NOT JUST CHANGING YOUR SPOUSE TO KHIMARITE OR NIQOBITE

  In the first place, I do not want to dwell on this issue with the fear of misconception. Well, brilliant Scholars have indeed discussed Hijab and things that surrounded it. However, some points of view are so engraved in me and it is so much to have been ignored, they are too factual as far as I am concerned. So, I choose to write this due to the ranting things around us. Hence, I want to address sisters and brothers too. "changing your spouse to a khimarite or niqobite"

 Brothers, making your spouse to use khimar or Niqob is indeed superb and it is a well done task. However, as a matter of implication, it is not superb enough if you have make her to adopt it yet failed some steps before it. Several questions should be burning deep down in your stomach, like; have I make her to wear it against her will? Perhaps she might agreed to use it just to safe the relationship. Did I really take the right step before introducing her to this? Perhaps she might be ignorant of ethics surrounding it.

 Sisters as well should be versed with these questions , have I done this with my own consent or will?  Have I done it to please Allah or to please this man that I love? You just need to be sure, it is for Allah

 Islam and its concepts are all encompassing, as a result of which it is liken to a school with classes, you promote from one class to the other or repeat (yazeed wa yanqus). However,  brothers should know that ladies do get overwhelmed with love easily and could go extremely to save it.  In lieu to this, clear off the love and let them understand khimar is done for Allah alone. Tomorrow your love might fade! What next?

  Several lamentation is what we listened to times without number about some sisters doing and uttering some slang not expected of them and indeed this is where many brothers failed in their quest to build girls to modesty. Yes!  she's used to the slang before you met,  you wanted to make her better,  give her some basic religious ethics before going to the peak.  Mostly today we start from the peak,  imagine a khimarite uttering nonsense or even acting it.  She might be ignorant of the fact that khimar or niqob is not just an outlook thing, as in just a cloth , it must accompanied with some ethics that would mean to the people that indeed you understand the khimar itself. Therefore, brothers, indeed it is superb you want to make your spouse use it but it might not be the best and first option to start with in some circumstances.  Khimar should mean a modest outlook and indeed modesty is not only in appearance but in actions and some other things too.

  Ukhtee,  you are amazing in this khimar but did you ask yourself if you are ready for this? We are not asking you to be perfect but at least be modest enough indoor,  outdoor, inwardly and outwardly. This Islamic covering is a reflection of Islam, glad tiding, moralities etc, we do not expect the opposite.

We are tired of seeing  and hearing that _sister bla bla bla blah_ ends up removing hijab.  Subhanallah!!

Lilahil kamal!! May Allah steadfast us and make us firm in Deen.
