  • Hijab And Pardah By Mothers Of Believers

    Posted by Muhammad Saim Siddiqui on May 19, 2021 at 4:04 am

    I have seen all videos under Response to 23 Questions (Pardah Topic).
    Ghamidi Sahib explained that the verses of Surah Ahzaab were revealed when there was a very difficult scenario.
    Muslims were surrounded by Kuffar. Some tribes within madina revolted, a air of scandals was common in madinah and even our mother was blamed for fornication(I think So, May Allah Forgive me). Now Allah pak revealed the verses as a precautionary measure to protect the family of prophet and prophet himself. After the situation ended, battle of trench was won by Muslims, it is a common scene that those commandments of Surah Ahzaab were no longer needed/required and Muslims can go back to their previous lifestyles.
    According to my research, the Mothers of Believers did not revert back to their normal practises rather they continued to practise the commandements of Surah Ahzaab. Covering themselves, not meeting men openly, observing Hijab(curtain) and everything that was commanded.
    Why is this so? Was there any other verse forbidding the mothers to go back to their previous lifestyle? Did the prophet commanded? Did mothers show that they like commandements and they are going to continue this out of their own will? Is their any different angle to this?
    Please enlighten.

    The Verses in Surah Ahzaab had a specific context for the Wives of the Prophet, His Daughters and the believing women. But in these three categories of women there was an exception. The Wives of the Prophet were forbidden to Marry again after the death of the Prophet. They were declared as Mothers of the Believers. Owning to this Special Status, the Wives of the Prophet were instructed to follow a strict code of ethics which included staying within their homes under normal circumstances except if its an urgent matter. The Other Two Categories which included Prophet’s Daughters and the believing women had no such restriction. and hence under normal circumstances they could go out. Except of course if there is a emergency situation outside involving harassment and rape than they also must follow that strict code of ethics that was given for the Ummahat ul Momineen as guided by Allah in Surah Ahzaab.

    God Knows Best..

    The time you have mentioned that may answer my query, is beyond the scope of the video. Please look into this.
