[quote]Shehzad Saleem's response follows my queries/comments: 1) For a woman the head is not included in the awrah (Tariq Hashmi). Also, when alone a woman can pray without the head cover (Shehzad Saleem). By extension of this logic, a group of women can pray without head covering (in absence of men so far). This much has been established. And if women can roam the streets without the head covering (where impure intentions abound in greater probability) technically in absence of obligation, then they most surely can while in prayer (in presence of men and certainly when alone or in presence of other women). If an act is not obligatory then we must have examples like women praying without head cover, if only to dispel the obligatoriness of the command. Else we will have made a recommended action into an obligatory action in the garb of ettiquette and manners. Response: 1. Since the quran has discussed the hijaab directives in detail, the madatory and the optional must be derived from these verses and not from the general adherence of people to certain mannerisms. hence if the quran has not regarded the hijab of the head as obligatory, adherence to it shall be understood to mean an adherence to customs and conventions. 2) If the head cover is merely recommended and not obligatory, then it is not very different from a beard. So we cannot be more emotional on the head cover than on the beard. Response: 2. yes indeed.[/quote]
