Had a brief discussion concerning the Hijaab with fellow Non-Muslim and Muslim associates alike. Now, reading that comment above, makes me reevaluate the purpose of Hijaab or Diraac for most Somali women. Supposedly, for Hargaysa1982, she thinks if you have a "sexy toned arms" you should show it off, throw the Diraac aside and let it all be seen. *This is no way, shape or form an attack on Hargaysa1982*Hargaysa1982 wrote:Agreed! Unless you have some sexy toned arms the diraac waa ceeb qariye. She would've been much more comfy.
Is it a way to cover up that which they don't like about their bodies OR Do they wear it because of the sake of Allah, fulfilling that which has been requested by Allah and his Prophet?
I ask this, because I came across few Somali broads that use to be "Hijabis", when they were out of shape, but, as soon as they started their diet, worked out (with the Hijaab at the time)

Recently, I heard they've been wearing bikinis at the beach, cause...they got that "fine (Coke-Bottle) body shape".
