**What is Hayaa? **
**Hayaa [Yanee Modesty and a Sense of Shame] is a primary characteristic of the righteous and a sign of high standards and Eemaan. **
**I was doing some research about what Hayaa was and I came across a fine example – “It is a fine sensitivity and delicate feeling that is evident in the eye and that affects the features. whoever has been forbidden from it has been forbidden from all good and whoever has been crowned with it has obtained honour and nobility and been bestowed with complete good.” **
**-Subhan’Allahu Ta’aala- **
**The Kufaar are cunning and indeed very corrupt – Try and think – think about how they [the Kufaar] manipulate and try to turn us away from Islam – that is recognised to be innocent from the way it looks but internally it is nothing but filth and utter garbage? **
**It is through media, through advertisements. It is their saying terms like ‘MOVE WITH THE TIMES’ - 'MODERNIZATION’ and much much more. **
**-Subhan’Allahu Ta’aala- They portray and spread their gut-infested deviancy through media, magazines and other ways of attempting to corrupt us and take us away by making us turn our backs on revelation – making us turn our backs on Islam. **
**Think about it - on Yaum al-Hisaab [the day of accounts] when you will be standing forth naked and exposed in front of Allah [SWT] - with your deeds hanging around your neck like film negatives - awaiting to be played on the massive screen - How will u answer and say ‘I had Hayaa - I committed no wrong’ **
**Allah [SWT] is our creator - the creator of the heavens and the earth and all that is between it - for he knows us better than we know ourselves and indeed he knows our Niyaa [intention] better than we know ourselves. The truth cannot be hidden from the All-Mighty All-Knowing All-Hearing. **
**Now instead of imitating and listening to the kufaar with all this ‘moving with the times and becoming modern’ backwaas – will you not turn to Allah [SWT] and seek refuge in him? Ask Allah [SWT] to save you from this corrupt Duniya where a majority of the hearts of people are filled with al-Wahn [the Love of this Duniya]? **
**Instead of going with the flow and dressing and acting like the Kufaar will you not build the strength within you and speak loud and proud – **
**Speak loud and proud and protect the honour of a Muslim and say: **
**'I DO NOT - WALLAHI I DO NOT ACCEPT OTHER THAN THE ORDER OF ALLAH [SWT] AND THE TEACHINGS OF MUHAMMAD [SAWS]!!"?? **
**This is how it is - this is the bottom line - **
**What the enemy of Islam wants from us is indeed very precious. It is something that we cannot let go off – If you give them what they want, then –Subhan’Allahu Ta’aala- There is no difference between you and those Pig hold infidels. **
**The Kufaar wish to ruin our Deen, our moral character that many of us strive in following the examples of our Beloved Nabi [SAWS] – They wish to ruin our Hayaa – **
**It is in Hayaa which we get pride and honour. They wish for us to be like them, shameless and ridiculous. They wish for us to be amongst the corrupt society as their women are in. Who dress as though it is normal to reveal flesh and walk around in tight ‘Hot Pants’ and those ‘Boob Tubes’ – they find it normal to reveal their ‘Chests’ by wearing 'Low Short Plunge Line Tops’ that would fit a 2month old Baby. **
**May Allah [SWT] Protect us From This Filth **
**-Ameen Ameen Ameen ALLAHUMMAH Ameen- **
**Hayaa is a part of who we are. This should be one of the most obvious characteristics of Muslim women. This is one of those things that separate us from them. **
**Why? **
**Well its simple, a Muslim woman has a sense of shame, their gaze is [Should Be] lowered at all times, they are dressed according to what Islamic Shari’ah says. No flesh is shown and many are pure [Due to Tawbah]. She keeps herself to herself, and her body is for her husband alone. **
**A Kaafir woman, looks everywhere and anywhere, tell her to keep her gaze down for just a second and she’ll end up having an epilepsy fit, because she can’t resist. They sleep with every man, have boyfriends, nothing is ever permanent with them – These people are always on the move they just never sit still … [Much more can be said, but we have more important things to cover at the moment] **
**Some of the things I have come to see and this really does hurt me and I’m sure many Muslimah’s would agree – and that is to see Muslimahs’ who believe in Allah, His angels and Book [Tawheed ar-Ruboobiya] - they worship Allah [SWT] alone [Tawheed al-Ibaa’dah], they testify that Muhammad [SAWS] is the final Messenger and Prophet of Allah [SWT] yet they walk and roam the streets and roads. Go shopping centres and other places and mix in with the wicked. Many whom wear Hijaabs and Jilbaab and in their hand is a ‘Fag’ – Puffing away as though it is natural for one to see a righteously dressed Muslim doing such a wicked sin. **
**-A’oudhubillahi Minshaytaanir Ra’jeem- Young Muslim women, who go out beautified [yanee wearin alot of make-up] or wearing Hijaab that is of such bright colours or has attractive beady patterns with tinsels hanging from it. Wearing Jilbaabs that are heavily embroided and/or bright. Now where is the Hayaa in that? **
**Wearing such ‘Attractive’ Hijaabs or Jilbaabs does nothing and is of no benefit, for all it does is increase one in sin. For it stabs a man in the heart and makes him look towards you – And I wouldn’t even blame him as much as I blame the Muslimah’s – for it is common sense to not wear such bright clothing. **
**It kills and the purpose and the meaning of a Hijaab and Jilbaab. **
**Our beloved Nabi [SAWS] said: “AL-HAYAA KHAYRUN KULLAAH [Hayaa is all Good]” [Recorded in Sahih Muslim] **
**In this society we have Muslim women who wear such tight clothes, that not only is her figure visible but so are her bones. Despite knowing and having natural knowledge that it is forbidden to wear such clothes she still wears them out of ignorance. **
"THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF PEOPLE IN HELLFIRE - **
