Abstract

In the Qur'an, the Quranic verse about clothing is an important theme which is worth elaborating to reveal the purpose of mentioning it. The urgency of the Quranic verse about clothing is illustrated by the terms which the Qur'an uses when talking about clothing. The Qur'an uses different terms, namely libas, zinah, labus, tsiyab and sarabil, all of which show the meaning of covering and protecting. This article aimed to reveal the dimensions contained in the terms of clothing used by the Qur'an. In addition, this article also aimed to reveal the meaning of the terms of clothing in the context of culture and people's tradition when the Qur'an was descended. Using a thematic method and a historical- sociological approach to the terms of clothing in the Qur'an, this article came to the finding that dressing in principle is commandment of Allah as evidence of His love for humans. The main function of clothing is as a cover of aurat (body parts required by Islam to be covered) reflecting that human having higher degree than other creatures. Human contentment on clothes and jewelry is basically in accordance with human nature. Humans are given freedom to make clothes to fulfill their needs by observing the criteria established by the Sharia. Islam is totally concerned about the ethics of dressing in worship and instructs to wear clean, holy and simple clothing. The Qur'an commands a muslim female believer to cover her head, neck and chest with a hijab so that it cannot be seen by others and is evidence of every muslim female believer in maintaining her honor and dignity.
