    Hijab, Recommended or Mandatory? .

    Response: No where in the Qur'an or Sunnah is hair called a private part. So quoting verses that say to cover the private part is not proof that one must cover their hair. Furthermore, your inability to comprehend the Qur'an and Sunnah does not mean others cannot as well. For I understand the...

    Hijab, Recommended or Mandatory? .

    No verse in the Qur'an says it is mandatory to cover the head, supported by the fact that the words "head cover" or anything synonymous to it can be quoted. Thus it is clear that the Qur'an does not mandate a head cover, as demonstrated in the OP.
  3. Al-Fatihah

    Hijab, Recommended or Mandatory? .

    Response: In other words, you have no evidence . Did we see you provide any ancient Arabic writing from the first century of Islam where the word Khimar means head cover only? No. Do we see above anywhere where it shows that the head cover was a common practice during the Prophet's life or...
  4. Al-Fatihah

    Hijab, Recommended or Mandatory? .

    Response: All of which makes my point. You trust the opinion of scholars with no logical reason or evidence to support it. Then claim an opposing view is illogical even though you blindly follow an opinion which is not logically supported. So you make my point that your method of taqleed is...
  5. Al-Fatihah

    Hijab, Recommended or Mandatory? .

    Response: To the contrary, arguments like yours are similar to those who practice taqleed and bidah, by blindly following innovations with no logical evidence. You have parroted and accepted what was told to you and you take the opinions of scholars without verifying whether their opinion is...
  6. Al-Fatihah

    Hijab, Recommended or Mandatory? .

    Response: You have not refuted anything. You do not have any ancient Arabic writings from the time of the Prophet or as even as early as within the first century after the time of the Prophet in which the word khimar is used only to refer to covering the head or hair. Where is it? You provided...
  7. Al-Fatihah

    Hijab, Recommended or Mandatory? .

    Response: Claiming to have evidence from the Qur'an and Sunnah means that you can quote the words "the head cover is mandatory" or something synonymous to it. You did not. Thus your own failure to do so shows there is no such evidence and the head cover is not mandatory. Otherwise, you would be...
  8. Al-Fatihah

    Hijab, Recommended or Mandatory? .

    Response: Your claims only makes my point. You want us to accept that a head cover is mandatory, then present a post in which no where could you quote a verse from the Qur'an or Sunnah that says the head cover is mandatory. Not one. Thus making my point. You do not have any ancient Arabic...
  9. Al-Fatihah

    Hijab, Recommended or Mandatory? .

    Response: If it is fallible, then one should be able to demonstrate so. Yet no one has done so. The Qur'an says to use reason. Truth is defined by logic and reason. So as long as what I have stated cannot be shown to be illogical, then my "own" interpretation is valid. So I say I am in good...
  10. Al-Fatihah

    Hijab, Recommended or Mandatory? .

    Response: To the contrary, what is danger is to ignore the words of Allah who is perfect and says we should use logic and reason (10:100), that the word truth is based on logic and reason, and instead rely on scholars who are not infallible and do not use logic. If you are for truth you would...
  11. Al-Fatihah

    Hijab, Recommended or Mandatory? .

    In verse 24:31, we read that it says to draw the khimar over the bosom. Modern dictionaries and scholars will define the word Khimar to mean a head cover. Yet was this the meaning at the time of revelation? The root word is khamr, which means to cover and is also the same root word used for...
