Should Hijab Be Mandatory in Muslim Countries? Dr. Shabir Ally & Dr. Safiyyah Ally

- #Mahsa Amini died in police custody after being charged with violating laws about modest clothing in #Iran. Women are taking to the streets in protest. Should an Islamic state enforce the hijab? Dr. Shabir Ally says the Muslim polity has a basic responsibility to command good and forbid wrong. He says Muslim woman's clothing has been much misunderstood in Islamic law, such that covering of the entire body is presented as a given, rather than recognizing that there are gradations to modesty. He says that during the time of the Prophet, peace be upon him, it is not so clear that the modesty standards that we consider essential were in place. Dr. Safiyyah Ally says that even if something is deemed obligatory religiously, that does not mean the state must have laws commanding it. Too many laws make people rebel, but she says a Muslim culture will naturally develop in Muslim majority countries which will guide the people in developing social mores.

Hijab meant for modesty and protection against men of bad desire. But enforcing law to the extend punishing free haired women is an act of transgression, and Allah hate transgressor. “Fight in the cause of Allah those who fight you, but do not transgress limits; for Allah loveth not transgressors." (al-Baqara, 2/190)
My point
people like this man should be a leader or advisor to our Muslim majority countries.
Yeah that’ll work! Lol!
Because he talks like a Jew?
No, shabir Allay should not be. Lol
No, they shouldn't Lol. That's like shooting urself on the foot!
This guy will become a tyrant in an Islamic country. He did not say that women have a choice but considered Hijab to be a lesser issue.
Thank you Dr. Shabir for walking on the middle path and keeping it balance. May Allah keep you steadfast and guided 🤲
“I followed the waves of protest and violence in Iran following the death of Mahsa Amini in. The media broadcast that it is because of her badly worn veil. This information is partial, it takes up the rhetoric of opponents of the regime. Anyone who takes an interest in Iran knows that there are millions of "badly veiled" women there. The truth is that she was killed because she is Kurdish and the mullahs' regime is hounding this minority. But the broadcast media don't care. They prefer to support the PKK and say that the evil anti-Kurdish people in the Middle East are the Turks.
Moreover, it is clear that most of the demonstrations take place in predominantly Kurdish areas. All the demonstrators killed were in Kurdish towns. But hush it's the veil!" (Davut Paça)
Ameen
You happy for balancing?? There women died because she didn't wear a hijab . Just imagine if it was your mother or sister or your girlfriend who was killed . Don't be a nerd
@Abdullah I see you just joined 5 days ago. Btw the title says hijab not niqaab.
@Abdullah ohhh so if your sister don't like it . Can govt kill her ?
Where is the punishment for not wearing the hijab in the quran?
Nowhere.
It is in an authentic hadith
Can you give reference please
@@0815t there is a hadidth for everthing
Also here is another hadith regarding wearing a bun with hijab: [At-tabaran and Sahih Muslim] The Prophet Mohammed (Peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) Said: "There would be in the last of my ummah scantily dressed women, the hair on top of their heads like a camel's hump. Curse them for they are cursed."

Allah! There is no god ˹worthy of worship˺ except Him, the Ever-Living, All-Sustaining. Neither drowsiness nor sleep overtakes Him. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Who could possibly intercede with Him without His permission? He ˹fully˺ knows what is ahead of them and what is behind them, but no one can grasp any of His knowledge-except what He wills ˹to reveal˺. His Seat encompasses the heavens and the earth, and the preservation of both does not tire Him. For He is the Most High, the Greatest.

As a believing practising muslim since forever, I confirm you that this channel is THE MOST legit source of Islamic knowledge on all UA-cam. Keep watching. They're really good.
From what I know, there are 3 types of Laws in an Islamic State. 1 Laws for all citizens and non Muslims. 2 Laws for Muslims only that have prescribed punishments. 3. Laws that are between you and Allah, not the government. Wearing a Hijab has no prescribed punishment, neither does missing prayers.

This is Reza from Afghanistan. Most probably you know about the recent brutal attack in a Hazara(Shia) educational institute in DashtBarchi Kabul Afghanistan. After Taliban seized the power in Afghanistan our country has become the safe hangar of terrorism and extremism.
I request you to talk about this issue in the next show of yours.
Remember that you've made so many videos about a girl (Mahsa) who was killed in Iran but you are still mute about 53 Hazara school girls martyred on 30th September (Juma day).
Thanks
They dont cover everything. I also keep commenting about a particular topic to be discused. But I think they can only cover certain things and things which are mainstream. May Allah have mercy on victims of that attack
I think they only cover "hot topics," in other words clout chasing whatever is the current thing that boosts their videos in the algorithms. Shame.
The shia claim victimhood so well. What have the shias done to Muslims in Iraq Lebanon Afghanistan Syria Yemen. They were massacred to such an extent that even if your name was aisha hafsa omar abu Bakr othman they would kill you.
Fun fact. There is no point in talking about Afghanistan and the Taliban. Nothing anybody can do now. The West have learned their lesson. Islam is incompatible with democracy and equality for women. The Afghans brought it on themselves. So did the Iranians in 1979. More fool them. 😁
The cover things that are given them by funding parties. even the questions are made to impose the wanted answers.
There are too many misogynistic elements stalking this channel. May Allah bless you Dr Shabir. I wish there was a personal platform where I could thank you and tell you stuff without stiff people barging in with their preachy comments.
Well it's islam, what do u expect.. Hanbali will not accept all of Maliki, and Maliki will not accept all of Hanbali, there are 4 fiqhs and not One in union. That's the issue with islam, it's branching and deviated alot from the time of its inception during the days of Muhammad

