Do you think wearing
hijab is old-fashioned?
 No,
it should not be counted has fashion. It is related to Islam
and Islamic values and no one is wearing that for fashion.
Salma
Alili, Dubai
Wearing
a hijab is not for fashion but is a requirement of Islam so
that women are protected and honoured when they step out of
their homes...and I can speak from personal experience that
even though I live in USA, Alhamdulillah I have always been
honored and respected for covering my face as well as my body
and not once have been made fun of... instead American people
have come up to me and really appreciated the fact that I am
covered. May Allah show us all the right path and the ability
to follow it.

Absolutely
not! On the contrary, our eastern fashion industry is so much
advanced today, that even if today's young girls think and
believe in that it's old-fashioned, I am sure they can find
100s of choices & varieties in shellas (veils), whether it
be plain or with embroidery...simple or heavy....which can be
wore during all occasions.
Mixing
up the culture a bit with the fashion is acceptable rather
than avoiding it which can lead us to a disagreement to what
our religion tells us to do. At last but not least, I'd like
to put a remark, Ramadan is not the only month where one
should be alert, it's the whole life that counts till the
death....and God bless us all.

No...this
brings out the beauty in a women. It really highlights the
face and makes a women all the more attractive.
Aashiq,
Dubai
Well,
first question that comes to my mind is that is it really
counted in a fashion category. It is a must for women and
it’s an order of Allah which is to be obeyed not to make us
feel bad but to give us a sense of protection.

No,
personally speaking, hidden women looks prettier. When Islam
says something it is for a reason. Yes, there are different
type of hijabs. I am sure you don’t mean shuttle cock kind
of hijab. Women should be moderately covered to leave female
attraction in her. When women is exposed then she looses her
attraction.
Secondly,
women means hidden treasure, where you find peace,
tranquility, love, emotions, delicate and moreover when women
is educated then she is the best creation of GOD. Think about
it. A flower with great smell.

In
my opinion people who thinks that Hijab is old-fashioned are
mentally sick. Hijab is not a fashion. It’s really a beauty
of women.
I
think women who are without hijab have lost their beauty and
looks ugly. I think modern people are those people who have
modern mind. Don’t think that by wearing short dresses we
have become modern.
Actually
we should have modern thinking that reflects good moral
values.

Yes...it
is high time people should stop wearing.

It's
not a fashion. It's faith. So your question is meaningless and
utter nonsense.

Not
at all. It is religion. And religion can never become old
fashion. Besides it is wrong to mix religion with fashion. If
a woman wears a hijab, she is respected.
And
that is what we all seek - to be respected. Being fashionable
will not get you anything, except being a product for the
society; giving them something to admire and talk about.
A
woman, UAE
Hijab
has nothing to do with Islam. It is just the way some Arab
women dress up. Quran does not say to cover the face.
If
it was so necessary to cover the face then at the time of Hajj
it should have been must for women to wear hijab.
In
my humble opinion to cover up modestly is more advisable than
covering the face and let alone hair. Some ladies are more
worried to cover their hair than covering their body parts. I
have seen some Muslim ladies who do cover their hair but show
their legs.
Prof
Dr Khalid R Sager, Sydney
Wearing
the hijab is not old-fashioned. In fact, it’s a must for
women. It’s a protection and a shield for women.
Zahida,
Dubai
This
is just a rubbish question. Wearing hijab is not a fashion. It
is in Islam. It has the same importance as what cross has for
Christians, turban for Sikh. Hence I request every one not to
consider hijab as a fashion.
I
also request every country who oppose hijab to respect the
religious sentiment of others as they want that their religion
should be respected. So please correct it wearing hijab is not
a fashion.
Khaliqur
Rahman, India
Not
at all. It is a custom and customs are never in or out of
fashion
Shagufta
Usman, Dubai
No,
hijab is not meant for fashion.
Amaan,
Sharjah
No,
not at all. It’s only a mark of respect.
Hathika,
Dubai
No,
it keeps up the ethnic and pride of the country.
Saniyah
Hassan, Sharjah
In
fact, now a days wearing hijab has become a fashion as you see
markets flooded with variety and designer wear hijabs.
Anees,
Dubai
Now
a days wearing hijab has become fashionable. I tend to see
style in hijabs woman wear and also it serves as an identity
of one’s religion. But the purpose of covering ones hair is
not served because always you can see a stylish curl of hair
or something peeping out of hijab.
So
it is not the old fashioned type. Trying to cover religious
requirement as well get along with the fashion.
Woman are innovators when it comes to style.
Ahsan,
Abu Dhabi
How
could wearing hijab be old-fashioned? It’s not fashion in
the first place!
Fatoom
G, Ajman
Asghar
from US, Aleen from London, Azima Pathan and Husna from Mumbai
and Ali from Canada are also of the opinion that that wearing
hijab is not old-fashioned.
