Why Muslim Women Cover Their Hair

Sorry for the bad English....

i try to answer the question that ask by my non-Muslim friend..
^_^




Some people might have ask...

Why Muslim Ladies has to cover their hair???
Isn't it unfair for them.....
Why they have to wear that in the hot weather??

Actually, In Islam not only women have to cover their part of body...
but, men to have to cover certain part of their body
that is from the belly button to the knee...
in case of women, they have to cover all except their face and palm.


Now, back to why muslim women cover their hair and their body with proper dress...

It is something that is required by Islam,

The main reason for this is to protect the women themselves..
protect their honor and dignity..

WHY?

alright, look at this situation..
if a woman walking pass a man...
and she is wearing a sexy dress...
or just say that she is showing her hair to the man..
isn't the man will be attracted to her...

and, remember...
there is nothing wrong with man attracted to woman and vise versa...
but it would be dangerous if the man had a bad intention toward the woman...

this attraction is not love...
it is lust.... something that is desired but can bring harm..
just imagine what that man will do to her...

he will first try to seduce her...
let say that she is a strong believer,
then she rejected the man...
what might happen,
he might try to get her with any method...
including raping her.....
because his lust has been awaken by the way of her dressing...




let us look at this for better explanation:

If you are a man, wouldn't be tempt to tackle this girl "not just for her beauty"...

now look at this cartoon:


man would be attracted to her... that is nature..
but, noted that... they will love her not by looking at her body...
and... wouldn't she look more noble and pure...



some might argue that the muslim women are being forced to cover their awrah ..
but look at this, human are not perfect..
and they might do something that harm themselves
without they noticed that...

this is something that is done to protect them..
like the government enforced a law to protect the country...
like a parent protecting their children




question that arise is:

Why do nuns wear head cover and cover their bodies but people find it strange for muslim women?

correct me if i write something wrong... :)
