I really don't understand some people who are calling him a hypocrite.
He is a MAN.
What the hell is he supposed to wear ? A women's dress ? 😆
The problem is that yes there is a certain dress code for wherever you go. His work might enforce a pant suit attire so he follows it (and might I say looks incredibly delicious following it 😛 😆), but the lounge has an attire as well (thats what najma said right). If you are supposed to wear jeans there then that is their dress code (just like there are dress codes in certain parties).
And there lies the hypocrisy not to mention extremely regressive thought process. Hypocrisy because when his work makes him wear certain clothing then its fine for him, but not fine for his sister. If his 'tehzeeb' is so important to him then he should find a workplace more suitable to his 'tehzeeb'...one where he is allowed to wear eastern clothing. You cannot say one thing is fine for one person while another thing isnt. And what if tomorrow Najma found work and her work required her to wear suits (the ones with skirts not pants)...you think he would ever in a million years let her work there...umm let me think NO. And you see that is where the hypocrisy lies. Okay for me but not for you mentality is the definition of hypocrisy. I think this mentality stems from his being a man because it is more acceptable for him to do whatever he likes (within bounds ofcourse) in that society but for a woman...she cant even choose the clothes she can wear let alone going out with friends.
@Chocolate charm- Its normal for a girl to wear jeans regardless of what religion she belongs to. Wearing salwar or any saree or any such clothing is a cultural phenomenon not a religious requirement.
P.S. from everything everyone has said I gather that in Islam you try not to look attractive to the opposite sex right. Even men have to dress modestly so as to not attract attention...well then Asad has no right to wear such clothing because man he burned up my scream to say nothing of my scorching body temperature 😆...And what about all the girls that will stare gawk eyed at him on the streets? Inappropriate clothing Mr.Asad.
