Some people claim thatHijaab)Islamic covering( was introduced after
the advent of Islam and that it did not exist in Arabia or outside of
it before the call of Prophet Muhammad,sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam.
Anyone who reads the Old Testament and the New Testament easily
recognizes that theHijaabwas known among the Hebrews since the time of
Ibraaheem )Abraham(, may Allaah exalt his mention, throughout the eras
of their Prophets, until after the advent of Christianity. There is
repeated reference to theHijaabin many books of the Old and New
Testaments.
·The Book of Genesis, ]24:64, 65[ says:"Rebekah also looked up and saw
Isaac. She got down from her camel and asked the servant, "Who is that
man in the field coming to meet us?" "He is my master," the servant
answered. So she took her veil and covered herself."
·The fifth song of the Songs of Solomon, a woman says:"Tell me, you
whom I love, where you graze your flock and where you rest your sheep
at midday.Why should I be like a veiled woman beside the flocks of
your friends?"
·The Book of Isaiah ]3:16-24[ says:
16 The LORD says, "The women of Zion are haughty, walking along with
outstretched necks, flirting with their eyes, tripping along with
mincing steps, with ornaments jingling on their ankles.
17 Therefore the Lord will bring sores on the heads of the women of
Zion; the Lord will make their scalps bald."
18 In that day the Lord will snatch away their finery: the bangles and
headbands and crescent necklaces,
19 The earrings, the bracelets and veils,
20 The head dresses and ankle chains and sashes, the perfume bottles and charms,
21 The signet rings and nose rings,
22 The fine robes and the capes and cloaks, the purses
23 And mirrors, and the linen garments and tiaras and shawls.
24 Instead of fragrance there will be a stench; instead of a sash, a
rope; instead of well dressed hair, baldness; instead of fine
clothing, sackcloth: instead of beauty, branding.
25 Your men will fall by the sword, your warriors in battle.
·The Book of Genesis says: "Then said Judah to Tamar his daughter in
law, Remain a widow at thy father's house, till Shelah my son be
grown: for he said, Lest peradventure he die also, as his brethren
did. And Tamar went and dwelt in her father's houseand she put her
widow's garments off from her, and covered her with a veil, and
wrapped herself…"
·In the First Epistle to the Corinthians, Paul the Apostle says that
the veil honors women. Christian women used to veil their faces when
meeting strangers and take it off when they were in their homes
wearing mourning clothes.
Therefore, religious scriptures of the Jews and Christians )which
preceded the noble Quran( mention the veil and headdresses.
The Romans used to enact laws that forbade women two hundred years
before Jesus, may Allaah exalt his mention, not to appear with their
adornment on roads.Lex Oppiawas a law that forbade women to exaggerate
in adornment even inside their houses.
Concerning the pre-Islamic era, the reports of Arab women adhering
toHijaabare just as numerous as reports of women unveiling. In fact,
the violation of women's concealment was the reason behind the second
day of the first war ofFijaar. Some young men from Quraysh and Banu
Kinaanah saw a beautiful woman from Banu 'Aamir in the 'Ukaath Market.
They asked her to unveil her face, but she refused. Therefore, one of
them humiliated her and she sought help from her people. Pre-Islamic
poetry frequently refers to theHijaabof Arab women.

*- WHAT ISLAM SAYS -*
-
Islam is a religion of Mercy, Peace and Blessing. Its teachings emphasize kind hear tedness, help, sympathy, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and care.Qur’an, the Shari’ah and the life of our beloved Prophet (SAW) mirrors this attribute, and it should be reflected in the conduct of a Momin.Islam appreciates those who are kind to their fellow being,and dislikes them who are hard hearted, curt, and hypocrite.Recall that historical moment, when Prophet (SAW) entered Makkah as a conqueror. There was before him a multitude of surrendered enemies, former oppressors and persecutors, who had evicted the Muslims from their homes, deprived them of their belongings, humiliated and intimidated Prophet (SAW) hatched schemes for his murder and tortured and killed his companions. But Prophet (SAW) displayed his usual magnanimity, generosity, and kind heartedness by forgiving all of them and declaring general amnesty...Subhanallah. May Allah help us tailor our life according to the teachings of Islam. (Aameen)./-
