All About The Modest Islamic Clothing

By Melissa Wilson


Islam is one of the religions that are identified worldwide due to their rich culture and attire. They are famous for their Modest Islamic Clothing that easily differentiates them from other people. They are also distributed throughout the world although they tend to differ due to the different geographical locations, climate, traditions and social status.

The beliefs and religion of Islam is the main driving reason behind their mode of dressing. The attire should help them clearly express their beliefs and values while ensuring they look descent and modest. Most of these designs may look similar and simple, although they are still beautiful. To make the garments, cotton is the main material used. This makes the garments suitable for wear in mostly the hot and humid areas.

The Islamic attires are divided into two main categories Islamic urban wear and rural wear. The turban wears are costly as they are highly fashionable. They mainly consist of shirt and pant suits, the traditional jubbah and pajamas. Rural wear consist of simple salwar-kurta and the facial black Burkha for the women and the cotton pajamas and jubbah for the men.

The most important garment for the Islamic women is the hijab. With time the concept of wearing, usage, styles and importance of the hijab have changed. The different cultures also play a part in the difference of hijabs. For example in France and turkey, women are not allowed to wear the hijabs in schools while in Saudi Arabia, women in any public place should have a hijab on.

The hijabs are of different types to provide a woman with a wide range of choices to choose form. The different types are as a result of different religions and culture, for example Indian and Pakistan Muslims wear a different type of hijab from those in the Middle East. Muslim women in the Middle East wear a hijab known as Abaya often embroidered and cover the body from head to toe. In the latter the hijab worn is known as burqa which is a two piece covering often in black.

All the clothes that the women wear should be loose fitting so as to reduce the sexual attention the woman attracts. The clothing should cover up the body and ensure that the outline of the shape of ones body is not visible. The real skin color of ones body should also be hidden from sight thus the clothes should also be dark and thick enough for this purpose. Wearing shiny and brightly colored clothing is also banned. These specifications also apply to the men.

Men are also required to cover up their heads as the women using turbans or scarves. The often one used is the kuffiyya which is a checkered scarf. Time has though changed the traditions as men now are required to cover their heads only when attending religious events or at the religious grounds.

The main source of Islamic attire is online stores and wholesale markets. The online stores are the most suitable option for saving up on money as they offer the products at high discounts.