They wish you would disbelieve as they disbelieved so you would be alike. So do not take from among them allies until they emigrate for the cause of Allah. But if they turn away, then seize them and kill them wherever you find them and take not from among them any ally or helper. Quran 4:89
Koran 33:59
Yusuf Ali O Prophet! Tell thy wives and daughters, *and the believing women* , that they should cast their outer garments over their persons (when abroad): that is most convenient, that they *should be known (as such) and not molested* . And Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
Should be known as "believing women" means to be recognized as female Muslims and not be confused to be with Non-Muslims females.
Now in this case here there is the Father one Muslim and daughter Muslim in one room, why is the headscarf now necessary?
Tafsir al-Jalalayn, trans. Feras Hamza about K.33/59 makes it very clear...
Ask yourself this
Would you want to be forced to wear something day in day out , wether you wanted to or not?
I know I wouldn’t.
No compulsion in religion.
When its about accepting it.... whoever accepted it....he must follow the rules.....
But yes ...you can't enforce someone to do things by force....you have to present it in a manner that everyone would happily follow kt
@@nayeem_khann sure modest clothing is the way. Enforcing women to wear hijab is like making them slaves to a particular government or people. We should tell them why hijab is there and that we men are no one to order women to wear hijab. We should teach that the one who created her and loves her the most told her to do hijab for her own protection and make our women slaves to Allah, not to us or any government. Also "islamic states" should do something about men who are now wild beasts full of lust (thanks to porn) . We dont hear anything about men controlling them selves
Nobody is being compelled to be a Muslim or pray, fast, etc. It's just a public dress code, all countries have their own interpretations of what is acceptable wear in public. And head covering rules have existed throughout time in almost every major society.
@@heregoes8839 I understand they hijabs existed throughout time in christian and muslim and jewish cultures. It's clear though the majority of Muslims use the quran or hadith to dictate through religion rules onto others. The problem is the majority doesn't use reason to pass these rules on. Murder is clearly heinous, theft is clearly bad, wearing a hijab is completely uncomparable to the previous two in sin wether you look at the veil verse as metaphorical or physical. A huge problem within the Muslim community is their overzealousness for hadith when theirs an authenticated hadith that monkeys stoned an adultress monkey to death and glorifies stoning and other atrocious acts in al bukhari which contradict the quran in many ways. Muslims get around this by saying well it doesn't contradict the quran because it's not in the quran, well by that logic we could put any number of topics in the hadith that aren't in the quran and lay claim "well its not in the quran so it doesn't contradict it" thus turning people off to Islam and also using a lack of reasoning and pure obedience to a book not sent down by allah but pure allegations made 4 or 5 people away from the Prophet. To kill a woman for not wearing a hijab is something you will 100 percent have to face allah for on the day of judgement, to say otherwise is blind ignorance. I feel sorry for the sunni/shia that have to play mind games on justifying pedophilia and stoning people to death because some guy 200ish years after muhamad laid claim that these words are Verbatim from aisha or Prophet muhammad. It's crazy because if we passed on the quran alone 100% islam would be the dominate religion. Instead the people in control of Islam tell you not to ask questions or use reason to justify atrocious acts even when the quran tells you to do such pure things for your wife and orphans and the needy that even the bible won't even detailed get into to. The quran is such a beautiful piece of text that gets laid to waste by crazy unreliable somehow authenticated hadiths that just turn everyone off to the quran and it's beautiful meaning. Oh how I must understand Allah's frustration with us and his impatience I hope he openes up a new perspective too all of you in your hearts to revert back to the original Islam before all the hadiths. The true Islam quran only. Stop letting imams tell you what's right, use what's inside your heart and throw the perversion out. Context and reason within side the quran is what makes it clear. Hadith makes it perverse and wicked and unclear, thus contradicting the quran in itsself.
@@hh-hj9fn I feel 1000% the same. It is a waste of good souls that we can turn to Islam. Is it not heinous of people who perform Dawah to draw people to Islam just by the good things in the Qur'an? If people knew about all the nonsense haram stuff in Hadith, I doubt they would so willingly join the religion. And then the same preachers tell us to not pick and chose... What the Prophet (PBUH) did, apart from religious worship practices such as prayer, fasting, zakat, performing Haj, was all about manners and mundane aspects of live. Such things naturally change with time and whe should stick to the rather figurative meaning instead of the literal one so that we can keep following the spirit of Islam but in a way that is appropriate for the time that we live in. Don't forget about the people some of whom took a command of the Prophet literally and the others figuratively and he himself told them that they were both correct. Peace
If the hijab was simply a private act of worship (like salat), why do we not have to wear it in private?
Great question! Why not wear it when in private while praying?
You DO have to wear it in salah
Hijab is obligation by god in salat and when around non mahram don’t listen this channel they misguide people with western interpretations
@@ozzieone16 he is correct. Hijab is NOT required in Islam. I have done a video on this (as has Shabbir Ally many times).
@@mymuslimthoughts6903 ya but we are not looking for “your Muslim thoughts”, we look to the Book of Allaah and the Sunnah of His messenger (SalAllaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) as well as the TRUSTED scholars of Islaam. If we truly want to let the Qur’aan speak then individuals like Shabbir Ally should remain silent.
I always enjoy listening to Dr. Shabir's discussions and points of views about Islam. Alhamdulillah, they're so interesting and so well thought out. I really appreciate Dr.Shabir taking the middle path approach, not too liberal (do whatever you want) and not too extreme (do whatever you're told, like it or not). Thank you, Dr. Shabir. May Allah bless you for your efforts.
Well, i live in malaysia. in 80s less that 5% muslim women wear hijab, now 2022, almost 90% muslim women wear it...it need education to do it...not law enforcement.
Thank you for this discussion. It is indeed very enlightening. For us in Malaysia, from my viewpoint, the hijab has actually effectively divided the peoples of Malaysia, because it becomes a "holier than thou" badge in a multi-cultural society where we are already different enough in terms of culture, language and skin colour, and so when the Wahabis stated to impact Malaysia in the 90s, and introduced the Hijab quickly proliferating it, firstly because of peer pressure and societal pressure and then only personal conviction, the gulf of separation widened even more, and then of course political parties took advantage of this separation and widened the gap further.
Interesting how you mentioned the Wahabi influence - them and the Muslim Brotherhood are to blame for the mass, wide spread narrow- minded narcissism that is plaguing the Muslim countries and diaspora communities.
This channel is sooo good...it always brings to light so many important topics and current affairs... It is so underrated... Love Dr Shabir and team...
@Abdullah You don’t have Islamic morals and ethics!
Fun fact. The word hijab originally meant a veil or curtain behind which Muhammad hid his wives from the view of his primitive and lecherous companions. Full covering was ordered for them at the behest of Omar. Nothing to do with any god. 😁
@Abdullah I'm shocked to hear him say what he just said totally shocked
@Abdullah he speaks the truth and knows that Islam is a lie but can't get out of it.. Even Yasir qadi knows it.
@@mohofpetra4956 a lie is to consider the circumcised Jew Jesus as a god
Thank you for speaking about this, I don't hear a lot of Muslim leaders talking about this
Our society lacks the ability to think critically without being swayed by emotional bias. These kinds of conversations are necessary for peace and understanding, and your efforts are greatly appreciated.
Your opinion is excellent. There is no compulsion in certain things
But enforcing hijab is allowed. Dont get me wrong, Iran is not a Muslim majority country but the ruler is supposed to enforce Islam.
@@holdshiftt2run308 islam is not enforced by enforcing hijab, its enforced by enforcing its teachings
