The Obligatory Conditions for an Islamic Hijab – Dr. Saleh as-Saleh
WOMEN BEAUTIFICATION ,
WOMEN DRESS (HIJAAB)
(PART THREE)
(4) HIJAB MUST BE ROOMY, FLOWING AND NOT TIGHT
The Hijab is a safeguard against Fitna. If tight, it will be descriptive of the woman’s body and this violates the purpose of Hijab.
Usaama Bin Zaid ( ﺭﺿﻲ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻋﻨﻪ ) said:
“The Messenger of Allah ( ﺻَﻠَّﻰ ﺍﻟﻠّٰﻪُ ﻋَﻠَﻴْﻪِ ﻭَﺳَﻠَّﻢ) dressed me with a thick Qubtyeeyah (cotton dress from Egypt) which was a gift that he received from Duhia Al-Kalbi. So I gave it to my wife to wear. He ( ﺻَﻠَّﻰ ﺍﻟﻠّٰﻪُ ﻋَﻠَﻴْﻪِ ﻭَﺳَﻠَّﻢ ) said : “What made you not to wear the Qubtyeeyah?” I said: “I dressed my wife with it. ” He ( ﺻَﻠَّﻰ ﺍﻟﻠّٰﻪُ ﻋَﻠَﻴْﻪِ ﻭَﺳَﻠَّﻢ ) said: ” Order her to put an undergarment (or gown) under it, because I am afraid it may describe the size of her bones .(44)
(44) Reported by Ad’Diya’ Al-Maqdissi, Imam Ahmed, At-Tabarani, AlBaihaqi, and Ibn Sa’d. It is also reported that Al-Haithami said: “amongst the chain of narrators is Abdullah Ibn Aqeel whose narrations are good; yet according to some scholars there is Da’eef (weakness) associated with him, and that the rest of narrators are Thuqat (men of confidence regarding reporting). Ad-Dahabi said: ” the level of Abdullah Ibn Aqeel’s narration is not below the rating of “good” (In Meezan AlI’tidal: Measure of Balanced (verifications); Arabic).
(5) THE HIJAB MUST NOT BE PERFUMED WITH INCENSE
The Messenger of Allah ( ﺻَﻠَّﻰ ﺍﻟﻠّٰﻪُ ﻋَﻠَﻴْﻪِ ﻭَﺳَﻠَّﻢ) said:
“Any woman who perfumes herself and passes by some people that they smell her scent, then she is a Zaniyah (prostitute).” (45)
(45) Related by Imam Ahmed, An-Nissa’ee, and Al-Hakim who said: “it has an authentic chain of narration” and Ad-Dahabi agreed.
