What is the concept of Hur ?
Question:
I just have two questions, and I hope you will find the time to answer them, for these are things I've been confused about for quite some time now
1. what is the concept of a 'hur'? what exactly is a hur, and how does the whole misconception about suicide bombers being rewarded with '70 hurs' arise?
2. what is the correct code of dress for a muslim woman?
Response:
Hur means wide-eyed women. The Qur'an tells us that if we perform well in this worldly life God is going to provide us with another one where we will have all the good things we can dream of and much more. One of things men from the Arabian society really desired were wide-eyed women as wives. The Qur'an has provided a similar promise to women as well when it says that pure men would be for pure women and pure women would be for pure men.
If suicide bombers are doing their acts of devastation for the sake of the wide-eyed Hurs, in order them to get Hurs they will have to first justify their crime against humanity before their Lord. They will need to explain as to why they made a joke of God's religion by perpetrating worst crimes against humanity, claiming that they were doing them to please their good God.
The Qur'an mentions a code of conduct both for men and women when they interact with each other. Both have been asked to keep their gaze clean and to cover their private parts well, both with proper clothing and good intentions. Women have been furthermore asked to cover their chests and, in case they have beautified themselves, to cover their entire bodies except for their faces, hands, and feet.
