Hijab and Jilbab
I have question about dressing modestly. A lady in our community who gives us dars, insists that our hijab is not complete without wearing a jilbab or abaya. She says that in the Quran it says that we must wear jilbab or abaya like covering over our clothes. Many of us feel that as long as our clothes are not revealing and do not show the our body and are not tight in showing the outline of our body we can wear any kind of dress. If we wear loose pants and a long shirt which goes past our buttocks and scarf on our head, or if we wear a long skirt, or if we wear salwar kameez, is this not enough, is she right when she says that this is part of our zeenat must we also wear a jilbab.
