Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia – A recent segment on Hot FM’s popular program, "Solusi Amin Idris," has brought to the forefront a significant religious discussion concerning the Islamic obligation of wearing the hijab. During the broadcast, speaker Amin Idris addressed the common declaration by some Muslim women, "I am not ready to wear the hijab yet," providing a clear Islamic perspective. Idris unequivocally stated that the act of covering the 'aurat'—the parts of the body that must be concealed in Islam—is a mandatory religious duty, drawing a parallel to the five daily prayers. "Can we say, 'I will pray when I am ready'?” Idris questioned, highlighting that both prayer and covering the 'aurat' are fundamental obligations that do not permit postponement based on personal readiness. He further clarified, "Just as it is not permissible for prayer, it is also not permissible for covering the 'aurat'." For those grappling with the commitment, Idris offered a compassionate yet firm alternative. He advised individuals to respond to inquiries about wearing the hijab by saying, "Pray that I will wear the hijab." He explained that this response serves a dual purpose: it encourages others to make supplications for the individual and publicly signifies one's active intention and effort towards fulfilling the religious command. Idris concluded by emphasizing that divine guidance, or 'hidayah,' is not a passive gift to be awaited but rather an active pursuit, stating, "Hidayah must be sought." The segment aimed to provide clarity and encouragement, fostering a proactive approach to religious observance within the community.
