Eid Adha & the Missing Hijab Videos

dawahworks Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - Lol! "A Western sports jacket." What am I a cowboy? A hope that you don't have elastic in your underwear because that would be hypocrisy. I also hope you don't wear tennis or dress shoes, or even "western" sandals. Any of this would be hypocrisy from your level of understanding.

AbuBakrBashiir Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - Hmm, argumentum ad hominem. Why don't you address the content of my post, primarily the fact you're posting a humiliating video of the sister?

dawahworks Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - O, my bad. I had no idea you wanted me to address only the part of your comment that you were comfortable with.I will think about what you said but hypocrisy is worst than all that.

AbuBakrBashiir Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - Where did I write hypocrisy? I just found it shocking you'd post a video of a sisters awrah while not following a proper Muslim males' dress requirements. You still won't address my question. Perhaps you're the one who's not comfortable.

Oct 11, 2008 - Inshallah the sister will find the strength 2 forget about those around her and remind herself that it is Allah's judgement we should seek for, and true strength and guidance can only come from He.

Oct 11, 2008 - hmmm... the sister was a bit lost.. she has knowledge about islam but finds it difficult to apply it to her daily lives like alot of us...

shezjackson Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - sister is at least honest so that is what i like most, Inshallah she will wear it soon.

liciavershawn Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - She knows she is supposed to wear it, but it sounds like she is afraid to. Islam gets alot of bad "publicity" and you can tell she still has an underlying western view of how Allah has ordained for us to live. She will wear it when its right for her. May allah open her eyes and calm her mind about this.

Oct 11, 2008 - listen up mr(the guy interviewing).this is regard to what you said at 48 seconds of your vid:The Messeneger (SAW) obligated the Muslims to pray Eid al-Adha on the 10th of D. Hijja (wherever they are on that day), and make their sacrifice.No Fiqh school ever obligated the Muslims all over the world to fix their Eid al-Adha by the Hajj date in Makka. None ever claimed that it is Eid al-Hajj.

Oct 11, 2008 - i don't agree with the way he is approaching and talking to this young sister........however what is haram about a so called "western sports jacket"??......lol....Wallahi, some muslims are just confused when it comes to the halal and haram...btw, many things people consider "western" were actually adopted from not so western nations....look at traditional Pakistani clothes (the pants especially) and compare them to today's "western pants" and i'm sure you'll make a "shocking discovery"

dawahworks Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - Wa alaykum As Salaam,Well said.

AbuBakrBashiir Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - I never mentioned haram, halal, or nifaq. These are labels that come to your mind but it's not what I stated. All I'm arguing, besides the main fact that this a video broadcast of a sisters awrah, is that why lecture someone on the ideal way to dress Islamically when you aren't dressed in the ideal manner yourself.

SCRUB50187 Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - What are you talking about??...She already broadcasted her awrah to the world when she stepped foot out her house uncovered...No one forced her to do that...And ur blaming the interviewer and the camera man for video taping an interview with her about being uncovered??...are you kidding me??hmm...what is this "ideal" Islamic manner for a man to dress in??..Dressing like an Arab..NO...Dressing like a Dessi??..NO..Dressing like an African...NO..Let's refer to the Qur'an and the Hadith.

SCRUB50187 Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - Qur'an 7:26"O ye children of Adam! We have bestowed rainment Upon you to cover Your shame, as well as To be an adornment to you. But the rainment of righteousness- That is the best. Such are among the signs of Allah, that they May receive admonition"That verse is pretty straight forward.....Is he not "covering his shame"??(i think he is)In addition to that, it's also understand that a man's awra is his thighs...hence the reason for having to cover from one's navel to the kneescon

SCRUB50187 Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - So to sum it all up, it seems that you are confusing Islam with whatever culture you subscribe to and i'm encouraging you not to do so.....It really does make a lot of Muslims look stupid....This man you are talking about is a Muslim first and an African American second....which still gives him the right to express his culture as long as it doesn't contradict Islam...Remember that Allah has created us into many nations and tribes so that we may KNOW one another.....NOT change one another...

AbuBakrBashiir Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - Abdullah Ibn 'Umar radiallahu 'anhu relates that: He who imitates the kuffar and dies in that state, he will be raised up with them on the Day of Qiyâmat (Judgement).Also the beard should be at least a fistful in length.

AbuBakrBashiir Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - As a responsible Muslim you're required to hide other Muslims sins not video record them and broadcast them on the internet for the sake of a laugh or humiliation. Fear Allah akhi.

SCRUB50187 Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - Oh yeah, that's right, because everthing "not arab or dessi" belongs to the kuffar......WAKE UP!!!! or shut up brother....because you're not making any sense....that quote was intended for those that copy the HARAM stuff that the kuffar wears......and what makes you think the style of clothing popularized by the west was made by the west???....you really need to wake up and realize that there is nothing wrong or Haram about wearing a certain type of jacket...

SCRUB50187 Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - I bet you won't tell those sheikhs from Saudia to hide the sins of the Shias and Ahmadiyyahs.....and vise versa.....because what those sheikhs say is WAAAAAAAAAY worse and more divisive than this guy posting this video.....Like i said, i don't agree with this man approaching this sister and grillingher about hijab......but seeing the way she's dressed, I can GAURANTEE the fact that dudes at the mall or at her school try to chat to her about "how fine she is" or "if they can have her number"

Oct 11, 2008 - She put her foot in her mouth,what a dummy she is.

Oct 11, 2008 - Allah says in Surah 24 Which is Surah Nur ( The Light) Verse number 31: " Tell the BELIEVING women to lower their gaze and to protect their private parts from illegal sexual acts, and tell them to cover their adornments and what is apparent" END OF ARGUMENT! The Quran is the word of God! There in no doubt.. So why argue with its contents! Hijab is COMPULSORY on the Muslim Woman! The knowledge of Allah for mentioning this in a Surah called THE LIGHT is a sign within itself! HAVE FAITH SISTERS!!!!
