I am a born and raised white Muslim woman. My mother converted to Islam many years ago from Catholicsm. I spent many years studying my faith and now I started wearing the hijab two years ago. Best decision I ever made! I now occasionally wear the abaya and khimar to the masjid.
This title scrared me. No one in my family wears Hijab I am pakistani living in Canada. All my life I have been fashionable but MODEST Fashion. Mini skirt with leggings type of fashion. But I also pray, fast and back of the mind I always had this thing that I have to start wearing Hijab. I am 27 unmarried. My family is supportive but they say think wisely as it would be wrong to take it off after starting it. One night I was sleeping and I kept on getting thoughts that you don't know if you will wake up tomorrow it's now or never. So the next morning, i didn't think twice and started hijab and it's been 5 months to this journey. I am going through proposals hunt and sometimes I think somw guys don't like hijab. And sometimes I think if I started too early maybe I should have waited till marriage. But the battle in my mind keep on getting stronger but I know Im firm on this Allah will bring a man to my life who will accept me with my hijab 😊
a husband who fears and loves Allah would also want his wife to wear a hijab :) so don’t ever think like that ! Allah will surely grant you a righteous spouse
You did the right thing. I have a friend who took hijab off for her husband. Years later now he wants her to do it but she doesn’t find it in her to do. Also, if someone marries you while you don’t wear hijab, he may not like it let you wear hijab. Alhamdulillah you have supportive family and when you take one step towards Allah, Allah takes many. There is a test in wearing hijab but there is also great ease and ultimate success. May Allah give you istiqama and increase you. Ameen
I don’t think someone who doesn’t accept u wearing a hijab is a good muslim lol U gotta make ur choice, Allah or some guy that has no ghira or accept the fardh of Allah? You don’t leave something for Allah that he doesn’t replace it with something better :)
Mashallah sister, i want to start too but there all sourts of fears stopping me but improud of you that you took those fear head on and wear it, inshallah i will too wear it one day.
the timing is actually crazy. i was walking to college this morning with my friends and i started to feel uncomfortable in the hijab for no absolute reason. this has been happening to me for months now and i just feel like its not sitting on my head properly and its started to make me extremely frustrated with it. From time to time i even feel suffocated when i do full coverage styles. Though I know i won't take it off (inshallah - i would have too much guilt and i have an attachment to it) it still bothers me that i have these strong feelings more commonly recently. thank you for this video Farah
I was feeling this way recently too, and my daughter doesn't like it( she is young still) and so one day I didn't wear it and I ended up being seen by a muslim women at my doctors clinic, she was the nurse and I was so upset that she didn't recognize that I was a muslim too! And I felt so ashamed and sad that a fellow sister and I could have greeted with assalamualaikum, but she didn't because I didn't have hijab. Now I wear it all the time.
This is such an important topic!!! Current muslim influencers don't help either. They'll give "hijab tutorials" but it'll be with the neck exposed or baby hairs out. Of course they look very pretty allahummabarik don't get me wrong. But as a hijabi, these influencers influenced me from full hijab to "loose around the neck hijab" to "baby hairs out hijab" and then at one point I really wanted to take it off but I was reminded as to who I wore it for, and it was for Allah. I'm scared that this new generation won't understand what true hijab is and the difference between hijab and headscarf just because of what they see on social media... ladies please don't get influenced just to fit into the new norm of hijab. Collectively we must remember the purpose of hijab and it's not for beautification edit: something that helps is realising all these influencers at some point have posted a reel of them praying and they've wrapped their hijab on properly. shows that even they know it's wrong. why follow someone who knows what they do is wrong? they get the sin for it and you'll also get it for any woman who sees you and gets influenced by you :/ a sad reality
This is exactly why I haven’t fully committed to hijab. I see influencers and feel that they look SO BEAUTIFUL! And THAT is my reason for wanting to wear it- it’s vanity…. And I just can’t go out like that right now. I don’t want to be fake with Allah. I’m still battling a lot,.. so I’m taking my time. Inshallah, it’ll be put on my heart to wear it for the RIGHT reasons. ❤
@@Chocowafers I wear it from time to time. It’s not like I NEVER EVER wear it. Besides, I’m home like 95% of the time 😅. I appreciate your opinion though.
