As a girl 25 years old, I am slim and tall. But I am very confused regarding my dressing sense. I don't know what to wear. I feel very comfortable in jeans with short kurtas. One of my friend asked me to browse fashion clothes website clip everyday. How can I improve my dressing sense? Do you have any other suggestions?

Salam sister,
may be you can check this one - www.shukr.com

Just out of curiosity, for the sisters who wear make up (hijab or no hijab), do they put make up on after every time they do wudu?

Is it a temptation to even skip wudu and salaah due to not wanting to ruin their make up? A lot of hijabis out there caked in make up looking the same from start of the work day till late.

For me, it seems that the hadeeth talking about being clothing and yet naked, is talking about the clothing in our times (not necessarily warn so much by muslims as the hadeeth doesnt mention atht the women will be muslim). Girls become more and more naked by the day. In the last 100 years we have had the magically shrinking skirt, until now, the skirt has totally disappeared and women wear see through tights with no skirt on, its actually a horrendous fitnah goign to town or uni, I feel sorry for the brothers who cant get married. These women are technically clotehd yet virually naked and I believe its led to an incredibly hormonal nation of men with abnormal levels of testorone as Allah created us to become more hormonal when seeing women to this degree as a women is designed to be covered.

So for me, it seems this is what the hadeeth is talking about, but Allah knows best and its risky to interpret hadeeth into a context of our times as you could be wrong, and of course I dont know teh arabic language to know teh intricacies of the hadeeth, or what the muhadditheen have said, so this is only a thougyht that enters my mind when I read the hadeeth, I dont know if its correct but it seems to match our times exactly and doesnt match times before ours as women never dressed like this histrocially till our times. Wallahu a'lam

There is a greater 'awareness' of the deen than before (well since I was a teen like 20 years ago) and a lot more of the 'mashaAllah, Alhamdulillah' in conversations. BUT there is in some women, a boundary line that they don't want to or don't think about passing. By this I mean influence from peers, culture etc. It's an attitude of 'i'm wearing hijab 'cos your're meant to' - but there's no real analysis of what hijab is about. Hence the half-sleeves, tight tops and skinny jeans, huge humps and now you see fake eyelashes too. Ugh.

Those of us in boring abayas, big plain hijabs are just well you know 'boring'. There are now 'hijab dressers' that charge £15 or more to 'dress' your hijab in a decorative way for weddings and parties. They use double or triple multi coloured scarves and form intricate flowers with them, adding diamonds and jewels to accentuate. You can get some hair accessories that deliberately give volume on your head in order to get that 'hump' look.... If you search on youtube you will find many videos showing you how to wear hijab in innovative ways. It's cool and 'halal' according to these people and young girls are following it thinking it's ok.

I don't know anyone who is 'forced' to wear the hijab. Uh uh. It's actually cool to wear it and some girls actually look better with it on than off i'm afraid.

May Allah protect us and our daughters, sisters etc from this fitnah. Even the black Saudi abayahs come in slimmer styles and tight sleeves....

Allah forgive us all...

1. Either they 'keep' their wudu ALL day

or

2. Don't pray

I can't figure out at all what the ones wearing nail varnish do

There are of course those who re-do their make-up too...
