The True Meaning Of Modest Islamic Clothing

By Sharon Powell


Many people have these misconceptions related to Islamic clothing especially for women. People think that this type of clothing reflects oppression of women in the Islamic society. In reality, modest Islamic clothing does not reflect oppression at all, in fact the reason behind Muslim women wearing modest clothes is to keep themselves covered for the sake of preserving their beauty.

Islamic culture does encourage women to wear hijab and cover themselves up appropriately but that does not means burka is a compulsory aspect of Islam. It is just one of the ways to cover your body nothing more than that. You can still wear modest clothing even if you don't wear a burka.

It is up to you that what sort of style you opt for. Many women prefer wearing a black burka as they think its the best way to cover themselves up. On the other hand, there are women who want to cover themselves but in a stylish way and that is quite possible.

The whole concept is to avoid wearing garments that can be a bit revealing and show off your body parts. It is totally possible to dress modestly even whilst you wear a pair of jeans and t-shirt because if your clothes are loosely fitted they won't reveal a thing which is simply amazing.

One of the reasons women wear burka as its a convenient solution for them. For instance, when you are at home, you remain in your comfort zone and you can wear any garment of your choice but if you have to go somewhere out, you would need to change your clothes. Therefore, in order to avoid that hassle, women tend to wear burka on top of their clothes and it fully covers them up. You have to protect yourself so that no other person can see your beauty.

If you prefer to be dressed in a bit style then you could take help from online tutorial videos. There are plenty of them and you would learn how to wear hijab in different styles and how to carry yourself modestly. It is totally your decision how you want to cover yourself up because at the end of the day it is your life.

It is an unfortunate thing that women are falsely assumed to be oppressed in this beautiful religion because that is not the case at all. Women liberation is widely advocated in Islam and the reason behind asking women to cover up themselves is for their own security and safety and to ensure they remain safe from any sort of sexual attack.

Not only women, men are also asked to dress in a way that they look modest. Both men and women are treated equally in this religion and both are given the freedom to choose what they want to wear whilst considering the modest aspect. It all depends on your understanding about your religion and how you interpret its teaching in an effective and useful way because these days, Islam is being misrepresented on international stage which is very saddening.