@@bloxinaron3803 Hijab is one of it's teachings my guy. lol The ruler can enforce Islam. Enforcing the teachings is and enforcing hijab go hand in hand. Just like how in Brunei, they ban pork, alcohol, adultery and so on. They even close shops at the time of salah. The ruler is allowed.
Your amazing my Allah give you many rewards for your teaching and may you reach the people who are misguided and trying to force people
Muhammad (pbuh) said: "Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him" (Bukhari 9.84.57).
Only issue is he is the one misguiding with his western interpretations
@@ozzieone16 Some Zanadiqa (atheists) were brought to `Ali and he burnt them. The news of this event, reached Ibn `Abbas who said, "If I had been in his place, I would not have burnt them, as Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) forbade it, saying, 'Do not punish anybody with Allah's punishment (fire).' I would have killed them according to the statement of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), 'Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him.'" (Bukhari 9.84.57).
In addition to my other comment, I'd add I enjoyed this talk. And found them both earnest and informative.
To my understanding a simple logic is if you cannot force religion on anyone, it is Allah's Hidaayah(God's Guidance to whoever He wants) then why force certain aspects of religion such as in this case which is Hijab. Please correct me if I am wrong. JazakAllah Khairan!
I completely agree and would also like a response to this.
The Iranians wanted an Islamic state in 1979. More fool them. Now they reap the consequences. 😁
good question. leta get some answers.
Problem is we muslims are confused between where we have choice and where to use force itself.
In my understanding if a muslim leader or khalifa as we call him in islam is legitimately brought into power by proper bayt of the muslims then he has every right to ENFORCE islam in society becoz he himself was chosen by muslims, otherwise if the leader comes by force or corruption then he has no right to enforce islam becoz his own government would be illegitimate.
Once a leader legitimately comes into power then he has every right to enforce islam and maintain the writ of the government and sharia, he cannot then sit idle and let people do whatever they want, becoz now he is answerable for those people infront of Allah. An example of this was in the reign of Hazrat Abu bakr who did jihad with muslims who denounced to pay zakat at that time and he was completely justified becoz he was legitimate leader.
Muslim population do have a choice in first electing a leader, if they dont want sharia then fair enough dont elect a pious leader and Allah will deal with those muslims in the hereafter, but if u decide to elect a good upstanding leader then u have to follow his rules until his reign, you cannot rebel against him.
This is the difference between choice and force in this matter
@@cuttingstitching-dressmaki3016 i don't agree because Allah clearly says there is no compulsion in religion
I appreciate you even mentioning what's going on with Iran and Mahsa Amini. You might be the 1st and only Muslim on youtube to speak on this.
Everyone else is shrugging saying "they're shia, they don't represent islam"
Everyone else stayed quiet but you. That takes guts. They will exile you from the community or attempt to atleast,but just remember, you're in a religion of peace.
Absolutely state can not and should not interfere in private matters of its citizens and state does not have any authority to enforce things like Hijab , fasting , salat or dress code .
Alhamdulillah . I am impressed We should have more & more preacher like him
As a Catholic(Christian) growing up my grandmother was veiling. After her it was by choice. Even during her time it wasnt by choice. It was mostly left on the person committing the personal sin. If a women dnt want to cover then its upon her!
I love this man. He doesnt make Islam hard like some people do. Bless you!👍🏼
What do you define as hard?
Hmmm alot...The Muslim Community. Islam is not hard but some people in the muslim community make it hard.🤯
@@raiyan.j6693 If Islam is not hard, why do non-Arabs need to pray in Arabic language?
@@gospeltruth6368 if you live in an islamic country or if it's possible for you to see s lot of Muslims outside than you must pray in arabic because people who lives there are used to it . But for example if you live in london and you just reverted to islam you pretty much can pray in english or other languages. For instance I live in istanbul and it's possible for me to see a muslim men with beard and a counter on his hand going to a mosque. It's so common. But if I were living in a western country it wouldn't be so fair to learn all these arabic things because the languages are so different. Arabic and english have barely same words meanwhile turkish is full of arabic words
@@littlemiss9044 Does Islamic sources say it is permissible to pray in English?
MasyaAllah may Allah guide us all. Alhamdulillah thank you Dr. Shabir for keep being truthful and trustworthy on delivering messages in the Qur'an. I hate people who force hijab though me myself already wear hijab alhamdulillah.
Apart from criminal violations, some states in Malaysia have Islamic Department of the Government imposed few Islamic legislation only to Muslims ,for example, those who eat in public during Ramadhan, men and women with inappropriate dresses or behavior in public, men loitering in public during Friday Prayer. The fines or penalties are not too harsh as they are only tools to educate the community. Muslim leaders anyway are responsible to maintain the Syariah as much as possible in the Muslim community. Explaination by Dr Shabir Ally was spot on.
Alhamdulillah Malaysia is a great country for Muslims. Regardless of some political and economic issue, i do feel blessed to call it home
And that's my thing about is ever going to apply Islamic law applied all of it don't apply some Islamic laws like a chain you can't put up a few like a decoration on a tree
I literally just said the same thing you even get fined or penalties
But if they have to force people does it count ?? Are forced prayers accepted by Allah??
I just found this channel today.Thank you very much.May Allah bless you I have learnt alot.L9ve from Kenya
Allah said "But continue to remind. For certainly reminders benefit the believers." (51:55)
He did not say "But continue to enforce. For certainly enforcements benefit the believers"
How about the verse "there is no compulsion in religion " cant that be used as a point? Since even the state cannot force us to follow religion
go look at the context of this verse ... you will get your answer
The Vatican has dress codes throughout the city because it is a religious state. The guards have the right to refuse you access into the city and its attractions if you do not follow the dress code and are dressed immodestly.
That's about entering religion
@@cogthusiast1150 tell me then can you force people to pray or what
@@Sami-gi1ld I don't know, but I do know that Abu Bakr RA went to war when some tribes refused to pay Zakat.
From Vatican City's website:
"The Vatican is a self-governing city-state that serves as the seat of the Roman Catholic Church. The Vatican has dress regulations throughout the city because it is a religious state. They advocate modest clothing and skin covering as a religious institution, similar to how other religions have tenets dictating appropriate attire. The guards have the right to refuse you access into the city and its attractions if you do not follow the dress code and are dressed immodestly."
Which is great and applies to both men and women. Same with a mosque in general and also in Istanbul people are expected to enter The Blue Mosque wearing modest clothing and there are appropriate clothing provided at the entrance. However this is completely different from a Police State that is exploiting Islam to instil fear in women particularly and abuse of power. Modesty should be encouraged in a majority Muslim country but should not be taken to extremes as explained in the video.
@@SA41959 1. If Iran is a "police state" for enforcing their dress code then so is Vatican City.
2. I have no idea what you're talking about when you claim they are "exploiting Islam," but this is only your opinion it is not a fact. I think maybe you are mistaking Iran with the Taliban in Afghanistan or the Saudis. How is it "instilling fear in women" when Iranian women have the rights to vote, work, education, run for office, etc.? One of their vice presidents recently was a woman. 70% of university graduates in the fields of science, tech, engineering and math are women. If Iran wanted to "instill fear in women" none of this would be the case.
3. Iran's modest dress code applies to both men and women. It is not "to instill fear in women particularly." If a man wore shorts or tank tops out in public the authorities would be on his case too.
4. What "abuse of power" are you referring to exactly? If you claim the police killed Ms. Amini the evidence for this is not very convincing to say the least. Hypothetically, even if there was police brutality/physical abuse involved, this does not mean it was the policy of the govt of Iran. The appropriate response would be to hold that officer accountable for abusing his or her power.

