Saree or Salwar for Moms!

Re: Saree or Salwar for Moms!

Sara has pretty much pin-pointed the problem that more conservative folks like hussain have with saris.

Sometimes the blouses are stitched too short and the midsection is carelessly revealed.

Sometimes the sleeves are too short, or even non-existent and people find this offensive.

Some people even have a problem with the fact that the drape reveals curves even if no skin shows.

It's a matter of taste and a matter of how your sister/mother/wife wears the article of clothing.

I've seen girls wear shalwar kameez that are more revealing than most of my shorter-bloused saris.

Re: Saree or Salwar for Moms!

Re: Saree or Salwar for Moms!

Re: Saree or Salwar for Moms!

Re: Saree or Salwar for Moms!

Re: Saree or Salwar for Moms!

Re: Saree or Salwar for Moms!

why m i not surprised :konfused:

Re: Saree or Salwar for Moms!

That and the fact that htey're Indian..which folks like Hussain absolutely abhor. So anything that's "indian" is just shameless and disgusting (in their eyes).

Re: Saree or Salwar for Moms!

definately shalwar kameez- i wudnt like my mum wearing a sarreee

Re: Saree or Salwar for Moms!

please find me a "credible" source, which links sari to hindu customs and religion.

Re: Saree or Salwar for Moms!

hussain, let hope you dont wear pants or dhotis since they are part of the western and indian culture. Or is it only that the girly stuff is bad hence all reseptable women should avoid this kinda stuff?

Re: Saree or Salwar for Moms!

sniff sniff I smell hypocrisy.

Re: Saree or Salwar for Moms!

please stick to the topic guys. hussain, not everyone has to agree with your point of view on saris. there is no need to call someone "awara" or be rude.

Re: Saree or Salwar for Moms!

Lol i just got called ugly with black skin!

Back to topic: My ami wore saris right after she got married to Abbu ji but that was about it. But she had some really pretty saris including one banarsi one that i have stolen from her. It still has the color and shine intact even after 30 years. Now she just wears plain old shalwar kameez.

Re: Saree or Salwar for Moms!

i dont wnat to go offtopic. But i should clarify. My husband likes it when i wear a sari and i like it too. But he is also very particular about not showing off any skin or curves. Ofcourse i dont like to do that either. My body is not for others to ogle at. If you wear a modest blouse and drape your sari properly, you dont have to show off skin inorder to look attractive. It is just a dress. I think we need to grow up more. Being a muslim, we are responsible for every single word that comes out of our mouth. Calling someone names is not the muslim way of doing things. Everyone's physical appearence (their color for example) is given by Allah, not by their own selves.

Re: Saree or Salwar for Moms!

sorry…i was being very rude:o …me apologize to all girls except sara/sweetz/sahar:bb: .i cant help it .. it just makes me mad seeing how our(western ones:emmy:) girls promote culture/custom of idolworshippers …dun have prob when a girl wears it for her husband(sarees r gorgeouse ) but outside home its another story lol

Re: Saree or Salwar for Moms!

I talked about wearing modest saris. Not an inch of my stomach/waist/back shows when I wear a sari. The way it's draped covers more than typical shalwar kamizes.

I wear saris because my mother, nani, dadi, khalas, phuppos, female inlaws, IN PAKISTAN, INDIA, MIDEAST, UK, and US all of them have worn saris elegantly and in a refined, modest manner, and I think they look lovely. I don't care that they aren't Pakistani. But it certainly doesn't have anything to do with being Westernized. It has to do with looking nice.

I love shalwar kamiz too. Only idiots think it has to be one or the other.

Wake up and acknowledge the fact that you live in a global society, I can wear pants, dresses, shalwar kamiz, saris, and still be modest and Islamically dressed.

Hussain, You wear pants, so you have given in to the immoral, corrupt, and satanic culture of the West. Pray for forgiveness.

Re: Saree or Salwar for Moms!

ahem hussain uncle, I am still waiting for the evidence of sari and hindu religion being linked. Unless you have anything to back your "claim" I suggest you stop saying it, mr. hypocritical. Avoiding me wont make me go away.

I still wait

Re: Saree or Salwar for Moms!

Stay on topic please, the selection of shalwar kamiz versus saris for mothers and older women.

Re: Saree or Salwar for Moms!

you’re such a weird person

i think saris look beautiful on older women, my grandmother always wore a sari, and i never remeber seeing any skin.
