May Allah bestow His Mercy on the early
emigrant women. When Allah revealed:
"... and to draw their veils all over their
Juyubihinna (i.e., their bodies, faces, necks
and bosoms)..." (V.24:31) they tore their
Murat (woolen dresses or waist-binding
clothes or aprons etc.) and covered their
heads and faces with those torn Muruts.

make him walk on his face on the Day of Resurrection?" (Qatada, a subnarrator, said: Yes, By the
Power of Our Lord!)
