below:-
Shaykh Muhammad Naasir
ad-Deen al-Albaani
What is the ruling for wearing the 'Niqaab'
(face-
veil) these days, and gloves? And further, if she feels
there
is a chance of 'fitnah' so she wants to wear this,
but the parents
refuse to let her, then what should she
do?
Ans. If
their refusal only refers to her not covering her
face and hands, then
she has to obey her parents in that,
but if their refusal includes more
than that, then,
"There is no obedience to the creation in disobedience
to
the Creator." Since covering the body except for the face
and
hands is obligatory for the Muslim woman, and
covering her face and
hands is not obligatory but
'mustahabb' (recommended). So if the
parents do not want
her to cover her face and hands, then there is no
harm in
her obeying them and no sin in it, as opposed to what
would
be the case if they wished her to uncover other
than that, in which
case she owes no obedience to them
since that is a
sin.
What is the ruling
regarding a woman's wearing a scarf
on her head?
Ans. That
is not enough - she has to wear a 'khimaar'
which covers the head and
chest. The scarf is not loose
fitting and does not cover
enough.
Should not the
shoulders also be covered by it?
Yes, that is the 'khimaar'. It
is a wide cover covering
the head and shoulders. When we say that it
covers the
chest, then it covers the shoulders since it is wide.
But
as regards the head-scarf we often see a woman wearing
it
revealing a part of the neck due to it, but the 'khimaar'
covers
the neck and shoulder, and Allaah ta'aala orders
that
saying:
WALYADRIBNA BIKHUMURIHINNA 'ALAA JUYOOBIHINNA
The
head-scarf is as they say these days a compromise,
and there is no such
thing in Islaam!
Many people hold that the
khimaar' is a covering for
the face.
Ans. That is ignorance
with regard to the language. The
'khimaar' is a covering for the head
and the man also
wears the khimaar - putting it upon his head - the
same
as for the woman. He ta'aala said:
WALYADRIBNA
BIKHUMURIHINNA 'ALAA JUYOOBIHINNA
If the khimaar covered the face
then He ta'aala would not
say WALYADRIBNA meaning pull/draw together,
but he would
have said "let fall" [ using the verb 'sadala' ]. This
is
ignorance regarding the language.

Straw's veil comments spark anger |
![A Muslim woman wearing a veil]()
Mr Straw says covering faces makes good
community relations difficult | Jack
Straw, the ex-foreign secretary, has angered Muslim groups by
suggesting women who wear veils can make relations between
communities more difficult.
The Blackburn MP says the veil is a "visible statement of
separation and of difference" and he asks women visiting
The Islamic Human Rights Commission said the Commons leader's
request was selective discrimination.
But the Muslim Council of Britain said it should be up to women
to decide.
Muslims make up about a quarter of the population of Blackburn,
and Mr Straw said he had carefully considered his remarks.

Later Mr Straw, who has defended the right for women to
wear headscarves, asked BBC Radio Lancashire: "Would those
people who do wear the veil think about the implications for
community relations?"
The remarks attracted an angry response from some
organisations representing Muslims.

chairs the organisation Protect-Hijab, suggested the
"appalling" comments showed "a deep lack of
understanding".
Mr Straw was putting women "into a very awkward
position by compromising the faith they believe in and
that is ill-placed", Council of Lancashire Mosques
chairman Hamid Kureshi told BBC Radio Five Live.

And a political rival - Liberal Democrat
constitutional affairs spokesman Simon Hughes -
questioned whether it was Mr Straw's place to question
the way that members of the public dressed.
"I don't think it's the job for somebody who
represents the whole community to say to somebody who
comes through the door, 'Do you mind if you dress
differently in order to talk to me?'," Mr Hughes said.
Oliver Letwin, the Conservatives' policy chief,
told the BBC's Question Time programme that if women
wanted to wear a veil they should do so. He described it
as "dangerous" to suggest they should not be allowed to.
Dr Daud Abdullah of the Muslim Council of Britain
said individual Muslim women could choose to remove part
of their veil.
"Even within the Muslim community, the scholars
have different views on this.

Jack Straw said he had carefully
considered his
remarks |
"Our view is that if it is going to cause
discomfort and that can be avoided then it can be done."
Dr Abdullah added, however, that covering hair
remained "obligatory" for Muslim women.
Mr Straw was home secretary from 1997 to 2001, and
then foreign secretary until 2005, a period which
included the build-up to, and invasion of, Iraq.

{Invite (mankind, O Muhammad ) to the Way of your Lord (i.e. Islam) with wisdom (i.e. with the Divine Inspiration and the Qur'an) and fair preaching, and argue with them in a way that is better. Truly, your Lord knows best who has gone astray from His Path, and He is the Best Aware of those who are guided.} (Holy Quran-16:125)
{And who is better in speech than he who [says: "My Lord is Allah (believes in His Oneness)," and then stands straight (acts upon His Order), and] invites (men) to Allah's (Islamic Monotheism), and does righteous deeds, and says: "I am one of the Muslims."} (Holy Quran-41:33)
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "By Allah, if Allah guides one person by you, it is better for you than the best types of camels." [al-Bukhaaree, Muslim]
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) also said, "Whoever calls to guidance will have a reward similar to the reward of the one who follows him, without the reward of either of them being lessened at all." [Muslim, Ahmad, Aboo Daawood, an-Nasaa'ee, at-Tirmidhee, Ibn Maajah]
