Question
Is it allowed for a Muslim woman in hijab to model Islamic wear? Furthermore, is it permissible for women to pose on social media sites with hijab? Even men can see the women.
Answer
Women who model so-called 'islamic' wear suffer from prostitute tendencies. They are in fact like zaaniyahs. It is haraam for women to do any kind of modeling. The Deen emphasizes concealment for women, not self-expression and projection, especially for the vulgar eyes of immoral fussaaq and fujjaar males. Hijab is not restricted to dress. The first demand of Fardh Hijaab is to remain at home. Posing for social media is in fact prostitution in terms of the moral code of the Shariah. Such women are mal-oon (accursed). The La'nat (Curse) of Allah Ta'ala and the Malaaikah settle on them.
