Script error: No such module "Unsubst". Template:Islamic female dress The term Template:Transliteration (also Template:Transliteration, Template:Transliteration or Template:Transliteration) (Template:Langx) refers to any long and loose-fit coat or outer garment worn by Muslim women. Wearers believe that this definition of Template:Transliteration fulfills the Quranic choice for a hijab. The Template:Transliteration is also known as Template:Transliteration by Persian speakers in Iran and Afghanistan. The modern Template:Transliteration covers the entire body except the face and hands. Some women will also cover the hands with gloves and the face along with a niqāb.[1]

Template:Islamic Culture

A mention of the plural term of Template:Transliteration, Template:Transliteration, is found in the Qur'an, verse 33:59 (Surah Al-Ahzab). A popular translation by Yusuf Ali of the transliterated Arabic goes:

O Prophet! Tell thy wives and daughters, and the believing women, that they should cast their [[[:Template:Transliteration]]] Template:Transliteration over their persons (when abroad): that is most convenient, that they should be known (as such) and not molested. And Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

A number of hadith commenting on the above verse of the Qur'an (33:59) mention the Template:Transliteration.

Narrated Umm Salamah, Ummul Mu'minin: When the verse "That they should cast their outer garments over their persons" was revealed, the women of Ansar came out as if they had crows over their heads by wearing outer garments.

Narrated Umm Atiyya: We were ordered to bring out our menstruating women and screened women to the religious gatherings and invocation of the Muslims on the two Eid festivals. These menstruating women were to keep away from the musalla. A woman asked, "O Messenger of Allah! What about one who does not have a Template:Transliteration?". He said, "Let her borrow the Template:Transliteration of her companion".

Definition and extent

File:Jilbab.svg
The jilbab is a coat. It is rather loose-fitting, and resembles a long raincoat or trenchcoat.

Since there are no pictures of 7th-century Template:Transliteration, nor any surviving garments, it is not at all clear if the modern Template:Transliteration is the same garment as that referred to in the Qur'an.

The root of the word "Jilbab" itself is [جلب]. According to Mu'jam Maqayees Al-Lugha by Ibn Faris, the root has two meanings:

[Two meanings]: One of them is the arrival with something from place to place, and the other is something that covers something...[2]


Al-Shawkani was of the view that a woman must cover her face with a Jilbab in front of non-Mahram men, and he takes this from a Hadith about pilgrimage and comments about its meaning. He also provides the views of both Ahmad ibn Hanbal and Al-Shafi'i:

...[A'isha said:] "The caravan would pass by us while we were with the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, in a state of consecration (i.e., during the pilgrimage). When they came close to us, one of us would lower her jilbab from her head over her face, and when they passed by us, we would uncover it."...

Sportswear

A type of athletic Template:Transliteration was developed by Nike in 2006,[3] allowing women to play volleyball while still respecting a traditional clothing style.[4]

In Indonesia

In Indonesia, the term Script error: No such module "Lang". refers to a headscarf rather than a long and loose overgarment.[5]Template:Better source needed
