Who deserves to be Worshiped ?

And Rebekah lifted up her eyes, and when she saw Isaac, she dismounted
from the camel and said to the servant, “Who is that man, walking in the field
to meet us?” The servant said, “It is my master.” So she took her veil and
covered herself. (Genesis 24:64-65)
Islam encourages decency and modest dress for both men and women. Muslim
women are instructed to cover their bodies and to wear veils that cover their heads
and chests. Allah has mentioned:
{And tell the believing women to reduce [some] of their vision and guard their
private parts and not expose their adornment except that which [necessarily] appears
thereof and to wrap [a portion of] their head covers over their chests and not expose
their adornment…} (Quran 24: 31)
The wisdom behind veiling is explained in Quran 33: 59, which states that it
protects women from possible social harm. 96 In addition, veiling discourages males
from approaching females with dishonourable intentions.
In today’s society, disregard for the hijab―and for modesty in general―is one
factor that has led to women being treated as objects, whereby their bodies are used
as commodities from which to acquire pleasure. It is no surprise then that many
companies use women as advertising props to entice customers into purchasing their
products. The fact remains that even in the eyes of those who use women as objects,
only those who keep more of their bodies covered and hidden from the public eye
are regarded as modest.

these:
