Secrets No More

Secrets No More

It has been a long time since......

The word perfume is derived from a Latin word "Per Fumum" meaning "through smoke." The art of perfumery was known to the ancient Chinese, Hindus, Egyptians, Arabs, Greeks, and Romans.

The burning of incense in religious rites of ancient China , Palestine , and Egypt led gradually to the personal use of perfume known as attars, widespread in ancient Greece and Rome . During the Middle Ages, crusaders brought the knowledge of perfumery to Europe from the East. After 1500, Paris was the major center of perfume-making followed by Egypt and other middle eastern countries.

We have teamed up with a renowned French perfumer and are excited about being able to offer popular and premium fine quality fragrance at affordable prices.

Now smelling great does not have to cost you more!!

What's the fuss between fragrance oil and ordinary perfumes?

When you purchase alcohol-free fragrance oil, what you are getting is pure perfume oil that is far more sophisticated then over-the-counter perfumes. The pure perfume oil emits a fine scent that is delicate yet strong but never offensive or overpowering.

Known for its well-balanced characteristics and long-lasting smell, perfume oil is pure and unadulterated by industrial fillers such as alcohol, white oil and water. These fillers, commonly found in the over-the-counter perfumes are used to make up the volume for larger packaging.

Fragrance Variety, Perfume Oil Content, Commercial Fillers (Water, Alcohol, DPG)

Various Types of Perfume Concentration Level

Perfume Oil / Fine Fragrance	100%	0%
Perfume or Parfum	15% - 30%	85% - 70%
Eau de Parfum	8% - 30%	92% - 70%
Eau De Toilette	4% - 8%	96% - 92%
Eau de Cologne	2% - 5%	98% - 95%
Splash Cologne	1% - 3%	99% - 97%

Why do they add alcohol in your perfumes?

Alcohol has a low evaporating point so it dries quicker than water. Hence mixing perfume oil with alcohol causes the oil to evaporate faster than they would by themselves. This gives the impression that the perfume is considerably stronger than it actually is. That is why, when you first put on a commercial fragrance, the aroma may sometimes seem overwhelming to those around you. This also explains why the scent fades dramatically within one or two hours as the perfume oil evaporates along with the alcohol.

The second reason for all those fillers is just clever marketing -- a bigger and fancier bottle containing fragrance plus fillers seems like a much better value than a smaller simple packaging of pure perfume oil.

What's the problem with alcohol anyway?

Alcohol tends to kill off or mask some of the subtle notes in many fragrances.

Ethyl alcohol is the most popular alcohol found in ordinary perfumes. It is extremely caustic. Many people who think they are allergic to the perfumes are actually allergic to the alcohol added in the perfume.

Alcohol is a drying agent - it makes things evaporate including the fragrance and your natural body oils.

Alcohol also is a forbidden substance to be associated with the Muslim users.

How long do One Drop Perfumes last?

A well-established fact is that oil based perfumes do not evaporate quickly and will settle on the skin for much longer, causing the scent to linger for a longer period of time.

The oil-based One Drop Perfumes last up to 12 to 24 hours - depending on your body chemistry. If you apply the fragrance on your clothing, the scent will last throughout the day as it permeates into the fabric of your clothing.

Hence it is no gimmick when claim you will smell great throughout the day with only one drop of our fragrance oil.

Remarkable Facts Revealed

Perfume Fact #1

50% - 90% of the cost of commercial perfume is marketing, not materials. Perfume is one of the most dramatic examples of the price not reflecting the cost of materials. Most people think that designer perfumes have all kinds of expensive and precious ingredients, and that is what makes it so expensive.

While this was true at one point, the real reason why most modern perfumes have such a high price tag is because of advertising, including:

Glossy magazine ads in Cosmo, GQ, and other popular magazines
Primetime TV commercials featuring hired celebrities
Custom-designed boxes, fancy bottles, and glitzy packaging to make the perfume "look expensive" and attract the eye of shoppers.
And don't forget the reseller's mark-up, which is usually twice the wholesale rate.

This answers the question, why One Drop Perfumes can be sold at a fraction of the designer perfume price.

Perfume Fact #2

Thanks to amazing advances in recent technologies , it is now possible to chemically analyze and recreate most fragrances, including designer perfumes. This is completely legal. It is impossible to copyright or patent a smell. (After all, can you imagine a monopoly on things that smell like rose? That would be ridiculous!)

The courts of law have held that - fragrance is something that belongs to the nature and not to any individual. As a result of this, a fragrance cannot be patented or copyrighted. On the other hand a brand name can be copyrighted and registered and others may not profit from its use. For this reason we want to be very clear that we do not represent any particular perfume house or their products. Our fragrance oils were only inspired by these remarkable designers.

Perfume Fact #3

Designer-inspired fragrance oil used to be available only to a niche and selected few. Today, its popularity is growing steadily. Discerning customers are now more aware and able to appreciate this sophistication of fine fragrance. Moreover, having learned that ingredients in fragrance oil and most generic perfumes are quite the same hence there is no reason for one to spend on astronomically-priced generic perfumes.

How to Creatively Wear Brooches

2008-11-15T16:57:00.000-08:00

Brooches are beautiful accessories, but can make an outfit seemed dated if they are worn in the traditional way. Here are a few ways to make use of a brooch:

* On a Beret - Just not the woolen kind! Instead of choosing the tried-and-true beret styles, aim for ones in crochet and with decorative elements such as sequins. Adding a vintage cameo or special brooch will create a signature piece that looks great at night-- and frames your face.

* Clipped Onto a Necklace - Simply pin your brooches and accessories straight onto the chain as decorative accents-- and don't be afraid of mixing metals. This is a great way to highlight decolletage or to draw the eye upwards (and way from your waistline).

* Onto Purse Handles - Do you have a purse with chain straps that was a steal? Add one simple brooch to add interest to the strap and coordinate with your outfit. Steer clear of political buttons (best put straight onto your lapel for maximum impact), and instead choose something sturdy and new. Replaceable is best when your accessory will be exposed to the elements.

* On Your Ballerina Flats -Do you have a pair of casual flats with ribbon accents? Find some vintage lapel pins at any thrift store or flea market for an impressive, spangled look. Look for tiny floral enameled pins or miniature costume jewels. Don't forget to check Etsy as well.

* On Your Coin Purse - Do you have a small, fabric Vera Bradley-type coin purse? That's the perfect soft medium to pins any type of brooch onto it for maximum style!

* Affixed to Your Key Chain -Grab a simple grosgrain ribbon keychain or make one yourself with a small length of patterned or plain ribbon knotted around a ring keychain. Add pins and brooches to make it unique, and be sure to choose ones that are smooth on the top to avoid snagging within your purse.

* Add Some Pizzaz to Your Purse - Did you know that a pin can instantly take an everyday purse and transform it into a dazzling accessory? For instance, a simple black purse is classic. It’s easy to accessorize and a lot of women prefer the sleek styling of a solid color design. But, what if you wake up one morning and your simple black purse looks just that - simple? Perhaps you want to dress it up or add a little sparkle to your day, which you can do by adding a pin to the handbag itself or by placing it where the strap meets the purse.

* What’s Up With Your Hat - The right pin can take a casual hat from everyday wear and turn it into a trendy statement in fashion. Whether you’re spending some time at the beach and want to add a fun pin that features a dolphin, seashell, palm tree or other symbol that’s reminiscent of a day at the shore or you want to dress up a hat for an afternoon of shopping with your girlfriends, the choice is yours. Either way you look at it, adding some style to your hat is a smart way to use your head.

* Shoulder Style - As mentioned earlier, pins and brooches are traditionally worn on a lapel. However, these days women are stepping it up on the style meter and moving their pins to the shoulder area of their jackets, blazers and even sweaters. A solid color turtleneck goes from warm to ‘wow’ with the addition of a simple pin. You can choose a sterling silver and cubic zirconia design for a style that looks as though you’ve adorned your shoulder in diamonds, or you can choose a gemstone or enamel pin to add some color to your ensemble.

Pashmina Care

2008-10-06T10:46:00.000-07:00

What is Pashmina?

The Pashmina Shawl has captured the heart of the west like no other fabric has. Western flirtation with the pashmina shawl can be traced back in history when Napoleon Bonaparte was presented with one. So fascinated was he with the shawl from India that he is said to have presented it to his beloved Josephine.

