Can anyone tell me when women started using head gears? Am I sounding a bit different today? I hope not but this question has been buzzing into my mind for some days.
So far I know and how I can guess, women around the globe wear it and of course these women belong to different nationalities/races/religions. Here, I would like to mention head gears are not only beautiful scarfs, it can be hat, orna (which is known in Indian-subcontinent), the end part of a sari and yes, here you can add if you have different types of it....please feel free to share.
I would like to say it has many purposes and it is a part of women-clothing. Though many people tend to think, it is only a religious object. Now, let me say about its purposes.
1. It is very useful in sunny and hot summer days. Once I had been in Dubai during summer. In the first day we went out to having lunch. Oh ..my..the sun was too vigorous, I couldn't but just put my 'orna' on my head. I gave some portion of it to my kid and felt bad not being able to share it with my hubby as it was not that much long!
2. In my country there is too much dust when we do not have rains. So, when I went out on foot ( I rarely do it), I need to cover my head with an orna.
3. It has a religious value, of course, but in my country no one pressurize me. And, I can say women from different religions wear it. So, here some women put orna on their head, some not.
But, my question is why people tend to think that head gears only belong to Muslims women? Have you never been an witnessed wearing this sort of clothing by women of another religions?
In my thinking it is a part of women clothing which has been using for many years back! And, I also know during rituals of every religions more or less women do cover their head/hair, am I right?

testing...
Thanks a lot, Misha. I read it.
Bet, read Sura Noor, In the Qura'an. You will find your answer.
Ah, now I got it. So, Ukraine absorbed these teachings from Orthodoxies that only used the PART of the Bible which is Matthew's. That is why they have their OWN teaching. A Christian should follow the word of God as a whole not as a part of it, as it is not considered complete. The Bible I know that I considered the most scientific book remains true from 3,000 years ago up to date. Sure Teacher, I can read some additional pieces of evidence to prove the authenticity of the Bible from our History and Science books. But other references are to support the scriptures so the present time will understand its truthfulness.
Thanks for those sites given. I will try to read it.
Btw, I have read only one church in the Bible, the church of God that is written for 11-14 verses.
P.S. I know atheist read the Bible more than those who claim they believe the book but proven otherwise. They should do that, how to go against the book without knowing its content.
Teacher, do you mean that 1575-85 http://www.dictionary.com/browse/orthodox word is the oldest branch of Christianity? and the word Catholic in the early of the 2nd century. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catholic_(term)
Because I have read the Bible. There is no slightest mention of orthodox and catholic there. Even the holy trinity isn't there.
Maybe they are using their own book.
Thanks, Tanya for informing us time to time. It seems I should read some myself to get a clear picture. Anyway what is pagan, yes, I heard about it but have no clear idea.
Risty, again you need to do paraphrasing....for your second part...sorry, dear!
Based on some studies our clothing speaks about us, yes it is superficial as a wolf can put on a sheep's clothing too. I have written a blog regarding that.
As for my experience, though clothing will alleviate interest of guys or somewhat provoking so men will get entice to do something filthy, there are rapist or maniacs whatever your clothing seems to show, covered or not. There are actors of lasciviousness that plays their role no matter how you looks like. I know better.
Risty, sis, thanks a lot. I got your point. Here, I can say who wear modest dress or a bit modest dress ( right now I am only thinking about women) they also get respect, its true. No, they do not get preferences to pay the bills first but I can see people's attitude towards them. You know, I am not only mentioning those extra coverings but if we think about normal modest dress worn by girls, ladies, it is also fine and they get at least good behavior. And, I must say who appear in a bit different way....and if they walk on foot/ busy market places where many people do visit, they will face/get bad words. Now, you have brought a new point, thanks! So, now I am interested to know what happens in other parts, do women get more respect if they wear modest clothes, I mean long trousers, skirts, long sleeved shirts, tops? But, I also interested to put this sentence that who want to bullies they let it out somehow, no matter a young girl wearing a nice dress or not, contradicts, maybe....lol. Most probably those are the worst! And, see, in our part we do not like to see our men in short trousers too.
