Umthombo: INKANUKO YOSILISA, IFOMU LWESIFAZANE KANYE NOBUKSO OKWENJONGO

U-Allah ﷻ uyazisa kwiKur’an eNgcwele: Okwenziwe kwaba kuhle esintwini wuthando lwezifiso zabesifazane nenzalo, yezinqwaba eziqoqiwe zegolide nesiliva, yamahhashi anegama, izinkomo namasimu. [3:14]

Nakuba izinto ezinjalo kwezinye izindawo kukhulunywa ngazo kahle eQur’an, njengezibusiso okufanele abantu babonge ngazo, lapha kukhulunywa ngazo eziyengayo ngezinto amadoda azikhanukayo, ukufisa nokufisa.

Ngokungamangalisi, abesifazane abahamba phambili ohlwini. Leli qiniso lizwakala kakhulu ku-hadith lapho uMprofethi ﷺ azisa khona: ‘Angizange ngihambe ngemva kwami ukunyundela okulimaza kakhulu amadoda kunabesifazane.’1 Kuyisixwayiso ukuthi isiwula kuphela noma a abangamesabi uNkulunkulu ungathanda ukunganaki noma ukuthatha kancane. Enye hadith ithi: ‘Umhlaba uluhlaza futhi umnandi futhi u-Allah ukubeke kuwo njengabagcini ukuze ubone ukuthi uziphatha kanjani. Ngakho qaphelani izwe futhi nixwaye abesifazane; okokuqala ukunyundela kubantwana bakwa-Israyeli kwakuphathelene nabesifazane.’2

Uma uphuzo oludakayo luphula imithetho yokuthi abantu baziphathe ngendlela abebengeke baziphathe ngayo uma bengaphuzile., khona-ke udeveli unamandla nakakhulu ekususeni isizotha, imingcele kanye nezithiyo phakathi kobulili. Wathi uMprofethi ﷺ: ‘Umuntu wesifazane ‘awu;njalo uma ephuma, usathane uyamhlobisa.’3

Igama ‘awu, kuvame ukuhunyushwa esiNgisini ngokuthi ‘nakedness’, kungase futhi kusho ubuthakathaka, ukuba sengozini noma into engafanele nengahloniphi.4 Abesifazane bathathwa njengabanjalo ‘awu ngenxa yokuthanda kwabo. E-Islam, ifomu lesifazane - elifiselekayo, okukhangayo nokuvusa inkanuko ekusithekeni kwekhaya lomshado - akufanele kwenziwe kubonakale kanjalo emphakathini. Akukhona nje ukubuka kwabesilisa okunezinjongo ezilulazayo noma ezisongela abesifazane; ngesinye isikhathi abanye besifazane badinga ukonga ebuntwini babo obungalawuleki.

Kunjalo, emhlabeni wethu we-e-ugcwele isono, izithombe zocansi kanye nokwenza ucansi ngisho nezingane, ukuhlakanipha okunjalo okwembulwe akunakwenzeka ukuba kwamukelwe ngokukhululeka obekungakwenza esikhathini esingekude kangako. Imibono yesizotha, ukuhlonipheka noma ukuhlonipheka mayelana nendlela ubulili okufanele buhlanganyele ngayo kuyinto engajwayelekile kulokho okugqugquzelwa ngabathengi., isiko lokunukubezwa ngokocansi. Ukusikisela ngisho, njengoba kwenza Islam, ukuthi kungase kube nendlela enesizotha noma ehloniphekile yokuba ‘yintokazi’ (futhi, kunjalo, 'umnumzane') kuwukugcona noma ukweyisa umphakathi ovame ukungagxeki: abanye bangase ngisho bamemeze kabi. Ngike ngabhala ngaphambilini mayelana nokusebenzisana kobulili besimanje ku Intshebe, Ama-Hijab & Ulimi Lomzimba: Ubudlelwano Bobulili, ngakho-ke ngizozivalela kulezi zinkulumo ezimbalwa:

Izimiso zokuthobeka, ukuzibamba nokuhlonipha sekuyisikhathi eside kwabhalwa ngaphandle kwemikhuba yethu yezenhlalo kanye nokunye, futhi lokhu kwakuzothinta isimo sengqondo samaSulumane. I hadith eyodwa ithi: ‘Isizotha nokholo kubangane ababili abaseduze; uma omunye wabo esuswa, omunye uyalandela.’5 Ngempela, njengoba amaSulumane ngokwawo eqala ukuxegisa lezi zimiso, noma bayekethise ngethemba lokwamukelwa etafuleni lemibono ekhululekile, singabona mhlawumbe lapho isiholele khona abanye, lapho nathi ebesingaya khona?

Akuyona nje i-hijab noma i-niqab esikhuluma ngayo. Ijula kakhulu kunalokho. Kumayelana nokungaphezulu nje kwangaphandle. Kumayelana nendlela umuntu aziphatha ngayo; kumayelana nendlela umuntu azithwala ngayo; yokuthi umuntu uwubeka kanjani umphefumulo wakhe kobobulili obuhlukile. Ekugcineni, imayelana nobumsulwa benhliziyo kanye nokunamathela kwayo eNkosini yayo.