@weirdpisces not really, been there done that now i wear an abaya to uni to work to family events 🤷♀️ no hair, no make up Alhamdullilah. its tough 100%
Opposite effect for me. I went from no hijab to hijab now bc of these influencers. Now if they dont wear them correctly that’s their issue not mine and it genuinely doesnt bother me

I love that you didn't focus the video on hijab rather on things one should strengthen in order to be able to wear it with conviction. Also the "success doesn't equate to doing what everybody else is doing bas doing it better" wrung so true. Your videos always help me reflect on my own life and i appreciate you for the inspiration you keep bringing. جزاك الله خير ووفقك بإذنه
I am a revert of a year now, and have just started to wear hijab in work and in the main have had positive comments - not that I wanted others approval but I admit I was apprehensive. At 48 I thought I would have had a bit more about me, so it's not just our younger selves that doubt. Oh, and I'm totally here for the tablecloth! Keep making these videos, you're amazing. Love and peace from the UK, guv'nor!
i am a fairly new revert and i can say subhanallah you speak life into me and into my heart and when it comes to prayer after watching your videos i get soooooo emotional and grateful to allah swt by the way you speak. alhamdullilah. may allah grant you the best and make your path easy in all your affairs. you are truly a blessing farah💗
I took it off for a month this year after wearing it my whole life because I had enough of feeling “ugly” and looking different from everyone else. I noticed the only difference was that you get a bit more attention from men, and that’s all😂 I didn’t feel any prettier, I missed being a hijabi and seeing other girls in hijab made me miss it even more so I just put it back on. I feel I did have to go on that journey though because otherwise I’d always be thinking “what if” but now I’m sure I want it on.
34:24 i think i actually needed to hear this today , بارك الله وفيك وجعلها فيه ميزان حسناتك i love you girl and im so glad that people like you exist in this world :/
@@Two.HousesThe purpose of the Hijab is to not get raped by perverted Arabs without self control and not to please Allah. Look at the story why Mohamed suggested women to wear the hijab 😂
It really did Farah, it really did change my perspective. You’re a blessing to us, May Allah bless you. Inshallah. Thank you so much farah, We love you!
Farah, you’re a natural at being so expressive! Yes you’ve made me laugh, and also cry in the duration of watching this video. I, myself, have never dealt with the emotions of wanting to take the hijab off but it is wild how much of this video revealed my OWN struggles with validations despite that. May Allah accept all the effort you have made with your presence online and the character you’ve become. Very very keen on a table cloth prayer set, I’m sold.
i think i will start wearing it soon! most of my friends are hijabis and i usually wear a hood that covers most my hair anyway. ig the main things im worried about is heat intolerance and sensory issues. like i pass out easily due to heat so i hope i'll be okay during the summer.
For the hot weather I use some bamboo fabric undercap and modal hijabs, very lightweight, you don't even feel it and it absorbs the sweat. Though I don't know in wich latitude you live sister so chiffon might do (it's light but it's polyester based). May Allah facilitates you 🙏🏼
I want to wear the hijab, I reverted very recently alhamduillah and live with parents at the moment. My mom is concerned that I’m becoming an “extremist” because I’m dressing modestly now and I haven’t even worn the hijab, she’s concerned because I don’t dress the way I used to (even though she would shame me for that too) all love and prayers to anyone who wears the hijab, even if they struggle with it. It’s difficult and I pray I have success with wearing the hijab full time, inshallah. The meaning of hijab is beautiful to me as someone who has been obsessed with my appearance since a child, I can be free of that stress.
Salaam, I just wanted to say how much you have helped me. It's hard nowadays to find influencers who stay true to not only islam but also to themselves. Your authenticity shines through your videos and I love how you do not sugarcoat the parts of islam that are seen as more difficult to talk about in a modern western society thank you for making these videos, please continue to do so. Jazakallah khairan
May Allah make it easy for us women to put the hijab on and practicing modesty in a right way, Ameen♥️♥️ hijab is so much more than just a headscarf, it’s also the way you carry yourself, about your shyness, how you treat other people and lowering our gaze :)
It is strange but hearing you talk it brought me home to my own culture .. im not from a muslim background at all im from ireland and it made me realize i want to connect with my own culture.