@@raouffff1120 In Islam it does not matter if most people oppose.Its Allahs law must be obeyed.
Besides hijab in terms of logic is good for society as it protects women and girls from evil men and protect men boys from the allurement of women.

Hijab isn’t doing nothing for protection!
When she said about the praying that's its not against the law basically if you do not pray, reminds me of something I heard when I was in York back in the old days in uk few hundred years ago or longer can't remember that it was law that you had to go to church and pay a fee (tax) and if you did go there would be a fine... Can't remember it all but it did happen in uk but thankfully that's changed now
Prayer is meant to be personal. A man or a woman not praying has no detrimental effect on a society. Me not praying isn’t going to affect a women in any way. It’s only going to increase my sins but that’s not the case with not enforcing Hijab or not lowering one’s gaze. It’s like me saying that I can stare at women in an Islamic society and the government has no right to enforce any penalty on me which is ridiculous. The verse 24:30 commands me to lower my gaze first and then 24:31 tells women to lower their gaze and to wear modest clothing. Now if an Islamic society stops enforcing these laws and stops taking action against a woman who doesn’t cover properly and a man who lusts after women then it would lead to disorder and chaos in the society. Because both of these acts are public sins, they’re not private sins like not praying etc. So it’s like comparing apples and oranges.
I disagree, every country is different and can enforce islamic law no problem. Its Allah command to enforce his laws
Quran 22:41. “˹They are˺ those who, if established in the land by Us, would perform prayer, pay alms-tax, order what is good, and forbid what is evil. And with Allah rests the outcome of all affairs”.
U can’t force someone into coercing unless it’s a serious crime like murder or stealing. Even headscarf in Quran wasn’t said to be mandatory in every aspect, main emphasis was given on body cover
I read that in one country in south east Asia 3 Muslims we brought to task for not attending the Friday prayer...
Why is so much more importance attached to wearing the hijab now than in the 1960s and 1970s? Were women then brazen?
Thank you for paying attention to what is happening in Iran🙏
AFAIK the Holy Quran encourages us only to guard our modesty, both Female AND Male. May Allah (SWT) guide me to avert my eyes and oversee my nature that my sisters in Islam are respected as they are entitled.
Fun fact. The reason that Muslim women are forced to cover up? Because creepy guys like Omar were watching Muhammad's wives going out to do their business and shouting things like 'I see you Sauda!' Omar boasted later of having been responsible for the verse of covering in the Quran. Nothing to do with any god. 😁
@Curio
Only women?
@Curio No...it doesn't. But...I can certainly be wrong so if you know the citation that mandates specifically that women should "cover up" noone should be better pleased than I. In the meantime Surah 33, Ayat 57 asks "that they should cast their outer garments over their persons (when out of doors). There is no mention of hijab, only that they act modestly. There is no mention of mandate or punishment. None.
@@BruceWSims The verse of covering is clear. Muslim women are to cover themselves completely when they go outside. Omar in the hadith makes it quite clear too. Nothing to do with modesty. It was to distinguish the free believing women from slaves and non-believers who could be molested at will. 😁
@Curio True. The Quran commands Muslim women to cover up. But the verse was instigated by Omar. He even boasted later that Allah had agreed with him. 😁
I would like to thank everyone participating in producing such educational clips, however, I do wish the hostess would allow Dr Shabir to complete his responses without occasional interruptions.
The question on prayers and fasting is fard in Islam which hardly to forecast or see it societal influence unlike dressings. But dressings is both religious and traditionally guided, which has a direct societal influence, depending on what society you want to create you upholds some of these guidelines or ignore it
Sometimes... he is going around the bush instead going right to the point... may he is trying to please people. Hijab has nothing to do with this... it is just policy propaganda.

