[quote]In my opinion we have to consider following 2 things before deciding about the Hijab Directive:

1. Face Covering does not eradicate the possibility of being molested.

2. The next 2 verses shows clearly that there was some extraordinary circumstances at that time for which these orders were revealed. The verses 33:60 and 61 states:

[hl]033.060 Truly, if the Hypocrites, and those in whose hearts is a disease, and those who stir up sedition in the City, desist not, We shall certainly stir thee up against them: Then will they not be able to stay in it as thy neighbours for any length of time:[/hl]

[hl]033.061 They shall have a curse on them: whenever they are found, they shall be seized and slain (without mercy).[/hl]

Its obvious from the above 2 verses that the situation at that time was not normal and it was so tense that the penalty for those hypocrites was to kill them without any mercy.

Do you think that now a days even if anybody teases some women like if someone say something bad to a women at some bus stop or at some market, the Penalty for that is to kill without any mercy ?

I hope I am able to clearly convey me message.

Regards
