  1. Yes of course, why not? But by different ways and places for example: if the women was married she should be attractive for her husband this meaning there no need to make up outside apartment. Also she has to hidden her beauty from everyone except her husband and children. They do this by themselves or anther women. Also by using make up.

  2. No,they don't. Egyptian women are trying to show and be respected and do not make signs to attract attention

  3. Hi Laura,

    Women are women in all places, they would like to be attractive and sexy.

    Islam put no boundaries on woman to be attractive as long as it is in a lawful "halal".

    She can whatever she want for her husband, she can do her hair, make up ...dance or whatever you can think about.

    All is ok for the husband and among her family. She is not allowed to do so in public.

  4. If female can do such things only for their husbands at home, it does not sound like Islam puts no boundaries on women wanting to look attractive.
    In the states, lots of women dress up and want to look attractive for their own satisfaction not for their husband.
    Does Islam prohibit women's desire to look attractive for themselves?

  5. I have seen many attractive, young Egyptian women on the street with tight clothes and make-up. Often times, they put on pretty thick make-up like models in fashion shows. Are they considered bad Muslims?

    Hi Jisun,
    First of all, we can't say this person is good or bad. Allah only knows what is inside us.
    But we can say that what these women do is a bad thing, i.e. it is a sin. So it is prohibited. Actually, when I see a woman do this thing I can't know if she better than me or not. For, I don't know what other things she does. only I can say that she makes a mistake.
    women who do this thing can be easily exposed to sexual harassment.

  7. Yes of course Egyptian women like any other women in any nation. They all the same from this concept. However, it is a matter of relative point of view. Some women always need to feel that they must be attractive for any male around them. The right concept is the relation between male and female must the legal one(the marriage).

  8. Who said the Egyptian women must be bad, ugly and un beautiful and un attractive who said that?no one say that
    religion does notsay that practic
    But the question that should be said is a Muslim Egyptian women are attractive?
    Or those who sport the Egyptian women?
    Answer acquiring higher the husband and why ask them to be attractive no her husband?
    There must be a malicious objectives behind this question?

    Is normal in any society thatwomen tends to show their attractiveness, as well as in the Egyptian society tends more women to show their attractiveness, and they do so for reasons many and varied, may be that related to the marriage, have regard to the Balncop, have regard to the matters instinctive in the women.

    With regard to marriage, some women in Egypt tend to show the attractiveness of the order to marry, by showing their beauty, when seen by men admire this beauty,and marry him.
    here I want to point out that the problem of the large number of unmarried women is a problem found in Egypt.
    this proplem have been mentioned by the Prophet fourteen centuries ago,and resolved by Islam when Islam Permitted to man to marry with four wives.

    With regard to the family of the girl or woman may arise in an environment far away the morals and values, and then affected the girl that the environmen.
    may be the girl come out of her house in the form unrespected it will put perfume, has proved something of her body, was dressed in a very narrow, and these things contrary to the teachings of religion Islamic.

  14. There is no reason why Muslim women to be attractive, beautiful, graceful, elegant, wonderful.
    And she has every right to use the means to that
    But not all people, but to those who deserve to see the beauty of a woman, like her husband, her father, her brother.
    The fact that women are such a doll, this is rejected by Islam

  15. Hi Jisun,
    First of all,We miss you and We hope to see you this year before we leave the center.
    I know that many Muslim girls in Egypt wearing tight thick clothes and wearing make-up And it shows them beauties.
    But this is opposite of the teachings of Islam
    Islam orders women to shows natural, without makeup and without narrowing of the clothes.
    Jisun:what do you think of woman who does not put makeup and does not wear tight clothes and short skirts do seems to form a bad.
    Islam ordered all people to clean their bodies and clean their clothes, but Islam is concerned more and more within human.
    Islam does not order women to appear more beautiful and more attractive and Islam did not tell the women to show bad looking, but our religion ordered women and men to show their natural form only.
    Thank you Jisun.
