Contrary to popular belief, modest dressing is no impediment to active participation in all kinds of sports. A few illustrations on this:











And it was not only Muslims who were capable of dressing up more and still engaging in sports:



A ladies tennis team from the 1920's:



Have a modest day insha'Allah

I know this is so so wrong.... and forgive me if i offend but is it me, or do those women floating down the wall remind you of dementors???

Everything else is top stuff though lol!

[Mullah_Habib_uDeen]

lol awesome !

Hard to lower my gaze seeing such ninjabis !

[baradar_jackson]

Mashallah.

I don't care what the purpose; the presence of Fatmeh commandos is a good thing.

So I applaud habib e najjar for finding this excuse to post their pictures.

Also I want to note how big of an issue this is by citing this news item:

Pearce, Nick. "London 2012 Olympics: badminton chiefs defend women’s dress ruling on grounds of 'style.'" The Telegraph (London), 5 May 2011. http://www.telegraph...s-of-style.html

It's like what the Honorable Position of Leadership said: the issue of suppressing modest dress is not even an ideological issue. It is not even about repressing Islam. Modesty in dress is an affront to the essence of liberal capitalist culture and economics. And because hijab is the absolute apex of modesty, then it must be repressed.

Here is an Urdu song about the Honorable Position. (Fatmeh commandos also make their graceful presence in this video)

Yep. All it takes is a little creativity and understanding of what proper physical hijab would entail (including where and in view of whom you engage in sporty stuff).
YA ALI!

Heh. Why do you think they need to be extra fit? Making delicacies like kale pache and paaya requires strength of body and mind.

On a serious note, a lot of muslim girls/females prefer not to engage in sports because they are not aware of hijabi ways of engaging in sport. This was just a few illustrations that being properly covered up is no hindrance to physical activity.

Their physical hijab is great...but I think the social hijab tells us that women really should not be hanging from buildings..

I think the ninjabi commandos serve a propaganda purpose more than actual military purposes. In the real world, special forces need to be extremely physically tough and training is very challenging. And you don't need many speical forces units, so its not a question of shortage of manpower. I would rather have women trained in the national guard and naturally, in war-factory service. So they could make bombs while the men fought, then, as the enemy closed in they would be the last ditch defence to inflict as many casualties as possible.

Come to think of it, the whole ninjabi unit made this thread possible, and thus allows pro-Islamic people to rebut critics who say that hijab is oppressive. Aha, I have hit on the one important purpose of this unit.

Yall take what I say too seriously.

@kingpomba
1) "Fatmeh commandos" is a nickname for Iranian policewomen. It's a pejorative term, but I use it in a positive way.
2) These are policewomen, not soldiers (although, in Iran the police is part of the Armed Forces).

@titumir
According to Imam Khomeini's ruling, in a situation where one's home is under military offense, it becomes wajib upon every mukallaf to engage in defence.

And I believe (although I am not 100 percent sure) he also stated that it is wajib for every mukallaf to receive some sort of military training or instruction. (This is why in Iranian high schools there is a class called "Defence Preparation").

So that's why there are women in the military apparatus.

This doesn't mean that if a war starts, Iran will be sending women to the trenches. During the eight-year Imposed War, the jobs that female military personnel performed were: frontline nurses, truck drivers, intelligence officers, reservists etc. Of course, there were times when the Iraqis would initiate fire and due to a lack of men on the front line, women would be forced into combat (and many were martyred; one of the most well-known was Shaheeda Shahnaz Haji Shah), but these situations were avoided as much as was possible.

It is said when the mother of Wahab ibn Abu Wahab witnessed her son getting martyred on the battlefield in Kerbala that she said "Allah! Thank you for saving my honour through my son's martyrdom before the Imam" then turned to the Kufians, picked up a stout candle(or according to other accounts, a tent post) and charged the enemies, sending two of them to hell. Upon seeing this the Imam(as) sent two of his companions to bring her back. When she stood before him, he said to her, "O bondmaid of Allah! Women are not allowed to go to war. Sit down, I assure you that you and your son will be with my grandfather in Paradise."

[Ali Bosnia]

I can definitely see the logic as to why women are not allowed on the frontlines and I can also see the logic to Imam Khomeini's ruling in regards to the home being under attack.

It's great to see sisters being offered training and having the ability to defend themselves incase a situation like that were to arise. Unfortunately for the women in my country they didn't have that opportunity. After their men were killed off they didn't stand no chance and were therefore subjected to terrible experiences (May Allah ease their suffering) and may such an event never again be repeated.
