The principle behind the burqa is that it is clothing that maintains personal modesty. Clothing that is worn as recommended by the Qur’an is called Hijab. In purple bridesmaids dresses certain portions of the Qur’an, Allah’s words as stated by Muhammad are that women should cover their “beauties”: their chests, hair, legs, and arms. These should only be viewed by husbands and family. Not all Islamic scholars feel that these passages describing Hijab mean the same thing.
Some Muslim women feel that the command is kept cheap bridesmaid dress by covering the hair only by wearing a headscarf called Khimar. Others may wear a headscarf and veil, called the Niqab. Some wear the Chador, which is very similar in construction to the Burqa. Others feel that no women should have their clothing dictated to them by an oppressive “male led” government. However, dressing modestly is usually a large part of following Islamic law for Hijab. Modest dress is imparted upon men as well.
