East is a delicate matter. He is always mysterious, incomprehensible and attractive to a European. Many people are also interested in the topic of clothing of Islamic women. Beautiful Muslim women hide their faces, hiding their charms. They are only for close people! According to the girls themselves, capes force other men to be more modest and not take liberties. “Respect me. I'm not a sex object!
What types of hijabs are there?
For the uninitiated - everything that hides the face this is a hijab. But this is not entirely true. Hijab - this is any women's clothing that complies with Shariah standards. Let's try to understand its varieties.
Veil
This is the fabric that is used to cover it, almost weightless. The colors are black, white, blue. When going outside, the girl is completely draped with it. The base of the veil is made of muslin; it hides the face. And then comes the material that covers the entire head.
The veil is the most closed garment. The Muslim woman is covered from head to toe.
Burqa
It is a robe-like robe with long sleeves. The face in this case may be covered chachvan - a special hair net.
Abaya
This is a very soft cape, similar to a spacious, non-fitting dress.
Note! Many people are interested in why abayas are usually sewn black color. It turns out that in ancient times in the East there were wars between tribes; often forays into the enemy’s camp took place at night. All females dressed in black had the opportunity to hide in the darkness. And the men who wore just white, continued to fight, without further concern for the safety of the fairer sex. Abaya dresses can be either simple and modest cut or luxurious. It all depends on the wishes of the owner.
Khimar
Large size scarf. Women cover themselves with it completely from head to belly. Khimar covers his face and falls down.
Hijab-amira
Divided into two parts. The main one looks like a hat on the head, the other is a scarf that looks like a sleeve and is worn on top. It completely covers the shoulders. “Amira” means “princess” in Arabic.
Niqab
Headdress covering the face with eye slits. Usually it is sewn from dense, usually black material, but in the 21st century it is permissible to deviate slightly from tradition and prefer niqabs even from colored translucent fabrics. Still, it looks pretty daring. What if the girl’s next decision is to refuse to cover herself at all?
Note! Sharia laws don't require dress from oriental beauties niqab — It is mandatory to wear only a hijab! And then it is the will of the women themselves.
Sometimes the climate forces them to dress extra to protect themselves from the scorching sun and sand. And in countries like Egypt, low-income families are forced to wear niqab even for very young girls.This way, according to local residents, they will appear more mature. This is done in order to quickly get them married and get rid of the extra mouth.
Burqa mask
It is the most rarely used type of clothing, nevertheless used, for example, in the Persian Gulf. The golden-hued burkas look like a metal net, but they are not. It's just a highly starched material, dyed that color. “Golden” masks are considered the most solemn and beautiful, and are worn only by potential brides. And blacks are already the prerogative of adult married women.
Important! Psychologists have proven that men consider fully clothed females more inaccessible. They are much less likely to allow themselves to be harassed. That's why Eastern women prefer modest clothes.
