How do I know if I'm ready?

:sl:
whats holding you back? perhaps go back and try rectify that. hijaab is something very important in Islam and we shouldn't sit around and make excuses for ourselves ;]

pray to Allah to soften your heart towards it and make it easy for you :)

I think fear is holding me back. Of what my family and others would think

MashaAllah for thinking sister :). Remember niyat (intentions) are very important :D


May be you are scared ? .. Try talking to some hijabi sisters and clear your doubts. What ever you do , do it for Allah.

All the best :)
 
Assalamualikum
Don't think about your relatives because if you think that what hey will think then you will always be back. At first you feel something embarrassing :exhausted but whenever you feel so remember what Allah wants you to do.Always think about Allah in difficult times. May Allah help you in your good intentions.

I know exactly how you feel, i'm sure other revert sisters do also.
It's a whole worry about how your family, friends, family friends will act towards you.

Personally, fear is holding me back also imsad. There is not a big muslim community where I live, although there is one in the next town and I feel it would draw unwanted attention to me if I wore the hijab right here and now.

Only you can know when it is right. Do you attend a mosque? I assume if you do, you'd wear a hijab there, then maybe you could just keep it on until you get home and build it up bit by bit like that.

What about moving to a muslim populated area, where you would feel more comfortable wearing a hijab with others wearing it to?

I'm sure other sisters can advise better.
but I am in the same postion as you :statisfie

May allah make it easier for you :statisfie

Thank you sister. My reasons are very similar to yours. I do wish I could move to a more Muslim populated city. I'm the only Muslim in my town I think. I wish I atleast lived in a Muslim household
