Assalammu'alaikum,

I can't believe that there are people who think that women who wear the chador might be carrying explosives and that they should be ban from wearing them in Australia.
Ummm...where's the logic here... shall we ban people from wearing long jackets??

Chador in Urdu means (sheet) i think and probably has a similar meaning in Arabic ????

Women were advised to cover themselves modestly, but with WHAT we cover ourselves was not prescribed, as Islam is Universal and cultures are diverse.  In some countries, womenfolk use a sheet over themselves if they have to walk out of their homes, whilst in other countries an Abaya or Jilbab will suffice.

It is sad about the fact that such a decision to ban the "chador" has been called for, however, as we are not necessarily instructed by the Prophet SAW to cover ourselves ONLY by this means, I am sure our Sisters will find other (creative) ways of dressing modestly, Insha Allah.

Thats pretty pathetic...the ban ie!!!! :P
Women are allowed to walk almost naked in the streets and display their bodies like horses at an auction parade ....... no problem with that ......but when they cover themselves to guard their modesty they are hiding explosives!!   >:(

May allah save us from this dajallic culture . Ameen
