@@leanadeeb I love how you talk like an educated person.. just take my advice .. stay away from some uneducated Pakistani women or girls those who say wearing hejab doesn’t mean they are pious.. or wearing half dress doesnt mean the women are corrupted…you’ll find them on some unpopular side of the Pakistani channels.
Please make more videos where you’re talking in this way! Your conviction nearly brought me to tears! As a Christian and growing content creator, it’s so hard to ignore those feelings of needing external validation, it was really humbling to hear that someone as successful and dedicated to their faith journey like you goes through similar things
This video truly brought tears to my eyes for so many reasons! Without going into too many details- I have been seeking for clarity within myself for so long especially when it comes to my faith (I was raised muslim) and how to present myself; I am still working on that journey at 38 married with three kids🙏You are a true inspiration and I am blessed to have come across your channel!
The male gaze, or just people's gaze, and seeking validation from it is crucial to Western culture; we live in a society where women are a commodity, and our youth, body and sexuality have a price tag. So, I appreciate your raw honesty. Modesty is different for people, but I enjoy how I dress modestly even though I do not wear the hijab.
y'all don't understand how hard it is to transition the way leana did, and the risk she took. Allah is the best of planners, this was written leana . i'm proud of you luv!
I'm so sorry that you are not properly guided and have a lack of knowledge of what Islam truly is, you probably have learned about it from western TV, not from the Quran. The only thing that is left for you is to learn how much power Islam actually gives to women and to society in general. If everyone would have followed true Islam this world would have been perfect. @ayrinavina7474
Love this video thank you !!! “I’m gonna be me. Whoever likes me for me, likes me and whoever doesn’t like me goodbye” love that I wanna be locked with myself too ! This video was awesome
I just want to say Im grateful I found you prior to your modesty journey - as someone who was ignorant of not only the Islamic faith but especially of the hijab, it gave me an opportunity to be curious and learn. While Im not religious, I find the sacrifice you made to be SO inspiring. I can only imagine how challenging it was for you especially as a fitness influencer where theres a lot of pressure to show your gains and physique. Im so glad and proud to see the results of your decisions.
After watching I feel so encouraged by Allah. Because hearing how sticking to your beliefs and placing them at the centre of your business brings true & long lasting value (even if it’s not immediate financial value) is something I’ve been wanting to hear a Muslimah business owner say. May Allah bless you and those around you Leana. Ameen
Mann i love this video😭 i just started my first year in uni and I was planning to wear my hijab from next year onward but after listening to you I've decided to wear it this year itself. I was just thinking about it the whole day and this video came on perfect time🥺Thank you so much, it really did help a lot😭 May Allah bless you❤🥰
Assalamu'alaikum Fathima. May Allah SWT make it easy for you in your hijab journey.😊 I'm born muslim. Your comment reminds me of how I chose the day to wear hijab about 20yrs ago. It took me about a year (grade 11 ish) from the moment I knew I wanted to wear hijab to the actual day I started wearing one (mid summer before entering Grade 12). At first I planned to wear it immediately, but then I was thinking of prom in grade 12 (ooh the dresses, the parties, the fun) and my imagination jumped ahead to how my uni experience would be like if I worn hijab (I thought I'd feel excluded, friendless..all these fears). Then moved up to my imaginary first job (what if they discriminated against me because of the hijab?). After going back and forth a while, hidayah finally came to me alhamdulillah and I remembered, "What if you die tomorrow and you still haven't worn hijab? How are you going to explain that to Allah?"...and you know what? all the fears were just that..fears in your head. First day of school, the only other muslimah friend at school ran towards me and gave me the biggest hug 😍 it was so comforting. At uni, I had the bestest group of friends (non muslims) I could ever have, I met more muslims because they know just from the hijab that I'm muslim (smiling and saying salaam to strangers on the street actually feels nice). At supermarkets and cafes, because of my hijab, strangers kindly remind me if there's pork/alcohol in food/drinks that I'm having. So, truly, the hijab is a protection in many ways. Embrace the hijab and stay connected to Allah SWT. Enjoy!
