assalaamu alaikum wa rahmatullah, everyone.


i've heard many revert sisters say they didnt like wearing the hijab at 1st, but once they tried it on and started practicing it a little, they loved it. besides it being for modesty, it lets other people know the hijabi from the inside. also, women should not be objects of display in public, hijab protects women from that.


also, i remember reading a story about a man (i think Muhammad Ali) asking his daughter where are gold found? deeply covered by rocks in caves. where are pearls? deeply covered by the ocean. diamonds? covered by earth. "you are valuable too, and you should be also covered"

if you had a diamond or something that valuable, would u put it on ur hand and show it to every1 as u walk by them? or would u protect it by hiding (covering) it from them?


m'aa salaam (with peace),
Mainul
