    Im not a muslim and I wear the hijab.🧕🏻 I literally started to wear it this senior year. I don’t like showing my hair and I feel naked without it. It was hard for me to put it on because I was afraid of judgment at school because im literally a white girl wearing a hijab. My family didn’t approve whatsoever because they aren’t a part of any religion. I even went to my church wearing it. I was so happy that no one judged me. I like wearing it and I feel Secure.

      This is fake af. Only a real hijabi would say they feel naked without it. You can’t feel naked without it unless you have been wearing it for years since a young age which is not likely with your parents

      NO “ladies’HIJAB” found in the Quran. -
      (The word HIJAB is used in the Quran but NOT for ladies.)
      Check these Ayath/verses that they say have Hijab in them. (But not found)
      In Quran 33.59 -
      “ … JILBABs over themselves…”
      in Quran 24.31 -
      “… KHIMARs over the JAYBs..”
      The word is KHIMAR in the Quran.24.31
      - Root Meaning of KHIMAR is just a COVERING,
      it can also be a neck scarf, any scarf, dupatta, chadar, etc.
      There is no head, hair, veil, niqab or any such importance in the Quran,
      They have SHIFTED the IMPORTANCE away from the JAYB.
      Check the transliteration
      in Quran 24.31:
      “yadribna bi’Khumur’ihinna ala juyoob’ihinna”
      [Plurals : khumur, juyoob]
      // *..put-forth COVERINGs OVER THE JAYBs…*//
      KHIMAR = COVERING
      and
      To verify JAYB from the Quran
      check this example in
      //Quran 28.32
      “…. yadaka fee jayb’ika …”. //
      “… put your hand in your Jayb..”
      (clearly a pocket or opening in the dress)
      (or) some people translate it as chest/ bosoms coz that’s where they understand the Jayb is.
      Again, please see where the importance is in the verse:
      “put-forth COVERINGs over the JAYBs”
      - but the EXPLANATIONS of ‘Sect’ /Firqa leaders promoted the concept of ladies’HIJAB
      - by adding it in books written much later after the Quran AND by adding words with brackets in translations and explanations - gradually shifting the importance of COVERING the Jayb
      - giving importance away from the Jayb seems like DISTRACTION from the main EMPHASIS.
      AND also - these Firqa leaders wrote the Dictionary centuries later to push their meanings
      - please ask them : when and who wrote the Dictionary that they show their meanings from?
      We should not accept new meanings to the words after the word is used in the Quran
      - in the present era the meanings can be understood by checking the same word usage within the Quran
      - see where the word is used again.
      QURAN is it’s own DICTIONARY within it - (by using the important words in other verses and locking the meanings).
      They should know when the same root word is used for khumr/intoxicants even then it’s used for “COVER”
      - - any KHUMR /- intoxicant or alcohol
      COVERS the ability INSIDE THE MIND - -
      Please NOTE : khumr /intoxicants/ALCOHOL does NOT cover the HAIR or outer-head.
      How can a religion claiming to be for the whole world - promote desert clothing for far off freezing lands?
      They’re Spreading culture and calling it religion - They took the desert clothing that is needed in sand storms and called it religion
      OTHER religious groups were ALREADY wearing it in the desert.
      IF anyone wants TO FOLLOW WORDS OF ALLAH then they should verify with the Quran - coz every secondary source should match with the Quran
      AND they should not add words in translations.
      JILBAB:
      Means any decent OUTER CLOTHING worn above the under-garments - it’s plural is JALABIB
      The verse in the Quran 33.59 is about JILBAB - it’s about wearing outer clothing - where it also says that “they can be RECOGNISED and NOT HARASSED”
      Here the condition is to be recognised :
      how will anyone RECOGNISE if you cover fully?
      - So avoid tight clothing - it’s really simple as per Quran.
      Wearing clothes that the security personnel and other people are scared of coz they cannot recognise the person inside - as a result you face difficulty and then that results in feeling harassed.
      Check the verse Q.33.59 below and remember that some translations or interpretations have added words in brackets - so look at Arabic /or word-to-word translation to VERIFY, yes VERIFY.
      “… alay’ihinna min jalabib’ihinna… “
      (Plural-is JALABIB)
      //Quran 33.59
      O Prophet! Ask your wives, daughters, and believing women to draw their JILBABs over themselves .
      In this way it is more likely that they will be RECOGNISED
      and not be HARASSED.
      And Allah is All-Forgiving, Most Merciful//
      --
      Notice it’s only talking about properly covering themselves - there is NO emphasis on head, hair, face covering in this verse also.
      -
      Some of them will not VERIFY what is in the Quran - word by word.
      And you may get to see how they will jump to start calling IGNORANT and names to the person showing them the research.

