Do you aspire for a virgin? So, does everyone. However, when it comes to Muslim community this aspiration takes a new high. But what if this virginity is fake or artificial? As it happens in the case of Aisha Salim who is to marry a person from...

... wow.
I would just like to inform you of a few things. Weddings in Islam are impossibly beautiful. They are an important part of our religion, and speaking as a muslim girl, (can’t say woman yet, cos I’m 17) I think you should learn more about the religion, not cultures surrounding it, but the religion in it’s purity before you make a judgement. After all isn’t an informed judgement more sound than an uninformed one.
I would love to get married one day, but I know that if my husband truly believes in Allah (God), and the guidance he has sent, then he will treat me perfectly within my rights, as faith means you know also that other people have rights under God, and it is your duty as a creation of Al-Khaliq (God the creator), to honour the rights of all individuals for the sake of God. =] Just thought I should give you a heads up. For my information i reccomend the book ”From My Sisters’ Lips” by Naima Roberts.

This is just an answer to what is an unbelievable question found on Islam-QA.com. What people now do with regard to this matter is very far from Islam so the author of this article should have done some homework.
Is it permissible for the husband’s family to show the virginal blood?.
Praise be to Allaah.
Firstly:
This is a reprehensible tradition and an abhorrent action. It is not permissible for the husband to go along with his family in this matter or to agree to it in word or deed, for a number of reasons, including the following:
1.
This is one of the marital secrets that are to be kept. Whatever goes on between the spouses in their private relationship, it is not permissible for them to spread it among people or to tell anyone about it?
2.
This blood is not the sign that distinguishes between a decent woman and others, as is well known, therefore the whole exercise is pointless.
3.
If we assume that the husband discovers that his wife is not a virgin, then he is enjoined to conceal that fact and not disclose it to people. What his family are asking him to do is helping in haraam disclosure, not in concealment which is obligatory.
4.
Another of the evil effects of this reprehensible custom is causing anxiety and stress to both spouses, because the husband is rushed into breaking the hymen and the wife may not be ready on the first night, so he may cause her to bleed heavily and cause resentment in the marital relationship.
5.
This reprehensible tradition implicitly accuses the woman of immoral action, as they demand her to produce proof of her innocence.
6.
The least that may be said of this reprehensible tradition is that it is contrary to modesty, because the intimacy that occurs between the spouses should be concealed and it is not permissible to disclose it or announce it.
This reprehensible tradition should be prevented and fought against.
Shaykh ‘Ali Mahfooz (may Allaah have mercy on him) said:
One of the bad traditions is parading around the village with the bride’s chemise stained with virginal blood, and indeed the blood of the crime against this delicate organ on the part of that beast who does not remember that Allaah is watching him with regard to how he treats this poor woman at the most difficult of times. When they parade around with the chemise and when the hymen is broken they say words that would shame anyone who has any shred of humanity. This reprehensible innovation has died out among the rich and the middle classes, but it still remains and is treated as sacred among the poor and lower classes. It is one of the remnants of Jaahiliyyah. End quote.
Al-Ibdaa’ fi Madaar al-Ibtidaa’ (p. 265), Dar al-I’tisaam.
And Allaah knows best.

I might sound like a total outsider but there’s just one thing i want to say. Being a virgin or not is completely a girls choice, and we as males should respect her decisions. If you cant respect a females decisions...you cant respect the female. No offense intended to anyone.
Im sorry man but the principe of respect is to respect yourself. So if a female cant respect herself by not having sex before she is married that it is not earned by the males around her. You are using modern society to justify your explanation which isnt incorperated into the religon. What your saying is no matter what a females desicion is we must respect it. This is isnt true, if this were a conversation about female prostitution you would have a complete differant opinion, even though the women herself decided to do it.
Is this new Islam-hating web-site where Hindus try to teach Muslims their religion?
