I live in france and have started wearing the hijab a few months ago. It came with SO many challenges (lost my job, my friends and some family members) and it has revealed to me that most of the « good muslim people » in my life that i was looking up to are SUCH hypocrites. The HATED seeing me trying to get closer to Allah and would constantly tell me that either : I should not wear the hijab because to them it’s not fard or to take it off because i was not wearing it right. It also revealed to me that the BIGGEST hijabi hatters are muslim men. They do everything they can to invalidate the immense sacrifice that wearing the hijab is (especially in the west) and fun fact the kindest people to me have been my christian and atheist friends who supported me throughout my journey.
Oh my God that's heartbreaking. You must know that it's envy though. Real envy and jealousy that's making other Muslims hostile. They know you're doing the right thing, surpassing them by every metric, and so they lash out in these ugly ways. Stay strong, you're on the right path and Allah is by you and will reward you for the slightest perseverance you exercise. Stay strong, beautiful. To Allah we belong and shall return. ❤
I’m a guy but this video was real helpful for me as well. I understand how difficult it is to wear hijab I’ve seen it first hand and it’s great to hear how you overcame that challenge. Especially as someone who’s had low iman for so long this video was comforting.
I stumbled on your videos and this caught my attention.. I struggle with wearing the hijab And with my Iman and it was comforting to hear that I am not alone .. I am trying to work on my relationship with allah and strengthening my iman please pray for me I really need it .. I hope that I come one day to tell you that I am hijabi now enshallah soon thank you so much you have no idea how helpful this is
I am so inspired by your videos. You are a very wise woman. As a devout Christian I have to say that I am fascinated by Islam. Sometimes when I see my coworker praying in the middle of the day, making time for our God, I wish I could pray with them. Thank you for bringing so much wisdom and knowledge to us. I am not a person that participates in social media a lot, but I am learning from you. Thank you. May Allah blessyou.
To add to this you need to supportive people around you too,people who won’t judge you when you fall short but will uplift you..I lost a lot of friends last year but I gain a few who’s goals in seen aligned with mine, that supportive system is really everything..don’t be scared to be alone ,pray for destiny friends,friends you’ll do life with,manifest it
alhamdulillah, I love this video. I am a new hijab (revert) and questioning not covering daily. I can wear a head wrap but it gets hot when I am fully covered. I then have to think back to that feeling in my heart during Ramadan 2024 wear my heart was filled with joy when my TikTok was flooded with Ramadan videos and hijabs. I say Allah led me to Islam and I do this for Allah. But you inspired me to keep going and keep it on no matter what.
I started wearing the hijab Ramadan 2023 and I did it for Allah swt but an added bonus is the protection from the gaze of men. I always struggled with men looking and gawking and being disrespected to the point where if I saw a group of men (or even just 1 man) I would turn around bc ew and the hijab just shuts that all the way downnnnn lol I loved watching your video it made me feel less alone! Keep going with your videos 🫶🏼
I dont listen to hijab stories but u got me engaged and interested. I have an almost 2yr old daughter and if i happen to still be here in the stinky west (UK) then i kno what she may go thru listening to ur story. Thank you May Allaah keep our youth steadfast aaameen
This was a great video❤ I think it's so important to really appreciate the benefits of hijab beyond just the physical aspects. It's not just about covering ourselves, its also how we carry ourselves in terms of our values and actions which I find beautiful. And men have hijab too! I personally find hijab to be a source of confidence and comfort the more I wear it alhamdulilah and I wish everyone the same and more.
I’m glad that i see watched the video instead of just listening to your brief explanation as to why on TikTok. Not only did I learn about your own personal journey, i also was able relate to some of the things you said it was an eye opener. Thank you -asap😊
Girls, I need some advice, please😭 So I am 13 (ik I am young), but I want to wear the hijab so bad, and I feel like I am ready. I was born into a non practicant muslim family, like they never thought me how to pray but they would celebrate eid. I started learning Islam on my own since I was 11 and now I really want to wear a hijab. The main reason I don't do it is because I am scared of the judgment of my family and other Muslims and non Muslims
Hey my love! First of all, I want to commend you for your dedication and courage in wanting to embrace the hijab and deepen your connection with Islam at such a young age. 👏🏽👏🏽 That’s truly inspiring! It’s natural to feel nervous about how others might react, especially family and friends. You don’t have to make the change overnight. You can start by wearing the hijab in settings where you feel most comfortable, like when you're out with friends or at the mosque. Gradually, as you gain more confidence, you can expand to other environments. Since your family isn’t very practicing, they might not fully understand your decision. Try having an open and honest conversation with them about why wearing the hijab is important to you. Share what you’ve learned about Islam and how it has positively impacted your life. Surround yourself with supportive friends and community members. Finding a local Islamic center or online communities can provide you with encouragement and advice from others who have gone through similar experiences. Remember that your decision to wear the hijab is a personal one, between you and Allah. It’s important to stay true to your beliefs and intentions, even if others might not understand or support you right away. Unfortunately, judgments from others can be challenging. Try to remind yourself that people’s opinions don’t define you or your worth. Focus on the positive aspects of your decision and the personal fulfillment it brings you. Look for role models who have successfully navigated similar challenges. Reading about their journeys can provide inspiration and practical advice on how to deal with any obstacles you might face. Lastly, always remember that you are not alone. Many people start their journey towards wearing the hijab and practicing Islam at different stages in life, and everyone’s path is unique. Your courage and sincerity in wanting to follow your faith is admirable, and I’m confident that with time, you’ll find the support and confidence you need. Wishing you all the best on your journey. 🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽
Your euphemism about wearing the hijab and college fits the situation I am in right now perfectly. 😂 I am struggling with the hijab whilst struggling (while watching this video to keep me awake at 3am) to finish my dissertation.
