O Muslims, the issue of women is neither new nor easy. It is, in fact, a great issue that must be paid great attention to and things that could uproot evil and corruption in relation to them must be studied. It is an eternal issue, old and recent. It was an issue for the Children of Israel and they were cursed when their women openly strutted about with their adornment showing. It is also an issue for thisUmmah)nation( about which the Messenger of Allaah,sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, warned. In aHadeeth, he said:"I have not left behind a more harmful temptation to men than women."]Al-Bukhaari and Muslim[ ThisHadeethimplies a warning against this great temptation as well as an attempt to eradicate the causes of evil from the very outset.
O Muslims, the problem of women has become serious and its evil has greatly and increasingly appeared in many forms: not adhering toHijaab, revealing their faces and loitering in markets. All this has been forbidden by Allaah The Almighty and His Messenger,sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam. Allaah The Exalted Says )what means(:}….And do not display yourselves as ]was[ the display of the former times of ignorance.{]Quran 33: 33[
Women have gone to extremes in this even beyond the impermissible exposure of beauty in the time ofJaahiliyyah)ignorance(. This saddens the hearts of the believers who fear the punishment of Allaah, His revenge and painful torture. They are afraid of being afflicted with the same punishment which afflicted the Children of Israel when their women impermissibly exposed their beauty.
O Muslims, women have gone to extremes in the impermissible exposure of their adornment. A woman now wears the finest clothes when she goes out to the markets. She wears a gown, which is either short and does not cover the whole body, or light that reveals what is underneath or she lifts it to reveal the beauty of her clothing and adornment, or tight indicating the size of her body. All this, however, is forbidden by Allaah The Almighty and His Messenger,sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam. Allaah The Exalted Says )what means(:}And let them not stamp their feet to make known what they conceal of their adornment.{]Quran 24: 31[
In this verse, Allaah The Almighty forbids women from stamping their feet to make known the anklets which they wear and conceal. In olden times, women used to wear anklets on their feet but this no longer exists. If Allaah The Almighty forbade stamping the feet for fear of making known the concealed anklet, then what could be said about the woman who wears the most beautiful clothes and then raises her gown so that people would see it and be tempted? There is no doubt that the temptation occurring due to seeing is greater than that occurring because of hearing.
Some women reveal their arms to show their jewelry, adornment and soft complexion. Worse than this is when the woman goes out perfumed. It was narrated that the Prophet,sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said:"Any woman who applies perfume and passes by people to smell her fragrance is an adulteress."
O Muslims, the matter is great and dangerous. Intermixing between the two sexes is widespread in markets where women crowd with men, speak with loud voices and joke with men without either bashfulness or fear of the Ever Powerful.
O Muslims, where are the men? Where is chivalry? Where is nobility? Where is the manly zeal?
The ignorance of today is much severer than the ignorance of former times. Once the Prophet,sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, came out of theMasjid)Mosque( and observed that there was intermixing between the two sexes on the pathway. Thereupon, he said to the women:"Give way )walk to the sides( as it is not appropriate for you to walk in themiddle of the road. Stick to the edges."Thereafter, the women would walk so close to the wall that their dresses would rub against it.
O Muslims, where are the women who respond to the command of Allaah and His Messenger,sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam? Offer advice to the foolish among you and persistently push them to follow the truth. Men are required to prevent women from exposing their beauty and applying perfume when going out. This must take place before the advent of the curse of Allaah upon us. Even, greater than this is that we must do so before the prevention of rain. Birds curse disobedient humans and the sea asks daily for permission to drown them. Where is protective jealousy about religion? Women have been left free to joke with men, buy and sell from them and go to markets without adherence to the commands and prohibitions of theSharee‘ah. Indeed, to Allaah we belong and to Him we indeed shall return. There is no power and no strength save in Allaah.
O Muslims, beware of imitating Western traditions. Beware of imitating the disbelievers in the manner they dress and walk. The person who imitates a certain people belongs to them. Do not be deceived by their falsification. They beautifyBid‘ah)religious innovation( and erroneous deviation for you.
