[quote][green]In the same way, although Allah hasn't said that covering the head is obligatory, the women of the Holy Prophet's (SAW) time have proved that it [b]is[/b]. [/green]

Allah actually has never said anything about the beard. However, the men at the Prophet's time wore a beard.

Now there is [b]disagreement[/b] on whether beard is part of the Sunnah or not. The same holds for Hijab as well.

[green]Not a single one was seen without a head-cover, and not even [b]unauthentic[/b] traditions mention the uncovering of the head. [/green]

Same holds for the beard as well. All Companions had it and not a single tradition mentions on shaving the beard.

[green]According to your logic, wearing silk and gold is also not Haraam because, as you say, "Allah has not mentioned it". [/green]

Just because something is not explicitly haram, does not mean one should do it. Example: Smoking. The evidence is clear. Smoking kills, yet it is not haraam.

The issue is left to the discretion of the individual.

Btw let me share some pictures from the movie 'Nativity Story' on the head cover of women in Biblical times.
