My story with Hijab

To be honest, I've never ever liked Hijab.. Not even the thought of it. Thinking that one day I would be a girl wearing Hijab intimidated me. I may have said on several occasions that I will wear the Hijab one day but never actually believed I would ever do!

Thing is,when Allah loves you & cares about you, He will show you to the right path no matter how blind you are! This is exactly what happened with me. Allah helped me by showing me a whole new view of life when I'm closer to Him. A wonderful meaning of life & what it stands for. I don't deny it.. It has been hard.. It's going to be extremely hard shifting everything in my life, not to mention the way I dress. I, then, came to realize that Hijab is much more than a piece of a cloth wrapped around my head! It is a life style, a way of living, a part of me, a part of my own mind & soul!

Remembering how I used to wear, 2 months ago ( before wearing Hijab) , & the way men used to look at me made me appreciate myself more. I know I will stand out wearing my Hijab & It won't stop me from being everything I ever wanted. I came to a deep understanding that a woman is much more beautiful when is modest. She is respected. And her body is not flesh to be leered upon. She could still have an exquisite style, stunning character & etiquette. But more than that, she is not seen for her shape but her mind that allow her true essence to show.

Modesty is beauty.. And to me beauty is Hijab!