@@hamzakhairi4765 I love that the Prophet (pbuh) made the long beard an obligation on men (while Allah (swt) biologically enforced it) and burning of the homes of men who don’t pray 5 times a day at the mosque. Far too many big mouthed beard shy men taking the moral high ground and not practicing what they preach.
Educational and informative video - thanks for uploading; always worth viewing.
As a revert who lives in America (USA born, multigenerational American citizen), I wish to one day live where they have more of the Islamic schedule, I.e; Adhan playing publicly, ease to go pray as a normal social cue, and off on Fridays to attend Jummah. Though it’s not obligatory for women to attend, as a revert, the mosque is where I learn a lot and become close to the community. My current m-f job holds me back from such attendance.
If people are not punished for not saying their 5 daily prayers or fasting during the Ramadan or giving zakaat, or such other clear commandments in the quran then I see no reason why someone should be punished for not covering their hair, when there is no clear ruling on it in the quran or even in the hadith.
That is if it is stopping there.
However uncovering of the hair often accompanies much more damaging feminist policies, demanding abortion and sexual liberation which leads to gender dysphoria as we are seeing here in the west.
There is a difference between a man and a woman and this needs to be held as a standard for society.
There must be limits and not everyone is going to be happy about limits. The answer is too bad, the same as children sometimes dislike rules, it is often for their own wellbeing.