Leana, you are such an inspiration. I love how confidently you are able to talk about faith and God, which is much needed in today's day and age, where many people feel lost in life and are living without any purpose/goal. Keep up the good work, keep preaching, and looking forward to your future videos!
I’m a Christian however I have much respect for Islam ☪️ . I love the consistency such as the daily prayers. The world we live has dark forces working none stop to snuff the good out… the Bible quotes in Proverbs 4:10-27 (must read) God gives us the secret to life and warns us the wicked don’t rest until they do evil or hurt someone… the wicked are like those that stumble in the dark they can’t see what hurts them…. God provides us this secret to avoid…b/c “misery loves company” We can’t do this unless we are firmly locked in with God/Allah/Yahweh. For instance, distraction is one of the major tools used to steer us away from God leaving us more susceptible to wicked forces… the story of Job is beautiful as well with all that the Devil took from Job he never allow those forces to consume him. Instead he shaved himself bare and went directly to God. Keep it up, I love this for you. 🙏🏾
i’m not religious or modest but your videos give me so much comfort. idk how to explain it but every time you speak i feel grounded and calm, it’s really beautiful
You are absolutely beautiful inside and out Leana. I was here before your modesty journey and I am glad to be here now to watch how you progress. You truly are an inspiration. Best of luck in your journey 🤍
I cried a lot after watching this not because I’m sad but because I’m happy for you Leana . I’m an Egyptian girl trying to seek in this life to be better and l have one thing to say as a Muslim and human :Leana I really do love you and I always support you from here ❤😊💪🫡😊🥰
You truly have no idea the affect you had on my life I look up to you so much and I have been recently trying to find ways to get more modest wearing the hijab because I have some one to look up to so thank you so much. ❤❤
I love how you've had thoughts nd questions about Islam which brought you closer to Islam... albeit coming from a Muslim family.. Rediscovering Islam.. .. It's just so beautiful.. MashAllah ❤
Wow! I'm glad I saw this video. I had seen a couple of your meal prep shorts, but after this video I subscribed. What a beautiful and intelligent woman who's making great impact in this world! God bless you 🙏🏾
سبحان الله! أنتِ دليل حي على أن "من ترك أمرا لله أبدله الله خيرا منه".. ثبتك الله وبارك فيكِ.. نيالك قديش تأثروا فيك ناس و كسبتِ أجر واضح انه نيتك كانت صادقة واللي عملتيه مو سهل أبدا.. الله يسعد قلبك ويوفقك❤❤❤
I love this message ❤THANK YOU Leana… I was beginning to think something was wrong with me as I literally cover up at the gym and felt awkward, but I refuse to wear tight bottoms & tops for men to be staring inappropriately. I'm a Christian and want to cover up to please my King God.
I’ve never related to a video so much. I started wearing hijab around 3 months after you, & honestly you were a BIG inspiration. I feel like once I saw you wearing hijab it was like another push for me that I needed, because I also saw myself in you before wearing hijab. The things you discussed at the beginning resonate with me so much, I felt like I was re-teaching myself about Islam & modesty, because I had to know why. Thank you Leana ❤❤❤
Sis! Keep up the amazing work. How you described the hijab and relying on your soul/characteristics for your confidence is Soo true! I mean especially for those of us who have grown in the west. I know it's a business but so amazing that gym shark is willing to step up and not just with a token hijab with a logo on it, but really provide a range of clothing! I love it. I'm literally telling anyone who'll listen to get on the gym shark bandwagon
Love u Leana💗 you always gives me soo much positivity, i'm ur subscriber from the earliest of times and seeing you this confident in hijab gives me so much confidence, thankyou for everything 🫂♥️✨
As a man who struggles with seeking external validation, I can say that I am now considering dressing more modest to align more with my faith. As always, thank you Leana! ❤️ Update: This inspired me to let go of something that has kept me from being my true self. I recently got accepted to be an ambassador for RAW nutrition but I don't even take supplements because I have an abnormal kidney function. As hard as it was to let this opportunity go, I chose to walk by faith. This video has truly inspired me to take that leap of faith and letting go of something that has been weighing me down so thank you again!
i love how you shared when you're covered you respect yourself more. i also appreciate how you talk about being sexualized. beautiful how you use your popular platform to share these ideas, im sure many people benefit greatly 🙏
Leana, this is so inspiring! Love how you blend fitness, faith, and mental strength. Congrats on the huge partnership-well deserved! Keep motivating us all!
