Taliban announce women must cover faces in public, say burqa is best

[Hydration]

First of all, I have very little religious knowledge, so this is mostly my impression.

In Muslim cultures, there are two aspects: what is required (farz) and what is recommended/suggested/expected (sunnah).

The first part (required) comes from what is explicitly written in the Quran because the Quran is considered the word of God. The second part (recommended) usually involves emulating the customs and rituals of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), his family and his companions. These are obviously Arabic customs and some of them even predate Islam. They were just part of contemporary Arabic culture during the Prophet's (PBUH) lifetime.

On the required part, Islam requires both men and women to dress modestly and to avoid sexualized display. I don't know if there are any specific dress codes in the Quran.

The dress codes, and the beard for men, is mostly sunnah, as far as I know. Over the years, customs have a habit of becoming an essential part of any culture. This is true around the world, not just Muslims.

Someone else can correct if I am wrong.

Thanks.

In Urdu language of Pakistan, we have both 'd' and 'z' sound. Many Arabic words containing 'd' are pronounced with 'z' in Urdu.

For example, we say Ramzaan instead of Ramadaan,

And how long open t-shirts and shorts have been in "your culture" ?

Since thousands of years.

We always loved to show off and wear rather short clothes.



Over here seeing a naked women is nothing special. I think covering women up creates far more pressure on them and triggers more sexual related crimes.

So the Americans who wear the t-shirt and baseball cap are essentially wearing Greek clothes ?

Its their right and they know how their society works. If so called modern western societies can enforce a dress code in public then so can others.

Its their right to take away other people's rights? What kind of retard backward logic is this. I hope to god you are not daring to write this down whilst living in a Western country yourself.

Then why call Pakistan "Islamic Republic". Iran also makes people wear dupatta at minimum.



Most Pashtuns love Taliban. The rest of the places in Afg aren't that hardcore.

Come on dupatta?
Will today never heard of it had to search it in Google in order to understand what you mean

Greece is the foundation of western culture. Almost evrything you consider as west is based on Greece.


As i said, there is nothing wrong with shirts and shorts. I fly 1st class in November, guess what i will wear? A t shirt. ^^

Yes but evryone should decide what he or she wants to wear.


When im in very strong sun environment i avoid the sun when its strongest and use sun blocker. Its important to have much air movement on skin too cool

Then why don't you a Greek teach Americans and the rest of the West to bring democracy in their countries ?

No. Egypt had no sience based on logic. It was myth bounded with math. It was very effective but Greece science was based on logic.


Keep in mind the most famous greek scientists like Aristoteles ect lived before we took Egypt.

You are again being stubborn unnecessarily.
