Psyah.. thank you for a honest response.. and not just blindly attacking me because I have a different opinion like some others have.
The required minimum you mention is based on your interpretation of Islam. For a non-believer (in any religion) like me you can imagine how that angle doesn’t work.
The part about it’s required so that people don’t judge her based on her looks or attack her etc etc. Aren’t we punishing the girl because of men’s perversion? Is that really fair? Why shouldn’t guys do the same thing? Why should guys have to be judged based on their looks? Or risk other women get attracted to him or cause trouble? We all know women can cause a lot of trouble too
Not as extreme or voilent like men can (rape, sexual assault etc).. but trouble nevertheless.
It’s true.. it does prevent perverts from taking advantage… but I think it’s a big sacrifice or punishment for the women to go through all her life..just because there are perverts out there. I am pretty certain burqa clad women have gotten raped too. What’s next? Box them in the basement?
Thanks for your views either way. Peace indeed.
