Allah is the most Merciful, and He's the one who knows what's in our hearts and what our intentions were. He knows what happend, what's happening and what will happen. Putting your trust in Allah first and foremost will help you the most. You have to trust that Allah will give you a way and a chance to practice Islam.

Sis, I kinda know what you're going through, although both of my parents accepted and love the hijab, elhamdulillah!! But when I went to Kosovo and met relatives - I instantly could see some of their negative views on hijab, and I got truly hurt, for what did I not hear them say about me, subhanAllah, May Allah forgive them and guide them inshaAllah.


Sister, how old are you? I do agree with those above, you have to stay strong and still try to talk to your father about it, inshaAllah. But if the situation is that bad, that he would do something to you or your sisters or other relatives, I suggest you to not go over excited with this. After all the hijab should make you feel safe...

But don't loose hope. I asked earlier how old you were, because to be honest, if there is no way to get him into other thoughts, I'd suggest move from home to an own place or to a good Muslim relative...

But right now, I can only recommend pray, pray and pray! You're in my duas sistah!

its because it wasnt arabic, it was urdu

Im 18. Well, I insAllah go to Sarajevo on university, so Ill go away from here. But i still think he will never say me yes on that. So I think it will probaly be against his will.. But Im 18? And i cant make my opinions and decisions? thats what hurst the most. He doesnt trust me.
Oh.. I cannot even say how people react when they see a sister with a hijab. 'Shes young', 'what her parents did wrong' etcetc...

oh, so. urdu..

sister
MashAllah how wonderful that you are trying to wear Hijab
I am very sorry your father is giving you such a hard time with this topic. But you know you are on the right path and you know it is the right thing to do.
I don't want to create any trouble in your family but if you ask me just do it. I am revert and of course my parents did not like the fact that I am wearing Hijab as well. But I couldn't just not wear it because they didn't like they idea. To me it was important to obey to Allah and follow what he has commanded us to do. I also had many discussions with my parents and at times they were very upset. But alhamdullilah they got over it and so will your father inshAllah.
I will make Du3 for you so Allah will make it easy for you and inshAllah your father will become a good Muslim as well.

is he so merciful that he will overlook having a boyfriend as long as she moves out and wears niqaab or whatever passes for hijab in her country?

interesting to say the least!

Haha, no I didn't say that. Good you pointed that out, I overlooked her saying she has a boyfriend!!! My bad really.

Sister, having a boyfriend is haram. And some duas aren't answered when the person is still doing the harams... So I seriously suggest you get married/engaged or take your distance from him... There is no other way sis... I know it might be hard, but the punishment one will get for such sins are even harder. But NoName55, brother, Allah is merciful over lots of things, elhamdulillah, and if one has repented sincerly I am positive Allah will not overlook it...

May Allah bless u all.Ameen
Ive broked up with him. We re still in some contact but not in a relationship.. I cannot marry him now but I took strength and ive broke up. Hes good muslim so he acepted it good. I pray it will stay like that and i will not go back to it. Im very happy ive got here because you all are reminding me of Allah..
Im just proud that i did that.. Hope it will be good
