A properly-attired Muslim: "ornaments" = cleavage and thighs

Here is what I hope is an Islamic argument for the banning of the niqab for the protection of Muslims and the prevention of crime and Islamophobia.

24:31 contains the dress code for a properly-attired Muslim woman.

Way I look at it, no cleavage should be on view. That's it.

A woman's "ornaments" are her breasts and thighs.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleavage_%28breasts%29

Arguably, an ugly woman has no ornaments at all and everything about a beautiful woman is an ornament, including her eyes, which you cannot cover or you would be blinding her. I suppose you could argue that a beautiful woman must always wear sunglasses in a public place, but that would just be impractical and extreme.

Having dealt with a woman's upper torso, we now, er, "lower our gaze" to her lower torso.

Therefore, you have some sort of sensible rule. I would suggest that modest dress includes skirts.

Let us say then that anything above a woman's knee is an ornament, and skirts, to be modest, should cover a woman's thighs.

In one morning I have single-handedly resolved and pronounced upon the proper dress code for all decent, right-minded women, Muslim and non-Muslim, for all time.

In a perfect world, I would be called upon to be the Mufti of Britain.

In the lands of the Malay, the never seen things before can be seen more and more in public. The brand of your underwear, anchovies caught red handed while the sharks still burp with blood unscratched and the stupidity of unislamic Muslims trying to please their masters, which is most likely are afraid of them rather than their own evil doing. What a plot of a drama in the lands of the Malay.
