style hijab for each religion


What comes in mind when seeing one woman with headscarf or hijab? "A good Muslim"? or even "goody people"? 

Whatever it is, I think the hijab is not a symbol that belongs only to Islam or pious person may only be used. So if it feels right do not rush to conclude that the hijab is a Muslim means. As it turns out not only Muslims know that using a head covering. 
Long before Islam, many cultures or other religions in which people first use of the hijab.

catholic

hindu 

amish


and many other examples of cultural or religious head coverings that women use .

Well , the motivation of women using the headgear also vary , but the Indonesian people seem to immediately tell people who use the Islamic head cover means ( because the majority may be ) , and certainly think that the reason people wear hijab because he was pious and religious obey ( ? )

At least so my first assumption , when previously I ( only ) using an Islamic perspective , I like to wonder ( to myself ) why would anyone hijab but sometimes removed using that sometimes , and sometimes also conduct contrary to the rules of his religion . To sum up my thoughts at the time like this :
"If the command executed hijab , why that person does not follow the other rules ? "
Eg like gossip hijab but why ? hijab but why dating? etc. . ( Although it's not a problem for me )

But when I tried to take off my glasses and look from another point of view , I found other reasons someone using cloth cover page. Like for example :
To cover up the disease ,
Hair styles were ugly ,
The physical size / chest ,
To get a mate ,
Look prettier with head cover ( fashion ) ,
As accessories / follow mode ,
Pretend that is considered pious ( as is usually the hijab at -judge more reliable ) ,
Economic reasons ( eg wearing the hijab in order to sell or trade clothing such Muslim demands in movie acting roles , etc. )
Forced by the environment ( rule region of residence , coercion of parents / spouse , environmental labeling , etc. ) .
The reasons as above was actually there . But because most people assume everyone he was kept for the same reasons ( reasons to follow the rules of the religion ) , people who think like that will be surprised to see people perform actions that hijab was not in accordance religion , these people protest ( such as my own experience previously had ) . Though it is not necessarily a hijab is a Muslim .
Kalopun a Muslim , does not necessarily believe the same rules with the protest . 's What I mean ; the interpretation is different , it could be Islam different from the people who protested against Islamic rules are believed people were protesting . Nah .

My own opinion, not hijab hijab that right someone , I realized other reasons as above . Memakluminya and not protest again if you see the hijab but contrary to Islam . Love-love the person he was kept anyway . :)

Well , speaking of the reasons above , the unfortunate people may be forced hijab . I know there are some women who use the hijab because it was forced to rule in the region ( eg Aceh ) . I also know it turns out there are new since the veiled young but growing up he was an agnostic or atheist , and did not dare open the hood for fear the judgment of others . How tired of living in pretense .

From there I learned , do not seem to judge / judge people from the outside view . Wearing the hijab ( head cover ) it was not necessarily Muslim . So do not be surprised if abroad, see the hijab but apparently a Sabian , Zoroastrian or even atheist . : D

Speaking of hijab , if a Muslim is a reason for choosing veiled by religious rules , I strongly agree with the way the Muslim hijab like this:




(Veil covering the hair, chest, waist up, and do not show curves. Only the hands and face should not be covered.) 

But that does not mean I agree, if someone wearing a hijab other than as above then di'kafir'kan. Not that I agree the forbidden-forbid wearing hijab with other styles in addition to styles such as the photo above, someone said that in addition to the above it will match the style of a people (eg Christian, Jewish, etc.). hmm not well, because after all they actually exist and style first above was first there in the other.

Yaa, a good Muslim with my assessment standards are usually considered not good Muslims by 'other Muslims'. That's why I said it was not feasible for us to judge because there will always be contrary to our judgment.
