Today, women’s position in Abrahamic religions is a controversial issue in academia and media.
Although there are many similarities among Abrahamic faiths, different interpretations about the
creation and role of women are seen in their holy books and traditions. This study firstly explores
the reasons of observing modest norms among Jews, Christians and Muslims and secondly the
analytical comparisons among their respective teachings to obtain the similarities and differences
between Judeo-Christian and Islamic doctrines concerning the philosophy behind women's
modesty and modest dress observance and thirdly the outcome of this issue. Abrahamic faiths
have emphasized on observing modest behaviours for men and women and in this context have
recommended women to wear modest dress. Western feminists suggest that female covering is a
symbol of oppression, subordination and patriarchy. However, the common reasons in these
faiths for wearing modest dress are piety, obedience of God, keeping modesty virtue and
protecting women’s immunity, avoiding illegal sex relationships in society and protecting the
stability of the family as sacred scheme. Despite these similarities, still some roots of modesty
norm in Judeo-Christian teachings confirm the feminist critiques, while they do not exist in
Islam. The finding of this study demonstrates that some certain teachings in the Judeo-Christian
tradition emphasize on the feminist critique that consider women’s modest dress as a symbol of
their oppression, subordination to men, and patriarchy are inapplicable in Islam.
