Thats why we conducted this programme because we want to approach them,&#8221; Nurwahidah Jamil, who is the assistant programme manager told IIUMToday.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, a number of activities such as Article Corner, Fashion in Islam, Tazkirah and Demonstration, Muslimah Compliance Sales, Lucky Draw and Q &amp; A box have been conducted by Annisa Bureau of i_Masjid with the objective to raise awareness on the importance of covering the\u00c2\u00a0<em>aurah.\u00c2\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Throughout the programme, the highlight was on how to cover <em>aurah<\/em> properly by wearing stocking, hand socks and covering chest with hijab.<\/p>\n<p>\u0153We did not expect too much transformation in their appearance but we hope they can lose and thicken their attire,\u009d Ulfa said.<\/p>\n<p>She added, \u0153Surprisingly, they thanked us for organising this event as this showed that matters pertaining to female <em>aurah<\/em> is crucial.\u009d<\/p>\n<p>This event received positive feedback from local and international students from different Kulliyyah although some of them misinterpreted that the organisers wanted to judge the female students&#8217; appearance. Male students, Nurwahidah said, were also welcomed to support and participate in this event.<\/p>\n<p>As the programme came to a close, Ulfa gave the following advice, \u0153Although we are living in a century Islam will never be old. I believe our sisters are brilliant enough to choose the fashion that is paralleled with Islamic teaching, be it expensive and exclusive because you are too precious.\u009d<\/p>\n<p>Nurwahidah added, \u0153We will try to make this programme annually for every semester and hope to collaborate with other societies in the next programme.\u009d<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, i_Masjid and Sultan Haji Ahmad Shah (SHAS) Mosque will hold &#8216;Entrepreneurship Festival&#8217; or &#8216;Enterefest&#8217; from 25 to 28 April. ***<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Nurliana Zulkifli GOMBAK, 26 April 2017: With the hope to bring glory, honour and dignity to IIUM as an Islamic University, i_Masjid took this&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":103,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6,3],"tags":[],"nelio_content":{"isAutoShareEnabled":true,"autoShareEndMode":"never","automationSources":{"useCustomSentences":false,"customSentences":[]},"followers":[],"suggestedReferences":[],"efiUrl":"","efiAlt":"","highlights":[],"permalinkQueryArgs":[]},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/115019"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/103"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=115019"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/115019\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":115029,"href":"https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/115019\/revisions\/115029"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=115019"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=115019"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=115019"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
