Islamism is NOT Islam. We need to make that very clear. Speaking your truth about your experiences under a repressive theocratic regime is not (usually) criticism of an entire religion. It's criticism of fundamentalist dictatorships.

I don't care what religion you practice. I don't care if you're Muslim, Christian, Hindu, Baha'i, Sikh, Zoroastrian, Buddhist, Mormon, Samaritan, Druze, Jewish, Jain, pagan, atheist, whatever. I don't care. I only care when you think your beliefs deserve more legal rights than those of others. I only care when you impose your religion on everyone else. And I'm sure most of these women speaking out about their experiences living under the Ayatollah or the Taliban or ISIS feel the same way.

It is not anyone else's business to tell women what to wear. If a woman wants to wear a hijab, that's great, but that needs to be her decision that she is making freely of her own volition. If she wants to not wear a hijab, that's great, but that needs to be her decision that she is making freely of her own volition.

Islamic Fashion: A Timeless Expression of Faith and Style

Islamic fashion is a captivating blend of tradition, culture, and personal expression. It's more than just clothing; it's a reflection of faith, values, and identity. Let's explore the world of Islamic attire.

The Essence of Islamic Dress At the heart of Islamic fashion lies the principle of modesty. Islamic traditional clothing, or Muslim traditional wear, is designed to cover the body respectfully. While styles vary across different cultures, the underlying ethos remains consistent.

For women, the hijab, a headscarf, is a common element. However, the style and how it's worn can differ widely, reflecting personal preference and cultural norms. Men often wear loose-fitting garments like the thobe or dishdasha, which are comfortable and align with Islamic dress codes.

A Symphony of Style and Culture

Muslim culture dress is a vibrant tapestry showcasing the diversity of the Islamic world. From the intricate embroidery of North African caftans to the elegant simplicity of Middle Eastern abayas, each region has its unique interpretation of Islamic fashion. This diversity is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Muslim communities.

Modern Muslimah: Redefining Fashion In recent years, there's been a remarkable rise of Muslim clothing designers who are revolutionizing the fashion industry. They're blending traditional elements with contemporary trends, creating stunning collections that cater to the modern Muslimah. This fusion of heritage and modernity is empowering women to express their faith and style with confidence.

Embracing Modesty, Embracing Beauty Modest fashion is often synonymous with Islamic attire. It's about dressing with grace and dignity, without compromising on style. The beauty of Islamic fashion lies in its ability to combine elegance with modesty, creating looks that are both timeless and inspiring.

Islamic fashion is a dynamic and evolving art form. It's a reflection of the wearer's personality, culture, and spirituality. As the world becomes increasingly interconnected, Islamic fashion continues to captivate hearts and minds, proving that style and faith can coexist harmoniously.

How a Muslimah Should Carry Herself

Shy : it will save her fitnah (temptation).

Quiet : she should not be loud, especally in public.

Be unknown : does not seek popularity. Unheard of to the creation, but known by Allāh ﷻ and His angels.

Dress modestly : she covers her awrah, has haya' (shyness), and does not display for herself for everyone to see.

Feminine : not a feminist. She follows the laws ordered by Allāh ﷻ, not the laws of man.

Does not seek attention : not desire for attention or recognition. Pleases the Creator, not the creation.

Has self-respect : focuses on guarding and preserving herself.

Stays at home : prioritize home life, only goes out when necessary. She travels with a mahram for safety. And she covers her awrah when going out.

How a Muslim Man Should Carry Himself

Modest : follows the Islamic guidelines on covering the male awrah, and lowers his gaze.

Humble : pratices humility, avoiding arrogance and riya' (showing off).

Respects women : treats all women with kindness and respect, not just those who he's attracted too.

Pious : devotes himself to worship and follows Islamic teachings, and the Quran & Sunnah.

Responsible : takes responsibility for his actions and fulfills his obligations as a Muslim man.

Exemplary : strives to be a positive role model for others, and follows the way of Rasulullah ﷺ.

Has gheerah : he is not dayooth (cuck), he has protective jealousy over his womenfolk.

I need your help! I need a Turkish name. I believe my future lies in the beautiful country that is Turkey. A blend of Islamic purity, but with enough western influence that I can continue to dress in modest but stylish clothing. While I do wear hijab daily, the need to wear a headscarf isn't enforced. And where the men treat their women like princesses.

Time to plan

Hello,

I am a light skinned, blonde haired guy living in Europe. Unfortunately am unable to grow a full beard. What can I do to look more Arab? At least when I put gel in my hair it looks a bit darker. Besides clothing I would love to have some advice on what hair styles I can adopt and how I can make my physical appearance and face look more Arabic as well

As Salamu Alaykum Akhi 💚

Brother, to conform with our islamic brothers a clean shaved head is often used to remove the obsession of vanity for hair and wear a simple prayer cap. 💚 You need to keep your dress modest brother. Think of the thobe and ensure your awrah is covered at all times. You should do some exercises to build your body as a strong vessel. Remember not to cover your ankles with your trousers. 💚

Convert to the Brotherhood and you will start on the path to Arabisation brother. 💚
