Re: Why Hijab
I came across the same meaning: Hijab to mean a curtain, a divider etc, but not an article of clothing to cover a woman. Many things were change and brought into practice because of the matriarchal society at the time. Certain 'important' people could not handle the idea of being ruled by a woman and so came the so called 'revelations from god' that women MUST do this and women must do that! It was all put into place to control women...
