Miss Indonesia Universe 2006 received threatening calls from Islamic parties because of her bikini act
Rules of Islam say, Muslim women should always wear full length cloths such as ‘traditional black abayas’ and ‘veil’ because according to the religious scholars, ‘it is an order of allah’.
Is it practical for a woman to wear the body-covered dress when the temperature is boiling and every other women, men, and children are shedding their garment to beat the hit?
No, I am not advocating that they should defy their religion and wear flimsy garments, but what about the health hazards. Neither is anyone saying that they should start wearing short, two-piece clothes like the women of the western countries.
However, there is a piece of rather ‘bold and shocking’ news for the Muslim men. Tired of restricting their life to domestic abuse, honor killings and gender discrimination, Muslim women are reportedly rumored to be preparing for a sudden outburst in the form of ‘Bikini Revolution’.
According to EZINEARTICLES report, the online traders are witnessing a growing flow of orders for bikinis’ from the women customers of the Muslim community in almost all the Muslim nations worldwide.
A woman who wants to keep her identity under wrap said during an interview:
The men want to hide our beauty in the closet and the clerics want us to take responsibility for the design of the human body, but, the truth is, we didn’t have anything to do with it. Our job is just to live with the design. In fact, to love it and be proud of it as the way Allah made us.
She also said that she is waiting for that moment when she will get to wear her tiny colorful bikini set that she has recently bought: “I can’t wait to put it on. If I don’t get stoned first, I’m going swimming, too.”
Well, this is certainly going to be an event of its own kind: and if the rumor turns out to be true, the world will be seeing a new face of the ‘women in black’ transformed into a ‘woman in bikini’.

Its intresting, during my university time I saw many muslim girls who wear veil with their own choice and no body has forced them to wear it. As much as i know during hot days(I lived in 35C+)temprature and I saw men also covering their heads and faces to protect their skins from sun and hot winds. This idea only suits to those woman who lived in Air conditioners and do not live in such hot areas. Infact the woman who fear Allah will not show her beauty except those whome she is permited. And those girls who only are muslim by their name will wear only two clothes and it does not matter for them and it does not matter for God if they do not obey HIM. Life is very short and such women will soon see where there are heading. The woman I interviewed regarding veiling has entirely different openion. Even western women commented that they feel comfortable with veiling(Fully covered body). The person who never tried how can he/she comment on such issue. Even all woman of world disobey Allah(God) order it will not do any harm to His Kingdom and soon they will taste what they have done here.Inshallah righteous women will never do things like this.God bless such woman.
I have seen Kashmiri muslim females wearing nothing, absolutely nothing under the burqa. That, I felt was their reply to the mullas/maulvis. Recently, I saw designers burqa clad females which show all shape and sticks to the body. I also saw a female wearing burqa upto the waist and portion of hip-showing jeans beneath it. I think, the world is changing.
Politics and fatwas on cloth must be banned.Dont forget Muslim women are playing and played ’encouraging’roles in our own Hindi cinema.