You are meant to cover your awrah, and for a woman their awrah is evrything except face and hands. How you observe hijab is your choice however there is a clear and correct way. Observing hijab is also how you behave and carry yourself.

    I freaking love this video as a hijabi everything that you guys addressed was important, logical and inspiring to the point were today i was at uni for the third day as its my first year, a women (non hijabi) was complimenting a hijabi behind me and was questioning why shes wearing it when she looks so beautiful and would look much more pretty with her hair out. I could tell the hijabi wasn't able to really answer her question so i actually went up to them and i remembered Tara/Tarta (not sure how to spell it sorry) words and i re-phrased them and she was very very astonished by my response and wished more people knew the reasoning behind it instead of judging us. Thankyou for the video i loved it so much!!

    I have a very different, but also a little the same, situation when it comes to clothing. I was raised in an extremely modest home, and even when you o something from a very young age, at some point, you get older and have to decide "why am I doing this?" and "will I continue?" I find a LOT, that the way I dress DEFINITELY removes attention from me. But I've gotten so used to it. And proud of it! A mentor of mine says "When you dress in the 'modern way', you're like a light bulb, providing a lot of flashy light. when you dress modestly, you become a laser, focusing yourself and others on your inside, on what really counts."

    I have worn hijab since I was 11/12 years old. I am 36 now. I have always worn it. The only time I have taken it off is when I have been on holiday 2 or 3 times. Where there are few Muslim as I didn't want to have dirty looks or punched in the face. I am struggling in the least year to take it off. Just so i can style my hair and let my hair out in the sun. I don't know why Allah had to make it wajib for us to cover our hair. After all hair is not a private part. I don't know I might take it off and be a part time hijabi. Struggle is real!

      I find this so sad. That anybody would live life according to "someone else's"(sorry I don't believe in any religion) standards, just because this is the right thing to do according to their religion. If you are ok with certain things your religion is telling you to do, sure go ahead. But why should you keep doing something if it makes you unhappy? This is YOUR life, your ONE AND ONLY life. From what I know about all gods is that they are supposed to be loving and understanding. So technically they shouldn't be mad at you, so long you still believe and are a good person. No?

    The hardest part of wearing hijab is dealing with the various reactions I got from friends and family, especially when the start realizing that I’m slowly reverting to Islam. Some are supportive and some, not so much. Some friends have cut ties based on my decision to wear something that makes me more comfortable. I started wearing off and on various turbans and scarves at 34 after an accident, I’m now 39 and wear it almost all the time. I feel naked without it. Sometimes I feel the need to tone it down and look more Western when I’m around certain people…. It can be difficult to ease people into the change, i’m still the same person, I’m just look slightly different.

    A few weeks later after I said my shahadah , I found myself wearing hijab. I don’t know why or how but it is what it is and I’m proud of it although sometimes I got a weird or surprised look from people who knows me . I just believe that it’s Allah’s call and he’s guiding me through to the right path.

I said I wearing hicab I can't be part of such a competition cüz dress isn't proper for such a sport and they weren't let hicabi girl join Thé Competition. Anyway my couch told me that can I take off my hicab?
    I said sorry but hicab isn't something that you can play and when you want off or in.
    Love you guys. Wish to see more videos from both of you.

