		<description>Man.. You crushed me. Well, what I wrote anyway. 

I knew the moment I clicked submit that it wasn&#039;t a good literature, but hey, I tried. I&#039;m not good at these things.

I guess, to wholly understand niqaab, you have to climb that ladder of faith. Yes, it&#039;s not a good answer to this and it&#039;s a bit of an annoying thing to say, I know. I heard it many times before I actually understood it. It&#039;s just what each individual experiences. I don&#039;t think I can ever tell someone why I wear niqaab but if you hung around a true niqaabi for a while, you&#039;d start understanding. Obviously, if you get influenced easily then that wouldn&#039;t be the real answer, but otherwise, overtime, you&#039;d understand.

Understanding another person&#039;s feelings is never easy..

As to your comments crushing mine, the answers are all answered in Islam, but it would be very time consuming for me to write up since I&#039;m not very good at it.

I&#039;d just like to add, why do you think me, and other fellow niqaabi&#039;s, would choose to wear something like this? No, we&#039;re not oppressed, and no, we have no psychological problems. Doesn&#039;t that give you a little inkling that we might have a real motive?</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;If you look around at society, you see people, male and female, trying to create a look that is somewhat linked to the ‘today’ look.&lt;/i&gt;

That is what you think about it. I just don&#039;t dress for the &quot;today&quot; look, I wear what I like. I really don&#039;t like fashion.

&lt;i&gt;Someone modest.&lt;/i&gt;

So to be modest, do you really want me to believe that you have to be dressed with a black sheet all over you? Come on, that&#039;s not true!! :lol:

&lt;i&gt;She wishes to preserve her beauty only for the one it is meant for, her husband.&lt;/i&gt;

If God would have made us to be covered, he would have designed us to be covered. Niqab and other Islamic robes were designed to be worn in the desert, where very high temperatures by day, very low temperatures by night and above all, desert storms, made it necessary. That about &quot;&lt;i&gt;only be seen by the husband&lt;/i&gt;&quot; is nonsense, because then, why is the husband not covered? His beauty was not designed to be seen only by his wife/s???

&lt;i&gt;That way, she will hopefully not become attracted or be attractive.&lt;/i&gt;

So then, the husband can attract other women?? He is not covered... but they can see him :P</description>

		<description>&quot;Deal with my brain, not my body!&quot;

That statement was sent to me in an email and it made me actually think about it. If you look around at society, you see people, male and female, trying to create a look that is somewhat linked to the &#039;today&#039; look. Different countries have different looks. There&#039;s the teens in the world dressing up to look like part of the society. It&#039;s an unconscious process. You don&#039;t even realise you&#039;re being pulled into a hidden law of having to look in an acceptable way. 
Along come a woman dressed from head to toe. Society thinks she&#039;s oppressed because they believe to be free is to be able to dress in what they want. If a niqaabi decides to want to dress from head to toe, how can she be oppressed? She chose herself didn&#039;t she? I did.
Society thinks they are free, they dress following the fashion trends, make themselves as beautified as possible. They don&#039;t want to look ugly or different. The niqaabi wishes to look plain, so her views are taken however she looks. She wishes to preserve her beauty only for the one it is meant for, her husband. That way, she will hopefully not become attracted or be attractive.

She feels free from the nonsense of having to look good. Feels free from people looking and judging from appearances. Now they can either see her as a stranger and get to know her ideas rather than her looks, or feel sorry for her.. But she, ahhh, she feels free and peaceful, safe from the indignity of being seen as an object, someone with self-respect. Someone modest.</description>

		<description>He, you&#039;re wrong: I surely do not wear a bikini to please others (in case I would wear it: I prefer swimming-suit), just because it&#039;s healthy to receive the sun in your skin in a moderate fashion.
&lt;i&gt;As for your Death from vitamin D statment. Please post a link to the article showing that a woman wearing niqab has died from this.&lt;/i&gt;
I don&#039;t need any article: I am a woman with short vitamin D and calcium (calcium needs vitamin D to get to the bones). Guess what was the first advice my doctor gave me: sunbathe!!
&lt;i&gt;women who walk around in the streets naked.&lt;/i&gt; I surely don&#039;t walk around any street naked (without clothes, entirely nude). But I don&#039;t take my bed-clothes on me when I am going out.
&lt;i&gt;Keep your bikinis and your booty shorts. We love our niqabs.&lt;/i&gt;
You know what? That would be fabulous if you didn&#039;t want to impose your Islamic veils on people from another religions:
http://infidelsarecool.com/2008/04/25/indonesia-sharia-law-forcing-non-muslims-to-wear-hijab/
So, if in Islamic countries non-Islamic people should wear Islamic veil, why are you allowed to wear it on Western countries? Specially considering it&#039;s just a symbol of the consideration of men as sexual beasts who can&#039;t help but raping unveiled women.</description>
