Cadar Bagi Wanita Muslimah (Suatu Kajian Perspektif Sejarah)

Niqab is part of one type of clothing used by some women in the Jahiliyyah period. Then this clothing model lasted until the time of Islam. Prophet Muhammad saw. does not question the clothing model, but does not require, appeal or circumcise the niqab to women. Suppose the niqab is perceived as clothing that can maintain women's dignity and "wasilah" to maintain their survival as claimed by a number of parties, surely the Prophet Muhammad. will oblige it to his wives, where they (the wives of the Prophet) are the most entitled families to be guarded by the Prophet. But instead the Prophet did not pass it on. Nor does it apply to female companions of the Prophet. Niqab or veil is only part of the clothes worn by some Arab women from both Pre-Islamic (as explained above) and afterwards. There is no special order regarding this garment, both its obligations and its extinction.
