The Three Veils...
Covering of the Bosoms is a Qur'anic Command...
The Qur'an Reveals:
"And tell the
believing women to lower their gaze and be modest, and to display of their
adornment only that which is apparent, and to draw their Sash clothes [khumur (pl.: s. khimar = Sash cloth)] over their
bosoms..." Surah Nur (24), Verse 31.
Covering of the hair, while praying or prophesying, is a
Biblical Command:
The First Epistle To The CORINTHIANS;
chapter 11, verses 5 and 6.
Covering of the Face is neither a Qur'anic nor a Biblical
Command:
"O
children of Adam! wear your beautiful apparel at every time and place of prayer" - Qur'an 7: 31
Who made our Niqabi Sisters, that go to the Mosques and Eid-gahs for their
Prayers and the Eid Prayers, to cover their beautiful apparels and follow
behind their well dressed brothers and husbands?
None but men of
understanding will receive an admonition...

May Allah Guide Us All to His Eternal
Truth
