The conditions of hijaab:




Most of us Muslimah don't even know their are conditions  to wearing our hijabs.. Insha Allah i will list  the important conditions of wearing the hijab insha Allah sisters And also will show proof from the Quran or from the Hadith. 

First:  The Hijab should cover all the body apart from whatever has been exempted.
Allaah says : “O Prophet! Tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to draw their cloaks (veils) all over their bodies (i.e. screen themselves completely except the eyes or one eye to see the way). That will be better, that they should be known (as free respectable women) so as not to be annoyed. And Allaah is Ever Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.” This aayah clearly states that it is obligatory to cover all of a woman’s beauty and adornments and not to display any part of that before non-mahram men (“strangers”) except for whatever appears unintentionally, in which case there will be no sin on them if they hasten to cover it up.

 Second.  The Hijab should not be an adornment in and of itself.Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
“… and not to show off their adornment…” [al-Noor 24:31]. The general meaning of this phrase includes the outer garment, because if it is decorated it will attract men’s attention to her. This is supported by the aayah in Soorat al-Ahzaab (interpretation of the meaning): This means that  the hijab should not be flashy but simple.

Third: The hijab It should be thick and not transparent or “see-through.(Narrated by Muslim from the report of Abu Hurayrah).Ibn ‘Abd al-Barr said: what the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) meant was women who wear clothes made of light fabric which describes and does not cover. They are clothed in name but naked in reality.because it cannot cover properly otherwise. Transparent or see-through  clothing makes a woman more tempting and beautiful. Concerning this the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “During the last days of my ummah there will be women who are clothed but naked, with something on their heads like the humps of camels. Curse them, for they are cursed.” Another hadeeth adds: “They will not enter Paradise or even smell its fragrance, although its fragrance can be detected from such and such a distance.”To my dear Muslimah please make sure you don't fall into the styling your hijab to a point where everyone  is looking at you .. Keep it simple and modest ladies..
