[quote]Salaam [quote] You have provided no evidence to answer my paper, and so I remain correct and you remain incorrect. [/quote] Ok Mr Modest let look at the evidence you have provided: [quote] They must draw their HEAD COVERINGS around and over their bosoms. [/quote] You have quite correctly stated the above and then: [quote] It is disingenuous and illogical to say that they must/can remove their head coverings to cover their bosoms [/quote] What has this to do with the above verse. READ WHAT YOU HAVE WRITTEN. i.e use your head covering to cover your bossoms. IT DOES NOT SAY COVER YOUR HEAD. If you draw that inference that is all your doing interperting it according to your whims for there is nothing in the above which says cover your head. I am no expert in clothing but exactly how do you cover your bosoms and head with the same scarf. Has it not occured to you that God considered covering the bosoms far more appropriate than the head. DO NOT CONFUSE YOUR OPINION WITH FACTS. [quote] because: - There is no need to do so in order to fulfill the command. The hair of a woman is a part of her beauty, of what makes her attractive. So it must be covered. [/quote] Again your opinion not a stated fact. Indeed some may consider a covered woman as more attractive because it adds mystique to her appearence-what do you suggest then nakedness! [quote] It’s like saying (within the context of modesty) “I was told to cover my navel with my top… so I took off my top and wrapped it around my belly”… Illogical. [/quote] And exactly which verse are you referring to here. The example is illogical and makes no sense in relation to any Quranic referrence. [quote] But this is the position of the liberal Muslim, they say (by analogy), well Allah only said to cover the naval, so covering anything else must be a cultural thing that we can choose to do or not do. [/quote] ????????? [quote] To say that you are not told to cover your head is also disingenuous, [/quote] Why is disingenious? do you think God is incapable of not being specific? [quote] because if you are told to cover your bosoms with your head covering (within the context of modesty), it is taken for granted that you are covering your head, [/quote] Only by you and those who like you think that God is incapable of being exact. [quote] so there is no need to explicitly state it. [/quote] No need. Correct but not for the reason you mention. Interesting you accept that it is not explicity stated and then draw a conclusion and expect everyone to accept your conclusion as fact-very logical! [quote] The Qur’an makes the practice of the headscarf covering the head and the bosoms into a rule. [/quote] You state that it does not mention head covering explicity but now say it is a Quranic rule. We obviousouly have different idea as to what constitutes a Quranic rule. I think you need to be clear what is a fact and what is opinion. Your opinion (no matter how clever you think it is) does not become a Quranic fact. Simple every day scenario. If I ask you use you bed covering to cover your dining table (let us ignore my reasons for the moment) I am not telling you to cover both but explicity told you to cover your dining table with your bed covering. If I wanted you to cover both even simpleton like me would have said so and yet we are talking about God (who never runs out of word). I WILL STATE AGAIN YOUR OPINION IS YOUR OPINION AND NOT QURANIC FACT. regards[/quote]
