Thank you so much for subtitle
It's really helpful to understand clearly about Islam

Tesneem, I just had a surreal moment. My name is Lily and I am a school social worker. I was guest speaking about Islam in America for our middle schoolers in preparation for a school trip to the Diyanet center in Lanham and found your amazing channel. I am only now realizing that we were roommates at IIIT in 2015. I’m so happy to know you’re flourishing and will continue to use your wonderful videos for my class. Sending best wishes your way.
We are veiled, protected and empowered.
Alhamdullillah for being covered.

I am a Muslim woman of hispanic descent born in NYC. I am very happy to wear my hijab. No one has ever oppressed me or made me wear the hijab against my will. God willing (insha Allah) will wear it till the day i die. I am a blessed and happy muslim woman 🙏
MashAllah
Masha Allah🌙 You Go Girl,..😆👏😆
@@ALLAHwithdaughterALLAT If you aren't a scholar then don't type, my guy.
@@ALLAHwithdaughterALLAT I already know about that hadith but the roads are pretty big here in America, so there's no point of doing that and I usually don't talk to strangers, lol and do you know the definition of a cult? because it seems like you don't.
@@ALLAHwithdaughterALLAT First off in response of your other reply, I'm not a taqiyya. Second off that refers to a reward in Jannah. Also then why do it says in the Quran, that all believers, men and women will have a reward? Doesn't that indicate women will be there too?
Wore niqab for the first time, came out for walk, searched Yaqeen and this video pops up! All I needed for the motivation. How Allah makes you see things at the perfect time Subhan Allah🥺💕
Allah is so Merciful ❤

If wearing clothes (as opposed to nudism) has no psychological benefits (in regards to covering up, not decorating), why do so many wear them (clothes)?
I’d appreciate if you answer! It would mean lot if you answer this. Thanks!
I love the explanation by Dr Alkiek! 😎
Whenever I meet a woman wearing her Hijab, I almost immediately give her the recognition and dignity she deserves. My emotions are empathy, as I do NOT see it as a symbol of oppression but of faith and identity. My empathetic response is for the inane questions she has to answer, explaining why she covers up 🙄
I got into an argument with my ex-therapist whether or not the Hijab (barrier) is a symbol of oppression - this therapist, being a mental health professional ought to have known better! 😒
Salam Alekum - Ramadan Mubarak from Western Washington! 💗🙏
Allahumma, ameen!!!
Thank you for this! Happy world hijab day everyone 🥰

I was literally thinking about this today as many ask why we do and you came to answer so eloquently😊. The last sentence is so powerful "...how they can alter perception in the world"👏🏿

Thank you very much! Even though I, in my heart, know why I am wearing it, it can be hard to express to people, especially who are already looking at it from a judgmental standpoint. You put it in such an eloquent way!
your prespective and what you said has really empowered me to want to take that step towards the hijab. Jazakallah khair for your video may Allah protect you and your family and bring peace and blessings to you.
Jazakallahu khairan for taking the time to make this concise yet comprehensive video about the hijab. I will be sending this forward when necessary inshaAllah
as someone of non-Muslim descent I absolutely enjoy learning about different perspectives of life through the eyes of different people, as human one of our many obligation is to respect each others roots, culture, and religion, we all live differently unique lives that deserve respect and recognition. Thank you for educating us!

I have now decided to start wearing it in school from 10th (I'm in 9th grade) only to 2 months (or 1 and 1/2 month) remaining..
I'm nervous to tell my parents about it
I have already tried before but still they didn't agree
Can anyone please help me and give some tips 🙏

