Question for Christian members

[wel_mel_2]

Bismillah:

Where does it say in the Qur'an that items 1-3 which Reep posted are excluded?

ok here is what the Qur'an said:

(1) a parent sees a child naked

The Qur’an said: chapter 24 verse 31 And say to the believing women that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty; that they should not display their beauty and ornaments except what (must ordinarily) appear thereof; that they should draw their veils over their bosoms and <b>not display their beauty except to </b> their husbands, their fathers, their husband's fathers, <b>their sons</b>,
<b>their husbands' sons
,</b> their brothers or their brothers' sons, or their sisters' sons, or their women, or the slaves whom their right hands possess, or male servants free of physical needs, <b>or small children who have no sense of the shame of sex</b>;
and that they should not strike their feet in order to draw attention to their hidden ornaments. And O ye Believers! turn ye all together towards Allah, that ye may attain Bliss.


since women could display her beauty infront of her sons and her husband's sons, then naturally she can also as a parent to clean or take shower for her young child in which will require for him to take off his or her garments.

(2) a husband sees his wife naked

in the Qur’an chapter 2 Verse 187 Allah describes the mutual relationship between spouses as <b>“women are men’s cloths and men are women’s cloths. </b>


You may ask what clothes have to do with husbands and wives relationships. Well Clothes protect us from heat, cold, sun, dust etc… similarly <b>spouses are protectors of each other.</b>


Clothes also <b>cover our defects and private parts. </b> Similarly spouses know each other’s defects and are suppose to cover these defects and not to go around saying to anyone the weaknesses of their spouses.


Also clothes <b>add to the beauty and charm of a person</b>, similarly spouses add to each other’s beauty and charm, Phisically, they should be best dressed for each other and not for ceremonies only. For example, men are supposed to be sloppily dressed at home and vice versa.


And last but not list, <b>cothes are the closest to our body, Similarly spouses are closest to each other and know each other’s secrets. They are GARMENTS to each others. Hope you understand this point.</b>

(3) a doctor sees his patient naked

The Qur’an clearly state that <b>we should seek the advise of an expert if we do not know.</b> And since doctors are expert in the field of medicine, then there should be no problem if they ask us to take off our garments for check up or for surgery for example. Although it is preferable for a female patient to seek a female doctor advise but that is if available, same sex health care providers are encouraged but if not available and in life saving situations there should be no problem the Qur’an said: <b>ask the people who knows best in particular field, or ask the people who have knowledge</b>. I don’t have the reference now of this verse but I could provided insha’Allah if neccery for your research.


Salam.


Wael.
