Modesty is important not because our bodies are...

Go To Post     Modesty is important not because our bodies are shameful, but because they are very, very good. They are worthy of being veiled in mystery. ... We should dress modestly because we recognize the fact that we are worthy of being loved, and because we love ourselves. Modest dress is important in today's world Jeffrey R. Holland said it this way: You are bombarded in movies, television, fashion magazines, and advertisements with the message that looks are everything! The pitch is, ‘If your looks are good enough, your life will be glamorous and you will be happy and popular.’ That kind of pressure is immense in the teenage years, to say nothing of later womanhood. In too many cases too much is being done to the human body to meet just such a fictional (to say nothing of superficial) standard…In terms of preoccupation with self and a fixation on the physical, this is more than social insanity; it is spiritually destructive, and it accounts for much of the unhappiness women, including young women, face in the modern world #muslimlifestyle #modestfashion #hijab #hijabifashion #modest #modesty #modestclothing