You have absolutely nothing to be ashamed of! 🙏
I'm not sure where in the world you live, but people should respect you for your faith and how you affirm your faith!
Sal;am Alekum!💗🙏
Thank you for your input. INSHA- ALLAH with more education and awareness people will overcome their fear of Hijab. Every day is a woman day if we worthy ourselves.
I am ortodox and i will start to wear hijab and clothes that cover my body. I chose and love modesty its the most beautiful thing that i saw on women’s i always love this when i saw them i stare and smile and wish to be beautiful as they are and have the faith as they have 🥹😍🥰 just lovely!!!
Protect her it all costs.
Jazaakallahu khairun
The thing is there are different people with different personalities. Many Muslim woman would like hijab and many would dislike hijab. It is just that both such woman deserve to be respected without judgment. If you are a Muslim and think woman without hijab are any less human then you are the problem.
Beautiful answer.
Mashallah Barkah Allah fekee… beautifully said and very educational… Thank You!
As a non muslim the hijab has never bothered me. I went to high school with a girl who was muslim I really liked her as a person, she never wronged me. I've had muslim acquaintances and really I treat them like they should be as human beings just like anyone else.
I am not muslim but i am LDS, we are christians. Many people mock our modesty. They mock our garments. While muslim and LDS may not share exact values. My friend is muslim and whenever we discussed our religious beliefs. Many concepts are similar and we could relate. Shes a lebanese muslim. She doesnt wear a hijab but her mother does. I appreciate the hijab the way i would want other faiths to appreciate garments. We dont show our faith outwardly besides simple modest clothing. Thank you for sharing your beliefs. I enjoy learning about the hijab.

2 - whoever says SubhanAllahi wa biHamdihi, Subhan-Allahi 'l-`adheem (Glory be to Allah, and Praise, Glory be to Allah, the Supreme)
Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Two words are light on the tongue, weigh heavily in the balance, they are loved by the Most Merciful One " [Sahih al-Bukhari; #7:67, Sahih Muslim, #4:2071]

Thank you Dr. Tesneem, Mashallah for the wonderful reminder and lesson. May Allah reward you and your family for benefiting the Muslim Ummah. I wonder if I respectfully can ask to be our guest speaker to speak for a half an hour or so to our Muslim community members mostly mothers this coming Sunday on Zoom? We are a group of sisters, from Toronto, Canada who organize a biweekly zoom session for our Muslim Audience between 30 to 40 individuals talk about any beneficent topic. It is an informal gathering where people participate and ask questions. I have been listening to your series on you-tube for a while and Mash-Allah there is a lot we can learn from you. Insha-Allah, let me if this is possible. Jazkallah sister.

We muslim women decide for ourselves if we want to wear the hijab or not, we dont want anyone else to speak for us. If you ever see one of us wearing a hijab or not wearing a hijab, do not judge, and concentrate on your own problems
اللهم صل وسلم على نبينا محمد وعلى آله وصحبه أجمعين وسلم تسليما كثيرا إلى يوم الدين
Beautiful!!
I feel like Westernerners (SoCal in specific) could really take note of the benefits the hijab entails. Nowadays modern men and women in the western dating market (in SoCal at least) complain on social media on how shallow the opposite sex is for viewing them only for their appearances or superficial values, whilst putting on full display their bodily aesthetic (face and figure) to attract other aesthetically pleasing mates. It's really ironic and I think the implementation of veils, not nescerily hijab, to cover their faces and cloth in a way that is more modest, would have immense values to the bonding and mindset the men and women would create. Though I think clothing wise, one can be more creative in styling their veils and clothing to show creative prowess and personality to attract potential mates. I think covering up your biological gifts and letting your personality, creativity, passion, and intelligence to attract friends and potential partners is a MUCH more strategically advantageous culture to have.
Imagine wearing clothes that you fully design, each segment shows a philosophy, mindset, history, achievement, you've had. Be it a simplistic modest clothing, a harmonious mixture of colors, symbols indicating something important to you, to a complex and intricate design flexing your artistic skills. When people see it, they will automatically have a summarized spark note display to judge your character on based on the way you decide to design your attire and not your facial beauty or figure. Though this will definitely still have segregration and premature judgment issues, just in a different format than biological and physical signifiers. However, at least this method will give those who are born without the advantage of beauty to earn the perception and judgement of others in a much more level playing field.
I think this will really help not only people who are perceived as ugly and undersirable but to the ones who are seen as beaiful dieties as well. It will weed out the superficial connections made based on physical appearances which will in turn give the undesirable a chance to build a connection that wouldn't be possible if he/she hadn't put on the veil, and the desirable to truly find a partner who isn't only looking for looks. This of course is predicated on the idea that TRUE LOVE does not care for appearances, which is a mindset everyone strives for but seldom practice. I believe this would be healthy for a society, in the short term it might feel like a hard lesson that is annoying and unfair for the biologically gifted, but in the long term I think everyone would benefit from it tremendously.
I'll end this comment with a variated quote:
You don't have to be muslim to practice beneficial muslim values. Values are values, and "great values can come from any religion or culture". - A variation to the Ratatoulie quote