Thank you for sharing authentically and sincerely. Jazak Allahu khair and may you be blessed greatly for your positive influence 🤍 listening to you this morning during my walk felt like I was having a much needed conversation with a friend who truly understands me. Alhamdulillah for the way Allah brings the right energy in our path at the right time :) Salam sister
this is my weekly newspaper. also i think your prayer gown looks beautiful on you, the colors and designs are so pretty MashAllah!! honestly i know it’s meant for proper coverage for prayer but if i saw a woman wearing it out and about id think it was absolutely fabuloussss
I am your sister from Yemen, and by Allah I only spoke out of hunger and distress. My mother, my brothers, and I lessons and tears. We are in a situation that only God knows about. God is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs for those who broughtOh people, we are your sisters, by God 😭😭😭 We do not even find a loaf of bread inside the house that would satisfy you, oh nation of Muhammad. People are brothers. Oh God, make your righteous servants subservient to us. Oh God, make your righteous servants subservient to us.

My mother, sisters, and I are displaced from our homes because of the war. We are in a state that no one knows about except God. God is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs, against those who brought us to this state 💔💔 By God Almighty, I only wrote this appeal out of extreme poverty and poverty, oh people. I beg you by God Almighty, Lord of the Mighty Throne, that I do not have food at home. By God, my brothers and sisters have been sitting around for two days. Without food, by God our situation is very difficult, we are 4 people in the house and my father passed away and there is no one to support us and we live in a rented house and we cannot pay the rest of the rent. I am not lying to you nor deceiving you nor cheating you. I am a Yemeni girl displaced because of the war between me and my family over a rent dispute and the owner of the house. By God, my brother comes every day and humiliates us and talks about us and wants us to go out to the street because we are unable to pay him the rent. The neighbors saw us crying and talked to the neighbors again and gave us a deadline until the end of the week and we swore to God to let us out of the street now we are in arrears of 60 thousand Yemeni riyals for 3 months rent may God have mercy on us our country is suffering because of this war and we do not find our daily sustenance and we live my mother and sisters our father passed away may God have mercy on him and we do not have anyone in the world to come to us in these harsh circumstances my little sisters went out to the street and saw the neighbors eating and stood at their door giving them even a piece of bread and by God in whose hand is the heavens and the earth they closed the door and kicked them out and they came back crying dying of hunger no one has mercy on them and now the holiday has come back to me if no one of us helps us with a kilo of flour by God we will die of hunger brother I seek refuge in God and then in you and I want your help for the sake of God I ask you by God you love goodness and help me even if it is about the rent of the house send me a WhatsApp message on this number 00967711013075 and ask for my card name and send it and do not delay may God compensate you with all good My little sisters, look at their situation and help us and save us before they throw us out into the street and humiliate us or my family and I die of hunger.

Not that I have been wanting to take off my hijab lately, but I have been comparing myself to others a lot, both in appearance and character. As if I'm always and always less than others, whatever they do is right and whatever I do is wrong (in terms of character, within the halal boundaries). I don't have Instagram, so it makes things better I assume, but still, I use other social media platforms and compare myself to girls I see in real life. That is truly tiring, and I am trying to combat these feelings, as I know jealousy and a constant feeling of not being content with myself will poison my heart. Still, I struggle with it a lot. Hope it'll get better))
struggling to have self satisfaction may caused by us not seeing our full potential. may Allah bless you with ease… and like Farah 2nd tip, let’s create our personal project so along the way-with Allah’s guide ofc-we can craft the best version of ourselves☺️🤍
Actually the way you're struggling is how you're going to gain more thawab. Hijaab is not supposed to be easy and currently in this generation its more difficult but remember the time of the prophet Muhammad (s.a.w) it was tougher than today. You fighting those nafs of taking ur hijaab off is a jihad in itself. So, if you'd like to take it off, first of all the blessings of wearing it and protection will all go away. The thawab you're gaining will go away as well. You representing your self as a Muslimah will go away. On a side note hijaab is supposed to hide your beauty not to show it as our beauty is precious. As we muslimahs are precious and we are amazing and strong. But that's ur journey as well and of course it involve your decision and ur feelingthh as well but am here to tell you have sabr and it'll be worth it. I'm proud of how far you come 😊.
