Talk:Intimate parts in Islam

Comments

The article needs citations and it should represent the non-hijabi point of view, instead of claiming the hadith viewpoint without reference. — Emiellaiendiay 22:42, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

This article contain some false information and does not represent a wide point of view of the Muslim World. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Salah-Q (talk • contribs) 20:06, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

Why do these people insane beliefs? :( —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.209.150.46 (talk) 08:07, 23 August 2009 (UTC)

"Most Muslims hold that entire body of the woman, except her face and hands, is part of her awrah, so those are the parts of her body that must be covered during prayer and in public settings.[25][26][27] Most Salafi Muslims believe that a woman's awrah in front of unrelated men is her entire body including her face and hands.[28] [29][30][31][32][33][34]"

Most of these refs are deleted (scribd.com) or dead links. Noloop (talk) 23:52, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

Some of the information on this page is completely false, and I suggest that individuals who feel that they are knowledgeable enough to speak on behalf of Islam and Muslims around the world make sure that they get their facts right before doing so. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.146.99.122 (talk) 19:04, 4 August 2010 (UTC)

Inconsistent capitalization

Should it be spelt 'Awrah' or 'awrah'? Consistency would be an improvement. Junuxx (talk) 18:35, 14 September 2010 (UTC)

I have gone ahead and changed all occurences to italic and lower case (except at the start of a sentence of course). Junuxx (talk) 18:58, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

Excessive Arabic terminology

This is not a primer in Arabic language, but an English-language encyclopedia. I suggest we merge this article with Intimate parts or rename it to Intimate parts (Islam). --Uncle Ed (talk) 19:28, 16 May 2012 (UTC)

• I waited 6 days, and no one objected, so I went ahead and made the move. Peter and Roscelese, if you're following me around the wiki, please comment on this.
• My aim was to make this more about how Muslims feel the human body's intimate parts must be treated (e.g., covered from improper viewing by others) - and less of an exhaustive treatise on all the meanings of the foreign language term Awrah. We have Wiktionary for definitions. --Uncle Ed (talk) 20:00, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

In my opinion, 'Awrah' is a technical word and it is better to leave it untranslated, rather than translating it to 'intimate parts' سعید رحیمی (talk) 02:03, 12 April 2013 (UTC)

singing in islam

This section is contradictory. FIRST off it says women AND men can sing in Islam. Then gives an example of this - at a festival. Pakistan has a national anthem which is sung by women e.g. women cricketers. Clearly there are many other women that sing in Islamic countries. YET someone has added some unreferenced bits after saying women should not sing. There is nothing written about men singing with an alluring or attractive voice? Does that same proscription NOT also apply to men?? It does with clothing and sumptuary laws apply also to men - not to wear clothing that enflames passion outside of certain circumstances. This needs to be better written as at the moment there is pointing to a random person's individual opinion and not a islamic scholar's well grounded basis on the quran or hadith. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.115.204.102 (talk) 17:05, 12 November 2019 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Aurat (word)

The terms "Aurat", "Arvad", "Avret", and "Awrath" may refer to: Women of Asian religious or cultural descent and identity.

Self nomination for AFD since article copy pasted to Draft:Aurat for incubation because IMHO current article title Aurat (word) is misleading and confusing leading to western systemic bias and stifling the article growth. Please find Detail reason at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Aurat (word)

I invite project members to review current and potential sourcing and weigh in on the AfD discussion. Thanks! Bookku (talk) 03:05, 10 June 2020 (UTC)

Disambiguation of Aurat (Malaysian and Indonesian meaning)

Hi,

@ Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Aurat (word) I had requested User Austronesier to take initiative in disambiguating Indonesian /Malaysian sense of word Aurat. But may be he is focused somewhere else I am doing my third attempt of disambiguating in good faith. Probably I am not well versed enough in confusing unfriendly disambiguation rules, Please feel free to revert changes made by me in good faith. If I make mistakes I will invite more people to help me out in this task.

Steps taken up til now

• Created and Redirected Aurat ('awrah) & Aurat (awrah) to Intimate parts in Islam

• Proposed / next steps
  • Adding info about Malaysian and Indonesian usage in Etymology section
  • Attempting hat note templates explaining Aurat ('awrah) & Aurat (awrah) pages are redirected to Intimate parts in Islam and to see Aurat (disambiguation) for other usage.

Just for information @PamD:, @Austronesier:

awrah awrat usage as woman

@Solavirum:

By the way Intimate parts in Islam#Etymology section has following information (not properly cited) but perhaps it exists (and not added by me so some one else to reaching to that info from somewhere).

In Persian and Kurdish as well as Urdu, the word 'awrat (Persian: عورت‎) derived from the Arabic 'awrah, had been used widely to mean "woman"

Traditionally the word 'awrat, alongside the word za'ifeh (which derives from Arabic ḍa'īf (ضعيف), meaning weak) has been associated with femininity and women who lived under the protection of a man. In modern-day Iran, using the two words ( 'awrah and za'ifah) to refer to women is uncommon and is considered sexist language. It is considered sexist but likely to be there which needs further confirmatory discussion.