U really need to look into punishments of Islam cause yes if u are not fulfilling obligatory task then u can be killed at war if u are assuming a rebel party whose disobeying and start fighting.Remember the time when Companions killed those who did not pay zakah........
hijab is a public societal obligation. All those other things have exceptions and are not about the public sphere of behavior. Praying in public congregation is not mandatory. Fasting cannot be publicly enforced when there are many valid exceptions a person can have in islam. Hijab is literally just about how one appears in public, there is no such thing as hijab when alone in your house.
@@lemortedbrian6070 exactly
Awesome 🎉. Beautifully explained by Dr Shabir . We need more scholars like him to help Muslims understand the Deen Islam which unfortunately has been complicated to an extent that it demotivates people . I would suggest people here to watch Mr Ghamdhi who happens to be in my understanding one of greatest Mujadid’s of modern times . Thanks
Very valid opinion. Very appreciated
Very well explained. Plus there’s 2:256 in the Quran.
Always good questions. Always hood answers
The problem with Islamic law in general is that it contradicts the essence of being a Muslim. Any law which forced any aspect of the religion is going against what the religion is, Islam is about the individuals submission to Allah (SWT) through free will not compulsion. This is a theme which is repeated through out the Quran.
If Allah (SWT) wanted us to be this way he would not have given us free will and agency.
In america the law basically arrests you for being too naked in public. In islam being covered doesn't just mean cover your genitals for men the area is between belly button and knees (you won't see lots of men following this tbh I do but I know lots don't) a woman's region is basically her entire body except her hands and feet and some difference of opinion on face but hair is part of it.
@@hamzakhairi4765 Allah created the human (both males AND FEMALES) requiring vitamin D. Vitamin D is crucial to our health, so much so that it is regarded as a hormone. Skin needs to be exposed to the suns ultraviolet light, it is then converted it into vitamin D3. This is the way Allah has designed the human being and what it requires. This evidently exposes the manmade elements of the female dress code, showing only the hands, feet and face. The body could never absorb enough sunlight being covered to that extent.
The problem with your point of view about Islam is that it drips with liberalism.
its discriminative..no compulsion but discriminative and sometime unrighteous
@@hamzakhairi4765 exactly that's literally misogyny
you can be modest without hijab
Hijab is obligation by god

In the Quran & Hadith it says Hijab is obligation by god all scholars agreed this not an issue of dispute

Assalaamualaaikum.. unfortunately they avoided mentioning what is told in the Qur'an about covering.. wondering why ! 🙃
And also openly say they disregard a Hadith because it’s not al-Bukhari although that it doesn’t go against al-Bukhari
This channel misguides people with their western interpretations from saying celebrating Christmas is okay to saying the Quran is outdated
This was very informative...jazakALLAH dr shabir and ltqs team
Thanks Alot Sir! May Allah Grant you high ranks in Jannah.
Ibn al-Qayyim said: "The holder of authority must prevent women from going out adorned and beautified, and prevent them from wearing clothes in which they are dressed, naked."
That means that a certain level of modesty SHOULD be mandated and enforced if necessary. Tabarruj is a serious matter and its harm is great and is not limited to the one who commits it, but extends to others, and today's world is the best example of that.
The death of this woman has in actuality nothing to do with the matter of Hijab. if she was arrested for drugs for example, would her death be okay ? no. that means her death is a misconduct by the police or whatever the reason is.
Thank you, spot on.
And even if we talk about her death, there is no evidence she was tortured or killed, people are just taking the western narrative.
Who Is ibn Al qayyim?
Certain level of modesty is subjective
But you need to support it with Quran and hadith otherwise its an opinion and Ibn al-qayyim was no doubt a great scholar but scholars also differ on opinions.
No it does not mean that. All it means is Ibn al Qayyim thought it should be enforced and the opinion of one man is not binding upon the group.
- I'm Christian, your Muslim , my Wife is Buddhist it's all good , do your thing and don't force anyone else to believe what you do. If you do you probably got an issue you need to work on.

