Book Name:Aslaf e Karam ki Sharam o Haya kay Waqiyat
dirty talks, impermissible relations, seeing and touching with bad intentions, fornication etc. Unfortunately, nowadays amongst them, there are many acts which are committed due to the support or persuasion of family members, friends, relatives, the home environment, market, society, officers, etc.
Currently, in this advanced age, many examples of immodesty and shamelessness can be found. A father should make his daughter Pardah (veil) from strange men, likewise, a husband should make his wife Pardah from strange men, but unfortunately nowadays, a father himself introduces his unveiling daughter to strange men at wedding ceremonies or any other ceremonies in words like, ‘Please meet her, she is my daughter’; the husband says, ‘This is my wife.’ Then that stranger being shameless and immodest starts gazing at her and says, ‘Pleased to meet you.’ From this behaviour of the people, it seems that modesty has gone from our society. Condemning such people, our Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said: There are three people for whom Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ has made Paradise Haram: The first person is one who always drinks wine, the second is one who is disobedient to his parents and the third is a Dayyoos. (Musnad Imam Ahmad, vol. 2, pp. 351, Hadees 5372)
Dear Islamic brothers! We should make efforts to reform ourselves and our family members, friends, relatives and all Muslims and we must develop their mind-set to observe Shar’i Pardah as per Islamic teachings, because Islam is the religion which is the protector of the honour of women. Therefore, she has been assigned the responsibility of providing children with good education and upbringing along with housekeeping in the home. It is stated in Ayah 33 of Surah Al-Ahzaab, part 22:
وَ قَرۡنَ فِیۡ بُیُوۡ تِکُنَّ وَ لَا تَبَرَّ جۡنَ تَبَرُّجَ ا لۡجَاہِلِیَّۃِ ا لۡاُوۡلٰی
Translation from Kanz-ul-Iman: And remain in your houses and do not stay unveiled like the unveiling of the former days of ignorance.
(Part 22, Surah Al-Ahzaab, Ayah 33)
