their future husbands.

@eternallymewing Dear, it is a good thing that your fitrah helps you think critically rather than accepting blindly. However, this should lead to re-evaluating your own practice, not to abandoning it all together. We should neither center our lives around men nor society. Our only center is God.

@wailoftheney dumb shit like this makes me wanna take it off inshallah i will get forehead reduction and take it off

@Zahrathee A woman is not required to hide her beauty for her future husband. A woman is required to hide her beauty for the sake of God and God alone.

@wailoftheney I don’t think the original post meant that, what he meant was that a woman is required to hide their beauty for their future husbands as opposed to it being used as a meant to pleasure their husbands, which seem very similar in wording but very different in meanings

@YusufalAshari @juminocoded implied nuance

@juminocoded @wailoftheney That's not what the original post on the qt is saying now is it

@VinnyMeeee There is nothing more 'practical' than the divine command itself.. and nothing better than following it for the sake of itself. All other reasons attributed to wearing hijabs are either of secondary importance or human attempts to make sense of the command.

@wailoftheney im not a jihadi so im careless with what i say. dont take it too wrong. but you are saying the command and im saying what it really means practically. and islam aspires to be very practical. hijab with face cover is needed so no identification or haram thoughts are even possible

@VinnyMeeee Hijab exists because God commands it so, wearing it with the intention of "my husband will be pleased with me if I do so" distorts the pure intention of wearing it for the sake of achieving God's pleasure.

@wailoftheney do women even understand islam. calling it pleasure maybe too much. but hijab exists to protect family life from other eyes. meaning no man other than immediate family especially husband can see you properly. it exists to be a symbol of hiding you.

Held a presentation in linguistics... First thing they saw is my Sayyed Hassan screensaver

@mourningskull We are clearly not talking about the same thing. My post references ex-hijabis flaunting their decision to take it off with pride that they have liberated themselves from something bad. It was never about women who simply and quietly chose to not wear it.

aaaaaand your answer is........ *drum roll* 🥁 still INCORRECT! 📢❌ ex-hijabis choose to not wear the hijab because they simply have a personal preference not to have a piece of clothing stuck to their head in every public space as it makes them uncomfortable. ✅ last month in my saudi university, a mandate was announced stating that all saudi male students *must* attend dressed in the full proper shemagh (saudi headdress), and let me tell you, NOBODY liked it! to this day, the boys complain about having to wear a full-on headscarf in the hot summer. are you so dim-witted as to think that the only reason a hijabi woman would not want to wear a hijab is to "please men"? which "men" are my classmates trying to "please" by not wanting to wear the shemagh to class? imagine their reactions if they were told they needed to wear the shemagh in all public spaces their entire lives...

The sad thing about the ex-hijabis is that they flaunt their decision as the refusal of submitting to the will of others. In reality, they hate the hijab because they want to be liked and wanted by society, a society that gives no value to a woman beyond her body.

@mourningskull The contradiction is that they claim to have overcome submission to the will of man which they clearly have not because a human that does not care what society thinks of them would never feel so uncomfortable by a piece of clothing that wearing it affects their life fundamentally

@mourningskull I did not suggest they are promiscuous. I stated that they have the wish to please society, which is something every human experiences.

@notokay12345 Muslim society does not solely care about womens minds either. There too exists a pressure to please the public and a competition of pious appearance. The only true freedom lies in rejecting the wish to please society and man in general and instead wishing to please God.

@wailoftheney 100% agree. While the hijabi society cares only about women's minds. They don't care if a woman's body is showing or not, since it's no concern of theirs. They don't say "hey, your hair is showing", or "your clothes are too tight". Coz, ofc, it doesn't concern them.

The Islam of many societies is not submission to God but to idols of the self hidden by cloaks of false piousness. Truly, we are our own enemies.

We judge others with a conceitedness as if we are saints, far too holy to be touched by doubt! Our faith does not rule over more than appearance yet we blame this age for the emptiness of our mosques!

Recently someone in our community expressed doubts about the reappearance of our Imam. The reaction was judgement, gossip and disgust. We talk about how the entire world seems to be at war with Islam but truly, we are our worst enemy.

Glory to Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, in life and in martyrdom (June 2026)

At least a break, room to breathe and time to grieve.
