    If a woman has the freedom to show her body, then she must have the freedom to cover it as well.

      That is true but is it really freedom?? when it is imposed by some patriarchal views? afer all , what is the reason of wearing one? I may be worn but isnt it so men are not tempted?? that i crap. God, if he exists, made you beautiful and then they believe he demands to cover that beauty... more nosense comming from religion

      Adrian Rivas Hijab is worn to protect oneself. God made you beautiful, yes, but god loves you, and wants to protect you, like how you'd protect a ruby, or protect a new car. Women are cherished in Islam, and if it is unfair, men were given the order FIRST to be modest and dress modestly.

      Da, da, and to guard themselves against lust, which is to be reserved for between husbands and wives. Allah specifically ordered men to control themselves first before he said anything about modesty to women.

    • @alreem9891
      @alreem9891 8 років тому +3

      Art P Your comment is illogical. Nobody goes up to nuns and asks, gee why on earth are you covering your head?? Your religion must be so oppressive!
      And as for you feel like it's a sort of discrimination, you need to reevaluate your mentality 'cause that makes no sense.

    • @areej5732
      @areej5732 8 років тому +3

      +Art P The hijab is worn to cover our hair. It's a symbol for modesty as we cannot show anything but our face and hands and feet up to the ankle. How are we oppressive? We don't wear it to show we are with the Sharia law, the hijab means we love our religion, and it's not worn to discriminate others. This is the same as saying anyone that wears crosses are discriminating others. The cross is supposed to protect you, just as the hijab is worn to protect ourselves and from the devil. But of course wearing a cross is okay. We are asked to wear one, and we do. Simple as is.

    • @artpearls
      @artpearls 8 років тому

      +Areej Irfan You are asked to wear one because it is part of the Sharia Law. It is ordained in Holy Qur'an. (Verse 33:59). 47 muslim-majority countries in the world practise Sharia Law. It is well known that the rights of the women in these countries are in dire state. Now connect the dots. That explains how hijab, niqab, chadors and similar garbs symbolize Sharia Law which in turns symbolizes oppression. These are all facts not opinions.

    • @areej5732
      @areej5732 8 років тому

      Art P How is wearing the hijab and niqab oppression though? Wearing this does not make you any lower than anyone else and does not make men greater. If anything it makes women seem higher when it actually says that women are like diamonds.

    • @artpearls
      @artpearls 8 років тому

      +Areej Irfan Looks like we are going in circles, aren't we? As a muslimah, stand up for the voiceless fellow muslim ladies facing the oppression faced by them in muslim-majority countries. Be the change you want to see (Qur'an verse 13:11) in this society, in these times whereever you have immigrated to in the west. Do not hide behind your hijab, your faith and be afraid.Transcend that fear of being judged and spurned by your community and family (refer to Qur'an 4:135). Wearing hijab is gender segregation and gender segregation is so morally wrong. Have the courage to move forward so you can live together without any tension with non-Muslims. Be honest with yourself so you can be closer to that creator, who have created for who you are.

    In my parent's generation, it was common for Christian women to wear hats in church to "avoid offending God". No one claimed that it was oppression. Some Jewish women cover their hair in the temple for the same reason. If women wear a hijab by choice I'm all for their right to choose.

    I really like one of the reasons some girls wear a hijab! A friend of mine told me that it was purely her decision to wear it because she wants her future husband to fall in love with her soul and not her beauty (in her culture hair is considered to be one of the main beauty items)

      Hijab is for both physical modesty, which is why women and close family members are the only ones who can see us without our hijab, and a general spiritual connection with God, which is why we wear hijab when we pray even when there are no men around.

  • @Disaster3nby
    @Disaster3nby 8 років тому +87

    I need this to be clear for everyone: You cannot just pick up a Quran, read through, expect to understand it and make judgements out of context.
    Islam is such a complex religion that not even Muslims can understand the true meaning behind the Quran on our own. That's why we have scholars who study the Quran for years and years and decipher it and explain to us in crucial detail. It is such a complex process that not just anyone can pick up the Quran and expect to understand it right away. We read the Quran to learn its teachings and when in doubt, seek help from the scholars to clear things up.
    I see a lot of people on the internet pulling out random verses from the Quran and quoting them for being violent, hateful, pedophilic, etc when they didn't even understand the story that comes along with the verse. It was completely taken out of context.
    So when I say "Get your facts right." I don't mean "Read the Quran and you'll understand." I mean "Bring the Quran and ask someone of knowledge to clear it up for you, go for a lecture if you need to, cross reference and check the history,"
    so once again, you can't just read the Holy Quran and expect to understand its complex messages and meanings and make your own judgments upon them.

