লিখেছেন লিখেছেন আনিসুর রহমান ০১ ফেব্রুয়ারি, ২০১৫, ০৪:৪৭:৪০ বিকাল

প্রথম বারের মত বিশ্ব-হেজাব দিন, সারা বিশ্বের লক্ষ কোটি মুসলমান ও নন মুসলমান নারীরা পালন করে ২০১৩ সালের পহেলা ফেব্রুয়ারি থেকে; যারা বিশ্বাস করে শ্লালীনতা, ভদ্রতাকে। আমেরিকার নিউইয়াকের বাসিন্দা নাজমা খান নামক একজন অত্যন্ত বিদুষী মহিলা এর উদ্যাক্তা। অনেক মহিলার কাছেই এই হেজাব দিন হল, লজ্জাহীনতা, বেহায়াপনা ও আশ্লীতার বিরুদ্ধে তাদের প্রতীকী প্রতীবাদ। নাজমা খানের এই উদ্দেগ সরা বিশ্বের লক্ষ লক্ষ মুসলিম ও নন-মুসলিম নির্বিশেষে সকল ধরনের মহিলাদের আকৃস্ট করে। উদাহরণ স্বরূপ বলা চলে তার হেজাব দিন (পহেলা ফেব্রুয়ারি) আকৃস্ট করে, বিশ্ব সুন্দরী ২০১৩ কে (Carol Lee) এবং সে হেজাব পড়ে তার প্রতি প্রতীকী সমর্থন গ্যেপন করে । সবচেয়ে মজার ব্যাপার হছে উদ্যাক্তা নাজমা খান আমাদেরর বাংলাদেশের সন্তান। আমরা বিশ্ব-হেজাব দিন এর উত্তর উত্তর সাফল্য কামনা করি।

হতভাগা লিখেছেন : বছরের একদিনের জন্য হিজাব পালন করে বাকি ৩৬৪ দিন খুল্লাম খুল্লা চললে তা প্রকারান্তে হিজাবকেই তাচ্ছিল্য করার সামিল ।

সারা বছর বাবা মাকে অবহেলা করে একদিনের জন্য দিবস পালন করা যেমন বাবা মাকে তাচ্ছিল্য করাই সামিল ।

এই একদিন হিজাব করে যে উনারা সারা বছর হিজাব করবে তার গ্যারান্টি কি ?

শুধু জুম্মার নামাজ পড়লেই কি সপ্তাহের বাকি ৩৪ ওয়াক্ত নামাজ পালন হয়ে যায় ?

হিজাব , নামাজ এগুলো সারা বছর , সারা জীবন পালনের ব্যাপার । যে কোন বিশেষ দিনে এটাকে সীমাবদ্ধ করার নিয়ম নেই ।

আনিসুর রহমান লিখেছেন : এই একদিন হিজাব করে যে উনারা সারা বছর হিজাব করবে তার গ্যারান্টি কি ? The Hajib Day do not design for women to wear the Hajib for whole the year rather its design for non-muslim women to understand/ feel the their fellow Muslim sister which wear the Hajib.Therefore there are no gurantee and the Hajib day do not expect this.The Hajib day only expect from non muslim people to respect their fellow muslim sister.
শুধু জুম্মার নামাজ পড়লেই কি সপ্তাহের বাকি ৩৪ ওয়াক্ত নামাজ পালন হয়ে যায় ? Yes Some people do like that according to their knowledge of Islam but this is not the teaching of Islam and a true Muslim never ever do like that.According to Islamic sharia this people are called FASIQUE.

হিজাব , নামাজ এগুলো সারা বছর , সারা জীবন পালনের ব্যাপার । Yes I am totally agree with you and there are no scsope to disagree with this point with you, if he/she claim a believer.
Unfortunitely I do not catch your this point" যে কোন বিশেষ দিনে এটাকে সীমাবদ্ধ করার নিয়ম নেই."

এমরুল কায়েস ভুট্টো লিখেছেন : সমস্যা হচ্ছে এই হিজাব দিবস টি সম্পর্কে ছেলের যতটা সচেতন তার নুন্যতম ছাড়াও পাওয়া যাচ্ছেনা মেয়েদের পক্ষ থেকে। যদিও অনেক ব্লগার এবং ফেইচবুক ইউজার বোন আছে যার হিজাব পরিধান করে। তারা হয়ত জানেও না যে হিজাব দিবস নামে এখন একটি দিন নির্ধারন করা হয়েছে।

আনিসুর রহমান লিখেছেন : Brother Hajib Day( 1st February) was not design for Muslim women(because a believer woman do not need a Hajib day for her awareness for Hajib) rather it address the Non-Muslim women to get experience---. According to Nazma Khan, the pioneer of the Hajib day, Growing up in the Bronx, in NYC, I(Nazma) experienced a great deal of discrimination due to my Hajib, She reflects. In middle school, I was 'Batman' or 'ninja'. When i was entered University, after 9/11, I was called Osama bin Laden or terrorist. it was awful. I (Nazma Khan) I FIGURED THE ONLY WAY TO END DISCRIMINATION IS IF WE ASK OUR FELLOW SISTERS TO EXPERIENCE HAJIB THEMSELVES. Thanks for your comment.