I’m so excited for this collection to come out! Finding modest workout clothing is a struggle, and some companies come out with bizarre options of what they think modest workout clothing is. So happy to know that an actual hijabi who works out is behind this!
so grateful to have had the opportunity to speak with you on a topic that is not talked about enough in the fitness space❤ thank you for all of the work that you're doing to make modest activewear more accessible to the fitness community. i can't wait to see what the future entails!
hey Leana I genuinely want to take a moment to give you a huge hug, wherever you are. What you did, in our era- is hard. But it’s actually breathtakingly beautiful. You don’t even know how happy I was for you when I saw you with an hijab- you were never shining as bright mashallah 😭. And I am so proud of you girlie. Used to love you before and after you became a hijabi and I love you ever so much. Truly, Allah chose you to embark on a journey with not only your deen and getting closer to him, but look how many women you’ve inspired. I just want to say I hope I can meet you one day, you deserve all the blessings of this world and the akhira, and may Allah protect you and give you utmost strength ♥️KEEP GOING GIRLLL💪
this is my fifth month wearing the hijab and , however i love the fact that i am closer to god , but i always feel that i look so much better without it , and i feel ugly with it , but this video made me realize that life is too short , but the other life is not , you all look gorgeous and confident and i should be this person, thank u so much you really help me 🤍
I was born and raised Pentecostal (iykyk). Within the last few years post-pandemic I was faced with the challenge to question my own faith. Questions like, “Why do I believe in this?”. Fast forward to today, I had to unlearn a lot and relearn some truths about my faith. But now I made this my own faith and not the faith my parent gave me. MODESTY in the life of Pentecostal women also looks different and has many reasons that align with everything you said Leana ❤ I’s incredible to hear that! I wish there were more clothing lines for Pentecostal women who have decided to wear ✨the skirt✨ for gym, outdoor, & scrubs for the healthcare profession. I just want to wear something that gives GOD the ✨glory✨ and not attract the wrong attention. Thank you Leana for being an inspiration to ladies across the globe…even in different walks of faith! 🤍🩷 MUCH LOVE FROM HOUSTON!
Im so inspired by you♥️ thank you for guiding your audience through a good path. Much love and respect for you!♥️ May god keep sending blessings your way so that you keep speaking truth🙏🏻
I really love this so much. As a beauty + lifestyle creator on my modesty journey & getting closer to god. This is a community I would love to be part of 🙏🏼❤️
This the push that I needed. I started being modest. I changed all my gym wear to cover my body. I am ready to take the next step and cover my hair. Because i feel beautiful covered. I am so grateful for you. May Allah rewards you 🙏🏽
I love this! I am not religious at this point, even though I have felt a shift pulling me more towards a structured practice. I admire you so much. Sending love to you and everyone reading this.
a couple months ago, i was crossing the road when some random guy came & grabbed my ass from behind. mind you, I’m fully clothed. Wearing hijab and a long skirt. And literally only my face & hands can be seen. Cat-calling is one thing but this was the first time I had ever gotten sexually harassed in broad dailylight, i was so shocked … that i just stood there, frozen & in tears. I can’t even begin to fathom the height of harassment women face when they’re not adhering to modesty. Ofc wearing the hijab protects us from the perversions of some men but unfortunately we’re in the day and age were even the hijab has become fetishised. And some people are just foul and filthy. So i think as Muslim women, we have to remind ourselves, why we are doing this, why we are wearing it … not for cultural reasons, not as a fashion accessory but because of Allah’s commands. Because we want to please him in the best of ways, even if it’s difficult at times, so we can be amongst the best of his creations ✨
Yeah you’ll are the creations of Gods. You do everything pure and innocent to please him as you said. Is that true? I’m just interested about that cuz no one’s literally talking about this religion.
I'm very sorry you had to go through that experience, it happened to me also when I was a teen and the only thing that I can say is Allah is watching everything, and the ones who hurt others are getting their punishment either in Dunia or after(Akhirah), and you know that and I'm proud of you for staying strong, may Allah protect you always my sister.
