The Islam religion always calls for people to be modest and humble in both their dressing and the way they behave. Their traditional way of dressing greatly emphasizes these values. They come in different designs and colours which vary throughout the Muslim world. In relation to this, the following is information concerning modest Islamic clothing.

There are several requirements which must be met for both Islamic men and women. To start with, according to their holy teachings, they believe that women are supposed to cover their entire body. The only parts which should be left out are the hands and face which explains the long robes worn by these women and their thick texture to prevent visibility.

One can put on clothes which cover their whole body but they become indecent and unacceptable in the event that they are very tight. They are not supposed to portray the outline of their bodies. This means that they should be very loose for both men and women hence skin tights and other similar clothes are forbidden.

All Muslims are encouraged to embrace who they are. This means that they are supposed to be proud of their religion and identity. At no one time are they allowed to imitate the ways of life of people from other faiths around them. Men are advised to dress as men and women not to wear mens clothes. This is the reason as to why men are forbidden from wearing gold and silk because they are considered feminine.

There are no many shops to access these clothes in the non-Muslim countries. Most people purchase theirs when they go home visiting in the Muslim countries. Also, due to the fact that these designs are not complicated, some sew their clothes just in the comfort of their homes. Online shopping is also coming up as an alternative especially to those who find it hard to travel or sew one of their own.

Although the choice of colour does not really matter, most Islam communities prefer to dress in very cool colours which do not attract any type of attention. Flashy colours and designs are not a common occurrence due to the fact that they are trying to be as cool and conservative as possible; uniformity is a style that is valued in this religion and black in this case does it for them.

Many people tend to wonder whether these people feel extremely hot during the day while they are all covered up like that. An answer to this is that the fact that the clothes are free flowing makes a lot of air to flow through them hence cooling temperatures. To add on to that, they get used to it with time.

In summary of the above, Islam has set minimum standards for personal decency, which is reflected in the manner in which they dress. While this may appear to be very conservative and out of date for some people, for this community it is nothing but total pride. They consider this tradition to be quite epic and timeless.
