LUNGI WHOLESALER LUNGI RETAILERS END CUSTOMER Offers lungis to retailers and Shopping Streets/ Readymade customers directly as a finished garment shops product or as a fabric material in KGS or SQ MTRS Most of shopping streets or shopping areas sell lungis of Wholesalers offer products at a multiple brands lower price. Leading Malls/Hyper markets/ A typical cotton lungi could be Outlets that sell lungis Imported Lungi offered in the price range AED 13 – • Abdulla Hussain Khunji traders • Most customers buy lungis AED 17 stores in Dubai Mall/ Al Wahda from small readymade shops mall • Customers typically buy 1 • Kalyan Silks lungi in a year • Kibs International has exclusive • About 10-20% of customers outlet in most GCC region prefer to get lungis from their native country Online websites • Online lungi shopping is least • Alibaba, Desertcart, Amazon, preferred 7 Way Forward for The company 1. Key focus on UAE, Oman market Almost all the citizens of UAE and Oman wears lungi underneath thobe. Currently this market needs are largely catered by Indonesian lungi suppliers. The company could offer a better-quality product at a competitive price to tap this segment of population 2. Immense opportunity for a Bangladeshi lungi brand Only about 5% of the lungis belongs to Bangladeshi brands. This is way too small when considering the Bangladeshi immigrant population based in GCC. Currently, Bangladeshi customers buy lungis which are exported from India or Indonesia. The company has an immense opportunity to tap the Bangladeshi segment of population by highlighting and advertising the product as “ Made in Bangladesh” 3. Sales and Distribution Strategies 1. The company could have tie-ups with popular and budget friendly supermarkets and hypermarkets which sell garments in GCC region. Few leading retails chains in UAE includes Al Maya Supermarket, Geant Hypermarket, and Lulu Hypermarket 2. The company could open exclusive outlets in GCC. For example: Kibs International has exclusive outlets in most of the GCC regions. It has also tie-ups wit key retail chains that sell Kibs lungis in their respective stores. 8 DETAILED ANALYSIS: DEMAND ASSSESSMENT OF LUNGIS IN GCC 9 MARKET SIZE OF LUNGIS IN UAE The lungi market in UAE is expected to pick up gradually from 2019 after a slowdown witnessed in the previous three years.

DEMOGRAPHIC SPLIT OF LUNGI MARKET, BAHRAIN • Bahrain is the least populated country among the GCC 2019 countries with over 1.7 million population in 2019 • However, its population is expected to grow at about 3.6% in 5% the coming years 12% • Bahrainis largely prefer wearing cotton pants (serwal) under the thobe.

  • Baghdad, 10Th Century the Dress of a Non-Muslim Woman
    Baghdad, 10th Century The Dress of a non-Muslim woman The Rise of Islam in Medieval Society and its Influence on Clothing In order to understand and create the clothing of a 10th century woman in an Islamic State, it is incredibly important to understand how the advent of Islam affected day to day dress in Arabic society. It did not in fact create a new style of clothing, but instead it modified the styles of dress that were popular in the 6th and 7th centuries, many of which were influenced by Hellenic and Persian dress. As the progression of Islamic moral sensibilities became more and more impressed upon society, so too did the desire to keep much of the clothing simple, functional and suitable to the environment. Within the Early Islamic era (570-632 C.E) piety and morality were strongly impressed. Adornment was thought to be too ostentatious and fine fabrics and textiles considered inappropriate for a follower of Islam. During this time, one very important and identifiable change to clothing was created. It was considered against Islam if your clothing trailed the ground or if the basic under garments were past the ankle in length. “The Prophet said (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him): “Isbaal (wearing one’s garment below the ankles) may apply to the izaar (lower garment), the shirt or the turban. Whoever allows any part of these to trail on the ground out of arrogance, Allaah will not look at him on the Day of Judgment”. (reported by Abu Dawud, no 4085, and al-Nisaa’I in al-Mujtabaa, Kitab (al-Zeenah,Baab Isbaal al-Izaar) These hadiths are small collections of reports and statements of what The Prophet Muhammad was observed to say were written by his closest echelon of courtiers.