Leana I am so happy that you are living a purposeful life. Indeed, having found your purpose and working towards it is the biggest blessing. You are na inspiration to all us women. May Allah bless you and may you see new heights of success in this dunya and the akhira amen.❤❤❤
❤❤❤ I'm glad for this important video and your gift and comeback. Crazy that I have been away from the internet for a minute now myself and I find this conversation and your words today, much success to you, Inshallah
I know how you feel like. I'm in that journey right now. You are an older version of me❤ I'm glad I found someone who is just like me, and now I know since you walked the path before me. Now I learn from you and avoid situations that we are in as a female. 18 yr old muslima from RSA
I love how your taking about modesty it made me a little teary because I’ve always struggled why some Muslim girls are and some are not and I didn’t know where I fit. Still trying to work through it ❤
Mashallah sis, may Allah protect and preserve you. You are truly an inspiration to many women. I was tearing up listening to your story of modesty and it resonated because I have 5 daughters and each one chose to put the hijab on without force. It’s true what you said about connecting with your religion and going through that journey which gives it meaning and purpose. God chooses certain people to be an example for guidance and you are one of them.
You’re one of the people on my mind when I think of the hijab & my journey with it. My story is similar to yours, so I appreciate this video a lot. May Allah ease our affairs
My whole live I have never left a comment on youtube for any video, but for this one, I have to. I am just discovering your channel for the first time and watching a couple of your videos before this one, I really liked your approach and the content you share. I was so shocked and inspired to hear that you put on your crown not that long ago. I am struggling with making that decision but already pay a lot of attention to dressing modestly. Thank you so much for representing our religion with the way you talk about inclusivity, emphasizing that we shouldn't hate or judge anybody's journey. It is such a big part of islam to respect everyone around you but muslims and our religion as whole is often considered very strict and radical. Thank you for sharing your story so openly and thank you for your inspirational content!
Plzz make more video regarding the differences u noticed n how to train ourselves to not to seek external validation ...n also about the nxt step of how to make ourselves as confident and satisfied in this modesty so that we can transmit this concept to the mass ... Leana u r really a motivation❤may u be blessed more
Assalaam Alaikum sister! It’s nice to hear words of wisdom from a fellow revert Alhamdulillah! I reverted back in 2020. May Allah ﷻ bless you in your journey, Ameen ya Rabbilalamin!
MashaAllah Leana, you have no idea how much you inspired me everyday especially when I feel low, I know it’s not easy doing what you are doing today but I pray may Allah grant you the highest rank of Jannah for keep inspiring us🤲🏻
it is so true we are all on our own journeys. I have this desire to start wearing abayas. I have spent too much money and time on fashion and searching for the right bag/shoes/then you need the top, the bottom etc. I recently came from a trip from the Caribbean and nothing made me feel more beautiful than walking around at sunrise when the workers and a few were awake. I was in my hijab and abaya and felt so beautiful and so free.Even though I had beautiful colourful summer resort clothing. I was listening to nasheeds and I felt so alive. Worship the Creator over the creation. I started to wear hijab after I reverted about 12/13 yrs. I loved hearing stores of how the P s women would cover their heads and bodies to be covered when they met thier Rabb should something happen in the night in their homes that was back then. I ended up having some opportunities for dawah too which was a gift more for myself. Slowly I am learning to not care about what other's think. It is hard though as we always want to be liked by everyone. Glad you found your tribe sis.
