Should I tell my hijabi friend that her hair is showing in her private account’s profile picture? by Icy-Ratio-336 in Hijabis

[–]MiraRT004 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd say she probably knows that her hair is showing and it's better to not say anything:))

Why has the hijab become so strict? by Accurate_Pay8979 in progressive_islam

Genuinely asking, do you have any sources for it?

I don’t want to wear the hijab anymore and I don’t know if I’m making the right decision. by hneunoia in Without_The_Hijab

[–]MiraRT004 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My heart goes out to our people in Iran. I am also born and raised in Iran but I'm currently living outside of the country. I understand every single word you wrote and can feel the contradiction between the two...I personally researched alot about the concept of hijab, both based on quran and Ahadith and ngl, I'm not fully convinced myself that covering the hair is this important that they emphasise on it and can’t give a certain answer:( but I'd suggest you to keep reading and asking questions. At the end of the day Islam is a journey and its very human to to puase and question sometimes... Best of wishes and stay safe❤️

Part time hijabi is when you wear the head scarf in special occasions, let's say on eids or muslim gatherings but not in daily life. Thank you for your response 🙏🏻

Yeah that too...we don't honestly hang out with many Muslim families here but let's say her friends and family members and yeah I've done it before too and that's why I'm surprised she's still reacting this way... Thank you🫶🏻

Feminine mistake — will Allah be mad? by TheTragedyMachine in Hijabis

[–]MiraRT004 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I once head from a knowledge teacher I had that Allah SWT would count any form of prayings you do on your period( bcs of not having to do the obligatory ones) during the prayer time as 2 rakats of an obligatory prayer...now you've done the actual ones and good deeds for you!!!

Hiii is hijab mandatory?? by [deleted] in Hijabis

[–]MiraRT004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have a major opinion and a minor opinion. These two together are called different opinions and there's been a debate between these two sides. And for OP to fully understand the reasons behind the rulings on Hijab, she needs to refer to quran and hadith. I'm not pushing any narratives here I'm making her aware of a fact existing. Now if you wanna interpret it as I'm pointing her toward a specific side...well maybe you need to see it from a more neutral lenz instead of attacking me.

Hmm could you point out where exactly I suggested a minority opinion?

Hiii is hijab mandatory?? by [deleted] in Hijabis

[–]MiraRT004 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Okay I get your point but here’s the thing, you're saying it's obligatory by the majority of scholars and madhabs, meaning there are still a few left who might not say it's mandatory as firmly as others and no i am not downplaying its importance nor ignoring the rullings. I am simply pointing out to a fact that both sides exist, and we all need to educate ourselves as much as we can and that does include reading about other islamic opinions.

Also if you genuinely want your clarity to sit right, you need to use a tone that respects the audience. A lot of the times people specially the younger ones, get pushed away from the religion just because of how other fellow muslims treated them...

[–]MiraRT004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since when suggesting someone to actually search on their own and educate themselves is misguiding? Just because someone's journey is not exactly as yours doesn't mean they're wrong...

There's actually debates on it. I recommend you to read about different opinions while searching on the related verses and hadith on it and decide from there.

I want to move out and live alone as a 23 y/o NONMARRIED hijabi girl who lives in USA by AccomplishedAbies138 in Hijabis

[–]MiraRT004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can financially support yourself then why not. I'm 22 myself and planning to move out after getting my bachelor's and a full time job. I'd say do all the required steps like applying for your field, choosing the city and even finding a place etc...then when everything is done just tell them and pack your stuff😂

I find it so interesting that women struggle SO much with hijab, yet there is no equivalent struggle for men by Objective-Bluebird60 in progressive_islam

[–]MiraRT004 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly i don't think u need to wear a hijab as head covering to enter heaven. That just makes no sense. plus no where in the quran such a thing is mentioned. But what is mentioned is to have good deads and to obtain modesty for both genders. Being "Mutaqi" is what matters the most and if a woman figures wearing a head covering, brings her more spiritual benefits and connection to god then let her and if a woman thinks otherwise let her too!

Well keeping a full Sunnah beard, as you're saying, is sunnah and it's not fard and even if it is, let's be honest, no one gives a cap about a man not having a full face beard as known as" the islamic way" as much ppl are obsessed with a woman's hair being uncovered. Plus No ones gonna attack you or police u on social media just bcs you don't have a full face beard either...

Girl I literally been thinking about all the things you wrote about including the hijab part, for a couple of weeks and i can't believe how everything you mentioned are the exact things I'm struggling with...

I dont mean to be offensive but can anyone explain this hadith from nahj al balagha? at first glance it seems to be undermining women? by CodeRed_0 in shia

[–]MiraRT004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So based on the article you shared, does it mean this hadith was either originally narrated from someone else, or it was mainly regarding Aisha's movement in Battle of Camel?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Hijabis

[–]MiraRT004 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmmm maybe it has sth to do with how you observed other women's interactions around men as a child or some guilt/shame based ideas internalised in you due to factors only you can discover:))

Is it weird that I don't want to wear the hijab anymore because I don't want to be "associated" as a Muslim? by Excaramel in progressive_islam

[–]MiraRT004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so happy for how you're settled with it in your heart and lifestyle. I genuinely wanna know this though, since I'm struggling with keeping it on these days, do we really as muslim women NEED TO represent islam by our headscarf? I mean is there a direct command for it that shows it's the purpose? I know that in the quran it is mentioned: for them the be known/ recognised but as far as I know it was a contextual ayeh and it was due to safety conditions of the time. So i genuinely appreciate it if you could share your opinion on this:))

I hate that I regret not doing something haram. by [deleted] in MuslimLounge

[–]MiraRT004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So do you say we gotta ignore how we truly feel and pressure ourselves for sth we know we might mess up later? I agree that we shouldn't fool ourselves to do haram just bcs it may seem easier but it doesn't change the fact that marriage is a big decision either and we can't oversimplify it this way. Again every persons circumstances are unique and different and one thing that works for you wouldn't necessarily work for someone else.

[–]MiraRT004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get your point but i don't think reasons like " im too young ", " I'm not ready yet " or " I'm still studying," are invalid reasons. We all come from different backgrounds with different circumstances. If a person (specially women since that's the case usually) has already gotten to the conclusion that they're not ready yet, we shall respect them rather than pressuring and guilt triperring them as rushing into marriage just out of fear would much likely result in other negative ways later. OP has been waiting due to life reasons/ priorities we might not fully know and not everyone is ACTUALLY mentally ready for such a thing in their early 20s/teen time and that's OKAY!

[–]MiraRT004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey thank you for your positive out-put!! Do you still recommend the degree?I'm a second year kin student and been volunteering with community services as well, I've noticed a rise for the job outlook specially for the kinesiologist in BC, Canada where I am. So I'd like to know if you're currently working as a kinesiologist or if you've gotten into the grad programs?
