Ideal Women Before Marriage and After Marriage

Description

In this essay, Dr Darsh sheds much light on the issue of niqāb, and on the historical debates regarding the correct dress for a Muslim woman. However, the fact remains that there are differences among the classical scholars of Islam as to whether or not the face is ‘awrah. It is, however, worth remembering that these scholars refrained from denouncing those who held different views as kāfirs and such like! Human nature being what it is, different people will always choose to follow different interpretations. That is in fact a blessing in Islam.
