Modesty and Decency

Pearl of Wisdom

'No sooner do two men who forsake each other part than one of them becomes deserving of disassociation [by Allah] and curse, and both of them may become deserving of it'. Mu'attab said to him, may Allah sacrifice me for your sake, this is for the one who wronged, but what about the one who was wronged?' He said, 'Because he does not call his brother to reconciliation and does not forgive him for what he said. I heard my father say, 'When two people dispute with each other and one overcomes the other, the one who has been wronged should return to his friend and says to him ?O brother I am the one at fault', to cut the desertion between them, for Allah Almighty is a Desertion Just Judge, and will take the right of the wronged one from the wronger.'

Imam Ja'far ibn Muhammad al-Sadiq [as]

Ibid. v. 2, p. 344, no. 1

Modesty and Decency

HOLY QUR'AN PROCLAIMS: O Prophet! Tell thy wives and daughters, and the believing women, that they should cast their outer garments over their persons (when abroad): that is most convenient, that they should be known (as such) and not molested. And Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. ( Soorah-e-Ahzaab, verse 59)

And say to the believing women that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty; that they should not display their beauty and ornaments except what (must ordinarily) appear thereof; that they should draw their veils over their bosoms and not display their beauty except to their husbands, their fathers, their husband's fathers, their sons, their husbands' sons, their brothers or their brothers' sons, or their sisters' sons, or their women, or the slaves whom their right hands possess, or male servants free of physical needs, or small children who have no sense of the shame of sex; and that they should not strike their feet in order to draw attention to their hidden ornaments. And O ye Believers! turn ye all together towards Allah, that ye may attain Bliss. ( Soorah-e-Noor, verse 31)

Islam does not allow free and unrestricted intermingling of the sexes. The rule of modesty applies to men as well as women.

CORRUPT VS PURE: Women impure are for men impure, and men impure for women impure and women of purity are for men of purity, and men of purity are for women of purity: these are not affected by what people say: for them there is forgiveness, and a provision honorable. (Holy Quran 24:26)