@@justkhadija6304 Thank you for that, but I wasn't telling that I struggle with hijab. In fact, I feel very comfortable with it. The purpose of my comment was to say that I struggle with self-comparison the most.
@ItsMeStarsky ohhh am sorry 😅 but I think look ik it's gonna sound so wrong, but we're better than them, dw😉. Ik it's hard, but insha Allah you’ll get through it.
I don't even wear the hijab (might soon) but I love watching your videos. I laughed a lot & found it insightful.. and that second tip, i was like yalllaaaa say it 🤣
Hi Farah... I cam across your videos few weeks ago and I am a fan. The knowledge, the humor, the modesty, the simplicity, the delivery of these videos are just on Point. 👍👍😍😍Also, I would like to ask/suggest that if you could do one of your episodes on 99 names of Allah. Like explain its meaning along with that would be really helpful. Idk why I am not able to find all 99 names, its just bits and pieces on UA-cam. So it would be really helpful. Thanks. Love from India❣
I started learning to wear wraparound scarf properly when i started sixth form andnow i can do it instantly so om happy i used to wear pull on scarf and still do but at home
Please make sure to have hijabi friends, and to follow fellow hijabis on social media if you are on them. Wallahi it really helps when you have a community of hijabi sisters they strengthen you
Привет. Farah, please speak a little bit in Russian in your next video. I wanna hear it, cuz when u once said "Польша" i was so surprised by your pure pronunciation :))
Just started wearing full time hijab this week alhamdulillah. I LOVE YOU ALL, MUSLIM SISTERS… HIJABI OR NOT… ALLAHUMMAH BARIK ❤️ Also I’ll buy your prayer gown, YES!
Sahih al-Bukhari 6416 Narrated Mujahid: `Abdullah bin `Umar said, "Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) took hold of my shoulder and said, 'Be in this world as if you were a stranger or a traveler." The sub-narrator added: Ibn `Umar used to say, "If you survive till the evening, do not expect to be alive in the morning, and if you survive till the morning, do not expect to be alive in the evening, and take from your health for your sickness, and (take) from your life for your death."
MashaaAllah Farah nice talk. I’d like to add to the point of someone having principles that are like pillar; it’s true these people don’t get influenced easily. But in order not to become like your environment, incase one doesn’t have an Islamic environment or Muslims around, one needs to still keep in touch with righteous company even if online and one needs to continue attending Islamic halqas of knowledge and Quran even if they are online. Allah subanhu ta’la has told us to stay and keep company with those who bow and prostrate (paraphrasing)
One more thing to clear for you all. Your best version is not a destination but an ongoing journey, it's not something u will achieve one day automatically and then be granted jannah. It's actually you trying everyday to your best level to be the best version and maintaining that every other day, cuz death ain't coming to u announced on a specific date before which u have to become the best version, u will die unexpectedly for sure but whats important is if u were maintaining that good character and those good deeds while dying
الله يجزيكي كل خير يارب وكالعادة your sense of humour is unmatched ❤ But I hoped you'd cover more aspects of the reasons that make a girl takes it off. For example and sadly so, many and I mean MANY of my friends had taken it off because it seemed as a burden in their way to succeed in their careers, or to fit in with the western communities, or to not being judged, or denied of so many job opportunities because and only because of it.
My history with hijab hasn't been the best, but I decided to take it when I was 17. I still struggle sometimes, and there was this one time when Shaitan and my nafs started to whisper in my head negative things about hijab; about the point of it. It didn't help when I heard and saw that many of the influencers I knew (but that I didn't follow) were taking it off. But then, I had a bad dream in which I decided to take my hijab off when I was outside. But it felt so wrong. Like, seriously a sickening feeling dawned over me, and even when I woke up, it didn't leave me until afternoon. I realised then, that I had to keep it. Because Allah told all women to cover their hair. It also has become a part of identity, at this point. May Allah guide us all and give us hidayah and guide us to be steadfast in our deen. May Allah bless you all.