Desai has been totally revised by the staff of The Islamic Bulletin. The book is now concise, informative, and perhaps most important of all, enlightening. The text is more fluid and readily understood, such as the use of numbers, titles and subtitles, and minor textual rearrangements, including helpful weblinks. Finally we have provided the reader with transliteration of the Duuas (supplications) and Quranic verses in Arabic, thereby accommodating those unable to read Arabic text. We can only hope that what we have done will prove to be useful to the reader in his or her study of this book.

  • Body Acts Queer BODY
    Body Acts Queer BODY Body Acts Queer is an exploration of the performative and ideological functions of clothes with regard to gender, feminism and queer. It is an artistic, practice-based thesis in the field of fashion and design. The thesis includes three projects: On & GUNN MAJA ACTS Off, If you were a girl I would love you even more and The Club Scene. In these projects I, using text and bodies, work with acts in which clothes have a fundamental role. By exploring bodily experiences of clothes, I investigate the clothes’ performative and ideological functions, with a focus on cultural, social and heteronormative structures. UNIVERSITY OF BORÅS STUDIES IN ARTISTIC RESEARCH NO 14 2015 14 NO RESEARCH ARTISTIC IN STUDIES UNIVERSITY BORÅS OF QUEER Working with clothing and fashion design from a queer feminist perspective, I transform queer and feminist theory into a creative process. The projects presented in this thesis, together with the discussion, suggest a change in the ways in which MAJA GUNN bodies act, are perceived and are produced within the fashion field, givingexamples of how a queer design practice can be performed. In this thesis, queer design is explored as an inclusive term, containing ideas about clothes and language, the meeting point between fiction and reality and the ability to interpretation and bodily transformations – where desire, bodily experiences and interaction create a change.

  • DRESS ACCORDING to the SUNNAH the BAROMETER of IMAAN Choice of Dress Style Is the Effect of Imaan and Kufr
    DRESS ACCORDING TO THE SUNNAH THE BAROMETER OF IMAAN Choice of dress style is the effect of Imaan and kufr. It is precisely for this reason that the Fuqahaa have ruled that adoption of kuffaar dress-style is kufr. The dress itself is not kufr. But the DRESS attitude of the heart which constrains a Muslim to adopt a non- Muslim dress-style is kufr since it displays a preference and a desire for something which belongs to the kuffaar. This attitude implies that the kuffaar style is better and more preferable than the style of the Ambiyaa, Sulaha and the Ummah. This is the attitude which ACCORDING exposes a Muslim to the grave danger of kufr. Qaadhi Baidaawi in his Tafseer of the Qur'aan Majeed states: "Verily; wearing the clothes of aliens (kuffaar), tying a zunnaar (the TO THE holy thread of idolaters or the crucifix) and similar other acts have been proclaimed kufr because the acts display (or imply) rejection (of Islam). Most assured, a person who has accented the Rasool (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) will obviously not be so audacious to SUNNAH commit these acts." Leaving aside the technical argument pertaining to haraam and Makrooh, the question which has to be asked is: Why would a Muslim give preference to the dress-style of the kuffaar? Why would a Muslim love to walk around with a bare head when 124 000 Ambiyaa, 120 000 Sahaabah and the entire Ummah of Islam from the very inception of this Deen, always covered their heads with a special type of headgear which belongs exclusively to Muslims? If your Nabi (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) and his By: Sahaabah always covered their heads, why do you who claim to be their followers, love to bare your head in public like the kuffaar do? Mujlisul Ulama of S.A.

Exalted ~alaah (blessings) and complete salaam (peace) be on our master Muhammad Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam and his family and companions. The aamaa-il of Imaam Abu 'Eesa Tirmiei has a collection of 397 ahaadia and is divided into 55 chapters on the physical description and character of our beloved Nabi Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam. It has been printed on numerous occasions and many commentaries have been written on it. The present English translation and comm entary is of the masaa-il Nabawi Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam by the late Shayaul Hadith Maulana Muhammad Zakariyya Rabmatullahi 'Alayhi. It will enable a Muslim to achieve a link and connection with the one whom Allah Ta'aala has made as a mercy unto mankind, and most certainly Allah has spoken the truth when He mentions in His Hook: "Verily, you (0 Muhammad) are of a very high (noble) charac- ter". A Muslim can truly claim his love for Rasulullah Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam, if he attempts to follow the manner and life-style of the messenger of Islaam. We are given such an opportunity, after the reading of this book, for it enlightens the reader with the intimate aspect of the Rasul's life.
