Oh My God! How come such learned scholars utter such meaningless statements. Community should watch out for the commonsense and IQ level for those who become clerics otherwise people will get to see more such meaningless quests.

Reading this funny piece of news, I think the opposite is happening. The more you hide something, the more it becomes (sexually) appealing. But the more you show it and we (I am a male enjoy seeing it (every day! For example working for a beautiful female boss) the more it becomes “normal life” and your brain can easily concentrate on something else. What is wrong in the pleasure to watch beauty, i.e. the creation of Allah? Even the most beautiful “things” become “common” after some time: we become used to them.

It’s amazing that these men blame the women for the men’s lack of control.

How about cut off your penis?
Then you won’t care what women look like.
Not THAT would show God some dedication.

So, you’re supposed to have eyepatches like pirates now? Harrr…
I think a far better solution to the whole sexual attraction thing would be to equip every adult female with a pistol and cutlass (parrot on the shoulder optional), and have mandatory classes in using them. Nothing says gender equality like a sword in the ribs, Matey!

Well, I just happened to come across this website, and I think that this is completely ridiculous, haha. As Moodz above me have said, women could do their part by covering themselves appropriately. If there are still guys who are tempted, well, then they should do their part by watching over their urges.

As for the ‘walking tent’, I don’t think the Qur’an specifically stated it to be designed like that (just which parts to be covered, I think?). (CMIIW) But clothes in where Islam originated, around Arab, clothes were already designed to cover a lot of space and be baggy to tackle the hot climate.

When/where did the hijab originate? Was the ‘tent’ outfit described in the Qur’an or the hadiths specifically or has it developed over time?
