Definition of beauty

Slim body Beautiful faceHigh intellectual Good attitude

When we talk about beauty, definitely we know it brings different meaning to different people. Some people say, beautiful is depending on the personality of people. If the personality is good, means that the one who own it is beautiful and vice versa . Therefore, in order to get some opinion about the definition on beauty, a survey has been done on 25 students from IIUM. This survey also including the opinion from male students where it took place around Institute of Education, IIUM

Hence, based on the result, it is obviously stated that 64 percent of the students opined that beautiful means good attitude. This opinion is actually paralleled with the opinion from Al-Farabi which said that the goodness is the beautiful and the beautiful is the goodness of attitude.

This survey also is purposely done in order to survey the expenses that spent by the students of IIUM relating to the beauty product.

Therefore, based on the result, it is clear that more than half students tend to spend almost RM 50 and below for their beautiful product. This amount is considered as reasonable category since they are still students and some of them are not getting any loan and scholarship.

Besides, based on the survey, it is shown that most of the products that they used are not so expensive and suitable for students. For instance, the products like Shurah, Safi Balqish, Alaisyah and Fair and Lovely.

The preferable method in

maintaining health and beauty

Traditional method Modern method

The survey also asked about their

preferable method in maintaining their beauty and

health. The result shows that almost more than half

of them are supporting the modern method rather

than traditional method.

It might be happened due to lack of time in

using the traditional method for their beauty.

Although the effectiveness of using the traditional

way is undeniable but it took a very long time to

see the effect compared to the modern product.

However, most of respondents also stated

that they have the experience in trying the

traditional method to beautify their skin. For

example, by eating ginger and garlic juice, using

oat, Tamarin and Guava leaf for face mask and

also white egg to remove the blackhead.

Besides, some of them claimed that by

using the tea bag, it will help them to reduce the

black circle around their eye as well as can be used

as scrub for removing the dust on the face.

Islam and the meaning of beauty

Islam is a religion that really emphasizes

on the moderation to the followers where you will

not doing something at the lower or excessive

level. Besides, the concept of beautiful is also

strongly related with the element of moderation

and also modesty.

Therefore, as modesty is a quality that is

loved by Allah, the Muslims especially women

must take care properly on their modesty and not

following those women who show themselves off

to the world. Besides, it is seen that one of the

most important things to implement the modesty

in our life especially women is to govern our

awrah properly and also wearing Hijab.

Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: “Allah is beautiful and He loves beauty.” [Sahīh Muslim (911)]

Based on the hadith above, it is clear that the value

of beauty is also acknowledged by Allah S.W.T

since this attribute is also a part of Him.

However, beautiful or beauty means

differently for some people. Some of them claimed

that you will be looking beautiful if you have a

beautiful skin, beautiful body and beautiful smile

while some of them opined that beautify must be

accompanied with intellectuality, otherwise, it is

nothing for women or men to have a well-looking

without brain.

The definition of beautiful also might be

understood differently by some different people

form different places. For instance, some European

might suggest that the skinnier you are, the more

beautiful you will look. This trend is actually has

turned the lifestyle of many people especially

women to highly risky in terms of their health. It is

because, due to their strong belief on this doctrine,

some of them were suffering from Anorexia and

also Bulimia that somehow cause them to death.

The Prophet P.b.u.h, said: "Allah is modest and covering. He loves modesty and privacy." [Abu Daawood, An-Nasaa'i Al Bayhaqi, Ahmad].