Salam Farah, I was wondering if you can do a series going through the quran together? I love your perspective and love what you said about pondering the names etc just throwing this out there but i feel like it would be a nice space for you muslimahs to get in touch with the book
my dear sister Farah, I'm fasting today and thinking of you. outside of hijab, it really is a beauty competition, and the goal is to get attention. but most of the time it's unwanted attention that we get. so it really is better to wear hijab.
When you wear a hijab, you are obeying the commands of Allah, and you can expect great rewards in return. It is Allah's protection of your natural beauty. You are too precious to be "on display" for each man to see. It is Allah's preservation of your chastity. Allah purifies your heart and mind through the hijab. Allah raises your dignity through the hijab. When a strange man looks at you, he respects you because he sees that you respect yourself.
I am a born and raised white Muslim woman. My mother converted to Islam many years ago from Catholicsm. I spent many years studying my faith and now I started wearing the hijab two years ago. Best decision I ever made! I now occasionally wear the abaya and khimar to the masjid.
May allah strengthen your faith sister 🫡
Subhanallah.
Masha Allah, May Allah bless you sis.
yaaaaaaaaaaaay
Telling that you're white was a little bit unnecessary but ok nvm

YESSS DO IT SIS !! May Allah make it easy for you, we are ur sisters and we are happy for that , dont hesitate to do it !
It really did Farah, it really did change my perspective. You’re a blessing to us, May Allah bless you. Inshallah. Thank you so much farah, We love you!
Farah, you’re a natural at being so expressive! Yes you’ve made me laugh, and also cry in the duration of watching this video. I, myself, have never dealt with the emotions of wanting to take the hijab off but it is wild how much of this video revealed my OWN struggles with validations despite that. May Allah accept all the effort you have made with your presence online and the character you’ve become. Very very keen on a table cloth prayer set, I’m sold.
Thankyou Farah!!! This was really enlightened me
i think i will start wearing it soon! most of my friends are hijabis and i usually wear a hood that covers most my hair anyway. ig the main things im worried about is heat intolerance and sensory issues. like i pass out easily due to heat so i hope i'll be okay during the summer.
You should wear bright light colour hijab and light weight material like chiffon
For the hot weather I use some bamboo fabric undercap and modal hijabs, very lightweight, you don't even feel it and it absorbs the sweat. Though I don't know in wich latitude you live sister so chiffon might do (it's light but it's polyester based). May Allah facilitates you 🙏🏼
Her videos always come at the right time 🙏🏼 May Allah bless you
I want to wear the hijab, I reverted very recently alhamduillah and live with parents at the moment. My mom is concerned that I’m becoming an “extremist” because I’m dressing modestly now and I haven’t even worn the hijab, she’s concerned because I don’t dress the way I used to (even though she would shame me for that too) all love and prayers to anyone who wears the hijab, even if they struggle with it. It’s difficult and I pray I have success with wearing the hijab full time, inshallah. The meaning of hijab is beautiful to me as someone who has been obsessed with my appearance since a child, I can be free of that stress.
May Allah make it easy for you and soften your mother's heart
Salaam, I just wanted to say how much you have helped me. It's hard nowadays to find influencers who stay true to not only islam but also to themselves. Your authenticity shines through your videos and I love how you do not sugarcoat the parts of islam that are seen as more difficult to talk about in a modern western society
thank you for making these videos, please continue to do so. Jazakallah khairan
my gawd the video quality is ✨✨
Salams sis, LOVE this dawah, Jazakallah khair ❤❤❤❤
I was wondering exactly that! Let’s us all dress like that!❤
May Allah make it easy for us women to put the hijab on and practicing modesty in a right way, Ameen♥️♥️ hijab is so much more than just a headscarf, it’s also the way you carry yourself, about your shyness, how you treat other people and lowering our gaze :)
you're my soul sister your videos are out at the exact time i need them. may allah bless you farah
I'm sooo happy 😊 will for sure purchase it ❤
I am so thankful I found you today Farah. Ma sha Allah 😅😂
Having a rough day. But this helped so much. Allah Bless you Sis.❤
You made me laugh and almost cry Farah! I love your podcast episodes, they make me feel seen. Your name really suits you, may Allah bless you.
