Does faith in a theory of God should also change your dress, appearance,and social conduct as in Islam?

Faith is an internal matter. It does not require any external logo in the shape of dress or cap or facial distinctions. But unfortunately the conflicting religions in the west insist on their number by conversion. And perhaps for self confidence to know and give publicity to their respective numbers prescribe dress codes and other distinctive identity marks. It is basically an identity crisis with the Muslims with their religion, their nationality and their cultural identity. Uniformity in look can never unify the mankind. It is unity of mind which can bring about unity among human beings.

I'm a muslim. And I always dress in Hijab (covering everything except face and hands) how is written in the Quran.\n\nThat way my beauty is only for my husband to enjoy :-)\n\nI don't think I would want everybody seeing. I would feel a little naked.

Well , he is not completely wrong dear , \nit seems like he is a Muslim , and in Islam, it's preferred for women to cover all their body except for FACE and HANDS , that means , they should dress in modest cloth which doesn't describe their body in order to be respectful ... \nif u want 2 know more about it : \nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hejab\nhttp://www.uga.edu/islam/Islamwomen.html\nhttp://www.answering-christianity.com/womensrights.htm\n\nAlso notice that he meant by not putting make up, that he prefer the good girls who doesn't try to attract the boys and make relations with them ,and that from his own point of view , the girl should be pure and respectful and also knowledgeable and educated , and she should be a virgin when she gets married and lives happily with her husband .. \n Hope it helps . :)

The Bible says that God created man in his own image.  You need to use your own judgement on what God is really like.  The Main point of Faith, no matter what your religious denomination is the Golden Rule... "Do unto others as you have them do unto you."  PERIOD  It doesnt take a Pope, Rabbi, Preacher, Preist to know that you should be kind to all creatures.

no of course not.I am a muslim and I love all humans.race,colour,religion is not important,you can't put people in groups and lable them according to race colour or religion and so on.there are all kinds of people all around. you should give every one a chance to state their own views.and I think more importantly we all have to work together to reach peace.that would be against all the crazy people who use things like religion to start wars and so on and inturn gain power money... for themselves.\ngood luck.

You need to find who the Mullah or Cleric was that thought that one up.  Like the great portion of Islamic "law" it's not supported in the Koran but was tacked on by some old nasty bearded guy sitting cross legged on the floor of his Madrass school after a long day of poisioning the minds of young boys with hatred.  He was bored, smoking on his hooka with nothing better to do than inflict more burdensome, nonsensincal rules on the unwitting.  Be reasonable... Do you seriously, SERIOUSLY think Allah cares if you, or any man or woman wears gold or not???  Get a life or change religions.\n\nThe idea that it helps differentiate males from females makes NO sense at all because, if you can't tell the difference and you are old enough to buy jewelry, you have much more serious issues than whether to wear gold or not.

no. you do not need to change your religion. learn to love one another but find a way to connect together in other ways if not spiritually.

It would be interesting - it might hurt in some areas, it might help me to make some changes in other areas.  But most importantly is that I see myself the way God sees me and make the changes that bring a smile to his face.

Yes, they have every right to condemn such a law. What a person wants to wear is up to a person's personal choices, as long as it levels to decency. That country is violating rights to religious freedom. No one has any right to interfere into other people's faith's.

Man, anything Islam says turns out to be right, period. That's a regular fact we, Muslims, face on a daily basis. It makes my beliefs more stronger and gives me extra pride. Thank God I'm Muslim and my faith is trustworthy.

Every respectable person dresses modestly.Ethically no religion can claim to have autonomy over any particular dress code.Maybe we need to make every Christian,Muslim, Buddhist,etc,know they can wear any dress code as long as it is modestly acceptable to the public.This is not only of women alone.I think that men too dress in a way that captures women's admiration,but that was not discussed by the religious books.I think that is not fair enough because this competition between the opposite sexes of arousing one another's feelings is what is actually creating the problems of immodest dressing.

The approach to the presentation of Islamic beliefs and practices depends upon the addressee's religion and culture. A reference point of commonalty or contrast is useful. For example, the Christians believe in the "original sin"; the connotation is that a human being has the stigma of being born as a sinner and is dirty filthy by nature. What has a newborn done to be a sinner or to be a filthy person? Contrast this with the Islamic teaching that every human being is born in nature, meaning good with no stigma of any kind and, if left alone without any brain washing will do no wrong. Such a person has a natural ability to distinguish between right and wrong and his tendency is to do right. In the society which raises a person brain washed, many times when he reaches puberty he is all confused – good has become bad and bad has become good under the influence of the society. He was not dirty by birth but the society has made him dirty in beliefs and practices. for the rest of the page go to the web page i previded. good luck!

I wear a hijab everywhere, and most of the time, a burkha. Sometimes i get stares and weird questions, and that makes me feel different, but mostly, it's ok, and im respected by all the nonmuslims i know.

No.  Like Christianity, Islam has sects.  Some more radical than the others.\n\nWafa Sultan, a Syrian-American has dedicated her life to teaching us about the differences.  She risks her life to do it.