Thank you brother! Alhamdulillah very informative

@@cyrusthegreat3081A channel made by non muslims.
Very well spoken sir!
We need to dig deeper on this current matter - bcos there are claims that her arrest is not related to discarding the Hijab - I will share one clip shared in media
Lol so a country can't enforce its dress code. I guess someone should let western countries know that they can walk baked around. But honestly what dr Shabir is talking about makes no sense with all due respect. And prayer is different as it's public observation doesn't play the same role as modesty as defined by the source of values, which in muslim country happens to be islam
Nice point by Safiyya comparing it with prayer which is not a law even though obligatory....Trust Allah to deal with those disobeying him .... People need to fear Allah not the law ...
With prayer, it's not a public thing.
The hijab is.. Just like alcohol which is banned in islamic coubtries, people will see you disobeying islamic laws.
Beside Iran's hijab law isn't even that strict.
Even prayers should be enforced on Muslims. Don’t listen to this channel
@@jacobali4088 people will see right.... So what ... People who are God fearing will anyways wear it
@@thesarasohrabi Iran based on their belief and religion have decided on what is proper man and female clothing.
Every nation has a dress code, some less strict than others.
I can use your point and argue as to why do we even need islamic government... Why ban alcohol.. Why ban prostitution... Good Muslims would follow Islam lol.
See how illogical your argument is.
All these protests are mainly because of poverty and the influence of west on the young generation.
Personal prayers do not have any effect on society but hijab does. I didn't see it as the right comparison.
Hijab is a choice. If a woman fails to wear a hijab around the heart...when the heart is filled with evil. Then its no use to wear a hijab. Begin with your heart first ✌️
If u cover your heart then eventually you will cover your head too
In the recent Iran's case, I would like to recommend for Dr Safiyyah take a trip to Iran and inquire/inspect on how Iran deal with those who were arrested by the police.
Thank you for the lovely, interesting contribution
Make men wear them,problem solved!!
men have to observe hijab too
@@ahmedharajli189so why don’t they fully cover their hair
@@shakila5674 what do you think hijab is
Love that this channel is not afraid to address all and every issue . Excellent response as always.
The Iranian government force hijab not because of Islam, but also because of politics decision. There are a lots of problems in the country, but government try to show that it save Islam by Hijab!!!
Can you please do a show about “Should hijab be banned?” - I would like to hear what doctor says on that topic!
YES THATS A GOOD TOPIC yes we want to see what the great Dr says...playing around w Islam as he likes w his relative Dr Safiyah Sli who put haram make up and plucked eyebrows harsm in Islam..
I love this program! Alhamdulillah!
Even in an islamic state you cant expect everyone to be a muslim and live by this standard. Allah created good and evil, this is His will. As long as I know dunya is made of this. The ruler has to let some people transgress in somethings. In controlled and smart fashion. We talk good, but can everyone be convinced? Allahu alam
Good explanation, Dr. Thank you!
Considering women weren’t wearing hijabs in many mzm countries in the 70s, the answer is a clear no!
Laws against indecency !?
Not one word about the young woman who was murdered.
Keep it up, Shabir Ali, from the comfort of the 'greener side' of where you have sought to live, away from your own/native place/home.
The West has killed millions of Muslims in the West. But this discussion is about the law, not police brutality
I get confused more and more every time i watch these videos.
I guess we keep loosing people everyday till we can understand "the proper living way". I just wish people would stop hurting each other especially about such topics that even Dr Shapiro Ali is having difficulty explaining. I hope she finds peace.
the proper way is already prescribed but some countries tend to go on the extreme path. religion should be practised in a moderate way not in excess as it is not allowed in islam. enforcing hijab is never the way to go about it nor is enforcing religious acts of worship. these women leave the hijab because it was forced upon them. anything forced upon you by man doesnt sit well with humans. hopefully she is in peace, she was killed without right and fault, shell have peace in the next life inshaallah
This is a simple explanation. If you can't understand it, message him and I'm sure he will find an easier way to explain it to you
Your confusion can be due to:
1. Not interested in the subject
2. Not knowledgeable of anything discussed here
3. Predetermined response whatever the message in the video
4. Didn't watch the full video but decided to comment
5. Didn't expect the speaker to give such a clear explanation
6. All of the above and more....
Thank you for clearly explaining me the problem.
I appreciate your opinion about my opinion and i am happy that you chose to educate me. I look forward for more videos from the honorable Doctor and his opinion although i would prefer some concrete answers rather than some personal opinion.
It is simple, not all obligatory in islam needed a law especially for things that don't effect others directly.
Example: Islam leaders should enforce cutting the hands for stealing before hijab because steal directly impact others.
All islam leaders should be smart about it, if your laws cause more harm than good, then maybe you should not have the law in the first place.
These purist will only chase women away from islam because of their own foolishness.

