in response to reader comment: What Hijab?

Submitted by sister in Islam (United States), Feb 13, 2008 at 12:38

This is to brother Mohamed on his comment on hijab, Are you really a Muslim??

because as i read your comment it shows your lack of knowledge about your deen. We are commanded by Allah in the Glorious Quran in Surah Nur that both man and women to cover and observe modesty.

I lived in Saudi Arabia for many years and worked in the field of nsg for many years, but it is not that easy to persuade a saudi women to even removed their veil, forget about asking them to undress for physical exam.So brother please go back to the Quran and the Sunnah and learn your deen because it is very hurting to hear from a muslim brother like you to comment on such thing ...sister in islam
