In light of my previous post I want to mention something I saw that’s really strange yesterday at the mall.

I usually avoid going to malls, it’s not the place for me. I don’t like the things that go on in malls concerning the youth. The west… well the malls there are nothing but fitnah. But then what you see at malls you see in college or you see on the street or in wal-mart. Women wear Air as their clothing there.

But in Saudia, it’s not something you like to see. Sisters are generally covered up but it doesnt mean they cover because they fear Allaah. Some fear their parents and the government more than Allaah so you find that with their physical covering, they dont observe an actual covering by their behavior or they’ll expose something from their covering.

I remember one time in Jumu’ah in America, I came out of the Masjid and saw a young teenage Egyptian girl wearing a Hijaab and a short skirt exposing her legs. An utter contradiction of Hijaab, do they think they fool Allaah when they do this?

Yesterday I was looking at a donuts stand contemplating whether I should get something to drink from there or not and two girls walked up. They were not in Niqaab so I assumed that most likely they were not Sa’udiyyaat. Usually the Sa’udiyyaat wear Niqaab. But I could be wrong, some don’t wear it. But I know for a fact that they were Khaleejiyyaat. Either ‘Emiraati or Bahraini by their faces, from growing up in the Khaleej it’s easy to tell a Khaleeji from a non-khaleeji.

I didn’t really pay attention to the girls until one of them walked across my vision. Her Hijaab was just thrown over her head so her hair showed but I’ve seen this done often with some of the Khaleejiyyaat from Bahrain usually. Her ‘Abaaya was open, which is not something strange. The strange part is that she was wearing short shorts underneath that ‘Abaaya. So everything from the middle of her thigh to her ankles was showing. Allaahul Musta’aan. I averted my vision within a few seconds of seeing this and felt this feeling of sadness come over me. What has happened to us?

Many of our parents have failed in the Tarbiyyah of their children. Are these the same people talking about the liberation of Palestine? The same people who talk about how the Kuffaar over power the Muslims? Where’s the fear of Allaah O Muslims?
