These instincts being so necessary for organism of our life, as through them we can discern the right and the unright. On this basis, the probability saying that the human instincts, which are origin of all life activities, being an obstacle on the way of humanity of man and so they should be taken away, would not be a logical matter. That which is indicated by exigency of logic and Divine wisdom, being that these instincts should be controlled and overpowered by human character and resolution. And if these instincts be exploited without control or restraint, the human soul will take the mien of a commanding soul "to evil" that would not know a reality other than desire and passing fancy. While when being controlled and restrained by man's strong will, these very instincts would acquire a human sublime aspect and help man in strengthening an ideal life. In other words, the sexual instinct is as necessary as life itself. But if these vital instincts be set at liberty, the human character would be definitely brought to naught, or rather man would not be there so as to say: Does he have personality or not? The conclusion we get is that shyness and chastity, as a human quality, being the foundation for relations between woman and man in view of the Islamic culture. And the issues of clothes and their attachments come in the course of safeguarding and developing this virtue. Then forbidding "women" from displaying charms and intercoursing with men was made in accordance to this philosophy. The holy Quran has made a reference to this innate virtue, in the story of creation of Adam and Eve, when talking about their eating of the forbidden tree: "Then he instigated them both by deceit so when they tasted "of" the tree their shameful things got displayed unto them, and they both began covering themselves with the leaves of the Garden..." "7:22" In continuation of these verse "verse 26" there is a reference to sending down of a raiment to cover the privy parts, with a mention of enmity of Satan to man through stripping off the raiment of Adam and Eve "verse 27".
"O children of Adam! Let not Satan involve you into affliction as he got your parents out, from the garden "of the blissful life" stripping off their raiment, that he may expose unto them their shame;..." "7:27" Praising Yousif's chastity in dealing with Egyptian women, he quotes his speech in this way: "Said he: "O my Lord! The prison is dearer to me than that unto which they invite me; and if Thou turneth not away from me their guile I may yearn unto them and become of the ignorant ones." "12:33" In other verses there is emphasis on shyness and chastity of Shu'ayb's daughters in social relations and their way of walking and behaviour as in the following Quranic verse: "And when arrived he at the water of Madyan, he found on it a group of men "watering their flocks" and found he besides them two women keeping back "their flocks"; said "Moses": "What aileth you?" Said the two "women" "We cannot water until the shepherds take away "their sheep from the water", and our father is very old." "28:23" These daughters recognise and consider shyness and chastity in time of being engaged in work and activity and presence on arena of social activities. Also these very daughters showed a polite way of walking and modest behaviour: "Then came unto him one of the two women walking bashfully..." "28:25" In this very episode virtuousness of Moses"A" is reiterated, as in some narrations, thus: "Moses said to the daughter: Show me the right way and move "walk" behind me, as we children of Jacob, never look at the posterior parts of women." 173 Likewise it "the holy Quran" praises chastity of Mary"A" in this way:
