Todays topic wearing a hijab. The Qur'an says :
“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 (must ordinarily) appear thereof; that they should draw their veils over their bosoms except to their husbands, their fathers, their husbands’ fathers, their sons, their husbands’ sons, their brothers or their brothers’ sons, or their sisters’ sons, or their women, or the slaves whom their right hands possess, or male servants free of physical needs, or small children who have no sense of the shame of sex; and that they should not strike their feet in order to draw attention to their hidden ornaments. And O ye Believers! Turn ye all together towards Allah, that ye may attain Bliss.” [Q 24:31]
So as a Qur'an abiding Muslim women it is expected of me to dress modestly and cover myself in the presents of men that could be potentially interested in me sexually. So anyone who is male and not related. Obviously once you become a married women you can "unveil" yourself for your husband. I have always been a conservative dresser, so wearing the hijab can natural to me. I have to admit, I have never felt more beautiful, more powerful, and more virtuosoes than when I am wearing a hijab and a abaya. It is unfortunate so many women base there self-worth on their sexuality. Here in the U.S. women are denied jobs based on their looks. Also shameful establishments like Hooters, give young women a false impression about what being a women is all about. Real women respect themselves and conceal their bodies from public view. The curves of your body should be treated like a great treasure that is not given to just anyone. Sorry I got a little off topic lol.
