Features In Modest Islamic Clothing

By Dorothy Walker


Islamic fashion is highly adopted from Quran hadiths. These are teachings that are meant to guide their members on modest livelihood. Otherwise, these regulations differ with the different factions within this religion, and some are thought to be very demanding whereas others are taken to be very lenient. The following are features in modest Islamic clothing.

Males are expected to avoid haram items and practice. Haram is an Arabic word meaning something that is against sharia laws. Wearing of silvers commonly regarded as bling and silk clothing is greatly prohibited. They are expected to be worn by women for decoration purposes. Their underneath attire should not go beyond their ankles since these are regarded as uncaring move to indicate how much you can afford different attire.

Wearing is not meant to flaunt and imitate others. Muslim brothers must wear simple clothing which does not exhibit their wealth or does not undermine others. Even so, they are expected not to imitate others be it, women or non-Muslim fellows. It is thought that their imitation of non-Islam might simply coerce them into believing and adopting their values.

Every woman is required to hide most of their body part. One cannot expose their body apart from their hands or head, but this can differ depending with factions. This should particularly be observed in the presence of non-Muslims. Traditional attire is regarded to be black to avoid seeing through the material. Lenient members consider any color as long it is not a see me through the material and does not show the appearance of their body.

Their head cover varies with the respective subgroup. Conservative factions prefer the burka which completely covers the whole head and leaving a mesh or grill for the woman to see through. The lenient group makes use of the hijab and dupatta which both are veil which is separate from the hijab. The niqab is another type worn by conservatives which is an extension of the hijab but leaves out the oval part of the head.

Their underneath has no regulations like the men attire. Their baseline expectation is to avoid exposing most of their body parts. However, one is only required to expose themselves to brothers to their husbands or their own or any other close male relative. Others including strange Muslim brothers should not see their exposed body.

Despite the strict regulations in their fashion, many western countries are against this for a couple of reasons. Hiding one face is highly disregarded since one cannot easily identify anyone identity. This is mostly meant for security purpose. Women who have been married to other cultures have to leave out their regulations and blend with their new ideologies.

These changes have been marked by the adoption of modest modern fashion which blends in with the western clothing. Men are wearing casual attire adding on to other variety which remains to signify their Islamic identity. Ladies wear loose top covering as far as their thighs and loose trousers matching their top shade. Hijab has been maintained to show their identity altogether.
