Shaming women for not being modest is not Islamic

Shezadi

I am a British Pakistani Muslim. I am a former Hijabi. And I see many Muslims shame women on social media for not being modest. This bothers me a lot. This shows intolerance and controlling nature. This sort of behaviour is not very peaceful.

Even Islamic scholars like Nouman Ali Khan and Mufti Menk who is banned in England shame women for not being modest.

When preaching about modesty, they forget to preach about kindness and being humble.

Allah likes kind and humble people.

When Muslim shame women for not being modest, they are neither kind nor humble.

If anything is discussed the least by Islamic scholars then that is kindness because they are obsessed with what women wear.

Those kind of speeches really promote hatred against westernised Muslim women, who are not considered "modest."

That sort of behaviour leads to arrogance.

Arrogance

Arrogance is haram in Islam. However, many religious people are arrogant. They are always on their high horse looking down on others, who are not very religious or those who don't believe in god. They have self-righteous behaviour. They think they are going to heaven and others are going to hell. They judge everyone instead of letting god be the judge. God knows what's in our hearts but religious people think they know me more than god. Even god judges after a person dies. They are stricter judges than god.

Allah cannot tolerate even one drop of arrogance. Anyone with one drop of arrogance will not enter heaven. This means a religious person should be humble and he should never look down on anyone including atheists.

Backbiting

Backbiting is also haram in Islam.

Gheebah

Gheebah is very similar to backbiting. It is basically shaming or slandering someone behind their backs. It is judging somebody's character behind their back to look down on them.

Gheebah is also haram.

Cyber bullying

Trolling former Hijabis is not halal because cyber bullying is haram. Trolling westernised Muslim women is not halal either.

I attached a video of Dina Tokia. She is a former Hijabi and in this video, she reads out hate comments by people who hate her for removing the hijab. Whilst, the hate comments might make you lose faith in humanity but the comments below that video will restore your faith in humanity. Another youtuber called Ali Dawah made like five videos against her and her husband. He stalked another youtuber called Adam Saleh for being too westernised, he confronted him in public for allowing his hijabi fans to hug him and made youtube videos against him.

Bad language

When people troll their Muslim actresses, youtubers or former Hijabis, they use bad language to call their names and to judge their character. Using bad language is haram too. Those who use bad language are not modest, respectful, kind, humble or peaceful.

Harassment

When boys troll women for not being modest, they sexually harass them. In America, you can't even harass Kim Kardashian. No means no. Even a prostitute can say no.

Physical abuse

Honour killings

Qandeel Baloch was a Pakistani social media. She was killed by her brother over honour just because she wore short clothes on social media. Many Pakistanis still justify this honour killing and say it was important to save their conservative culture. The father filed a case against his son and even though the son confessed his crime on camera, still the case went on for three years. In Pakistan, a father is allowed to legally forgive his son if he murders his sister over honour. In Saudi Arabia and Iran, honour killings are still legal.
