Ways Of Modest Islamic Clothing

By Earlene McGee


Ethics can be basically described as the study of good and bad, right and wrong and many other acceptable and non acceptable ways of society. Many societies have different cultures, traditions and norms that they subscribe to. These societies use their cultural ways, norms and taboos to create a distinction between the extremes. This is however a subjective module. Methods of modest Islamic clothing are highly of value to an Islamic society.

However, in the metropolitan communities that we live in today culture has been mixed up and eroded over time. People hardly have a clue about the ways of their forefathers. This therefore makes the use of ethics a bit ambiguous to use to create a way of good and harmonious living. The fact that so many people of different culture live in the same community, tends makes the situation even worse.

Religion proved its worth here as it provided a basis for judging the right from the wrong of various people irrespective of their ethnic background. Religion was fair and it only created a very genuine module. A person belonged to a religion by choice and since all religions almost share the same commandments from God, this became somehow easier to accomplish.

There are various faiths in existence, these vary from one place to another according. The major religions that are found in almost all parts of the world are Islam and Christianity. These two forms the frontline of religion on the globe and most people belong to either one or the other. Each one of them offers a distinct way of life to the followers. This includes prayers, socialization and dress code for some.

Islam however, is one of the purest of religions in the world. The followers of this religion learn the ways of the faith from the holy book known as the Quran. This book is said to have been a gift unto the earth from the heavens. It vividly explains all the expectations that a Muslim should accomplish during their time on earth in order to be received in heaven when the time comes.

The believers of this faith live by five major principles and they are referred to as the pillars of Islam. Among them is total acceptance of Allah as Lord and other, fasting during the holy month, giving to the poor and others. It is very important that a Muslim lives strictly by these pillars and if possible fulfills all of them through their life time in the world.

One of the many aspects that the Islamic religion is strict about is the aspect of dressing. This is also the aspect that makes it the most unique religion. It emphasizes that one dresses modestly t all times. It puts special emphasis on the females. They are required to be well covered properly at all times. This is in order to prevent inciting the men.

The males too are expected to dress decently at all times. They are required to wear trousers long enough to cover he legs adequately. These trousers should not however trail the ground as to gather dirt. The shirts should also be sizable enough to cover majority of the body features
