ISLAM IS BEAUTY


This is my honest opinion. Bagi saya, pengantin pakai macam gambar atas ni lagi cantik daripada pengantin yang pakai mekap tebal, bulu mata palsu, baju ketat, tudung singkat, tabarruj sini sana segala bagai. 

Yeah, old folks say, "beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder". But true beauty lies in the heart of the beholder. This is because our eyes can tell lies. Why are we 'prohibited' to "judge a book by its cover"? Hey look. A dull, lame book cover does not tell a story. It might give a negative impression though, but it would be a massive shame if we miss out a great story it possibly might have, right? I'll give you another analogy.

Remember those times when you get loads of presents for your birthday? Some of those presents might have remarkably beautiful wrapping paper covering it, but (sometimes) when you open the present, all you get is disappointment for expecting something more than what is rewarded. Other times, you get presents wrapped in cheap wrapping paper, but you become all hysteric the first time you see what was inside.

The same goes with beauty. Rasulullah portrayed beauty in his character, making people around him then and now to love his presence on earth. He loved his followers regardless on their appearances. So why should we be so prejudice when it comes to judging someones appearances and crossing out what matters most, which is the practice of virtuemorality and manners?

Just because some believing muslimah wears hijab lowered down their chest, don't wear make up outside, wear jubah-jubah (abaya), don't do pre-marital marriage whatsoever, doesn't make them "makcikmakcik" or people of prehistory. Instead it highers their ranks and makes them among the most beautiful women on earth!

Afterall, "beauty is only skin deep" and 

"Beauty without virtue is like a rose without scent."
