Even if it was not imposed by the Shari’ah, Purdah (Hijaab) is a natural demand. Honour dictates that women adopt Purdah. Everyday we hear of the increasing evil consequences of non-observance of Purdah, but people refuse to come to their sense. Shame and honour have taken flight from people.
It is indeed an act of mercy that the Shari’ah has commanded the observance of Purdah. The consequences ensuing in this time in the wake of moves to eradicate Purdah are nothing other than the elimination of shame and modesty from women and their open involvement in immorality and rebellion against their husband’s authority.
