Summer in your Hijab

Showkat —

Summer in your Hijab


You think you dress modest

But do you really?

Far from Islam

If you’re honest


The sun is out

And clothes are discarded

Satan on holiday

Most people astray


Even the person with shorts

And woman with a bikini

Is regarded as modest nowadays


So you compare to them

Kaffirs without shame

Dignity or honour

And say you dress Islamic

But the reality is tragic


I suppose you try your best

To avoid the seduction of kufr

And so you compromise

And go halfway

Not fully Islamic

Or jahil

But somewhere in between

You’re not a hypocrite

But you’re easily misled


Fashion is like a god

Seducing and influencing

Those with weak thoughts

Making them a victim


People stare

But most don’t care

They love the attention

Hijab with tight clothing

And plucked eyebrows with make up


They need a shake up

And told the truth

That they are far from Islamic

And mostly jahil


Tabaruj on display

They might as well dress like the rest

Take of the hijab

And be semi naked


At least Islam won’t be blamed

And they won’t be shamed

For dressing like the non-Muslims

And thinking that they are modest

So take heed

Of these few words

And act upon Allah’s commands

And reject the lure of society

Calling you us to impropriety

Hey, I wanna try. A response to Showkat:


You sound like a fundamental-

ist, being all judgmental,

Who are you to judge anyone,

When you're just a smelly bum,

If you kept you gaze towards the floor,

You wouldn't notice them anymore,

If girls in hot weather make you too horny,

Go live somewhere cold like Norway!


Took me 5 mins!

I don't think anyone should be offensive to anyone else 🙁 That's not Islam :([/quote]


That is true...


But in my defence I was trying to make it rhyme, without spending much time.

(wow I did it again!)


I am sorry Showkat. I regret the rudeness, but I still stand by the sentiment. Don't blame women for your lack of restraint. Next thing you'll hear is that immodestly-dressed women 'deserve to get raped' (I have heard this dozens of times from Muslims, astaghfirullah).

Whys everyone talking in rhyme? {shrugs 'oh well'}


Showkat be warned, Shawkat beware

By closing your eyes you see what isnt there,

Showkat be calm, open your eyes,

Theres no naked women, just truth and lies.


Love to live, living to die,

Be careful what you say,

Destiny knows what has to be,

You'll pay the price, nothing is free.

the first part is neat

the second i dont know,

it sounds a bit offbeat

coz the rhymes just do not go


Ya'qub — Thu, 31 Jul 2008 - 13:25

Writing poems ain't no joke,

It's hard to make them rhyme,

You think and think and think and think,

It's just a waste of...of...

err...


Money.

Erm... Somewhat...scary poem...


too many words i don't understand

and too many presumptions...

who exactly is it talking for? If it's only about the author, i think "you" should be changed to "I" OR "ME"

i.e Fashion is like a god

Seducing and influencing

Those with weak thoughts

Making them a victim


Should/could be

Fashion is like a god

Seducing and influencing....me.

(which btw sounds like an excuse...it might be better to take responsibility for actions)


"At least Islam won’t be blamed

And they won’t be shamed"

Well on the plus side, it rhymed

And i agree that anyone claiming to be Muslim maybe should act in a way that represents Islam....

however people do worse things that other people judge Islam by (i'e suicide bomb etc) And you have NO right to say


"They might as well dress like the rest

Take of the hijab

And be semi naked"


the "rest" don't ALL dress semi-naked and if they do, it's none of your business, it's completely up to them....as is Muslim girls wearing what they want to...

I have NEVER seen someone wearing a Hijab and being "semi naked"

And who is anyone to tell people not to wear a hijab?

I admire anyone who has the courage to wear a Hijab...and they (no-one actually) don't need to answer to you...


I wonder if Showkat's a girl or a boy...
