THE ELEGANT HIJAB
Hijab… My protection
Hijab… My pride
What is hijab? Hijab is the word used in the Islamic context for the practice of dressing modestly, which all practicing Muslims past the age of BULUGH are instructed to do.
Let us take a few examples: The pea is a splendid plant. It proudly displays its strong green Hijab . It protects it from the hot and cold weather and guards it from insects. Allah has blessed the pea with a special Hijab , because without it, the seeds would scatter, dry up and die.
The orange keeps itself within its shiny orange Hijab to protect its delicious fruit. Otherwise it-looses its taste too.
So are the banana , the coconut and the pom egranate . Each one has an elegant and unique HIJAB, which protects it from disease and destruction.
The jewel of the sea, the pearl , has been given a very tough and rugged Hijab – oyster shell. It protects it from sea animals and keeps it sparkling and shining inside
What do you see when you look at me? Do you see someone limited, or someone free? All some people can do is just look and stare, Simply because they cant see my hair!
Others think I am controlled and uneducated. They are so thankful that they are not me Because they would like to remain ‘free’ Well free isn’t exactly the word I would have used.
All they can do is look at me in fear And in my eye there is a tear Not because I have been stared at or made fun of But because people are ignoring the One up above On the Day of Judgment they will be the fools Because they were too ashamed to play by their own rules
Hooded girls are the ones really helping the Muslim cause The role that we play definitely deserves applause I will be recognized because I am smart and bright And because some people are inspired by my sight
My Beautiful Religion – ISLAM • Considers me like a precious JEWEL; • A Costly PEARL; • A Delicate FLOWER; • To be taken care of, protected and nurtured. • ISLAM has guaranteed my safety in HIJAB.
• I can climb mountains; • I can cross the seas; • I can Expand my mind in all degrees; • For God Himself gave us LIB-ER-TY When He sent Islam, To You and Me!
How ever, the most beloved of Allah in all His creation is the Muslim girl w ho w ears the Hijab. She know s it is a gift from Allah. It protects her from harm, injury and mischief. She w ears it know ing it gives her dignity, beauty and respect. So precious she can be that she hides herself beneath her Hijab.
" Allah does not look at your body and face; rather he looks at your HEART"
" Say to the believing men that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty......And say to the believing women that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty; that they should not display their beauty and ornaments except what ordinarily appear thereof; that they should draw their veils over their bosoms...." (Qur'an 24:30-31)
• Dear Sisters, Let us be Proud Of Our Identity AND • Let us Practice this Order Of God in the best Possible Way. • Let us do our Hijab in the right way • And not make fun of it.