So proud of you that you are being so honest sharing your thoughts and experiences with us, I used to be the exact same way and now we are on the same path, The path of being closer to our creator ❤, May Allah bless you Leana
You know what... In this life we are created by god to be trying to get better to try to get closer to him.. As you said at the end of the video that there are some Muslims how just are judging everbody not seeing how this person is trying to take good steps in his life.. Actually as a Muslims girl that is going to college in less than a year (in sha'allah) even the community around me is trying to push me away from taking a step to modesty by saying "you're still young" which not make any sense to me... So this vid was on time for me so really thank you ❤️
The thing about life is it is precious. You never know what can be in your realm ( horizontal expenditure) the main thing of being a person of age is using methods and then unifying yourself as a whole ! morals or values- are created much more every sec by life moments .🙏🏻
Hey Sister, thank you for all your positiv impact and inspiration your transformation and path rly strengthened my Din Mashaallah for everything you accomplished and will do in future Inshaallah

It's not easy what she did and i m genuinely sooo proud of her! I have an immense respect for her, not everyone is able to be so transparent and genuine with their audience!❤ May Allah bless her with even more success
What a beautiful message. I’ve watched your videos from the beginning. You truly are inspirational. I’m Christian and this hit right where it needs to in my own journey to being closer to my faith and finding out what it truly means to be unapologetic to myself and not a mirror of what others think I should be. Thank you speaking out loud what a lot of women think in silence. 🤍✨
wow. such a powerful comment, thank you so much for sharing with me. Gives me the reassurance that im able to help others, sending you so much love on your journey faith. May God make it easy for you ❤

I love this message and I’m glad that you make the difference in this world … accepting it requires a lot of vulnerability I’m proud of you 🎉
wow- keep up the faith brother. always stick to the truth and righteousness
Put on my hijab after my hajj at 29 yo can’t be happier hamdoulilah proud of you leana hamdoulillah
i love how you shared when you're covered you respect yourself more. i also appreciate how you talk about being sexualized. beautiful how you use your popular platform to share these ideas, im sure many people benefit greatly 🙏
Leana, this is so inspiring! Love how you blend fitness, faith, and mental strength. Congrats on the huge partnership-well deserved! Keep motivating us all!
thank you for this message Leana. i have been wondering so recently about starting my modesty journey… this is definitely been a sign from God.
Best of luck...May god guide you and give you strength
I’m so excited for this collection to come out! Finding modest workout clothing is a struggle, and some companies come out with bizarre options of what they think modest workout clothing is. So happy to know that an actual hijabi who works out is behind this!
so grateful to have had the opportunity to speak with you on a topic that is not talked about enough in the fitness space❤ thank you for all of the work that you're doing to make modest activewear more accessible to the fitness community. i can't wait to see what the future entails!
Get married alesha🧕😊
love that you showcase your authentic self in this world so focused on superficiality ❤
Thank you for sharing ❤️ you are such a beautiful and sincere soul. May God continue to elevate you in this life and the next!
I love this video❤ and I appreciate your honesty in a very periodical journey. You’re an inspiration and i admire your faith 🙏🏼
hey Leana I genuinely want to take a moment to give you a huge hug, wherever you are. What you did, in our era- is hard. But it’s actually breathtakingly beautiful. You don’t even know how happy I was for you when I saw you with an hijab- you were never shining as bright mashallah 😭. And I am so proud of you girlie. Used to love you before and after you became a hijabi and I love you ever so much. Truly, Allah chose you to embark on a journey with not only your deen and getting closer to him, but look how many women you’ve inspired. I just want to say I hope I can meet you one day, you deserve all the blessings of this world and the akhira, and may Allah protect you and give you utmost strength ♥️KEEP GOING GIRLLL💪
Leena I want to congratulate you from the bottom of my heart!I love your style and mission.
So proud of you sister Leana...❤ this video literally touched my heart as a fellow hijabi.🥰
this is my fifth month wearing the hijab and , however i love the fact that i am closer to god , but i always feel that i look so much better without it , and i feel ugly with it , but this video made me realize that life is too short , but the other life is not , you all look gorgeous and confident and i should be this person, thank u so much you really help me 🤍
Your reward is amazing inshallah. I mean you are helping so many other women modesty! May Allah reward you and protect you!
you are so graceful and humble, the true beauty really shows
This is so beyond beautiful, raw and authentic. Ya rab may Allah protect you and strengthen you.
Every word you said is truly meaningful Leana!
I was born and raised Pentecostal (iykyk). Within the last few years post-pandemic I was faced with the challenge to question my own faith. Questions like, “Why do I believe in this?”. Fast forward to today, I had to unlearn a lot and relearn some truths about my faith. But now I made this my own faith and not the faith my parent gave me.
MODESTY in the life of Pentecostal women also looks different and has many reasons that align with everything you said Leana ❤ I’s incredible to hear that!
