I gave references from the Quran, and the translations of the most trusted scholars
yet you replied with references from :
1) A scholar with harassment allegations on him.
2) Google images
3) A claim that you live in KSA, and hence your point is justified.
I think further discussion on this is futile
I shall not quote you on this matter again
good day Sir
Who are these most trusted scholars?

People cant make their own version of Islam and Quran interpretations.
Since you do not have basic understanding of Arabic.
Your claims are not clear Sister.
Special Focus on the Hijab:
One of the favorite tricks of the hadith rejectors is to announce that it is not obligatory for the Muslim woman to cover her hair. Surah an-Nur ayah 31 says in part, “Tell the faithful women…to extend their Khumur to cover their bosoms”. The word “khumur” is the plural of “khimar”. According to the hadith rejectors, the meaning of “khimar” is simply “a covering” because the root Khamara means “to cover”. Thus, they say, that the Qur’an here only tells women to extend a covering over their bosoms. They say that the Qur’an does not mention the covering of the head.
Is this true? Because of the importance of hijab, it is worth exploring this issue in depth.
The hijab of the Muslim woman has been set out in two verses of the Qur’an, Surah an-Nur ayah 31 and Surah al-Ahzab ayah 59. The list of commands contained in these verses is as follows:
1) Lower the gaze (24:31)
2) Guard the private parts (24:31)
3) To not display their beauty “except what is apparent of it” (24:31)
4) Extend the khimar to cover the bosom (24:31)
5) To not display their beauty beyond “what is apparent of it” except to the people listed in 24:31
6) To not stamp their feet so as to reveal hidden beauty (24:31)
7) Draw the jilbab close around them when abroad (33:59)
What does “except what is apparent” mean? This is one of the passages in the Qur’an that the Prophet (sAas) needs to explain. And Surah an-Nahl ayah 44 (see above) tells us that the Prophet will explain the Qur’an. The Prophet’s explanation of “what is apparent” is the face and the hands.
Therefore, following what the Prophet (sAas) has explained of the Qur’an, it is very clear. If a woman must conceal all of her beauty except her face and hands, she must necessarily be concealing her hair. Even if “to not display their beauty except what is apparent” were the only text in the verse, according to how the Prophet (sAas) has explained the meaning of the Qur’an, a woman would still have to cover everything but her face and hands.
We can also look at the meaning of the word “khimar”. The word “khimar” comes from the root Khamara, meaning “to cover”. However, the particular form “khimar” may have a more specific meaning. Let’s look at what it is:
1) In the Arabic of the Prophet (sAas), the word “khimar” referred to a headcovering. This can be seen in the hadiths when the Prophet (sAas) wiped his wet hands over his khimar and his socks, from which scholars have derived that it is halal to wipe wet hands over the headcovering and the socks.
2) The authorities on classical Arabic have defined the word “khimar” as a headcovering. For instance, the dictionary Aqrab al-Mawarid defines the word “khimar” as: “All such pieces of cloth which are used to cover the head; It is a piece of cloth which is used by a woman to cover her head”.
The great scholar Imam Abu’l-Fida ibn Kathir defines the word “khimar” in the following words, “Khumur is the plural of khimar which means something that covers, and is what is used to cover the head. This is what is known among the people as a khimar”. A modern scholar, Shaykh Muhammad al-Munajjid says, “Khimar comes from the word khamr, the root meaning of which is to cover. For example, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:
‘Khammiru aaniyatakum (cover your vessels).’ Everything that covers something else is called its khimar. But in common usage khimar has come to be used as a name for the garment with which a woman covers her head; in some cases this does not go against the linguistic meaning of khimar. Some of the fuqaha have defined it as that which covers the head, the temples and the neck. The difference between the hijab and the khimar is that the hijab is something which covers all of a woman’s body, whilst the khimar in general is something with which a woman covers her head.
3) Imam Abu Abdullah Qurtubi described the historical circumstances relating to the wearing of the khimar in pre-Islamic Arabia as follows, “Women in those days used to cover their heads with the khimar, throwing its ends upon their backs. This left the neck and the upper part of the chest bare, along with the ears, in the manner of the Christians. Then Allah commanded them to cover those parts with the khimar”. Similarly, Imam Abu’l-Fida ibn Kathir reports, “‘Draw their khumur to cover their bosoms’ means that they should wear the khimar in such a way that they cover their chests so that they will be different from the women of the jahiliyyah (before the coming of Islam) who did not do that but would pass in front of men with their chests uncovered and with their necks, forelocks, hair and earrings uncovered”. Both of these descriptions provide clear, explicit, specific explanations of what “extend the khimar to cover their bosoms” means.
4) The scholars have agreed unanimously that the khimar is a headcovering
Please do not try to interpret the Qur’an by just looking up in some dictionary what the meaning of the root KHAMARA means. Each of the forms derived from this root may have a specific meaning. In order to interpret the Qur’an properly you need to know what the specific meaning of the particular form “khimar” was in the Arabic of the Prophet (sAas). According to the common usage recorded from that time (in the hadiths), to dictionaries that have preserved the classical Arabic, and to the reports of the actual practice of women of that time, the khimar is a headcovering. Can you present any hadiths or other Arabic writing of the time of the Prophet (sAas) that use the word “khimar” to mean a shirt or any type of covering other than a headcovering? Can you present entries from dictionaries of classical Arabic that fail to give headcovering as a definition of “khimar”? Can you present reports of the dress of the pre-Islamic Arab women that apply the word “khimar” to mean something other than a headcovering? Can you present opinions of the ulama that the khimar is something other than a headcovering? If not, you have not refuted any of the evidence presented here. The examples I have given above are the accepted ways of determining what the meaning of the Qur’an is.
Now, if I told you “extend your hat to cover your ears” you would know automatically that the hat is a headcovering because that is what the word “hat” means in English, and you would understand automatically that the hat is to remain on the head while being extended down to cover the ears. Likewise the Arabs, when they were told “extend your khimar to cover your bosom”, knew automatically that the khimar was a headcovering because that is what the word “khimar” means in Arabic, and they understood automatically that the khimar was to remain on the head while being extended to cover the bosom.
There can be no doubt about it; the meaning of the Arabic word “khimar” is headcovering. The Qur’an doesn’t mention the word “head” separately because there is no need to, any more than English-speakers need to be told that a hat is worn on the head.
So let’s have a third go at that list of commands for hijab:
1) Lower the gaze (24:31)
2) Guard the private parts (24:31)
3) To not display their beauty except their faces and hands (24:31)
4) Extend the headcovering to cover the bosom (24:31)
5) To not display the beauty beyond the face and hands except to the people listed in 24:31
6) To not stamp the feet so as to reveal hidden beauty (24:31)
7) Draw the jilbab close around them when abroad (33:59)
From this we can see that the Muslim woman has been given two directives in regard to covering the hair. The first directive is that the hair, along with the rest of the body except the face and the hands, must be concealed except before the people listed in 24:31. The second directive is that the hair should specifically be covered by the khimar, which must also extend to cover the neck and upper chest.
The directives of the Qur’an and Sunnah are quite clear and they quite clearly direct women to wear headscarves and to cover all of their bodies except the face and hands. Along with the jilbab (outer garment) and the modest conduct of lowering the gaze, guarding the private parts, and not stamping the feet, this is Hijab.
This is what Allah SWT and His Messenger have decided in this matter.
“It is not for a believing man or a believing woman to say anything further or to disobey” (Qur’an 33:36).
“He who obeys Allah and His Messenger has already achieved a splendid triumph.” Suratul Ahzaab 33:71