It is strange but hearing you talk it brought me home to my own culture .. im not from a muslim background at all im from ireland and it made me realize i want to connect with my own culture.
Thank you for sharing authentically and sincerely. Jazak Allahu khair and may you be blessed greatly for your positive influence 🤍 listening to you this morning during my walk felt like I was having a much needed conversation with a friend who truly understands me. Alhamdulillah for the way Allah brings the right energy in our path at the right time :) Salam sister
You are a reason that made me want to fix my relationship with Allah and my hijab. I love you Farah, May Allah bless you
Your laughter is so lovely, and I love your opinion on social media being a luxury and not a need
JAZAKALLAH FOR THIS ❤much clearer about somethings I was confused about recently

I am your sister from Yemen, and by Allah I only spoke out of hunger and distress. My mother, my brothers, and I lessons and tears. We are in a situation that only God knows about. God is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs for those who broughtOh people, we are your sisters, by God 😭😭😭 We do not even find a loaf of bread inside the house that would satisfy you, oh nation of Muhammad. People are brothers. Oh God, make your righteous servants subservient to us. Oh God, make your righteous servants subservient to us. My appeal to every Muslim, oh Lord, if he sees this message, may He prolong his life, make him happy, and cover him. May God reward him. God is sufficient for me, and He is the best disposer of affairs. There is no power or strength except with God. Oh people, oh nation of Muhammad, oh people of goodness, oh people of mercy. We are your sisters and your children. By God, we do not even find a loaf of bread inside the house that would satisfy you. Oh nation of Muhammad, I only spoke out of extreme hunger and distress. My mother, sisters, and I are displaced from our homes because of the war. We are in a state that no one knows about except God. God is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs, against those who brought us to this state 💔💔 By God Almighty, I only wrote this appeal out of extreme poverty and poverty, oh people. I beg you by God Almighty, Lord of the Mighty Throne, that I do not have food at home. By God, my brothers and sisters have been sitting around for two days. Without food, by God our situation is very difficult, we are 4 people in the house and my father passed away and there is no one to support us and we live in a rented house and we cannot pay the rest of the rent. I am not lying to you nor deceiving you nor cheating you. I am a Yemeni girl displaced because of the war between me and my family over a rent dispute and the owner of the house. By God, my brother comes every day and humiliates us and talks about us and wants us to go out to the street because we are unable to pay him the rent. The neighbors saw us crying and talked to the neighbors again and gave us a deadline until the end of the week and we swore to God to let us out of the street now we are in arrears of 60 thousand Yemeni riyals for 3 months rent may God have mercy on us our country is suffering because of this war and we do not find our daily sustenance and we live my mother and sisters our father passed away may God have mercy on him and we do not have anyone in the world to come to us in these harsh circumstances my little sisters went out to the street and saw the neighbors eating and stood at their door giving them even a piece of bread and by God in whose hand is the heavens and the earth they closed the door and kicked them out and they came back crying dying of hunger no one has mercy on them and now the holiday has come back to me if no one of us helps us with a kilo of flour by God we will die of hunger brother I seek refuge in God and then in you and I want your help for the sake of God I ask you by God you love goodness and help me even if it is about the rent of the house send me a WhatsApp message on this number 00967711013075 and ask for my card name and send it and do not delay may God compensate you with all good My little sisters, look at their situation and help us and save us before they throw us out into the street and humiliate us or my family and I die of hunger. We ask you by God, if you are able to help us, do not delay on us, and may God reward you with good.'~~_«%•&»_~~_~&:»'////;&&;&;&;;&🎉😢😢😢😢;&;&&&//&..,!~~~♡♡~~~♡~~♡~•~•~•(･|.}]◤)~♡~♡~;l.i.i.i.i.i.l.|-.~▪︎~||--.,،:,,,,,،.،,....,...،.،،،.:;&;;&;&;;&;&&:&:&;;&:&&;&;😢😢
