>The pea is a splendid plant. It proudly displays its strong green Hijab. It
>protects it from the hot and cold weather and guards it from insects. Allah
>has
>blessed the pea with a special Hijab, because without it, the seeds would
>scatter, dry up and die.
>
>
>
>The orange keeps itself within its shiny orange Hijab to protect its delicious
>fruit. Otherwise it loses its taste too.
>
>
>
>So are the banana, the coconut and the pomegranate. Each one has an elegant
>and
>unique Hijab, which protects it from disease and destruction.
>
>
>
>The jewel of the sea, the pearl, has been given a very tough and rugged Hijab
>-
>oyster shell. It protects it from sea animals and keeps it sparkling and
>shining
>inside.
>
>However, the most beloved of Allah in all His creation is the Muslim girl who
>wears the Hijab. She knows it is a gift from Allah. It protects her from harm,
>injury and mischief. She wears it knowing it gives her dignity, beauty and
>respect. So precious she can be that she hides herself beneath her Hijab.
>
>Do you wear a Hijab? Give it a try today
>
>"And say to the faithful women to lower their gazes, and to guard their
>private
>parts, and not to display their beauty except what is apparent of it, and to
>extend their headcoverings (khimars) to cover their bosoms (jaybs), and not to
>display their beauty except to their husbands, or their fathers, or their
>husband's fathers, or their sons, or their husband's sons, or their brothers,
>or
>their brothers' sons, or their sisters' sons, or their womenfolk, or what
>their
>right hands rule (slaves), or the followers from the men who do not feel
>sexual
>desire, or the small children to whom the nakedness of women is not apparent,
>and not to strike their feet (on the ground) so as to make known what they
>hide
>of their adornments. And turn in repentance to Allah together, O you the
>faithful, in order that you are successful" (Al Quran An-Nur:31)
>
>"O Prophet! Say to your wives and your daughters and the women of the faithful
>to draw their outergarments (jilbabs) close around themselves; that is better
>that they will be recognized and not annoyed. And God is ever Forgiving,
>Gentle." (Al Quran Al-Ahzab:59)