Since then Pashmina has always mesmerized the west, and in recent times it has topped the chart as a most desired piece of apparel. The word pashmina is derived from the Persian word pashm, which means wool. Pashmina is sheered from the underbelly and neck area of the special mountain goat Capra hircus found at over 14,000 feet. It is popularly known as the pashmina goat.

Pashmina is as delicate and soft as it is warm. A pashmina pure shawl is so soft that it is weaved mixing silk yarn to give it some stability. Pashmina shawl with silk are normally available on the market at ratios ranging from 50% - 50% to 70% pashmina and 30% silk. This gives strength and adds to the durability of pashmina.

Pashmina shawls are available at their cheapest, as more traders are now catering to the buyers’ demand. Prices are not likely to fall any further because of the limited supply of the fabric. These shawls are also being referred to as Cashmere pashmina shawl, since they come from the Kashmir region in India. However, Cashmere is a different kind of superior quality wool and is not to be linked to pashmina.

Pashmina wool is a very special kind of wool and is in no way to be considered and treated as a normal woolen item. Made from one of the most delicate yarns, pashmina shawls merit special care and attention. Many pashmina owner's, ignorant about the extra care it needs, have rued over their decision to handle it a little less delicately. Pashm, as the wool is called, is very fine, about 1/6 th the thickness of human hair. At 12 microns, pashm obviously needs more care than your ordinary woolen sweater.

How To Care Pashmina

Here are some helpful tips on how to care for your pashmina shawls .

• Depending on the quality of the fabric, it will help to occasionally dry clean your pashmina shawl at a dry cleaning store that understands pashmina.

• If you decide to wash your pashmina at home, use either lukewarm or cold water.

• Never use harsh detergents or soap bars. To help retain the softness of the fabric, use baby shampoo, or pH-neutral detergent.

• Since the fabric is delicate, refrain from squeezing or wringing it tightly. A gentle squeeze will suffice. Do not rub the fabric either. Caress the fabric gently, and allow it soak the detergent for about 10 to 15 minutes.

• Rinse the shawl or sweater in lukewarm or cold water thoroughly until you run off the suds.

• Allow the water to drain for sometime and re-shape the garment to its original size and shape.

• Next, place the garment on a dry towel, and allow it to dry in shade, away from direct heat and sunlight.

• Iron your pashmina on low heat using a damp cloth.

• If your pashmina acquires stubborn ink, coffee, or wine stains using Gonzo stain remover that is non-toxic, odorless, and non-flammable will help.

Having said all that, the safest bet is to dry clean your pashmina stole or shawl. The above tips are a second best option. Store your pashmina in a cool dry place, away from heat and humidity. Use mothballs for extra safety.

How To Care Pashmina

2008-09-28T10:24:00.000-07:00

You can either dry clean or hand wash your pashmina.
If you decide to hand wash, we recommend using a non-alkaline gentle wool friendly detergent.
After washing, roll your pashmina in a towel to absorb moisture.
Gently shake your pashmina and lay it flat to dry. Turn over once to prevent wrinkles and better drying.
Always fold pashmina and store in drawers using cedar blocks to safeguard against moths and help keep your pashmina in tip top condition for years to come.

Hijab (Hejab, Hijaab): Hijab (Islamic dress for women) supplement

2008-09-15T15:49:00.000-07:00

Allah (SWT) states in Holy Qur'an: "Not for (idle) sport did We create the heavens and the earth and all that is between! If it had been Our wish to take (just) a pastime, We should surely have taken it from the things nearest to Us, if We would do (such a thing)." Holy Qur'an (21:16-17)

The above verse amply emphasizes the seriousness with which Allah (SWT) created this world and everything that exists therein, including the human beings. Allah (SWT) created us for a specific and important purpose and it is the duty of every Muslim to lead a disciplined life, realizing the seriousness of this purpose.

Human beings must distinguish themselves from animals by decent and disciplined behavior. But how many of us take this life with the seriousness it deserves? All of us originated from one father and one mother and belong to one big family, but it is unfortunate that many of us live without any sense of collective responsibility. We are one community and the action of one-person will not only reflect on other individuals but also the whole community.

In no other religion in the world is human life to be considered to be so sacred that one man's murder is considered to be the murder of the entire human race, and whoever saves a life it is as if he had saved the lives of all mankind.