O Muslims, if your enemies called you to disbelief orShirk)polytheism(, you would surely not respond to them. Hence, they are satisfied with destroying your morals and religion from other angles. One such way is through minor sins, which you belittle but which in fact are collecting for you and will finally lead you to Hell. In aHadeeth, the Prophet,sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said:"The devil has despaired of making idols worshipped )again( in the lands of the Arabs; so, he will be satisfied with making you commit what is lesser than this, which is minor sins.These minor sins will be destructive on the Day of Judgment."
O Muslims, fear Allaah and do not be deceived by what your enemies offer you. You are now at the crossroads, for this worldly life is opened to you now and the enemies whom you brought to your countries have exalted after they had been humiliated by Islam and upgraded after they had been degraded by Islam, gather to attack you. Islam commands you to take theJizyah)a type of tax( from them willingly while they are humbled. However, you raised their position and brought them to spread mischief in the Muslim countries.
Some brought their evil habits and deviant traditions. Some of you traveled to their countries and you saw them in the print, audio and visual media. Consequently, either you must have strong and firm faith on which the enemies' schemes are destroyed, or you have a strong Muslim personality and therefore you neither transgress nor are deceived by them and adhere to the same methodology of your righteous predecessors and enjoy the best of both worlds; or you adopt the contrary approach: weak faith, weak personality and collapse in the face of temptations. In such a case, your share will be the losing deal. This loss cannot be compensated and your break is incurable if you are included in the verse in which Allaah The Exalted Says )what means(:}"Indeed, the losers are the ones who will lose themselves and their families on the Day of Resurrection. Unquestionably, that is the manifest loss."{]Quran 39: 15[
Sister, I am telling you that the gap will keep widening as long as our girls are heedless of what the enemies are scheming against us. Unfortunately, the Muslim girl is trapped in the snares of those who seek corruption and they are confined to their ambushes, consciously or unconsciously. This is the bitter reality.
Wake up, O Muslim girl, granddaughter of Khadeejah and ‘Aa’ishah! Be aware that what is being planned against you is an evil plot with grave consequences. Despite its slow start, its end is abysmal. Evil does not emerge all of a sudden. The target is not to removeHijaabonly, but when theHijaabis removed, bashfulness breaks away and its sources dry up. At this point, disaster will loom and the loss will be in this life and in the Hereafter. Look around and you will discover the truth.

O Muslims, listen to the Quran when it calls you by the most sublime name - believers. Allaah The Exalted Says )what means(:}Tell the believing men to reduce ]some[ of their vision and guard their private parts. That is purer for them. Indeed, Allaah is Acquainted with what they do. And tell the believing women to reduce ]some[ of their vision and guard their private parts and not expose their adornment except that which ]necessarily[ appears thereof and to wrap ]a portion of[ their headcovers over their chests and not expose their adornment except to their husbands.{]Quran 24: 30-31[
See the details of this noble verse. This is an address for those who have gone to extremes in permissible things, those who started to act according to their own opinions even though Allaah The Almighty will ask them about that on the Day of Judgment when they will stand before Him. Allaah The Almighty Says )what means(:}…. And not expose their adornment except to their husbands, their fathers, their husbands' fathers, their sons, their husbands' sons, their brothers, their brothers' sons, their sisters' sons, their women, that which their right hands possess.{]Quran 24: 31[
The verse does not say that it is permissible for them to expose their adornment to their friends or their non-Mahram)marriageable( kindred. Listen to the words of Allaah, understand His religion and do not be overtaken by blind ignorance. Allaah The Exalted Says )what means( at the end of that verse:}And turn to Allaah in repentance, all of you, O believers, that you might succeed.{]Quran 24: 31[
Exposing women's adornment is only permissible beforeMahrammen. Those who claim wisdom as well as those who ignore this manifest clarification are invited to understand the Divine command. It is as if they say: we neither hear nor obey. They permit intermixing between the two sexes when they are friends or kindred. The issue ofMahramand non-Mahramrelatives receives no attention. They all gather and joke with each other and both men and women eat together. All this takes place under the false claim that hearts are clean and pure. Exalted is He and High above what the ignorant say by great sublimity.
O you who spend long hours watching videos and the television, are your hearts purer than the hearts of the Companions, may Allaah be pleased with them?
