Dear,
This I THINK was on the issue of VEIL only and not for so much. Further, I mentioned that it is my view. So it must not cause tension to you. However, my conclusion is based on the study of all reliable AHADEES and HOLY QURAN. I have discussed this issue with so many Ulema and they have principally agreed to it.
VEIL is not prohibited. If some one wishes to have it, it is gud for her. But it is not a compuslion. Had it been a compulsion, it would have been made a part of EHRAAM specified for the women during the performance of HAJJ. Now one cannot say that this relaxation has been given due to so and so reasons at the time of HAJJ. Islam do not allow relaxations where it lays down strict principles.
Further, such sort of exclaimations (regarding relaxation during HAJJ, as some people say) are just like the case where so many relaxations are offered by other religions at their gatherings which we strongly reject and criticise. You can search for KHUMB festival of Hindus and you will find certain relaxations. (Sorry from Hindu members, this is just to explain my view point and not to hurt any Hindu members here).
If you see the dress of muslim females during HAJJ, you will find it a very respectful dress and there exists no veil being the part of this dress.
No HADEES can be accepted which collides with the requirements and principles laid down by HOLY QURAN. I have read SAHI BUKHARI and other AHADEES books, and you may also have read them. If so, then you must know that Imam Bukhari Rehamtaullah knew almost 300,000 AHADEES from which he concluded only 8,000 plus to be reliable enough for keeping record in Bukhari Shareef. Further, as per his statement the AHADESS on which he had a FIRM belief were very few.
I dont quote you to study SOORAH-e-NOOR becoz I hope you must have read it. I dont find anywhere any mention of VEIL clearly in HOLY QURAN. Any requirement which has not been clearly asked for in HOLY QURAN should be searched from other sources but the issues which have been discussed in HOLY QURAN with clarity and where during such discussion no specific orders of GOD have been stipulated for MOMENEEN as I say about VEIL, and where such issues are also evidenced by some other facts and practices, as I pointed out about HAJJ, then the compulsion does not arise for anything that is not required by HOLY BOOK specifically and that is not seen in practice.
Again this is my view. If your family and friends and other people wish to find it as compulsion I have no objection at all. But in my view it is not a compulsion.
Since there is no restriction or compulsion in beliefs as per ISLAM, (u must read AYAAT-e-MUBARIKA after AYET-ul-KURSI to find out), you must not be offencive with me or anybody else on religious issues. I always quote that it is my view and ISLAM allows me fully to have my own views based upon my own research and belief. Islam and HOLY QURAN encourage everyone to institute a research to uncover the realities. You can find so many such HOLY VERSES.
This is the main difference between Bible followers and Quran followers. Bible lays down rules and asks to follow strictly and not to search. Quran lays down the rules and asks to follow and also to search. Again and again Quran mentions to search and find out and states that there are so many hints for the wise people.
Besides it Holy Quran also mentions that there is no compulsion on beliefs. No legal requirement stipulates us to hear only the views of MAULVIES or rigid guys like you. I dont have to get permission of rigid knowledgless people and MAULVIES (who are not AALIMS), who dont have much importance for me, for establishing my views.
Yes I dont ask anybody else to follow my views if these are not correct as per their perception.
You are not the answerable on my deeds and belief. You dont have to lay down in my grave. Mind it. Otherwise u r not the alone who can issue FATAWA against people with limited tiny mind and knowledge. Try to correct your faith if u are interested in doing so (becoz it does not hurt me whether or not u do so) and dont mess up the things.
Best regards,
