Re: No face showing
I was born in Pakistan, raised in US, I and have been regularly visiting Pakistan, and I quite like it. I have been taking in couple of deputations in middle east, mostly in Egypt and Yemen, with on and off visits to Dubai.
There are clear divisions of Hijab/Cover/Pardah
White Arabs Countries: Egypt, Syrians, Lebanese, etc. they cover their heads while they dont care about the rest of the body curves (Asian regions like Malaysia seem to follow same)
Brown Arabs Countries: KSA, Qataris etc Full black color hijab, straighten out, curves are less noticeable
South East Asian: Has been going through alot of evolutions, Viel/shawl is used to cover the conventional regional clothing
Extremists: Those coming from Afghanistan where the have holes in eye zone, whole hijab is actually a mini tent.
Na Sar Na Per types: this is more of people classification than dress classification. they have no idea what they are doing, they are seen wearing veil from their youngest daughters closet, sometimes they use bed linen, and mostly they wear popping cleavage attire to work, even at that time they have no idea what they are doing, they seem to have a world of their own.
you can almost derive all present forms of pardah by mixing 5 basic ingredients. each ingredient does exist in its modest and extremely not modest forms.
Women who do these various forms of pardah, their male counterparts seem to be going to the same mosque! so it’s really women who got lost somewhere in time. No wonder time has come for them to crop things up.