    • @joyphillips1821
      @joyphillips1821 8 років тому +2

      +OtakuYonderu : Actually if you do read it in context, you will find that it contains parts from Zoastrianism, Christianity, and Judaism.... for the most part. While I can't expect to be a scholar from Zoastrianism, I understand fully the parts from Christianity and Judaism since they are closely linked. When people pull up verses, we reconcile history with scriptures..... At least that is how it is in Christianity and Judaism.... Roman Empire, Pharoah, etc.... all makes sense in the light of what is going on at the time( Christianity and Judaism).....It is also exactly how it appears; there is no double meaning......... What doesn't make sense is how different the Quran is from that.....It seems to be self referencing..... Sort of like Hitler's Mein Kampf.....

    • @Disaster3nby
      @Disaster3nby 8 років тому +1

      +Joy Phillips The Holy Quran is in fact a compilation of God's words passed down through the Angel Jibreel to the Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) to be recited to the people. And all of the information was in fact divine knowledge. So for it to be self referencing, I wouldn't see it as a surprise.

    • @joyphillips1821
      @joyphillips1821 8 років тому +1

      OtakuYonderu You don't understand.... There is no proof of the angel Jibreel visited..... yet you claim it to be true. All I said was that the Christianity and Judaism claims are true because they correspond to history. We had a roman empire, pharaohs, etc..... There is NO self referencing there. With the Quran, it only references itself ( self -referencing) so only it believes itself to be true.

    • @joyphillips1821
      @joyphillips1821 8 років тому

      *****: The bible is not contradictory; I don't know about the Quran, but Jesus explained what you are talking about when he told his largely UNEDUCATED disciples this.
      ( Mark 4: 11-12)
      11 He replied, “You are permitted to understand the secret[a] of the Kingdom of God. But I use parables for everything I say to OUTSIDERS, 12 so that the Scriptures might be fulfilled:
      ‘When they see what I do,
      THEY WILL LEARN NOTHING.
      When they hear what I say,
      THEY WILL NOT UNDERSTAND.
      Otherwise, they will turn to me
      and be forgiven.’[b]
      -------------------------------------------------------
      In other words, unless you are really looking for God, these words will not make sense.....

    • @LlyneM-rf3gd
      @LlyneM-rf3gd 8 років тому +2

      Otaku: God would not want to inspire a book that could not be understood by all. Leaving interpretation up to various islamic scholars is what inter islamic wars are all about and it denies the right of worshippers to know what God is saying. God would never purposely try to make it so ambiguous that people could not understand. I hear so many Muslims say that Quran is written clearly and easy to understand, and when people find fault with it, then "it's so complicated that you need a Muslim scholar to interpret it for you". That's just muslim doublespeak, which is extremely common.

    My husband works away and i visit him in manchester when he can't come home. Recently i never had a problem with travelling when i wear my hijab. But the last time, i travelled to manchester. i felt like i was an outcast. A woman had gotten on from the crewe station and you could tell she was drinking from the plastic cup of alcohol. And she wouldn't stop staring at me. And then at another station an old man got on and sat next to her and they began talking and looking at me and whispering to themselves and continued to stare at me for the entire remainder of the journey. Im a 28 year old british born muslim who was born and bred in cardiff and i have never ever experienced such behaviour. Next time ill just drive to manchester.

      Dude, I'm not saying "The Middle East is the most peaceful place in the world and everyone there is free to express their beliefs anyway they want and also they respect everyones rights, specially women's". I do see several problems in the world, and radical Islamism is one of them, a major one even. But saying that the western world is absolutely free and peaceful is being as blind as the ones who think theres nothing wrong with the Middle East. You said "in western world they can wear whatever they want, in cas you didn't notice", but I just gave and example of a woman who was prohibited from wearing wathever she wanted IN the western world. I'm not saying that countries who force women to wear hijab are not a problem, but I do believe that a society who judges and excludes women who wear hijab are a problem too. Freedom isn't freedom if it's only for christians and white people.

    • @lility2017
      @lility2017 8 років тому +1

      Right, so basically you also shouldn't wear big jackets because maybe you're hiding bombs under it, specially if you're muslim, which makes you automatically suspect, just like being black makes you automatically suspect if there's a murder or a robbery. It's okay to publically humiliate and disrespect peoples religions in name of security, when the woman had her face exposed, only her hair and her body covered, the same way christian nuns do.
      And also, how exactly being prohibited of wearing headscarves and long sleeves and scarves because "you could be hiding something" is equal to being prohibited of endorsing the mass genocide of specific ethnic/religious groups?

