Do the Modern Muslim Ladies Still Cover Their Face & Body?

In some country there are still Muslim ladies covered their face and body. Basically in Malaysia, majority of Muslim ladies just covered their hair and body excluding face. My Muslim teacher said, A women can covered their face due to certain reasons, whether her face extremely beautiful that can cause harm to her or her face is extremely ugly that also can cause harm to her. If the Muslim Ladies are not in these two categories, there is no need to covered their hair. Just covered their hair and wear the appropriate clothes.

Dear friend, My friends too use most of dress that others religions use. Moreover I could see if they are going for a particular religious functions they keep that dress code well. May be it would be part of the changes int he society. As we could see there are lots of superstitions which were take off as time changed.

Yes they are muslims, I've seen them!!!!! =))

Well Guyz i am a kind of Strict Muslim, And i Belong From Pakistan... U have heared alot of Muslim Concepts, but that where not the Koran Concepts, its that muslim People concepts..Now let me make it clear to u..

Ha ha, nice topic, if you ever come to Malaysia, you will see some, or most of the muslims do not cover their faces, just the hair. Even some doesn't even cover the hair. Well, they are still muslim.

although i am not muslim, i think that the women that do still wear their coverings represent a beautiful painting of modesty. it is so beautiful...:)

hi,nece discussion...to be frank any systems or customs are should be our convenience sake also...not blindly based on the age old people what they preach... the days are becoming change day by day..needs and priorities are changing fast.At this time that is foolish to follow some unwanted/inconvenient practices.

yeah, nowadays also in my engineering college there are some muslim girls still they are daily wearing the burka. That is their tradition.

I live in Florida and I have not seen a woman wear a burka here. However I do know I see them wearing their national dress and hair covered. I respect anyone carrying on their culture and customs. I choose to eagerly learn from different cultures and embrace what I gain from them. Even when traveling, I respect what the women wear. After all when we go to other countries I don't see to many US changing their habits for that country. And some people travel to casual to me especially when you see some as they get on to cruise ships, planes, etc. I have always tried to look nice wherever I am going. In the same breath I think we should embrace and respect those that come to visit and wear their national dress. Someone said above "get with the times" I would never being as moderized as we are supposed to be, think of telling someone what to wear, although I sure hate seeing a boys or young man's pants hanging below his behind (with a belt!) and showing his whole boxers. I just don't get that. unfortunately I have no respect for them walking around like that.

Hi, Actually, a Muslim should cover certain areas or part of her/his bodies. Not all of them. In other words, they should cover their "Aurat". Muslim ladies' Aurat include all parts of body except her face and her both palms. Muslim women wear burqa? Well, it's a tradition. It's a part of cultural stuffs in our life that cannot be changed even with a great modernization. So, just be it. We must respect others' tradition if we want them to respect ours.

yes.. they are still muslim.. but then they are considered more modern in dressing and maybe talking. We can see there are quite a lot of them in our country. and actually they do not need to cover their face but only their hair right? Cause they considered hair as very important part for girls and also women..