Great answer!
This issue really makes me dizzy. Is the hijab really wajib or not? And then should a father enforce his daughters and wife to wear hijab or not? Because I heard that a husband is considered weak and will not go to heaven if the women and family sinning in public.
Salam,
In Islam Hijab is wajib, as a father you must try to gradually educate your daughters and wife to wear the Hijab. Forcing Hijab only brings Hijab it in a negative aspect and they will be removing it when you are not around. As a father and a husband your role is to consistently, and kindly remind them of wearing Hijab as you want them and yourself in Jannah , of course it is Allah who puts in their heart the desire for modesty. All that is required from you is attempting your best to your abilities to steer them to modesty (in a sincere and kind manner with reasoning) and Allah will not punish those who strive in his path. May Allah help you brother and Allah knows best of what is in our hearts. and wa salam alaikum!
Do they already dress modestly in a non revealing way? I mean no tight clothing like jeans or the like? A longer dress and a decent top clothing are modest. If they already do this, there's no reason to force them to wear hijab if they really don't want it. What matters is living by the spirit of modesty to the best of one's ability, not following a precise dress code. Worsening your family relationship is unreasonable, don't pay too much attention to what is haram other than major crimes that are also punishable in this world. Try to be as good of a human being as possible, worhsip Allah and seek forgiveness for your shortcomings. Peace.
The Quran also states "let there be no compulsion in religion" by forcing the hijab and penalising it these states have created compulsion in their version of faith.
Dr. Can you talk about hairstyles for both men and women?..are women and men allowed to add on their hair with some other artificial hair?
No. Wearing a wig in Islam is haram. Including extensions.
Assalamualaikum Dr Shabbir ally
JazaAllah Dr Ally for such a beautiful easy to understand narrative about hijab. Our youth more scholars like you who do not convulate basic Islamic teachings for a common man.
Wait i think- i could be mistaken- Quran states Hijaab is better for you? Like older women are told it is optional, but it is better for them. In the Bible as well- Corintias 11 say women should cover their hair or cut the hair short. That means- the point here is to remain modest, and not attract unnecessary attention from the opposite sex
It is unfortunate that the Sharia is used to gain or maintain power by some politicians in Muslim countries. In Brunei, although the Sharia is implemented, it only applies to the normal citizens and not to the Sultan's family. This is why I am sceptical when someone said "Implement the Sharia or you a kafir."
It is sad we do not have a Caliph that can set the way for the ummah to have one consistent Sharia. Thats why I believe the main challenges of implementing the Sharia is the fact, we no longer have a caliphate. The Abbasid, Umayyad, Mughal and Ottoman Empire were some of the flourishing empires during their time. They are not perfect, but they set the record straight for what life is like with the Shari'a law practiced.

I am an irreligious who was born Muslim. It did not changed after the video actually, but I found this man to be very smart/objective/open-minded and well informed practitioner and scholar of his religion/domain. I respect such people regardless of his/her beliefs. I believe every member of a religion or an ideology need such people to be better guided in their ways.
Very well explained.
How did the women dress at the time of the prophet?
Sugar coating. Speak the truth or be silent.
Wearing the veil is personal thing it’s also open for interpretation there is nothing in the Quran says you should dress specific way nor it should be forced it’s not even a sin.
FACTS
It's not open to interpretation unless you read the tafsir of the sahaba or learned scholars. Laymen can't just read an English translation and make up rules
Whadya mean? The same verse that says cover the head says cover the chest. If that is a personal thing and not to be enforced then should we allow topless women to run around the street also? Our deen is final. No one can interpret according to whims and desires. This isnt hinduism or christianity.
It is obligatory plain and simple. There is no personal choice. Muslim women have to wear hijab because it was commanded!
@@AbdulRahman-it1fv Nowhere in Quran Allah said cover your head with a veil. I don’t care what scholars say…I am Muslim and I understand the Arabic language. The khimar is not a hijab in the verse of Allah. A khimar is a scarf. So when Allah says yudnininab bikhoumourihina ala jouyoubihinna it means cover your chest with a scarf for decency…where the bloody hell Allah swt says wear the hijab? - So many invention in Islam like the punishment of the grave and do many noncence.
Is it just me or have very few online imams talked about tbis topic
Yasir Qadhi talked about this too I saw
There are teachers and principle here in Indonesia get fired and potentially will be put in prison for forcing student wearing a hijab..
This man is a gem
@Abdullah wallahi. He has a channel called let the quran speak but only his opinions are speaking here.
Women should wear hijab but they can Breastfeed adult men ten times. Lol 🤣
@Abdullah How is he misguiding people when he is referring to Quran and Hadith to back what he’s saying? Misguiding people is what those crazy new age “Muslims” who are intoxicated by k*fir red pill movements are doing.
@Abdullah people are ignorant
This man s a clown all about his opinion
@Abdullah your comment is enough to lead you to the jahannam…
I have been quite impressed with Dr Safiyyah Ally's bits of comments she slides in in between. I really think she deserves a show of her own. I would like to hear more of her thoughts.
Disagree.Dr Safiyah Allay is not giving right fatwas on Islam even as commentator.She cannot wear make up or have her eyebrows plucked its haram as its agst the ethics of hijab and hadith Sahih prohibits tattoo plucked eyebrows and hair being held upwards style...
It’s not even ordained in the Quran. Quran says cover the bosom. Not hair or head
All this man had to say No, it should not be compulsory. He’s just waffling on and on!
