I think technlogy is such an amazing tool.
Whats more amazing is that this whole mxit list saga has brought together young and old, various schools of thought and diverse ppl all using the medium of mxit, to stand up against injustice.
I must commend everyone for speaking their minds as humans. Morality is such an important concept and practice in society. It must be kept safe and secure and all humans must protect each others modesty.
Islam shows us modesty in clothing and in methods of communication etc, but I need everyone to know..that Islam doesnt say to be modest you must wear cloak and scarf and sit in your house and cook and pray...nor does it say to men to wear kurta and topi and work and hide ur wife and daughters and pray whole day...NO NO NO!!
Islamc says wearing this type of clothing is the best form of modesty...but its about how you are and how you act not only about how u dress, cos you can wear a kurta and topi and be swearing and making out and ripping ppl off.
So yes, be sincere with yourself, guys you can wear jeans and a t shirt and still be the best muslim ever, girls you can wear jeans and a top (as long as its loose :P) and still be the best muslim ever!
But dont forget, guys a beard shows your islamic identity, doesnt have to be big and curly, as long as you have some hair on your face is good enough and girls, a scarf is your identity so wear it and cover your hair. You get so many diff colours and styles which makes you so much more beautiful, not just beautiful but islamically beautiful.
Hope i make sense, apologies for a long post, just wanted to mention my thoughts since this mxit list is related to modesty.

Its been a long time since i read such a good piece of work on modesty which was not written by an Islamic Studies academic scholar.
Keep up the good work and keep spreading the message of Islam.