Allah (SWT) states in Holy Qur'an: "For this reason did We prescribe to the children of Israel that whoever slays a soul, unless it be for manslaughter or for mischief in the land, it is as though he slew all men; and whoever keeps it alive, it is as though he kept alive all men." Holy Qur'an (5:32)

When Allah (SWT) commanded our sisters to observe Hijab, it was because of the universal damages that would be caused by refusing to observe it. It is not a matter of individual behavior, as many people may think. A woman going out exposing her charms attracts men, which sets off a chain of undesirable events, causing lot of harm to several people. Thus, the indecent behavior of one person affects the community as a whole. Although the person, who originally caused the damage, is to be blamed for all the consequences, other members of the community are also responsible to some extent for allowing such a thing to happen. Therefore, it becomes a collective responsibility of all of us to ensure that such damages are not caused.

For example, some people were sailing in a boat, which they jointly owned when one of them stated making a hole in the place which was allocated to him in the boat. When others tried to stop him, he argued that it was his part of the boat and he was free to do whatever he wished. But if he was allowed to continue, the boat would sink and all of them would be drowned.

Discarding Hijab will harm not only one's own self but also millions of others. Exposure of physical charm of our women may destroy many homes and cause innumerable rapes and murders for which we all are responsible.

It is pertinent to relate one of the several heart-breaking stories caused by discarding Hijab: A young innocent man, who saw the photograph of an attractive woman, was immediately infatuated by her physical charm. Unfortunately, he had neither wealth nor position to get closer to her. To fulfill his desire, he though of getting money quickly by any means and resorted to stealing.

Finally, he ended up in prison for robbing a few people and killing one.

Who is to be blamed for all the consequences but the person who caused them? Had that woman observed Hijab and refrained from displaying her attractions, these crimes would not have taken place.

Our Holy Prophet Muhammad (saw) has said that on the Day of Judgment, such people would be brought forward for trail on charges of quasi-crimes in which they had a share of responsibility. They would plead that they did not commit those crimes, but then they would be told that they removed their Hijab and attracted this person, which made him indulge in those crimes.

Allah (SWT) states in Holy Qur'an: "Except those who believe and do good and remember Allah much, and defend themselves after they are oppressed; and they who act unjustly shall know to what final place of turning they shall turn back." Holy Qur'an (26:227)

Liberation or Sexploitation
Look at the glossy cover of any magazine or advertisements on TV and newspaper, you will find that most of these advertisements have scantily dressed women in alluring poses to attract the attention of men. This proves that the Western society considers woman only as a sex symbol.

The liberation of women in Islam is far superior to Western liberation as it allows women to live with respect, dignity and equality in society.

Equality does not mean aping and behaving like men or dancing to their carnal tunes; that would be an act of inferiority in the face of one's own femininity.

A truly liberated woman always dresses decently and modestly. A true woman will never degrade her body and sell her dignity to the highest bidder. No woman is truly liberated if she is still the slave of her wayward conscience, bodily lust or infidelity.

However, in Islam, women, whatever their role as mothers, wives, sisters or daughters, command respect and have a constructive role to play in society. The Hijab itself gives an aura of freedom to the womankind, facilitating their movement and protecting them from provocation and wanton greed of the human wolves. Removal of the Hijab makes you vulnerable to the lust of men.

By removing your Hijab, you have destroyed your faith. Islam means submission to Allah (SWT) in all our actions. Those who refuse submission cannot be called Muslims.

What is Hijab? (Hijaab (Muslim Veil), Hejab (An Act of Faith), Islamic dress for women)
There are many sisters who have failed to understand the actual meaning of Hijab. Hijab technically means covering. Islam desires the preservation of social tranquility and familial peace. Hence, it asks women to cover themselves in their inter-actions with men, whom they are not related to.

Why is Hijab necessary? (Hijabs, Hijab Pictures, Hijab Girls, Hijabi Fashion)
The dangerous consequences of the Western culture of nakedness and permissiveness are before us. We should think twice before blindly trying to imitate Western life-styles.

How should women observe Hijab correctly?
Basically, the dress of ladies should cover the whole body except the face and hands (i.e. palms and fingers). Hair should not be exposed because Islam considers it as half of the total beauty of women. The Hijab could be of any form and color, a one-piece chader or a three-piece ensemble, as long as it is not tight fitting and does not attract people's attention.

