I would just like to extend a thank you for providing the etymology of the word "khimar". Your site provided an excellent break down from the use of the word in the Quran 24:31. I value the etymology break down like in this example. It mirrors what another Muslim clarified to me (he is both an Arabic speaker and a
degree in Islamic Studies).
Too often I hear that the people say that Quran tell women to cover their face and hair justified by that verse, as well as apply other verses to oppress women.
I will be coming back often to read your work as I read the Quran (don't worry about me using it as the only source for interpretation). Your are a humble servant and do great service by helping others with your work such as helping me as a Christian wanting to understand the Islam of those I can call friends, coworkers and neighbors.
cheers,
