The Philosophy of Hijab in the Context of the Qur'an

Abstract

Hijab is a commandment of God and the Sunnah of the wives of the Prophet )peace be upon him( which has come down to us through the Qur’anic verses, especially Surah Noor and Surah Al-Ahzab, and more than seventy hadiths. It is for every special and ordinary woman. The beginning of the curtain was made from the houses of the pure wives and the common people were commanded not to enter the houses of the Prophet (peace be upon him) without permission and if they want to take any goods from the mothers of the believers, they should take them from behind the curtain. "And when you ask them for something, ask behind the veil, it is more pure for your hearts and their hearts." Ayat al-Kareema is clearly telling that it is very important to arrange a veil between stranger men and women to achieve purity of heart. This emphatic order given to the purest women i.e. the wives of the pure and the purest people of the ummah i.e. the Companions of the Prophet (peace be upon them) clarifies the importance of the veil. Then this order was not exclusive to the wives of the pure and the Companions of the Prophet, but it is common to the entire Ummah. Islamic hijab does not mean that Islam has restricted women Imprisoned in their homes to stay inside and never go out (as is the common misconception today), rather Islam has allowed women to go out with veils when necessary and considered all types of veils. What time and at what place should a woman wear full hijab, and when should she only veil her movement, speech and gaze? The Holy Quran describes the types of veil in a very good way. We will analyze the types of hijab in the light of Quran.
