Glory to God, peace on earth, good will to all!
Sorry to barge in on you guys like this :D
Not that it counts, but here's my say...
Whether a woman is decked out in hijab or is strutting the nude beaches in nothing but tanning lotion, she deserves to be treated as a person. Like you said, Wael, <i>"nature"</i> itself attaches worth to women (& men). The simple fact that a catwalk model & a Muslimah belong to the species Homo Sapiens earns them both the right to be honoured & respected regardless of how they dress. We ought to be concerned with our own hearts & let Allah (SWT) judge the hearts of others. The minute we can see a half-naked man or woman & appreciate their bodies as belonging to the crown of Allah's (SWT) creation, rather than lust over a perceived sexual object, we know we've reached a high level of purity.
God bless.