    I'm twelve right now and I've wanted to wear the hijab for about a year and a half now, but I was so scared to tell my mom because with our family, no one wears the hijab. I was also scared, because she wasn't totally for the idea of wearing a hijab, she felt like it was a way to control women. Slowly about 8 months ago I started hinting that I would want to wear it and I finally told her, and she was surprisingly accepting about it. I was still a little worried about how other people in our family would feel about it, and if they would judge me for literally being the only one in our family to want to wear it, but about a week later I learned that my slightly older cousin had actually told her mom that she wants to wear one too. We were both shocked that we had both wanted to wear one and it made us both feel better about wanting to wear it because we could do it together.

    I hate this notion that girls without hijab must be dressing in revealing clothes. There are SO MANY women who wear MORE modest clothes than MANY hijabis, I´m sorry that this needed to be said. I have seen hijabis in the most revealing bodycon dresses etc. , which I haven´t even seen non-hijabis wear. Why do people have so much judgement and hate towards hijab-less sisters? Like assuming so many bad things. I get ZERO attention without hijab and I honestly look terrible with hijab. I know the purpose isn´t to look attractive but, I just don´t wanna look THAT worse than what I already do. I´m a simple person, who doesn´t know how to makeup etc. I´m that woman men don´t look at twice, hardly even once. I´ve been told that I have a resting face that makes me look sad or angry.
    I actually feel shocked at how great all other women, especially hijabis, look. From the edges of their hijab to their nails, everything is flawless and Barbie-looking. They look sexy and feminine. Almost as if they overcompensate just because they wear hijab.
    It´s like I didn´t get some secret woman-memo that gives instructions on how to look great. So that´s my only reservation with hijab, that it makes me feel even worse than I already do. I feel like I stop being me, and I just become a robot or a statistic. My own personality comes out even less. Still, I hope I get the courage one day insh´Allah. Maybe I should just bite the bullet and stop caring about feeling even uglier.

Another time, men in the family have asked me not to smile because it´s "scary".These are the raw truths of life, but I was just so offended when it was suggested in the video that women who don´t wear hijab are somehow walking around being attractive. No, some of us are just not pretty. Alhamdulillah for health though. Life is not Jannah, and that is OK. I have accepted long ago that some family members don´t want to present one for their friends.

    I am that woman 😂😂😂 Alhamdoulillah I have always felt so confident wearing my hijab. I wanted to wear it way before I converted to islam. I wish all my fellow muslim sisters would feel the same way. But we all face all kinds of different struggles in life. May Allah make it easier upon all muslim women 💕💕💕 Don't focus on what other people have to say bout your hijab. Do it for Allah from your heart. Allah created everything around you, gave you air to breathe, legs to walk, eyes to see. He gave you health, family, wealth. How can we say no to Allah when he aks us to wear the hijab? And don't tell yourself you will do it tomorrow, next week, next year or after you get married, because you don't know if tomorrow is gonna come. So do it today and do it for Allah and ask Allah to make it easier on you, to give you sabr. Allah always listens when you call upon Him ❤

    I still disagree with the premise of the hijab.. even though I wouldn't force anyone not to wear it. It's just no matter how I look at it.. how much of wearing it really is your decision? And why is wearing a hijab making anyone closer to their chosen God?
    In my eyes it's still a force of oppression towards women because only you have to wear it.. not the men. Only you must cover up and be "modest".. but the men can wear almost anything they want. You might believe that it isn't forced.. but in many places it is, and if you choose not to wear it then the community and families who expect it will be upset. That social pressure is outweighing the theoretical freedom to not wear it. Its convincing yourself something is your choice for something that even you admit is uncomfortable and hot and sometimes isolating.
    Having your hair out shouldn't be wrong.