U-Allah ﷻ uyala: Tshela abakholwayo amadoda ukuthi behlise amehlo abo futhi baqaphe ubuzoni babo. Kuyoba njalo okuhlanzekile kubo. Ngokuba uAllah Uyakwazi abakwenzayo.[24:30]. Ecaphuna leli vesi, U-Ibn al-Qayyim waphawula:

‘UAllah wabeka inhlanzeko ngemva kokwehlisa iso lomuntu nokuqapha izitho zangasese. Kungakho ukuvimbela ukugqolozela kokunqatshelwe kudinga izinzuzo ezintathu zokubaluleka okukhulu nokubaluleka okukhulu. Okokuqala, [abanakho] ubumnandi nenjabulo yokukholwa emnandi kakhulu, kumnandi noma kumnandi kunalokhu ukugqolozela kwasala, noma kugwenywe, ngenxa kaAllah. Ngempela, oshiya into ngenxa kaAllah, Uyothatha indawo yawo ngokungcono kunawo.6 Umphefumulo ukhangwa ngokujulile ngokubuka izimo ezinhle. Iso liyinhloli yenhliziyo, futhi ithumela inhloli yayo ukuthi ibone ukuthi kukhonani. Uma iso likwazisa ngokuthile likuthola kukhanga futhi lilihle, ishukumiseleka ukuba ikufise ... Noma ubani ovumela amehlo akhe ukuba azulazule uyohlale ezisola. Ngoba ukubuka kuveza uthando, eqala ngokuthi inhliziyo ibe nokunamathiselwe ('Alaqah) kulokho okubonwayo futhi. Njengoba iqinisa, kuba ukulangazelela okukhulu (imbangela); inhliziyo manje ibisigajwe ngokungenathemba. Ukukhula okwengeziwe, kuba ukuthatheka (gharam); inamathela enhliziyweni njengomtshelekisi (gharim) unamathela kumkweleti wakhe (gharimah) angahlukani kuye. Ukukhula ngamandla, namanje, kuba uthando oluvuthayo (‘ishq); uthando oludlulele. Bese kuba uthando oluvuthayo (shaghaf); uthando olufika entanjeni yenhliziyo lungene kuyo. Ukuqinisa ngokuqhubekayo, kuba uthando olukhonzayo (tatayyum) … inhliziyo iba yisigqila [okhonzayo] lokho okungafanele ukugqilazwa ngakho. Futhi konke lokhu kungenxa yokubuka okulimazayo.’7

Yiyeke eceleni inkulumo-mpikiswano yokuthi ngabe umthwalo omkhulu ungowokugqoka ngesizotha kwabesifazane, noma amadoda ehlisa amehlo. Akungabazeki ukuthi esimweni sanamuhla kuwela phezu kwamadoda ukuba abheke phansi futhi agweme inkanuko., ukubuka okungekho emthethweni nokulimazayo.

U-Shaykh Jaleel Akhoon usanda kuphawula ukuthi izono zivame ukushiya ibala elimnyama enhliziyweni, lokho kungahlanzwa ngesenzo sokuzisola nokuphenduka. Kodwa uma inhliziyo ithunjelwe entweni yothando lwayo; bagqilazwe yikho 'ishq, khona-ke lokhu kubi kunesono ‘esivamile’. Ngoba inhliziyo ayingcolisiwe nje noma ibe mnyama, wagcizelela; ihlanekezelwe. Lokhu kunama-echos athile ka-Ibn al-Qayyim lapho esho: ‘Abathandi abaningi abanothando bazovuma ukuthi abanayo nhlobo indawo ezinhliziyweni zabo ngaphandle kothando lwabo oluvuthayo.. Kunalokho, bavumela uthando lwabo oluvuthayo lunqobe ngokuphelele inhliziyo yabo, ngaleyo ndlela abe umkhulekeli oshisekayo walo ... Akukho ukuqhathanisa phakathi kokulimala kwalolu daba olubi kanye nomonakalo odalwa ukuziphatha kabi ngokobulili. (fahisah). Ngoba lesi sono sikhulu kulowo osenzayo, kodwa ububi balokhu 'ishq elokukhonza izithombe (shirk).

Ikhambi, Kusho uShaykh Jaleel, ukuthi ngokushesha nje lapho inhliziyo ilingwa yilokho okungafanele ikubhekisise, omunye uthatha izintambo ekubukeni futhi uyakuphambukisa haram noma eziyingozi. Awukho umzamo ongenziwa ekwenzeni kanjalo, funa ukubuka okungavunyelwe kufihle ubuthi bayo enhliziyweni, ukuyibangela ukulimala okungenakulungiseka, usizi nokuhlushwa.