When that link to buy your prayer hijab drops… IM BUYING 💕🫶
Not that I have been wanting to take off my hijab lately, but I have been comparing myself to others a lot, both in appearance and character. As if I'm always and always less than others, whatever they do is right and whatever I do is wrong (in terms of character, within the halal boundaries). I don't have Instagram, so it makes things better I assume, but still, I use other social media platforms and compare myself to girls I see in real life. That is truly tiring, and I am trying to combat these feelings, as I know jealousy and a constant feeling of not being content with myself will poison my heart. Still, I struggle with it a lot. Hope it'll get better))
struggling to have self satisfaction may caused by us not seeing our full potential. may Allah bless you with ease… and like Farah 2nd tip, let’s create our personal project so along the way-with Allah’s guide ofc-we can craft the best version of ourselves☺️🤍
Actually the way you're struggling is how you're going to gain more thawab. Hijaab is not supposed to be easy and currently in this generation its more difficult but remember the time of the prophet Muhammad (s.a.w) it was tougher than today. You fighting those nafs of taking ur hijaab off is a jihad in itself. So, if you'd like to take it off, first of all the blessings of wearing it and protection will all go away. The thawab you're gaining will go away as well. You representing your self as a Muslimah will go away. On a side note hijaab is supposed to hide your beauty not to show it as our beauty is precious. As we muslimahs are precious and we are amazing and strong. But that's ur journey as well and of course it involve your decision and ur feelingthh as well but am here to tell you have sabr and it'll be worth it. I'm proud of how far you come 😊.
@@justkhadija6304 Thank you for that, but I wasn't telling that I struggle with hijab. In fact, I feel very comfortable with it. The purpose of my comment was to say that I struggle with self-comparison the most.
@ItsMeStarsky ohhh am sorry 😅 but I think look ik it's gonna sound so wrong, but we're better than them, dw😉. Ik it's hard, but insha Allah you’ll get through it.
Omg I was looking for that prayer gown everywhere so excited to preorder
Watched this throughout the day so good thank you
I don't even wear the hijab (might soon) but I love watching your videos. I laughed a lot & found it insightful.. and that second tip, i was like yalllaaaa say it 🤣
You'll never really know, you'll just gonna go with the flow 🤙🏻🤙🏻
That was awesome Farah, love you🤍
she has an instinct she knows what ummah needs and that’s why her posts are always on spot
Hi Farah... I cam across your videos few weeks ago and I am a fan. The knowledge, the humor, the modesty, the simplicity, the delivery of these videos are just on Point. 👍👍😍😍Also, I would like to ask/suggest that if you could do one of your episodes on 99 names of Allah. Like explain its meaning along with that would be really helpful. Idk why I am not able to find all 99 names, its just bits and pieces on UA-cam. So it would be really helpful. Thanks. Love from India❣
I started learning to wear wraparound scarf properly when i started sixth form andnow i can do it instantly so om happy i used to wear pull on scarf and still do but at home
I'm still in sixth form and yes I liked my own comment
Juma Mubarak Farah and don’t stop doing what you’re doing. It’s Effective ❤
Thank you farah
Good bless you farah❤️❤️
i wasnt thinking of taking it off, but i was feeling "uglier" compared to my non-hijabi friends. thank you, i needed this
Please make sure to have hijabi friends, and to follow fellow hijabis on social media if you are on them. Wallahi it really helps when you have a community of hijabi sisters they strengthen you
Its so lovable like a big sister speaking to me baby girl i love it ma shaa Allah ,Allah bless you and protect you and reward you Ameen
Привет. Farah, please speak a little bit in Russian in your next video. I wanna hear it, cuz when u once said "Польша" i was so surprised by your pure pronunciation :))
Farahh ! please come back! ! inneed you 😭 i keep looking for new uploads cuz i have watched everything alreadyy
Just started wearing full time hijab this week alhamdulillah. I LOVE YOU ALL, MUSLIM SISTERS… HIJABI OR NOT… ALLAHUMMAH BARIK ❤️
Also I’ll buy your prayer gown, YES!
