Peace all,

I need a quick opinoin...

- Is 33:59 talking about 'lengthening garments' so as to be recognized, or about drawing a cloak around ones self?.

peace laytth

I thought all arabs wore long garments or is the long garment a modern inventiongoing back only 1000 years and if arabs always wore long garments then the verse could not be talking about the lenght of garment but about some thing else.

Please remember I dont understand Arabic. I think the following is correct:

AALAYHINNA

An-Nisa (The Women)> [4:15]
Yusuf (Joseph)> [12:31]
Al-Nour (The Light)> [24:60]
Al-Ahzab (The Confederates)> [33:49][33:59][33:55]
At-Talaq (The Divorce) > [65:6]

This entry was rather long for some reason.
