[QUOTE]Originally posted by newcomer: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Phagocyte: [b] Hello newcomer .... as for the quoted part from your previous posting please refer to three accidents in the ruling time of omar ebn el khattab where he did not apply the clear cut verse of theft punishment and of distributing el zakat on the new moslems and the distribution of the conquered lands on el mojahedeen ..... I am here just commenting on this opinion that u were stating to show u that in fact omar ebn el khattab was doing what modern thinkers ask for ...no verse should be a hinder in front the benefits of the muslims . however , i still did not find any verse saying " cover your hair " and hence any other verse can stand any other explanations .... [This message has been edited by Phagocyte (edited 02 July 2004).][/b][/QUOTE] Assalamu alaykum Phagocyte I agree that the way I phrased that sentence may not have been as clear as it should have been, however, there is a slight difference between one of the Khulafa’ al-Rahideen making an exception to certain rulings for the purposes of maslahah, which were not objected to by the community of the Companions, to a some modern scholars wanting women to abandon the ruling of hijab (which the majority understands to be obligatory on women) with no benefit to the community other than to stop a few people thinking that they look backward and repressed. This is an idea that doesn’t come from Islam where the hijab is to identify a woman as a believer and is part of dressing modestly and is worn with pride by many who do wear it, but was introduced to Christianity by Paul I believe. First Epistle to the Corinthians (11:3-10) “But I would have you know that the head of every man is Christ and the head of the woman is the man, and the head of Christ is God. Every man praying or prophesying with his head covered, disgraces his head. But every woman praying or prophesying with her head uncovered disgraces her head, for it is the same as if she were shaven. For if a woman is not covered, let her be shaven. But if it is a disgrace for a woman to have her hair cut off or her head shaved, let her cover her head. A man indeed ought not to cover his head, because he is the image and glory of God. But woman is the glory of man. For man was not created for woman, but woman for man. This is why the woman ought to have a sign of authority over her head, because of the angels.” [/QB][/QUOTE]
