Safeguarding the Muslim Women

Assalamualaikum,

It has been so long since my last post. Not is that I've been very busy, but lazy. :)

The new layout for blogger did take me sometimes to figure out where the create new post button, luckily, I found it and I knew it's a sign for me to post something here. I don't know if I still have my readers out there.

It always come to conclusion that I need to log out whenever ideas popped into my head. It was just the lazy bugs keep bugging me from everywhere. Hehe.

Well, I always have this in mind, since I turn 30 this year. Happy belated birthday to myself! The thing that've been thinking of is, I need a "CHANGE". Yeah, I need a good start to "CHANGE" anyway. It has been 30 years that I cherished every secon of it even I've forgotten all the memories when I was little kid. I really wish I can still remember them. Now, I really feel that I am an adult! Ha Ha.All this while I kept thinking that I am in my early 20s., and with that in mind, I think, it made me look younger than my real age or status as  a mother of 2, for those who met me for the first time. And today, I think, I do look like my real age, I guess. I don't know.

The "CHANGE" that I mean here is a determination in becoming good servant to Allah the Al-mighty. That would be my focus from now on. I take it slowly and easy as I don't want it to be so jumpstart and then, spoilt. I can't remember very well how it seeps into me but I feel really good and ready about it. First thing that become my rule, is the "AURAT" or private part.

When first listened to the video from Ustaz Don via facebook, I was touched and reverted, on how I dressed up everyday. I know I've wearing hijab and decent attire before but when I listened to that video, there's still lacking. So, actually I reverted to the way I was before when I was so young. Sometimes, when your husband is all "OK" to what your dressed up, you tend to get carried away with it, plus, today, hijab has become a big fashion, a bit away from it original purpose, to cover your "AURAT". I really hope, my determination will become a continuos until my last breath. Ameen.

So sisters, lets put Allah first before fashion. Put on proper hijab and dress, you will feel very safe and secure. As to cover your "AURAT" is an order from Allah, written in Quran, verse 31, Surah An-Nur.

"And tell the believing women to reduce [some] of their vision and guard their private parts and not expose their adornment except that which [necessarily] appears thereof and to wrap [a portion of] their headcovers over their chests and not expose their adornment except to their husbands, their fathers, their husbands' fathers, their sons, their husbands' sons, their brothers, their brothers' sons, their sisters' sons, their women, that which their right hands possess, or those male attendants having no physical desire, or children who are not yet aware of the private aspects of women. And let them not stamp their feet to make known what they conceal of their adornment. And turn to Allah in repentance, all of you, O believers, that you might succeed."