    Don't isolate yourself. There are people who have been through what you might be facing right now and they overcame it. Don't push people away, surround yourself with people who are spiritually mature and get the help that you need. Isolation when you are in pain and don't know if there's a way out is dangerous and that's why we have suicide cases. Listen, there's nothing that you can be facing that God is not able to solve for with God nothing is impossible. Hold on. Jesus loves you.

I believe in islam but I wish I didn’t have to wear the hijab. 😣 i know I won’t take it off because I don’t want anyone to question my commitment to islam.... but I feel so unhappy.

Is better to be women in western country. Cuz we are not forced to wear it. Other country women don't have it that easy. Is forced.

    Hello I’m new to this channel and this video made me cry so much because when I started uni I was struggling with my hijab I felt uncomfortable I wanted to take it off but I was so scared I love Allah but I wanted to take it off so badly so I started trying to take it off at uni I don’t know why I wanted to take it off I prayed and asked Allah to keep me wearing the hijab because I was so scared I don’t want him to be disappointed then I asked all of my friends and family if I could take it off or not the last person I asked was my mom because her opinion matters to me more then anyone else she said it’s your choice so I took it off my friend was so happy to see me without the hijab she does not wear the hijab
    I know what I’m doing is wrong and now I know that my friends actions was wrong that’s why I cried so much while watching this video I am going to wear the hijab again but not now I’m lost and I need to find myself
    Thank you💙❤️

    Hijab is not a piece of cloth on the hair.
    It has so many restrictions on the whole life. I am talking about the real hijab that goes with the Ayah:
    (وقرن في بيوتكن ولا تبرجن تبرج الجاهلية الأولى)
    Stay constantly at home goes together with hiding the beauty by hijab in this Ayah. You must not look pretty by hijab. You must not look beautiful by any mean. This is the idea. So it is funny if somebody complementing us while wearing hijab because it is against the idea.
    At the end of the day we are not following the Quran exactly and we are not following the life of a modern normal women as well. We unfortunately lost both paths.
    Makeup + modern clothes+ friendships with men = ALL against the core of hijab in shariah. We are fooling ourselves. I have to admit it.

    • @Incur4bleDre4mer

      "You must not look pretty by hijab. You must not look beautiful by any mean. This is the idea. So it is funny if somebody complementing us while wearing hijab because it is against the idea."
      First of all, sheesh! Secondly, I disagree with this bit. Looking attractive is not the same as looking beautiful, and you certainly should not look UGLY, because "Allah is beautiful and loves beauty", and people tend to either classify others as beautiful or ugly.
      If you're naturally pretty there is no way you could look ugly and the only solution is the burqa since even your eyes are amazing. Besides, maybe someone is simply drawn to the idea of hijab and compliments the woman because they admire her, then "you're beautiful" becomes just a clumsy cliche phrase that people use for everything because they lack the vocabulary and wittiness to adapt the compliment to what they are thinking.
      I do agree that wearing a ton of makeup is counter-intuitive though. And Allah knows best.
      P.S. I resent the fact that you said "modern NORMAL women", as if the women who strive in the path of Allah aren't normal. Come on.

      For me, its a challenge and its a scary because my mum and some of my cousins are not used to wearing hijab. However, thanks to Allah. I finally able to convinced my mum after 4 years to let me wear hijab. She told me 5 days ago that if I am sure and want to wear hijab. Then, wear it May/June 2020. Hijab is a decision and it involves whether you are ready and brave to wear it.
      Believe me, its not an easy decision but once I made the decision 4 years ago and finally get my mum's blessing. The feeling is none other than excited and rest assured. I feel at ease now because finally I am able to do what I know is supposed to be the right thing to do after reach certain age but its just that I and my mum denied it for years because we felt insecure and scared that life will get harder.
      I understand that hijab does not mean that I am the most pious person but instead its for me to remind myself about certain things, protect me (my body and myself) from weary/evil eyes and having a physical connection to Allah S.W.T.
      I think I made the decision about wearing hijab and keep on convincing my mum when only I am able to understand that.
      I hope you will be able to make the decision someday or soon. Wish you the best.
