Dear Pakora bhai and Ms./Mr. jhappi
I’m sorry. I’m not myself these days. Going thru a rough phase and very easily irritable. I seem to be getting angry and rude with everyone on GS 
Maybe I need to take a break from GS break. I’ve never been like this 
*sigh :S :S :S
Please accept my apologies both of you 
jhappi, if it makes you happier, I’ll edit the shayr k 
Peace

little human sorry i totally dint see ur post earlier...
its actually a cynical / pessimistic piece of poetry but i think its been written in a way that it really strikes u, and i'm intrigued by this thought of ghalib ...
basically it boils down to saying that whatever u hold sacred, don't question it or try to analyse it, just let it be sacred for urself, because who knows, what the real truth behind it is? atleast right now u r living in blissful ignorance. maybe that sacredness and goodness is just a facade and what's inside is the very opposite...so when u actually probe further it will be shocking/disappointing.
make sense? :)
And what about my Actual Question all of u 
It was simply what u think of pardah, what u beleive & how much will u follow, whats enough for u, a burqa, jeans, shalwar kameez etc. I asked for the personal opinion & a thought process behind it. I never asked about religious involvement.
ok janab her r my views ji as far ur all physically coverd and shows ur modesty than it doesnt weather its jeans ,shalwar kameez or long skirts
I once saw an interview of a Muslim girl from Morroco or Lebanon giving an interview about Islam wearing a tank top and shorts…Upon being asked why she dressed like that as Islam doesn’t allow her to be dressed like this, her answer was that her modesty was in her heart, so it didn’t matter what she wore…
Thing is, today if Allah :swt: tells a Muslim to do A, the Muslim will find some excuse not to do it, because a) it is hard, b) It makes one stand out in a crowd or c) they have a stronger opinion of not doing it than a stronger conviction in their faith…
If Islam tells you to wear a hijab and cover your head, why do people justify their lack of understanding by coming up with lame excuses? If you don’t want to wear Hijab or Dupatta, at least be courageous enough to do it and say that it hides my beauty…Why be a half-hearted idiot by disavowing the commands of Allah :swt: for your own weaknesses? If you don’t wanna wear it, don’t, but don’t come up with ‘religious’ idiocy to cover up your own failure to observe Islam’s injunctions…
‘Oh, it’s okay, as long as there is modesty in the heart I am fine even if I parade naked down the street’, or ‘Oh it’s okay, as long as I am wearing clothes that hide my skin I am covered, no matter how tight the clothes are’ e.t.c…All lame excuses which have no basis in Islam, just to disobey Allah…
yehh wat elz :k:
It's okay irem. I think I asked too much.
but i really like your explanation:
===>>basically it boils down to saying that whatever u hold sacred, don't question it or try to analyse it, just let it be sacred for urself, because who knows, what the real truth behind it is? atleast right now u r living in blissful ignorance.
You know that means that faith is blind and coming up with excuses under the CURTAIN of personal opinions is simply a matter of ignorance.

Hi Irem,
Plese dont get me wrong, but such poetry and more does exist in book form but not aggreed upon by many. Remember ! we all live in a society of claimers this and claimers that.
The meaning surley is very vague, deliberatley attempted to draw attention and scare. I dont want to offend any one here.
But here in Toronto I went into a Islamic religion book store and this Sales man with beard and religious looking man was on hand for any help. After browsing throgh for half an hour and I was quite amazed with the selection of titles they had and I was saying to my self , How come I missed this and I missed that. Well the answer dawned on my
gradually that I was in a “Qadiani” book shop.
Ever since when I talk to some about religion matters I prob the idea of an “outside” intrusion who might make look Islam Pethatic and cultureless.,
Allah bless us all :insha:
