A Review of Mohsen Kadivar's Views on the “Limits of Hijab” Relying on the Verses of Hijab

“Limits of hijab” is among the important issues that has been widely discussed in recent years, and the extent of hijab in the Islamic texts is one of the topics related to it. Mr. Mohsen Kadivar is one of the modernists who has addressed this issue in a series of lessons and sessions on hijab and has published his views in a piece of writing entitled “Reflection on the Issue of Hijab”. He believes that although the texts of narrations point out the limits of covering, it is not possible to obtain the limits of women’s covering from the appearance of the Quranic verses on hijab, and these verses only emphasize the preservation of chastity and women’s covering. In this article, his point of view has been studied and evaluated using the analytical-critical method. Finally, it has been concluded that the verses of the Quran imply the maximum covering of women, and the claim that they emphasize the limits of womenchr('39')s hijab is incorrect.
