How are you supposed to wear a scarf, I am getting one as a gift? 9

Let your imagination rule. If it’s a wool scarf, wrap it around your neck a few times and tuck the ends. Or wrap it once around your neck, then tie it tightly (Chicago style).

If it’s a silk/satin scarf then use it as a lovely wrap for your hair or neck (of course).

Or what’s even more fun is if you attach an old watchface that you absolutely loved, and give it a new life by sewing it or hotgluing NEATLY to the scarf. Tie it tightly around your wrist and you’ve got a new, funky mod watch.

Hope that helps!

Do muslim women have to wear a scarf after they get married? 10

I am a muslim and follow islam. I dont wear a scarf but it doesnt mean i go out and about, doing things against islam. I am due to get married soon and wanted to know if muslim women have to wear a scarf.

Couldn’t you wear a bike helmet or bucket with two peep-holes for eyes, if you don’t like wearing a scarf?

How come Indian muslims wear a scarf around their neck and not on their head? 7

This may not be all of them as I do not want to offend anyone,
The majority that i have seen wear do not wear head cover, I saw a lady once that had it on her head and took it off and put it back on again, whats the deal?
Layla yes it is an obligation to cover your hair and to also dress modestly and it does not attract more attention I have worn the scarf for 7 years now and it is the opposite

i`m not sure whether they know exactly what islam is.. but i think the main problem is that they have mix up the culture with religion.. and they might not realise that they are not dressing like what islam ask to as they have been practising it for a long time… and i believe it happen to most of the non-arabic muslims too.. including my own race…

btw, i want 2 insist that covering head IS an obligation in islam.. not only dressing in moderately…
tq

People from the Middle-East have their women wear scarves. How do you tell one from the other? 5

I’ve seen people dressed black from head to toe. Women with just black scarves but face exposed and those who wear a scarf….bland but in jeans and simple prints. What’s the difference?
There is this literally wonderful couple who run a tobacco shop in our neighborhood. The woman always casts her head down and it’s obvious the husband rules without being bossy. She had the most beautiful little girl I’ve ever seen. I have just loved this little girl. She’s always been so happy and sweet. Now she’s at toddler age. She’s so friendly and "play ball" and "bye-bye" all the sweet wonderful things we love to see with kids. At first the the father was fine….now he almost is offended if she gets too much attention. I’ve been one that has heard of female circumscision and all the other things. I literally worry that this beautiful child is somehow going to be harmed to be submissable in some way. Is that true or is it a lie?

It’s possible to recognise someone you know from behind or at night, or if they are dressed differently, by their gestures, the way the walk, hold themselves, and so on.

I would say that people who are used to looking for their friend or relative in a group of similarly clad others will recognise them in the same way ~ gesture, movement, and so on.

It appears that it would be difficult because we are not used to it, but I think you would probably just get used to it after a while.

Cheers

Edited to add: Female genital mutilation is not practised by most Muslim people, although it does happen. It is usually a practice of a particular region, such as parts of Sudan. The submissive attitude you see is more about how the child is raised. It’s entirely possible that by the time she is 15, she will be giving her dad just as much trouble as most teens.

Don’t mistake his fears for his daughter as dislike. Many people from more traditinal societies find the freewheeling western culture a bit confronting, and he may be afraid his little girl will be kidnapped or molested (lots of non-Muslim parents are scared about this, too!).

Many people from conservative cultures feel that the ‘covering’ women wear is a protection from attracting the attentions of a rapist, so it makes sense daughters are encouraged to dress this way.

If you are concerned, start a conversation with the mother one day, I am sure you will discover the parents love their little one very much and she may be the reason they have come to your town, to give her a better life. It’s not uncommon

What are some crafts that have ample demand? 2

I’m looking to make money off of hobbies…I crochet a lot and make amigurumi, or crocheted stuffed animals. However, there isn’t a huge demand for these in America. I don’t want to make things like shawls and scarfs or candles…there’s just too much of that around already. I also think jewelry isn’t a great idea…I don’t know anyone who wouldn’t rather go to the mall and buy a cheap necklace. My question is, what is a crafty product that people would want to buy?

Art
People will buy pieces of art, sculpted, metalwork, paintings etc.
People will also buy cute stuff for their kids, like tutu’s, pillow cases, frilly skirts.
People all over the world will spend money on handmade quilts.

But honestly - a thing that is in serious demand these days is a good alterations person. If you can learn to alter clothing, you could make a lot of money. I know a girl who picks up jeans at Buckle on Friday, hems them and returns them the following friday to pick up more - She makes good money just doing that. A person who can hem, take clothes in and out, will always be able to make money.
Not a lot of girls are learning these things today, so the need is great and the available people are either swamped with what they have, or, they are not that good.
just my opinion.

How do you wear a scarf during the summer? 2008 4

I recently got a scarf from american eagle, and i want to wear it, but not wear it where its too out there.

any help?

i was hoping to wear it today to lol 8/9/08

You could wear it around your neck, tie it around your waist, put it in your hair, whatever.

Maybe tie it on the strap of your bag/purse or just wrap it around your neck and layer some plain clashing tank tops of similar colors of the scarf.