The faith of some of the Companions could outweigh the faith of the wholeUmmah)Muslim nation(. They witnessed the revelation of the Quran and the Messenger of Allaah,sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, was among them. The Prophet,sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said to them:"Nomanever meets awomanin seclusion butthe devilbecomestheir third)companion(."
They responded,"We hear and obey."This was their attitude towards all the commands of Allaah and His prohibitions. Let them rejoice for they were the best people and therefore Allaah The Almighty chose them as companions for His Messenger,sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam.
Then, when it was our turn in the fourteenth century, we said,“Our hearts are clean and pure and intermixing between the two sexes is allowed among friends.”Some of us even shake hands with each other and do so with non-Mahramwomen. We did so and considered it a form of progress, development and civility.
However, this, in fact, is disobedience to Allaah The Almighty and His Messenger,sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, and a deterioration from the standards of Islam and faith into imitating the enemies of Islam and Muslims. In aHadeeth, the Prophet,sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said:"The person who imitates a certain people belongs to them."
This also features weakness of faith and a lack of protective jealousy. If such people were jealous, none of them would ever allow a non-Mahramman to talk with his wife as a friend. This leads to lack of bashfulness and indifference on the women’s part.
It is known that a woman shaking hands with non-Mahrammen is prohibited and there is a relevant severe threat from Allaah. So, fear Allaah, avoid the traits of the pre-Islamic era which Islam came to fight and eradicate. You should have religious zeal, bashfulness and chivalry with which you could defend your honor and women. With your chastity and Islam, you will be distinguished from the Westerners as well as those who call to evil and corruption.
O Muslims, you should know that you are responsible before Allaah The Almighty for your women and children. So, fear Allaah, be jealous about your honor and maintain it. Do not turn the woman into a commodity that is exchanged among friends and in the streets. Fear Allaah The Almighty and be conscious of the fact that He is watching you. Fulfill your duties so that you may succeed and be saved from the torture of Allaah on the Day of Judgment, when neither wealth nor children will avail you.

Dought & clear, - He had anal intercourse with a foreign woman butthey have repented. Is it permissible for them to get married?.

We had anal intercourse, but we repented and regretted. We love each other very much we cannot separate. We want to marry and live a happy life. Is it permissible for us to get married?
We follow the ibadhi madhab, and it prohibits marriage between a man and a woman who committed adultry even if they repent. The evidence for this is that Umar ibn al-khattab separated a man who married a woman during her ‘iddah and said: “they shall never be togeather”, another evidence narrated by Ali, A’esha, and albaraa ben azeb, that “if a man and awoman who committed adultry got married, their relationship remains adultry forever”. Trust cannot be there between two who tested each other before marriage. What is your opinion?.
Praise be to Allaah.
Firstly:
You should understand that looking for the right opinion on practical fiqhi matters is something good, and it indicates that a person is seeking the truth that Allaah has enjoined. Even better than this is that a Muslim should look for the correct belief that will save him from the misguided sects which the Prophet(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) spoke of. He said that there would be seventy-two sects, “all of which will be in the Fire” meaning that they are misguided and deserve this warning of Hell.
If you both regret what you did and have repented sincerely, then it is permissible for you to get married, and there is no reason why you should not do so.
As for what you say about ‘Umar ibn al-Khattaab preventing the one who married a woman during her ‘iddah from ever marrying her, it seems – if this is a sound report – that this was a punishment (ta’zeer) to the one who committed a sin, and it was not a confirmation of a shar’i ruling that this is haraam.
What you have quoted from some of the Sahaabah, that they ruled that a couple who committed zina and then get married would remain adulterers forever, may be understood as applying to those who did not repent.
Ibn Hazm (may Allaah have mercy on him) said:
It was narrated from Ibn Mas’ood that he said concerning the one who marries a woman after committing zina with her: They are still adulterers. Then he narrated that Saalim ibn ‘Abd-Allaah ibn ‘Umar was asked about a man who committed zina with a woman then married her. He said: Ibn Mas’ood was asked about that and he said:“And He it is Who accepts repentance from His slaves” [al-Shoora 42:25].
Ibn Hazm said:
The two opinions (of Ibn Mas’ood) are in harmony, because he only allowed marrying that woman after repentance. End quote.
Al-Muhalla(9/63)
And Allaah knows best.