Baseless objections against Hijab

Hijab seeks to imprison women: Those who feel that Hijab imprisons women should refrain from living in houses because it is nearer to a prison than Hijab.
Hijab subordinates women: In fact, culture, which promotes nakedness, takes people nearer to the culture of animals. Wearing the Hijab, on the contrary, liberates women from the trap of Western fashion and maladies. It gives them greater, rather than less freedom and mobility.
Why only women? Science has confirmed that visual stimulation plays a predominant role in the physiology of men compared to women. The fact that the sex-industry in the West is targeted towards the male-market confirms it.
Victims of Ridicule: Some of our sisters come up with the excuse that the non-believers laugh at them if they observe Hijab and they feel degraded. They may laugh for a little while but after some time they will have no choice but to respect the Muslim women observing Hijab for their discipline, which could not be shaken, by their little laughs.
Let us not forget the famous phrase: The one who laughs last laughs the longest.
Beauty is meant to be appreciated: True! But only by the husband. Hence women who truly love their husbands would never wish to be seen in public without Hijab.

What are the disadvantages of discarding Hijab?

Becoming an easy target of anti-social elements.
Causing great stresses, insecurity and suspicion in the minds of husbands, ultimately disturbing the familial harmony.
Instigating young people to deviate towards the path of lust and immorality.
Giving rise to cases of divorce, adultery, rape and illegitimate children.

What are the advantages of observing Hijab?

Confidence in social participation as human being and not as sexual commodity.
Guarding one self from the lustful looks of men.
Not diverting people's attention from constructive social work.
Improving the moral character of the society.

In conclusion, women can achieve true dignity and experience true emancipation by observing Hijab and not by discarding it.

Hijab (Modesty) is also for Muslim Men
"Say to the believing men that they cast down their looks and guard their private parts; that is purer for them; surely Allah is Aware of what they do." Holy Qur'an (24:30)

To cast down one's glance, means not to look in a fixed way, not to stare. The sentence means, "Tell the believers not to stare at or flirt with women."

Allah (SWT) has given equal rights to both men and women; He forbids either sex claiming supremacy over the other. Allah (SWT) states in the Holy Qur'an: "The most honored of you in the sight of Allah is (he who is) the most righteous of you." Holy Qur'an (49:13)

What successful women have to say about Hijab (Islamic dress for women)?

It is amazing the way things changed overnight when I started on with Hijab. I can feel the extra respect coming my way. People take me more seriously; friends at college think it looks very neat and smart, and I feel protected and confident when I step out. Dr. Mrs. N.Z.Vakil (Medical Student)

The most important thing about Hijab is that it gives you an identity of a Muslim. Moreover, it is another way of obedience to Allah's (SWT) command. People often gives me due respect which I would have not got without a Hijab. Traveling among men has become easy for me as it makes me feel safe and protected. It also gives me a lot of confidence and last but not the least this has brought me one step closer to Allah (SWT). Therefore, I consider Hijab as a blessing from Allah (SWT) and I thank him for His blessing. Reshma Qazi (Arts Student)

The Angel of Death, Azrael (Ezra'il) said: "Obedience to Allah's (SWT) Commandments is better than compassion to the earth". Initially I felt I would be looked down upon in society, but after wearing Hijab, I realized that people do not give you as much importance as you feel they should. The nearness, which I felt to Allah (SWT) by obeying His commandment, is beyond expression. Moreover wearing Hijab has created an aura of respectability in my environment and has enabled me to remember Allah (SWT) more often. Mrs. S.A. Vakil (House Wife)

I feel that at present when demoralization is increasing in the society, every woman should wear Hijab, It is the only thing which protects a woman and makes her feel secured. Shenaz. F. Raj (College Student)

In the modern society of today, a woman has always been looked upon as just another sexual object for the men. Why should one display one's beauty for unwanted eyes to feast upon? The Hijab protects a woman's honor and doesn't arouse unwanted passion from the opposite sex. I feel if the women were to universally adopt the Islamic code of dressing (Islamic dress for women); the rate of incidences of eves teasing, molestation, rape, etc. would be negligible. Wearing the Hijab gives me more confidence in myself as a woman and it doesn't obstruct me in any way in my profession. Mrs. Salva I. Rasool (Graphic Designer)

The stylish coat can be worn in many different patterns; it loosely falls from the shoulders and reaches the knees.

