This is a question for Muslim women...

My opinion, women are treated like one big vagina in Islam. Islam forbids any part of the body except the face, hands and feet. And at best the Taliban in Afghanistan are fierce enforcers of ‘hijaab’, which is what covering up is called. Being a former Muslim I can perhaps give you an idea. Being from a mixed Malay-Indian-African family, the matter of covering up is more western than middle eastern. While most Arab countries practice a high level of ‘hijaab’, others place less emphasis, for example, not all Indian women wear the traditional dress and would rather wear a sari, most Berber (Moorish) women also do not wear a veil and even have their faces tattooed. Its all up to the lady’s upbringing. Some Islamic cultures are strict like in Saudi Arabia, others are less fanatical. personally I find it insulting to women forcing them to cover their whole bodies. Oh ja, how can we forget the hordes of Arab men that go to western destinations to enjoy a ‘view’ or too, maybe more than a view… And at home they act all innocent…

sardonicol… There are muslims who don’t where hijab… and they’re GREAT muslims comprairing to other muslms… and I lived in Saudi Arabia… it’s not as bad as you’re describing it… it depends on whih area you’re in… like for example, in Jeddah… some people go around in their clothes, some people go around without hijab, some people go around with coloured hijab, and some people go around in their pj’s!! and no, islam doesn’t treat women like a Vagina… it depends on the area your in… I’m sorry, sardonicol, but your idea about islam is very twisted… you need to fix it, you haven’t seen real muslims… do not judge muslims from saudi people… besides, if an American comes to england for vacation, and he was a reaaally bad person, and he was a muslim… would I judge the whole country that they’re all bad people??? No. and that’s what everyone out there is doing… there are bad people everywhere, wether it’s in India, America, Britain, Indonesia, Pakistan, Egypt, EVERYWHERE!! and again, you need to read more books about islam, your idea about it is seriously twisted…

I doubt she was very traditional, very traditional muslims would not have even considered becoming a model… It depends really on the community you belong to, whether you choose to accept their values, and then there are certain muslims who are pretty liberal (not considered ‘real muslims’ by other sects) who dont really follow any of the traditional rules…

cute Question… well… it’s supposed to be for her own good… you can wear whatever you want… but not a bathing suit!! because it’ll show all her body,,, well almost all her body… only around men I think… aruond women or girls it’s fine I think… but she’s not supposed to like… stop going to the beach because of that, you know what I mean? she can do what ever she wants to do… just without showing off her body… ooorr annnd why not ask her?? I think u’ll get better answers… lol, I’ve just been living with muslims “in a muslim country* for a pretty long time, so yea… that’s my answer… but hey!! Islam is honestly just amazing… don’t get her wrong!!

muslims are not allowed to expose their body to public

The Islamic veil is basically identical to clothing of traditional representation of Mary. Islam didn’t invent the veil, it rather endorsed it. It’s a sign of faith, modesty and chastity which serves to protect the devout from molestation.

I used to b a muslim. I SCOURED the whole quran (the holy book) and there was NOTHING bout covering urself. its all crap. I still believe in God but im NOT a muslim because I think that religion gives you standards. I live in pakistan (muslim majority) and its a CRIME to convert from muslim to n e thing else. people have the rite to kill someone if they go from islam.

im talking bout in the country you can kill someone 4 leavin islam. the religion preaches tolerance to fellow human beings.

Fanatical?! Is following your religion’s rules fanatical? If so,then every religious person in the world is a ‘’fanatic’’.
