Proper Jewish Modesty (The Hijab)
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
In The Name of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful ,
The majority of Christians or even Jews they don't actually know that the Hijab which is modest clothing including the head cover is commanded in the Bible with a harsh punishment in this worldly life by getting womens head shaven to feel shame for the lady who doesn't cover herself.
In the Noble Qur'an the Hijab is of-course mentioned too but the difference is that the Noble Qur'an didn't state a worldly punishment for the women who doesn't wear the Hijab as it's left for the Muslim women because it's between them and Allah also the difference in the reasons:
-According to the Bible it's because women are "not in the Image of God while men are!!" and because women are created only for the "Glory of the man!!"
-While in the Noble Qur'an one of the main reasons is to be identified as a chaste women who doesn't want to be annoyed by any stranger as they keep their beauty for themselves and their families while it also speaks to men commanding them to lower their gaze and also to be modest!

Here is the verses:
[From the Bible - New Testament]
[1 Corinthians 11]:
states in verses from 5 to 9 about women in Christianity :
5. But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven.
6. For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.
7. For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, for as much as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man.
8. For the man is not of the woman: but the woman of the man.
9. Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man.

[From the Noble Qur'an]
[The Noble Qur'an Chapter 33 Verse 59]
O Prophet! Tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to draw their cloaks round them (when they go abroad). That will be better, so that they may be recognised and not annoyed. Allah is ever Forgiving, Merciful. (59)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[The Noble Qur'an Chapter 24 Verse 30-31]
(O Mohammed) Tell the believing men to lower their gaze and be modest. That is purer for them. Lo! Allah is aware of what they do. (30) And say to the believing women that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty; that they should not display their beauty except what (ordinarily) appear thereof; that they should draw their veils over their bosoms and not display their beauty (31)
So Muslim women are following the Virgin Mary (May the peace of Allah be upon her) more than anyone else!!