A loose long coat falling from the shoulders and reaching the ankles can also be worn with a scarf covering all the hair. The scarf can also have a veil attached to cover the total face (Niqab).

A scarf covering the hair fully, can be worn along with a loose shirt falling till the knees as trousers. (Hair should not be seen from below the scarf).

This Hijab commonly known as the "Chadar" is a single piece of material which falls from head and is draped on the shoulder. A scarf too can be worn inside it, to cover all the hair.

Why Hijab Is Necessary? (Hijab in islam)

2008-09-15T15:43:00.000-07:00

Until the Imperialists invaded Muslim Countries and the Muslims started mixing with non-believers, all our Muslim women walked in this world with great respect and dignity. The non-believers were finding it very difficult to come anywhere near the border of our Muslim sisters purity. The Hijab (Islamic dress for women) did not only protect them from those evil eyes of non-believers but also gave them freedom and independence from being misused by them.

The non-believers planned to destroy their barrier through removal of Hijab (Hejab, Hijaab) and unfortunately, many of our sisters, without realizing what shame and destruction they were bringing to themselves, removed the Hijab (Muslim Veil) and exposed themselves.

When imperialists invaded China, they were not faced with Hijab but were confronted with other obstacles and the Chinese refused to co-operate with them. In order to crush this resistance, the imperialists flooded China with opium and made it available to the Chinese free of charge. Once the Chinese were addicted, free distribution of opium ceased and it was given only to those who fulfilled their demands.

Removal of the Hijab had exactly the same effect. At one time, you were independent and lived with dignity, but now you are nothing but a slave of your evil desire and behave worse than a Kafir (infidel). By removing your Hijab (An Act of Faith), you have destroyed your faith. Islam means submission to Allah (SWT) in all our action. Those who refused submission cannot be called Muslims. Allah (SWT) states in Holy Qur'an: "And say to the believing women that they cast down their looks and guard their private parts and do not display their ornaments except what appears thereof, and let them wear their head-coverings over their bosoms, and not display their ornaments except to their husbands or their fathers, or the fathers of their husbands, or their sons, or the sons of their husbands, or their brothers, or their brothers' sons, or their sisters' sons, or their women, or those whom their right hands possess, or the male servants not having need (of women), or the children who have not attained knowledge of what is hidden of women; and let them not strike their feet so that what they hide of their ornaments may be known; and turn to Allah all of you, O believers! So that you may be successful." Holy Qur'an (24:31)

Also, Imam Jafar Sadiq (as) says: Modesty is the symbol of faith and whoever has no modesty (Hijab), has no religion.

There are many sisters who have failed to understand the actual meaning of Hijab.

To observe proper Hijab is to dress up oneself modestly and appropriately covering all parts of body except face and forearms, without showing one's figure or curves and without using any sort of make-up.

Allah (SWT) has given equal rights to both men and women; He forbids either sex claiming supremacy over the other.

Allah (SWT) states in Holy Qur'an: "O mankind! We created you from a single (pair) of a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that ye may know each other (not that ye may despise (each other). Verily the most honoured of you in the sight of Allah is (he who is) the most righteous of you. And Allah has full knowledge and is well acquainted (with all things)." Holy Qur'an (49:13)

Hijab is one of the righteous deeds and it is a sign of honor and equality with men and stands as a shield of protection against evil man.

The woman in Islam is bestowed with respect and honour and a Muslim gives great importance to his wife. Our Holy Prophet Muhammad's (saw) Hadith says the best of you are those who are best in resting their wives.

The status of wife is so respectable that she is not bound to do any house-hold work unless she does it willingly and with affection; but if her husband forces her to do any work; he will have to answer to Allah (SWT) for his conduct. Also, she is not bound to earn and maintain the house of her husband. Her work shall always conform to the laws of Islam (Shariat). Unlike the Western world, the Muslim wife is a queen in her husband's house. The first thing a husband does for his wife is to provide a servant and a cook according to his ability and when she becomes a mother, she receives greatest respect from her husband. Contrary to this, is considered a sin by Allah (SWT).