In Turkish, avrat is an often derogatory term for 'woman' or 'wife' This sentence is un-referenced but some one seems to have added.

Perhaps this point need to have discussion and disambiguation for use of word as Aurat (female human entity)

For information @Staszek Lem:

Bookku (talk) 11:48, 25 June 2020 (UTC)

Some of above mentioned info seems to be added by probably by Malay user Idris Fatih in 2009 and about Turkish by user Universal Life in 2011

Just for info and record Bookku (talk) 08:07, 26 June 2020 (UTC)

'Afrat' in 'Sorani Kurdish'

Came across two mentions , - though wikipedia would need better reference level of word 'afrat', seems is in use in sorani Kurdish.

Hat note update

Hat note as following is added

"'awrah (Arabic) and Aurat (Malaysian and Indonesian nomenclature for Intimate parts in Islam)" redirects here. For Aurat (Women of India, Pakistan, Sorani Kurdish (Afrat), Azeri (arvad) ), see Aurats. For Aurat (Disambiguation), see Aurat.

At some point of time in future if common sense prevails and article title Aurat gets allotted to Aurat (Women of India, Pakistan, Sorani Kurdish (Afrat), Azeri (arvad) ) hat note can be improved to better common sense version like below.

"'awrah (Arabic) and Aurat (Malaysian and Indonesian nomenclature for Intimate parts in Islam)" redirects here. For Aurat (Women of India, Pakistan, Sorani Kurdish (Afrat), Azeri (arvad) ), see Aurat. For other uses of Aurat, see Aurat (Disambiguation).

@R'n'B:, issue of hatnote is already mentioned at talk page. If you know the topic you can be the best person to improve and help out the hatnote. Thanks Bookku (talk) 10:56, 16 July 2020 (UTC)

@Bookku: Actually, I know nothing at all about the topic, but I do know how to use the {{redirect}} template. The simplest format is {{Redirect|Title}}, where "Title" is the title of a Wikipedia page that is a redirect to the article on which the template appears. What you have written above ("'awrah (Arabic) and Aurat (Malaysian and Indonesian nomenclature for Intimate parts in Islam)") is not the title of any Wikipedia page. Please see Template:Redirect/doc for additional details. --R'n'B (call me Russ) 19:51, 16 July 2020 (UTC)

@R'n'B: Thanks now I am partially understanding " 'the' curator's dilemma", since you are already here, pl. see if you can help understand and solve it further.

1) Is it safe to assume there is no 'curator side' issue @ 2nd part " For Aurat (Women of India, Pakistan, Sorani Kurdish (Afrat), Azeri (arvad) ), see Aurats. For Aurat (Disambiguation), see Aurat. "

2) For first part is it ok if we use Template:Redirect2 and create redirectional title Aurat (Malaysian and Indonesian language) for second redirect. 'awrah already exists for first redirect. - Or some one will take objection saying there is no 'single language' called (Malaysian and Indonesian language)

I foresee another dilemma at other article because article Aurats will be receiving multiple redirects and I don't see any hatnote template for more than 2 redirects. But this dilemma can be discussed at Wikipedia talk:Hatnote later.

As of now your answer to point no 2 is likely help clear the way a little bit so awaiting for the same.

Thanks and regards

@Wbm1058: If you have changed hat notes after knowing all nuances then I would have no arguments, but sorry, as of now I am not sure that the changes you made are after full understanding nuances from all sides and that your changes are accurate enough?

Is haste really important to not wait longer enough for more discussions to happen is for you to decide. Thanks, and best wishes Bookku (talk) 13:24, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

"Haste" happens when errors are made resulting in untruthful hatnotes that raise red flags on patrols. These errors need to be promptly fixed. If you can fix them in a way that doesn't cause errors, I won't bother you. Rule #1: When you say that Aurat (Malaysian and Indonesian nomenclature for Intimate parts in Islam) redirects to here, make sure that Aurat (Malaysian and Indonesian nomenclature for Intimate parts in Islam) literally redirects to here, and is not a red link. wbm1058 (talk) 14:05, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

Such loosely related redirects from other languages should not even exist in the first place; see WP:RFOREIGN. --HyperGaruda (talk) 04:02, 9 August 2020 (UTC)

Awrat

• 19:40, 22 May 2012 Ed Poor moved page Awrah to Intimate parts (Islam) (The term awrah is not familiar to most English speakers)

If the word is actually supposed to be Awrah, then why does Awrat redirect to here? Is "awrat" a misspelling of "awrah"? wbm1058 (talk) 14:05, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

Both are correct transliterations of the same Arabic word. Depending on the romanisation scheme, of which there are multiple for Arabic, some transliterate the final letter tāʼ marbūṭah as "h" or as "t". --HyperGaruda (talk) 03:56, 9 August 2020 (UTC)

Requesting small help

Hello many greetings,