I wish there were more clothing lines for Pentecostal women who have decided to wear ✨the skirt✨ for gym, outdoor, & scrubs for the healthcare profession.
I just want to wear something that gives GOD the ✨glory✨ and not attract the wrong attention.
Thank you Leana for being an inspiration to ladies across the globe…even in different walks of faith! 🤍🩷
MUCH LOVE FROM HOUSTON!
Hi gebuine question, what is pentecostal? Is it something to do with paganism or Christianity? I've never heard of this before thanks.
Thank you for this beautiful video. It gives an insight into how honest and genuine you are as a person!
I just came across this video, but I listened to every single wise word you said!!! Powerful words indeed! You are very inspirational x
Im so inspired by you♥️ thank you for guiding your audience through a good path. Much love and respect for you!♥️ May god keep sending blessings your way so that you keep speaking truth🙏🏻
I really love this so much. As a beauty + lifestyle creator on my modesty journey & getting closer to god. This is a community I would love to be part of 🙏🏼❤️
This the push that I needed. I started being modest. I changed all my gym wear to cover my body. I am ready to take the next step and cover my hair. Because i feel beautiful covered.
I am so grateful for you.
May Allah rewards you 🙏🏽
I love this! I am not religious at this point, even though I have felt a shift pulling me more towards a structured practice. I admire you so much. Sending love to you and everyone reading this.
My sister introduced me to your content. She admires you alot. Thank you for being an inspiration for many. May Allah bless you immensely.
I love your journey..the closer you get to God the closer you get to your self, there are ups and downs but never judge yourself be your best freind ❤
So beautiful. Love the way you are spreading modesty . Really respect you alot .
So proud of you Leana! You do you!
a couple months ago, i was crossing the road when some random guy came & grabbed my ass from behind. mind you, I’m fully clothed. Wearing hijab and a long skirt. And literally only my face & hands can be seen. Cat-calling is one thing but this was the first time I had ever gotten sexually harassed in broad dailylight, i was so shocked … that i just stood there, frozen & in tears. I can’t even begin to fathom the height of harassment women face when they’re not adhering to modesty.
Ofc wearing the hijab protects us from the perversions of some men but unfortunately we’re in the day and age were even the hijab has become fetishised. And some people are just foul and filthy. So i think as Muslim women, we have to remind ourselves, why we are doing this, why we are wearing it … not for cultural reasons, not as a fashion accessory but because of Allah’s commands. Because we want to please him in the best of ways, even if it’s difficult at times, so we can be amongst the best of his creations ✨
Yeah you’ll are the creations of Gods. You do everything pure and innocent to please him as you said. Is that true? I’m just interested about that cuz no one’s literally talking about this religion.
I'm very sorry you had to go through that experience, it happened to me also when I was a teen and the only thing that I can say is Allah is watching everything, and the ones who hurt others are getting their punishment either in Dunia or after(Akhirah), and you know that and I'm proud of you for staying strong, may Allah protect you always my sister.
Leana I am so happy that you are living a purposeful life. Indeed, having found your purpose and working towards it is the biggest blessing. You are na inspiration to all us women. May Allah bless you and may you see new heights of success in this dunya and the akhira amen.❤❤❤
❤❤❤ I'm glad for this important video and your gift and comeback. Crazy that I have been away from the internet for a minute now myself and I find this conversation and your words today, much success to you, Inshallah
I know how you feel like. I'm in that journey right now. You are an older version of me❤
I'm glad I found someone who is just like me, and now I know since you walked the path before me. Now I learn from you and avoid situations that we are in as a female. 18 yr old muslima from RSA
I love how your taking about modesty it made me a little teary because I’ve always struggled why some Muslim girls are and some are not and I didn’t know where I fit. Still trying to work through it ❤
Mashallah sis, may Allah protect and preserve you. You are truly an inspiration to many women. I was tearing up listening to your story of modesty and it resonated because I have 5 daughters and each one chose to put the hijab on without force. It’s true what you said about connecting with your religion and going through that journey which gives it meaning and purpose. God chooses certain people to be an example for guidance and you are one of them.