One of the most common phrases in Islam is the 'Paradise lies at the feet of the mother'. And Allah (SWT) states in Holy Qur'an: "And your Lord has commanded that you shall not serve (any) but Him, and goodness to your parents. If either or both of them reach old age with you, say not to them (so much as) "Ugh" nor chide them, and speak to them a generous word." Holy Qur'an (17:23)

Allah (SWT) has given great impedance to women and for that reason He orders their children to address them in terms of honor.

What kind of dignity a non-believer has by the way; they conduct their life and expose themselves. They have removed the shield of protection, that modesty of Hijab and left themselves unprotected and that is the cause for the assault, which takes place once every ten seconds in rape and murder around the world. But those true Muslims who observe proper Hijab are protected from such assaults and not one ease or this type is ever heard of.

Moreover Hijab also gives the women an air of authority, dignity and respect, which a non-believer can never claim to possess. Only those who are well behaved can expect admiration and high esteem from others and definitely, those who try to attract men can never be called a well-behaved person.

Those who reject Hijab and wish to attract men are suffering from inferiority complex. They believe men are superior and in order to overcome this feeling, they use their feminine charms. But why should a Muslim woman have such a feeling when she is fully aware of her equality with men?

Hijab, therefore, has such benefits as a guard against any assault, equality with men, air of respect and honor and most important of all, obedience to Allah (SWT) which is equivalent to blood of martyr. Hijab requires women to avoid any sort of attraction to men.

We have many Muslims sisters who are more concerned to please themselves and their non-believer friends than Allah (SWT). Let us not forget the purpose of our existence, which is to cultivate love and affection for Allah in our heart and not for anything else. How can we create that love when we disobey Him? Adoration and affection come from the heart and those who truly love Allah (SWT) will not do anything contrary to this.

Some of our sisters come up with the excuse that the non-believers laugh at them if they observe Hijab and they feel degraded. They may laugh for a little while but after some time, they will have no choice but to respect the Muslim women observing Hijab for their discipline and principles which could not be shaken by their little laugh.

Let us not forget the famous phrase: He who laughs last laughs the longest.

A Muslim sister lives for the future and not for the day; we can all look forward to be in Heaven for believing and obeying Allah (SWT).

Hijab is one of the commandments of Allah (SWT). The Holy Prophet Muhammad (saw) said that those women who do not observe proper Hijab are blatantly defying the commandment of Allah (SWT). Ahlul Bayt (as) suffered hardships and offered unparalleled sacrifices to bring original Islam to us. Discarding Hijab puts their sacrifices in vain. And the pleasure of Allah (SWT) is the greatest bliss. But for those who disobeyed, what punishment is awaiting them but Hell-Fire!

Hijab

2008-09-15T13:42:00.000-07:00

Hijab or ħijāb (حجاب, pronounced: [ħi.ˈdʒæːb]) is the Arabic term for "cover" (noun), based on the root حجب meaning "to veil, to cover (verb), to screen, to shelter".

In some Arabic-speaking countries and Western countries, the common meaning of hijab currently is of "modest dress for women," which most Islamic legal systems define as covering everything except the face and hands in public.^[1] Since the 1970s, hijab has emerged as a symbol of Islamic consciousness "and an affirmation of Islamic identity and morality" in opposition to "Western materialism, commercialism, and values."^[2]

According to Islamic scholarship, hijab is given the wider meaning of modesty, privacy, and morality.^[2] The word used in the Qur'an for a headscarf or veil is khimār (خمار). Still another definition is metaphysical, where al-hijab "refers to the veil which separates man or the world from God."^[3]

According to the Encyclopedia of Islam and the Muslim World, the meaning of hijab has evolved over time:

The term hijab or veil is not used in the Qur'an to refer to an article of clothing for women or men, rather it refers to a spatial curtain that divides or provides privacy. The Qur'an instructs the male believers (Muslims) to talk to wives of Muhammad behind a hijab. This hijab was the responsibility of the men and not the wives of Muhammad. However, in later Muslim societies this instruction, specific to the wives of Muhammad, was generalized, leading to the segregation of the Muslim men and women. The modesty in Qur'an concerns both men's and women's gaze, gait, garments, and genitalia. The clothing for women involves khumūr over the necklines and jilbab (cloaks) in public so that they may be identified and not harmed. Guidelines for covering of the entire body except for the hands, the feet, and the face, are found in texts of fiqh and hadith that are developed later.^[4]
