...Whatsoever the Messenger giveth to thee, taketh; whatever he forbideth thee, giveth over.

al-Qur'n al-Hakm: LIX (Srah al-Hashr), 7 ***

O Children of Adam! We have revealed unto thee [to maketh use of] a garment to cover thy shameful parts, and [We have revealed unto thee to maketh use of] feathers [for beautification]; and the Garment of the God-vigilant [which remindeth of God]that is better; that is [from] one of the Symbols of God; haply they will remembereth [God]. al-Qur'n al-Hakm: VII (Srah al-Aarf), 26 *** Jbir ibn Abdu'l-Lh al-Ansr ( )heard the Prophet ( )say: ...Whosoever loveth a people shall be resurrected with them, and whosoever loveth the deed of a people shall be reckoned with that deed. Bihr al-Anwr, volume LXV, Muhammad Bqir al-Majlis *** Abdu'l-Lh ibn Umar heard the Prophet ( )say: Whosoever imitates any people [in clothing] shall be reckoned as one of them. Hadth number 4020, book XXII: Kitb al-Libs, Sunan Ab Dwd (c.817c.888 CE) *** It has been claimed that it is up to Religion to prove itself in the face of the utmost ill-will, that religion is made for man, that it must therefore adapt itself to his needs, and that through its failure to do so it has become bankrupt. One might as well say that the alphabet has become bankrupt in a class where the pupils are determined not to learn it; with this kind of infralogic one might declare that the law is made for honest people who are pleased to conform to it and that a new law required for the others, a law adapted to the needs of their maliciousness and rejuvenated in conformity with their propensity for crime.
