Abstract :
The purpose of this study was to analyze the cultural position of hijab in satisfying the biological and spiritual needs of women. The research universe consisted of all Islamic texts related to hijab. The sample of the research enfolded the texts related to the hijab and women's biological and spiritual needs. The method of the study was descriptive-analytical. To collect data library procedure was implemented via note taking on index cards from the published references. The data then were analyzed by descriptive-analytical method. The findings of the research showed that in the verses of the Qur'an and the hadiths of the infallibles, the limits and conditions for hijab were determined. The results also indicated that human biological needs, according to Maslow, were physiological needs and the need for safety. The psycho-spiritual needs also included the need for belonging and love, the need for respect, the need for self-actualization, the need for connection and belonging to God, the need for spiritual safety, the need for friendship with God, the need for dignity (self-esteem and moral freedom), the need for spiritual self-actualization, and closeness to God. In other words, concerning the hijab had a significant impact on satisfying these needs in women. By considering the recommended clothing in Islam, satisfying these needs is also facilitated. In general, hijab plays an important role in satisfying women's biological and psycho-spiritual needs.
