An Exegetic Analysis of Revelational Course of the Verses of Hijab

Hijab, despite its great importance and regarding the authenticity of chastity and self-control, cannot be authentic in Islam; since given lack of chastity, hijab will lose its effect. As made clear in the paper, the establishment of hijab in society is based on the theory of sexual outer limit on which the main goal is to create maximum privacy between men and women in all spheres of life, each being of its appropriate outer limit. On the basis of realities of life, one defines his/her outer limit; hijab is regarded as one of such outer limits for social interactions in the cases of two sexual places. The Exalted God forms a normative system in this descent, one of its most important norms is the value of a minimal communication with opposite sex as an ideal proposition, and hijab in this normative structure is just a piece of the puzzle not being central. The foundation of this normative structure lies in the consolidation of the spirit of spirituality. The practical commitment to this normative structure must start from the ruling class and, following it, other segments of the population also follow them; its approach is purely cultural and far from security tensions. In the model of Islamic engineering of hijab, men as the heads of families are responsible for managing and supervising it.
