Abstract

Hijab, jilbab or khimar known as a piece of garment which usually worn by Muslim women in order to obey their God. It becomes a symbol that shows their identity. Besides, Hijab has a particular meaning according to multiple perspectives which resulted variant styles and types of hijab in one community, with or without syari’ah compliance. Fashion trends also plays the role in modifying women attire and the issue about this seems more complicated since the guidelines were avoided. This paper will goes through the commentaries of Qur’an to examine the requirements of proper women attire as mentioned specifically on ayat al-hijab. It results that Qur’an already put some guidelines on proper attire for Muslim women such as: the garments used to cover body parts is must be long, wide and thick enough. Not being overdressed also included as a requirement. Hijab, jilbab atau khimar dikenal sebagai selembar pakaian yang biasanya digunakan wanita muslimah untuk memenuhi perintah Tuhannya, Penggunaan jilbab menjadi symbol yang menunjukkan identitas mereka. Selain itu, jilbab memiliki arti tertentu sesuai dengan berbagai perspektif yang menghasilkan varian gaya dan jenis jilbab di satu komunitas, dengan atau tanpa kepatuhan syari‟ah. Tren mode juga berperan dalam memodifikasi pakaian wanita dan wacana tentang jilbab sebagai mode busana ini tampaknya lebih rumit karena pedoman tersebut dihindari. Tulisan ini akan membahas komentar Alquran untuk memeriksa persyaratan pakaian wanita yang tepat seperti yang disebutkan secara khusus tentang ayat al-hijab. Hasilnya, Al Qur‟an sudah menorehkan beberapa panduan tentang pakaian yang tepat untuk wanita Muslim seperti: pakaian yang digunakan untuk menutupi bagian tubuh harus panjang, lebar dan cukup tebal. Tidak berlebihan dalam berhias juga termasuk sebagai persyaratan normative berpakaian sesuai syariat.