AMONG THEM ARE THE WOMEN WHO ARE CLOTHED YET NAKED, ASTRAY, TEMPTING AND WHOSE HAIR IS PILED UPON THEIR HEADS LIKE THE HUMPS OF CAMELS. THEY WILL NEITHER ENTER AL-JANNAH NOR EVEN SMELL ITS FRAGRANCE." [RECORDED IN MUSLIM] **
**And wears such short clothes that her entire legs to just below her buttocks is all visible. **
**In a well known Hadith – a Noble Female Companion asked Nabi [SAWS] about the length of a Garment – and Nabi [SAWS] said: “LOWER IT BY A HAND-SPAN” so she said: “BUT HER FEET WOULD THEN STILL BE EXPOSED!” so He [SAWS] Replied “THEN BY AN ARMSPAN AND DONT EXCEED THAT!” **
**[Recorded by at-tirmidhi and others and ruled this hadith as hasan sahih [yanee good and authentic] in sunah at-tirmidhi no.1415] **
**A woman’s voice is Awrah - meaning just as a woman should and does cover her body she should do the same to her voice, unless, there is a necessity to speak. But I have come to notice many tend to speak out loud without any Hayaa at all. Many speak so loud that you can hear them from the other side of the road, giggling away each time a brother walks by. **
**Of course there are many many more examples, but –Insha’Allahu Ta’aala- I’d like to give a final example before ending this talk … and this is a about High Heels. **
**Now I’m in agreement with many Fuquhaa [Scholars] who hold the same opinion regarding the view on high heels as being impermissible to wear due to the deception, bodily harm and the obvious fact that it causes seductive way of walking and drawing undue attention. **
**Now wearing high heels is indeed a form of deception and seduction. **
**Its obvious really, but due to ignorance many ignore and continue with their Kufr ways … **
**Deception. **
**Many will think your tall when your not. As many tend to wear it to look taller – therefore it is lying. **
**Seduction. **
**In the eyes of one who sees her will find it to be very seductive from the way she walks. **
**Bodily Harm. **
**Well – If your amongst those who wear high heels, give me a call when your 30yrs and I’ll come with a back-support for you. **
**Women do such things out of ignorance. Its natural for a Kaafir woman, for she is morally corrupt anyways. But to see Muslim women do such things does nothing but brings pain to our hearts. Many Muslim women close their eyes, and block their ears from those who teach and spread the Haq. Block their ears from hearing what Islam states and expects. This kind of filthy behaviour does nothing of advantage to the Muslim woman but only makes things worse for her in this Duniya and al-Akhira and spread more and more Fitnah. **
**Do you honestly think Allah [SWT] Will be pleased with the women who dress as such? **
**To dress like a ‘Clown’ [Yanee Make-Up, Colorful Clothing e.t.c.] is a Sin as it is as though one is turning their backs on revelation. Because it is Allah [SWT] Himself who clearly tells such women not to display themselves. **
**In Surah al-Ahzaab – Ayah: 33 – **
**Allah [SWT] Says: “DO NOT MAKE A DISPLAY LIKE THE DISPLAY OF THOSE PREVIOUS TO ISLAM [JAHILIYA - IN IGNORANCE]” **
**When al-Hayaa goes from a woman, when it slowly yet gradually leaves a Woman – it is indeed a weakness in her Eemaan – By Allah [SWT], there is no good in this Duniya nor in al-Akhira when al-Hayaa is gone. **
**Yes, we have all been through Jahiliyyah - we have all committed sins where the word ‘Hayaa’ was never a part of us - despite knowing that ‘modesty’ should be embedded in a woman’s qalb - in a woman’s heart at all times - **
**-AlhumdulillahI Rabil’alameen- we have knowledge, Allah [SWT] has shown many of us the path -ALLAHU AKBAR- **
**Protect and preserve your entire Hijaab. Bin the Hijaab of beautification and continue with the obedience of Allah [SWT]. Do as the Qur’an and Sunnah say and ignore all that which goes against the Qur’an and Sunnah – Stand up for the Haq and hold firm onto the Rope, hold firm onto the Banner, hold firm onto the Flag of Islam. Hayaa is a part of you, it is no stranger. It completes the title of ‘Muslimah’ **
**If you wish to cover your ears, then do so the talks of the West. It is part of their sick nature to spread Fitna and a cheap tactic to destroy you in deen. Switch the TV off and Chuck away the magazines and books and Listen and read to what al-Qur’an says and go by the teachings and examples of our Beloved Nabi [SAWS]. That is where your Jannah is. That is where your goal lies. **
**Be brave and strong. Speak back to the Kufaar who dare attempt to ‘Teach’ you about ‘Modernization’ – Speak back the words of al-Qur’an and Quotes from Ahadith – For this will sure make the Kufaar choke and strangle them due to you upsetting and angering them. **
**Let the Kufaar suffocate and die a miserable death – but don’t you go down nor follow the same path as them. For if you do, then surely you too will follow them into the fires of Hell. **
**We’re Muslims – So be proud of your deen and speak the Haq at all times - **
**Forbid evil and do good. **
**Subhanaka Allahummah wa Bi’hamdikaa - Ashaddu an Laillaha Illaaa Anta, Asagfirooka wa Atoobu Illayka. **
