How to be Modest

By Monica Vandiver

This website shows one how to be modest and follow simple rules of the Muslim women. The website goes through four steps, with pictures, and great explanations of why the rule is the way it is. Briefly, following are the four steps:
1."Wear proper hijab/khimar": the clothing that one wears must cover the head and neck and be loose fitting.
2."Avoid fancy hijabs in bright colours, with patterns or tassels or sequins." The hijab should be simple.
3."Do not wear make-up in front of any non-mahram males, that includes in laws". During Eid, using sparkley lip gloss, eyeshadow and lip stick are okay. Other than this, no non-mahram should see a Muslim woman wearing make-up.
4."Consider that hijab is not just the headscarf." Keep to the modesty concept. It is preferred for Muslim women to wear an outer-garment outside.
