So, said girl in previous post decided to ask me a question this afternoon while we were walking across the field towards the dissection room.
she asked what i (or i guess, in general all hijabis) thought about muslimahs who don't wear hijab. She said that if other non muslim girls are viewed as 'cheap' or 'trashy' while wearing tight, short, revealing clothing then would a muslim girl be viewed the same way if she was without hijab?
she also asked if i was forced into wearing hijab and if not, whether i knew of anyone who had been forced to wear it.
so this was my answer: no, i dont think muslim girls without hijabs are cheap or trashy. hijab is a religious duty but, i have seen girls without hijab act better than those with hijab on. no i was not forced into hijab and yes i do know of girls who had been forced into wearing it.
i know my answer could have been alot better but this was what i said at that point in time. i could also have left out the part where i mentioned hijabis acting worse than non hijabis. duh nadia, you're supposed to be painting a good picture of hijabis but yes sometimes i say things that i regret. im sorry! ):
she seemed focussed on only one thing...girls being forced to wear hijab and i felt like she wanted to dramatize the whole hijab issue so i left my answer at that.
i hate how people try to manipulate an issue and turn people against each other. noooo, i like wearing hijab! seriously, it makes me feel safe but i know she will never understand.
also, a friend commented "Wow Nadia, i love how colorful you are today" while I was wearing black abaya, black hijab and black shoes.
i <3 my friends *ehem*

- Completely irked that even things like shampoo have pork in them. I don't need pork on my hair, thanks. I don't have accounts on Facebook, Twitter or MySpace because I'm terrified of social networking and being addicted to telling people what I'm doing every fifteen minutes. It doesn't mean I'm antisocial though, I'm just really shy. :D

You seriously need some new friends who understand you. Just curious but do you like wearing just black or do you think colors are haram?
hahhah ya nadia really nice friends :P
i totally understand you though, i've got the same kind of "friends" but like 10 years younger than you guys ;P
but really don't let it get to you too much :0 people are annoying.
@ My Getaway: I love black...black goes with everything and it makes life easier for you. Also if you know how messy I am, black garments are a necessity for me :D However, I do have many clothes of different colors. I don't think colors are haram.
@ Malekat: Yeah, my friends are so 'cool'. Aww Malekat, you make me feel so old now with the '10 years younger' comment lol.
Assalamualaikum

~Cool Muslimah~
@ Cool Muslimah: Waalaykum Assalam. My friend is not a hijabi. She is christian.
She's definitely curious about it but she is not a supporter.
Salaamz Nadia OMG thats soo rude i cant believe she said that! I dont get the big deal,why do ppl make such a fuss over the hijab,next time tell her if i added a little white would it make u happier since thats what nun's wear?take care sis mwah
@ Skye: Wasalam girl! Well, when she said that I was like a little shocked so I said "Are you being sarcastic?" And she was like "No...i really like it"....
and I was like @__@ is she for real? lol
they make such a big fuss about it because they have the misconception that we are being forced to wear it by some man. they think they are liberating us and giving us rights that we were denied.
oh ok sorry...
wow its such a jihad for you all to wear a hijab..that means a lot of reward compared to those who have no prob observing all this..mashAllah.
MAy Allah make everything easy for u dear and guide ur friend to the right path..

Tell her to trust you, that Sir Adib isn't liberating any girl.
@ Cool Muslimah: Amin to you dua
@ Adib: Hehe ok Sir Adib.
I think you gave her a good answer =) Since she probably still thinks most girls are forced to wear hijab there was no point in giving her more details.