    First of all I would like to say that I am a non-Muslim hijab wearing woman, I come from an EU country and I was raised Catholic. I follow a pagan religion and work and pray with Muslims on a regular basis. I started wearing hijab as a young girl even though everyone around me told me to take it off and that they hated it. Still I wear it. Men have followed me home, stood outside my house and threatened to hurt me. I work with Muslims because they are amazing and I am safe in a mosque from persecution. No one looks at me differently for wearing hijab rather they admire my commitment to a non obligation religious symbol. As it is desired of a woman in my faith, and more of a tradition.
    I HAVE A CHOICE, ALL THE MUSLIM WOMEN I HAVE EVER MET, HAVE A CHOICE, AS DECREED BY ALLAH! AND I ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THERE ARE WOMEN IN SOME MIDDLE EASTERN COUNTRIES FORCED TO WEAR BURKA, NIQAB AND HIJAB. I THINK IT IS HORRIBLE AND UNEQUAL IN THE EYES OF MAN AND ALL TYPES OF GODS OR A GOD. Stop saying you feel bad for us hijabis cause we are "forced" to wear them. We are not. Muslim women are not oppressed. Even in Qur'an Allah says women are equal to men. But some men have taken it upon themselves to make women their slaves and take away their rights, Allah has never spoke of such an ideal and men have made religion their own and messed with the message of Islam. These are not Muslim men. They are fascists who live only for their own pleasure and make everyone else serve them. They are disgusting and will beg on their knees on the day of judgement when they tell Allah what they have done to the queens of Islam. The mothers, sisters and daughters of all man kind.

Bible says: Don't kill, don't steal, have a respect for your parents, Don't cheat on your wife... This is the modern structure of good behaviour. That's why the Islam is such a target for not understanding and hate. Beacause when I was reading Quran: There were lines such as: Women are less than men, When you are afraid that your wife won't obey you beat her, kill all the people who try to take you away from you're religion. These things are basically breaking the laws. At least in non-islamic countries in the world. If you go along these lines you're taking away other people rights and freedom. I'm not saying all muslims are aggressive and support violence. But I just could not say I'm Muslim, because of these (in my oponion bad) things written in Quran. If you are suppossed to go along with Quran. How can someone be a muslim voluntarily? Like I have already said. I'm an Atheist and I don't need a god or a book to behave the right way!

    I am a hijabi. I have feelings and I am a human just like you. I like food. I like music. I like fashion and clothes. I like everyone. I like animals. I like dancing. I like singing. I like traveling. I like learning about other countries. I like nature. I respect everyone. But it sad that I have to always smile and show people that I am not a threat. I don't want to hurt people. I want peace. I want love. I dream of becoming a leader and fixing the world. I dream of giving food to poor. I dream of helping and loving orphans. I love people of all race and religions. I am against violence, bullying and terrorism. And I hate how I always have to justify myself to everyone. I am a hijabi, and my extra piece of clothing shouldn't change how you treat me.

    A few weeks ago I was at Target with my mom and my brother when I saw a woman wearing a hijab. I had a shocked look on my face because I had never actually seen someone wearing a hijab in public before. She had instantly put a smile on her face which made me smile back. It wasn't until a few minutes later I realized how sad it was to have someone feel obligated to smile just to show that they aren't what a lot of people would assume they would be. I wanted to walk up to that lady and tell her how brave she was to do this and that she is beautiful and not to listen to any of the hate and judgement.

      Truly Christianity has more reasons to veil than Islam but many rebel against it. Spiritually the veil shows the covering of a woman's hair or glory which Jesus did when he was veiled in flesh to hide his glory. Moses veiled his face when among the children of Israel so they could not see the glory but removed it when he went up on the mountain to talk to God. In like manner we see the perfect example of a prophet like unto Moses when Jesus took Peter, James and John up on the mountain and the veil of his flesh was removed as he was transfigured and all three beheld the glory of God. The veil is also signifies the covering of the Spirit of God upon the saints and church as in Isaiah 30. The veil is removed for the test of jealousies and judgment begins in the house of God. many women do not realize that when they remove the veil they have no covering for their sin before their jealous God and Husband Jesus. Also, Rebecca veiled herself to meet Isaac and he being the child of promise is an example of Jesus. When Christian women expect to meet Jesus in a service to hear from him it is disrespectful for them to meet him unveiled. Not only in scriptures, but in deeper judgments women are to veil and we have more reasons than Islam. This is why I do respect the women who have veiled and have no desire to be as men. That pride which makes women want to be as men forsakes the important spiritual similitude of the saints being covered by the Spirit of God and women being created as a similitude of the bride of Christ, which are the words of Adam which the apostle Paul explained in Ephesians 5: 31, 32. Whether Niqab, Hijab, Chador, Burka, or chapel veil, they are all important in women being that example of the bride of Christ following Mary's example. If only more women would see this and return to veiling it would please God. May God bless.

    Why do people in today's society care so much if someone wears some cloth around their head? It changes nothing about them but their physical appearance and in the grand scheme of things it shouldn't have such meaning for everyone, just the person who's wearing it for their own personal/religious reasons. And its also sad that people who wear a hijab have to worry for their lives and feel like they are representing a very large and diverse group of people.

Would someone always answer (without getting angry) of non-Christians constantly asking about the trinity? (the ones that follow the church's doctrine of the trinity) Christians get angry at Christians themselves for asking.
