The document discusses the concept of hijab in Islam. It defines hijab as meaning "to hide from view, conceal, or cover something" and that it includes the complete modest dress of a woman. It outlines six criteria for hijab, such as loose fitting clothes that do not reveal figure and do not resemble clothing of non-believers. The document provides verses from the Quran and sayings of Prophet Muhammad to explain that hijab is more than just a headscarf and involves modest conduct and speech.

3. Hijab is not a piece
of cloth on your head.
It's a way of life.
4. Hijab means to hide from view, conceal, or
cover something
Hijab is the modest covering of the woman and
includes the complete dress.
Modesty is an essential component of faith
The Prophet said, “Faith consists of more than
sixty branches. And haya is a part of faith.” (Bukhari)
5. Functions of Hijab
More than a religious symbol
Command and test from Allah
Preservation of modesty
Elevation of status
Liberation
Security and protection
Safeguarding of society
6. Six Criteria For Hijab
1. Extent
2. The clothes worn should be loose and should not
reveal the figure
3. The clothes worn should not be transparent such that
one can see through them
4. The clothes worn should not be so glamorous as to
attract the opposite sex
5. The clothes worn should not resemble that of the
opposite sex
6. The clothes worn should not resemble that of the
unbelievers
16. Be careful, even in the way you walk
Remember, you are not a runway model
displaying the latest fashion. Walk with
modesty and you will be respected
19. What about make-up and perfume???
Wearing make up is also part of the
beauty Allaah orders us NOT to
display. So if your head and body are
appropriately covered yet you are
wearing bright red lipstick or dark
eyeliner ….uh sorry, that‟s not
Hijaab, unless you are wearing a face
cover, and keep those nice fragrances
for the home, between you and your
husband. That‟s part of Hijaab too,
even if you are going to the Masjid.
20. The Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa
Sallam) said:
"In later (generations) of my ummah
there will be women who will be dressed
but naked. On top of their heads (what
looks) like camel humps. They will not
enter into paradise or (even) get a smell
of it." (Muslim)
21. On top of their heads (what
dressed but
looks) like camel humps.
naked
23. The Hijaab shouldn‟t attract attention
The dress should not be such that it attracts
men's attention to the woman's beauty. Allaah
clearly states “not to display their beauty.”
26. No laughing, joking, or hanging out with
non-Mahrams
Some sisters assume that since they are
properly covered, its okay for them to sit
around and talk, laugh, joke, etc. with the
men, but that‟s not right, ….
27. „Chatting‟ on the internet/phone is not part of
Hijaab, either
There is no such thing as “we‟re just friends”.
Talking to non-Mahrams is wrong even if it is
through the internet or telephone. Allaah condemns
such sort of things
28. It is not permissible to shake hands with a
non-Mahram.
And no, it is not rude to refuse to shake
hands with non-Muslims. Simply politely
explain that its part of your religion and
they are very understanding.
29. The Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam)
said: “For one of you to be stabbed in the
head with an iron needle is better for him
than to touch a woman who is not
permissible for him.” (at-Tabaraani saheeh
by al-Albaani).
