My pleasure

It is a pleasure to look in the mirror before leaving home every day; wear my scarf and make sure it is properly done covering all of my hair. It is a pleasure to go out of my house knowing that what I have did is something that will please Allah, and my self. A Hijab is a thing I wear that makes me feel free. Free to do what I believe in. Free to practice my religion with out disturbance, I can walk in the street, go to work, a restaurant, a shopping mall, and travel freely wearing it. How was I convinced to wear it? What is the purpose of wearing it? Questions have been asked. I am convinced That Allah is my God and Mohamed (PBUH) is his Prophet, I am convinced that praying five times a day is a must, That heaven and hell do exist; there is a reward and punishment. All of those has been mentioned in Qura`an and Sunnah (The sayings and acts of the Prophet PBUH). The Hijab has been mentioned in Qura’an and has been described in Sunnah. This is how I was convinced. The purpose of it to me is the peace that I feel, the freedom and pleasure.

Salted-caramel,

Here you go:

{ وقل للمؤمنات يغضضن من أبصارهن ويحفظن فروجهن ولا يبدين زينتهن إلا ما ظهر منها وليضربن بخمرهن على جيوبهن ولا يبدين زينتهن إلا لبعلوتهن أو آبائهن أو آباء بعولتهن أو أبنائهن أو أبناء بعولتهن أو إخوانهن أو بنى إخوانهن أو بنى أخواتهن أو نسائهن أو ما ملكت أيمانهن أو التابعين غير أولى الإربة من الرجال أو الطفل الذين لم يظهروا على عورات النساء , ولا يضربن بأرجلهن ليُعلم ما يخفين من زينتهن ... } [ سورة النور 24: 31].

روى عن عائشة عن النبى أنه قال : { لايحل لامرأة تؤمن بالله واليوم الآخر إذا عركت ( بلغت ) أن تظهر إلا وجهها ويديها إلى هاهنا } وقبض على نصف الذراع. ورُوى عن أبى داود عن عائشة أن أسماء بنت أبى بكر دخلت على رسول الله فقال لها :{ يا أسماء إن المرأة إذا بلغت المحيض لا يصلح أن يُرى فيها إلا هذا وهذا, وأشار إلى وجهه وكفيه}.

Nice post :)
I always have an extra respect for girls who wear hijab because they are convinced and not because of traditions or family reasons.

Sarpanch,

Yes; there is nothing like it :)

Swair,

You were really young.

When I wore it I was 15 or 16 maybe, and may parents refused at first thinking that I was young.

Cinema,

We are living the Best life that our religion gave us.

We have a duty to make earth a better place to live in.

No body here is forcing any body to do what he/she does not believe in.

I wrote about what I believe in and didn't Force others to it.

WELCOME TO MY BLOG :)

Dearest True Faith,
It's great to know you are that happy about your experience with hijab.

I am not trying in any way to philosophise here. I am just sharing my experience with you. And hope you allow me to do this here.

You quoted verses from Quraan always used to say that veil is obligatory. And quoted a hadith with asmaa bint abi bakr (which was classified as a weak hadith)

Researching the hijab issue revealed to me that Quraan verses can be interpreted in many different ways- all done by human beings who take their evidence from the same sources. So there is no wonder they reach the same conclusion. Why do I trust these and not someone who interprets differently?

Why is hijab that important of an issue? If it is a fard, what about men's prayer at the mosque? Do all those men who talk about the irreligiousness of non-jijabs pray Fajr at the mosque every morning?

By the way, I've been wearing the veil for 10 years :)