Liked with in the first 26 seconds ❤ mashaa’Allah
Sahih al-Bukhari 6416
Narrated Mujahid:
`Abdullah bin `Umar said, "Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) took hold of my shoulder and said, 'Be in this world as if you were a stranger or a traveler." The sub-narrator added: Ibn `Umar used to say, "If you survive till the evening, do not expect to be alive in the morning, and if you survive till the morning, do not expect to be alive in the evening, and take from your health for your sickness, and (take) from your life for your death."
God bless you, Farah. 🤲
MashaaAllah Farah nice talk. I’d like to add to the point of someone having principles that are like pillar; it’s true these people don’t get influenced easily. But in order not to become like your environment, incase one doesn’t have an Islamic environment or Muslims around, one needs to still keep in touch with righteous company even if online and one needs to continue attending Islamic halqas of knowledge and Quran even if they are online. Allah subanhu ta’la has told us to stay and keep company with those who bow and prostrate (paraphrasing)
One more thing to clear for you all. Your best version is not a destination but an ongoing journey, it's not something u will achieve one day automatically and then be granted jannah. It's actually you trying everyday to your best level to be the best version and maintaining that every other day, cuz death ain't coming to u announced on a specific date before which u have to become the best version, u will die unexpectedly for sure but whats important is if u were maintaining that good character and those good deeds while dying
الله يجزيكي كل خير يارب وكالعادة your sense of humour is unmatched ❤
But I hoped you'd cover more aspects of the reasons that make a girl takes it off.
For example and sadly so, many and I mean MANY of my friends had taken it off because it seemed as a burden in their way to succeed in their careers, or to fit in with the western communities, or to not being judged, or denied of so many job opportunities because and only because of it.
I love u farah i will remember u in my dua(prayers) thankyou ❤
سبحان الله وبحمده سبحان الله العظيم لا اله إلا الله محمد رسول الله❤️
It did 45:19 Thank you Farah
My history with hijab hasn't been the best, but I decided to take it when I was 17. I still struggle sometimes, and there was this one time when Shaitan and my nafs started to whisper in my head negative things about hijab; about the point of it. It didn't help when I heard and saw that many of the influencers I knew (but that I didn't follow) were taking it off. But then, I had a bad dream in which I decided to take my hijab off when I was outside. But it felt so wrong. Like, seriously a sickening feeling dawned over me, and even when I woke up, it didn't leave me until afternoon. I realised then, that I had to keep it. Because Allah told all women to cover their hair. It also has become a part of identity, at this point. May Allah guide us all and give us hidayah and guide us to be steadfast in our deen. May Allah bless you all.
3:23 I just love your humour 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
OMG ISTG YOUR TIMING SCARES ME
REAL, Iguess its our guidance sent from Allah

Salam Farah, I was wondering if you can do a series going through the quran together? I love your perspective and love what you said about pondering the names etc just throwing this out there but i feel like it would be a nice space for you muslimahs to get in touch with the book
I love your anti branding branding table cloth shawl idea ...

Because I'm a male, hijab is for female 😉😉
my dear sister Farah, I'm fasting today and thinking of you. outside of hijab, it really is a beauty competition, and the goal is to get attention. but most of the time it's unwanted attention that we get. so it really is better to wear hijab.
Thank you❤😢
I've just started wearing the hijab this week, and I felt happy actually:]
May Allah bless you
İt's scary how ur video came while im thinking about it, it's a sign
Keep it on.. much support ♡♡
THATS CRAZY, IM PERSONALLY ATTACED WITH TITLE, MashaAllah the timing 😭😭
I actually want a prayer gown and I would definetely get it! Yes please❤
When you wear a hijab, you are obeying the commands of Allah, and you can expect great rewards in return. It is Allah's protection of your natural beauty. You are too precious to be "on display" for each man to see. It is Allah's preservation of your chastity. Allah purifies your heart and mind through the hijab. Allah raises your dignity through the hijab. When a strange man looks at you, he respects you because he sees that you respect yourself.