I think you are talking about Bangladesh women. In fact you are all the way right because of various reason. But the World Hajib Day(WHD)attracted the interest of many Muslims and non-muslims in more than 100 countries worldeide.
WHD litetrature has been translated in 40 language.
there are over 50+ WHD ambassador in over 21+ countries.
This global movement has been covered by mainstream news media such as BBC, Al- jazeera, Huffington post and many more.
Through out last year, Nazma Khan has been invited as a guest speaker at Universities and High school and religious organization
below i give you one comment which helps you to understand how people are attract and show their interest about WHD

মোতাহারুল ইসলাম লিখেছেন : 5219: Ruling on taking part in some annual celebrations
What is the Islamic ruling on taking part in some annual celebrations and occasions, such at the International Day of the Family, the International Day for Disabled People, the International Year of Older Persons. Also what is the ruling on taking part in some religious celebrations such as al-Israa’ wa’l-Mi’raaj (the anniversary of the Prophet’s Night Journey and ascent into the heavens), al-Mawlid al-Nabawi (Prophet’s Birthday) and al-Hijrah (anniversary of the Prophet’s migration), by preparing leaflets or holding lectures and Islamic conferences for the purposes of reminding and exhorting the people (about their religion)?
Praise be to Allaah.

It seems to me that these days which are repeated every year and the gatherings held to mark them are innovated festivals and ways for which Allaah did not reveal any authority. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Beware of newly-invented matters, for every newly-invented matter is an innovation (bid’ah) and every innovation is a going-astray.” (Narrated by Ahmad, Abu Dawood, al-Tirmidhi and others).

He also said: “Every people has its festival (‘Eid) and this is our festival.” (Agreed upon)

Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may Allaah have mercy on him) spoke at length in his book Iqtidaa’ al-Siraat al-Mustaqeem li Mukhaalifat Ashaab al-Jaheem (The Requirements of the Straight Path in Differing from the People of Hell), condemning the innovated occasions and festivals that have no basis in the pure Sharee’ah and the ways in which they corrupt people’s religious commitment. Most if not all of the people have no understanding of the damage caused by this kind of bid’ah, especially when it has to do with acts of worship, but those who are blessed with insight and understanding realize something of the damage that it can do.

What people have to do is to follow the Qur’aan and Sunnah, even when they do not entirely understand the issues of benefit and harm that are involved.

Whoever innovates something on a certain day, such as observing a fast, performing a prayer, preparing certain foods, putting up decorations, spending on his family and so on, will be affected by this and it will create some kind of belief in his heart, because he must believe that this day is better than other days, since if he and those who follow him did not have this belief in their hearts, they would not make the effort to do these things.

“Celebration” or “festival” involves three things: place, time and gathering, in any of which things may be innovated.

With regard to time, there are three kinds of innovation, which may overlap with issues of place and actions.

The first kind is a day which is not venerated at all in Sharee’ah, which was not mentioned by the Salaf and nothing happened on that day to indicate that it should be held in any kind of esteem.

The second kind is a day on which some event happened that also happened on other days, but that does not mean that it should be regarded as a special occasion, and the Salaf did not venerate this day.

Whoever does such a thing is imitating the Christians, who took the days of events in the life of Jesus (peace be upon him) as festivals, and the Jews. But festivals are part of Sharee’ah, and whatever has been prescribed by Allaah should be followed, but whatever has been innovated in the religion is not a part of Islam.

Similarly, the innovation followed by some people (in celebrating the Prophet’s birthday), whether it is done in imitation of the Christian celebration of the birth of Jesus, peace be upon him, or it is done out of love and respect for the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), is not something which was done by the Salaf, even though the reason for doing it was there and there was nothing to stop them doing it if it was good…

The third kind is days which are venerated by Sharee’ah, such as the day of ‘Aashooraa’, the day of ‘Arafaah and the two Eid days, etc., but the people who follow their own desires innovate things that they think are good but which in fact are wrong and are not allowed – such as when the Raafidis go without water and express grief on the day of ‘Aashooraa’ etc. These are innovated matters which were not prescribed by Allaah or by His Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) or by any of the Salaf or the members of the household of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him).

As regards holding regular gatherings, whether weekly, monthly or annually, apart from the gatherings that are prescribed in Sharee’ah, this implies that one is making them as important as the gatherings for the five daily prayers, Jumu’ah, Eid and Hajj, and this is a newly-invented innovation.

The principle in question here is: the Islamic acts of worship which are repeated at certain intervals and are thus special occasions, have been prescribed by Allaah and are sufficient for mankind. If any other gatherings are invented in addition to these gatherings, it means that they are being given a status equal to that of the occasions prescribed by Allaah, which leads to the adverse effects referred to above. This is in contrast to what a person or a small specialized group may undertake on their own sometimes.

On the basis of the above: it is not permissible for the Muslim to take part in these events which are celebrated regularly every year, because of their resemblence to the prescribed Islamic festivals, as explained above. But if it is a “one-off” event that is not repeated, and the Muslim can use the occasion to convey the truth to people, then there is nothing wrong with that, in sha Allaah. And Allaah knows best.
