وَقُل لِّلْمُؤْمِنَٰتِ يَغْضُضْنَ مِنْ أَبْصَٰرِهِنَّ وَيَحْفَظْنَفُرُوجَهُنَّ وَلَا يُبْدِينَ زِينَتَهُنَّ إِلَّا مَا ظَهَرَ مِنْهَا وَلْيَضْرِبْنَ بِخُمُرِهِنَّ عَلَىٰ جُيُوبِهِنَّ وَلَا يُبْدِينَ زِينَتَهُنَّ إِلَّا لِبُعُولَتِهِنَّ أَوْ ءَابَآئِهِنَّ أَوْ ءَابَآءِ بُعُولَتِهِنَّ أَوْ أَبْنَآئِهِنَّ أَوْ أَبْنَآءِ بُعُولَتِهِنَّ أَوْ إِخْوَٰنِهِنَّ أَوْ بَنِىٓإِخْوَٰنِهِنَّ أَوْ بَنِىٓ أَخَوَٰتِهِنَّ أَوْ نِسَآئِهِنَّ أَوْ مَا مَلَكَتْ أَيْمَٰنُهُنَّ أَوِ ٱلتَّٰبِعِينَ غَيْرِ أُو۟لِى ٱلْإِرْبَةِ مِنَ ٱلرِّجَالِ أَوِ ٱلطِّفْلِ ٱلَّذِينَ لَمْ يَظْهَرُوا۟ عَلَىٰ عَوْرَٰتِ ٱلنِّسَآءِ وَلَا يَضْرِبْنَ بِأَرْجُلِهِنَّ لِيُعْلَمَ مَا يُخْفِينَ مِنزِينَتِهِنَّ وَتُوبُوٓا۟ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ جَمِيعًا أَيُّهَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنُونَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُفْلِحُونَ 31  

31d.  And let them not stamp their feet so as to reveal what they hide of their adornment. And turn unto Allah all together, O Believers, in order that ye may succeed.

31d.  Wa  laa  yaz-ribna  bi-‘arjulihinna  liyu’-lama  maa  yukhfiina  min  ziinatihinn.  Wa  tuubuuu  ‘ilAllaahi  jamii-‘an  ‘ayyuhal-  Mu’-minuuna  la-‘allakum  tuflihuun.

Commentary

More instructions have been given to the women that they should not stamp their feet with pressure in order that chinking of the ornament is heard by the people and covered beauty is unveiled by its sound and the people roaming around, turn their attention to her. This is that pure and chaste life, unto which Holy Qur’an desires to direct us.

After that, it has been commanded to the Believers that many thoughts and doubts come in the mind of mankind. One should try that no chance of growing evil thoughts is provided to the brain. After caring so much, still there is no remedy without it that one should pay attention always unto Allaah Almighty.

Therefore, it is being commanded to the Believers: If you desire success in the Religion and the world, then you should give ear every time towards Allaah Almighty. These are the meanings of “Repentance” that one should slight from false thoughts and imaginations. If one has erred by chance in any matter, then he/she should repent without delay and address Allaah Almighty  for forgiveness of own sins.

There is no doubt in it that if the Commandments mentioned in Holy Qur’an are obeyed, then such society can be produced in the world, in which there would be no mutual quarrels, disputes, stupidity, blood-shed, lewdness or disturbance etc. The Muslims should try this wholeheartedly.