Subhanallah ... Question to feminist aunties if islam is opressing Muslim...why western women are reverting to islam
Assalaamuailaikum,for everyone(muslim in the world
It is more important to take care of the heart. How your heart is dressed rather than your outward dress
Love being Muslim
Assalamualaikum Warahmatullah wa Barakatuhu. My dear sis show good example by wearing the proper hijab. Be proud of your religion
Hijab It’s beauty
I used to not know what they meant, I liked hearing what you had to say. I am more curious now to try one on, but no one around me wears them. Any advice on how to start?
Make an interview of Taslima Nasreen about hijab she describes it very well
Why
Could somebody answer this for me- why has Allah commanded Muslim women to wear the headscarf? Is it to cover ourselves in front of men, or for us to be seen and differentiated as Muslims, or something else?
I am Muslim and I love hijab .. i feel more comfortable with hijab on
Mashallah sister....much much needed...must preach this too our old relatives who thinks that "making women get her education is merely a waste of time and they are anyhow meant to rot in kitchen" Some people are frozen in time. They need to wake up and come to reality !
Very informed commentariat on this channel!
I thought people were going to call the hijab politically incorrect!
I believe if I was Muslim woman I would were the hijab and dress modestly and I don't see the hijab as a symbol of oppression and it is a choice Muslim women make.
Subahan Allah
Agreed. Thanks for the information.
Can you please give a link to the cited Gallup census of 2008 among the 50.000 women. I find that very helpful for discussion in the ongoing to heated debates, we do also have here in Germany. Thanks in advance. Hamza
I love how you hone in on education that’s my seeing oppression that woman in certain places due to extremism which is just as alive in Christianity in different ways is the oppression the hajib isn’t the oppression it’s a mindful choice and I’m a Christian white woman but that bodily autonomy which I truly believe in and everything I’ve ever read about Aisha tells me everything I need to know about Mohamed I respect the faith that says you aren’t supposed to read it unless I’m Arabic so I’ve never read the Quran sry if I miss spelled that but she was a badass she was the woman who helped guide other woman sorry but of a rant ish I just really appreciated learning through this video off to watch more to learn thank you and blessings!!!
masha'Allah mezyan! well said sister.. barak'Allah feek

Assalamualaikum sister and brother anyone want learn Qur'an
I am in the process of converting to Muslim/Islam. Alhamdoulilah. I keep going back and forth on wearing the hijab. Part of me wants to wear it but part of me doesn't. I think what is causing this is because I grew up in a Christian Family and wasn't brought up with it. Also I think it is because I don't know much about wearing hijab. I am just unsure of what to do.
Hello Sarah I thought maybe this can help, I was born and raised as muslim girl and during pandemic had deist believes because of the muslim people around me literally, I was raised in a wrong way with wrong information.. And then I started to search and converted again after like 1,5-2 years elhamdulillah :') I am telling you all this cause I know exactly how you feel, I promise you if you don't give up on searching you will be relieved soon cause that's what happened to me.. idk how we can talk but if you wanna talk I'd be soo happy to talk to someone who is going through the same things as me 🤍 I just wish the best for you
MashaAllah
Well said.