You’re one of the people on my mind when I think of the hijab & my journey with it. My story is similar to yours, so I appreciate this video a lot. May Allah ease our affairs
this is so inspirational!! thank you for sharing your journey❤
My whole live I have never left a comment on youtube for any video, but for this one, I have to. I am just discovering your channel for the first time and watching a couple of your videos before this one, I really liked your approach and the content you share. I was so shocked and inspired to hear that you put on your crown not that long ago. I am struggling with making that decision but already pay a lot of attention to dressing modestly. Thank you so much for representing our religion with the way you talk about inclusivity, emphasizing that we shouldn't hate or judge anybody's journey. It is such a big part of islam to respect everyone around you but muslims and our religion as whole is often considered very strict and radical. Thank you for sharing your story so openly and thank you for your inspirational content!
I greet you from Iran🤝🏼
I hope you will always be successful☀️
Plzz make more video regarding the differences u noticed n how to train ourselves to not to seek external validation ...n also about the nxt step of how to make ourselves as confident and satisfied in this modesty so that we can transmit this concept to the mass ...
Leana u r really a motivation❤may u be blessed more
Thanks. I am not Muslim yet. I’m pondering joining the deen. What you say about external validation hits home.
Assalaam Alaikum sister! It’s nice to hear words of wisdom from a fellow revert Alhamdulillah! I reverted back in 2020. May Allah ﷻ bless you in your journey, Ameen ya Rabbilalamin!
MashaAllah Leana, you have no idea how much you inspired me everyday especially when I feel low,
I know it’s not easy doing what you are doing today but I pray may Allah grant you the highest rank of Jannah for keep inspiring us🤲🏻
Girl, you are amazing and an inspiration to all of us 🌸✨
I wear the hijab in 16/9/2024
Thank you so much to encourage me ❤❤❤❤and I love you so much ❤
What a trailblazer for the modest . Keep up the amazing work you're doing!!❤
Proud of you Leana and your are an inspiration to us 💐
it is so true we are all on our own journeys. I have this desire to start wearing abayas. I have spent too much money and time on fashion and searching for the right bag/shoes/then you need the top, the bottom etc. I recently came from a trip from the Caribbean and nothing made me feel more beautiful than walking around at sunrise when the workers and a few were awake. I was in my hijab and abaya and felt so beautiful and so free.Even though I had beautiful colourful summer resort clothing. I was listening to nasheeds and I felt so alive. Worship the Creator over the creation. I started to wear hijab after I reverted about 12/13 yrs. I loved hearing stores of how the P s women would cover their heads and bodies to be covered when they met thier Rabb should something happen in the night in their homes that was back then. I ended up having some opportunities for dawah too which was a gift more for myself. Slowly I am learning to not care about what other's think. It is hard though as we always want to be liked by everyone. Glad you found your tribe sis.
Thank you for reminding us to love ourselves ❤
So proud of you that you are being so honest sharing your thoughts and experiences with us, I used to be the exact same way and now we are on the same path, The path of being closer to our creator ❤, May Allah bless you Leana
Gym Shark, thank you for promoting modesty in your product you have opened up an avenue for women seeking modesty in sportswear, W move!
i love you leana, you inspire me so much 💗💗💗💗
Girl you are shining !!
You know what... In this life we are created by god to be trying to get better to try to get closer to him.. As you said at the end of the video that there are some Muslims how just are judging everbody not seeing how this person is trying to take good steps in his life.. Actually as a Muslims girl that is going to college in less than a year (in sha'allah) even the community around me is trying to push me away from taking a step to modesty by saying "you're still young" which not make any sense to me... So this vid was on time for me so really thank you ❤️
The thing about life is it is precious. You never know what can be in your realm ( horizontal expenditure) the main thing of being a person of age is using methods and then unifying yourself as a whole ! morals or values- are created much more every sec by life moments .🙏🏻
Hey Sister, thank you for all your positiv impact and inspiration your transformation and path rly strengthened my Din

What a beautiful message. I’ve watched your videos from the beginning. You truly are inspirational. I’m Christian and this hit right where it needs to in my own journey to being closer to my faith and finding out what it truly means to be unapologetic to myself and not a mirror of what others think I should be. Thank you speaking out loud what a lot of women think in silence. 🤍✨
