:) so hi. can you explain to me what certain things mean?

swt?
hadith?
halal?
ameen? is that like amen just spelled differently?
pbuh - i've seen it in connection to Jesus.
dawah?
what is the whole thing about directing to a sister/brother? is that just terms that you use for male/female?
saws?
hadith?
hayaa?
what is the 'lowering your gaze' thing about?
haram?

please - no arguments. just seeking a clarification of terms. i know i have others but can't think of them as of yet.

And yet it sure is a coincidence that he showed up with them.

LOL! I'm not even going to BOTHER learning how to spell his name. It's better to make it up on the spot, like brahbbbabababa111.

I had a question about the different styles of headscarf. NB: NOT debating, simply a fashion question. I know some women in the Caucasus basically pull their hair back and put on a kerchief, looking kind of Sephardic. A lot of women in Indonesia wear a big piece of material that covers their head and shoulders. Some in the Levant wear what looks like a skullcap and tube combo, and I've seen pictures of Persian women with long scarves over their head but showing some hear, like bangs. What (or who) determines the style? Is it a regional thing?

I'm curious because some look more functional than others. Again, I'm not debating the validity or non-validity. Just curious.

None of us know who he is. So I guess that is a no.

Sorry for the delay. Basically the religious law stipulates what must be covered not how it is done. And as far as I know some Shia scholars allow the fringe to show(persians are generally shia)

One of my co-workers, who I am very friendly with, is a Persian. She does not cover her hair and dresses very American. I have seen her sister before, as well as some cousins and friends, and they too do not cover their hair. They also dress very American. However, when my co-worker told me this past summer that she was going to Iran for a few months, she mentioned that she does cover up. I never asked why, but I was given the impression that she didn't care for it. Is covering one's hair a religious practice that should be followed all the time, or is it simply a law imposed on women by the authorities?
