i’m not muslim and i’ve been wearing hijab for a few months now. i’ve had people say mixed things to me, but i’ve realized i can wear what i want. I want to be modest so i’m gonna wear what i want and what makes me comfortable. i’ve never felt as beautiful and safe as i do wearing hijab. update: i took my shahada a few months back so i’m officially a muslim
I've been a hijabi for ten years now, and I love it. I've been a niqabi for two months and love that, too. I feel so safe and protected and blessed. You can indeed wear what you wish to maintain the level of modesty you're comfortable with!
As a christian we should wear hijab which i do when i visit church but im not completely ready yet to wear it all the time, but we are allowed to show a little skin and wear tight clothes (not too tight)
@@bobdebilder2512 i know i'm not her, but that would be considered disrespectful. most of my family are muslim/buddhist, and i got their opinions and they said it was disrespectful if you aren't covered :')
@@andromacha83 I am not sure who this was addressed to, but a woman might wish to wear a hijab or niqab because she just wishes to be modest. Or she may wear it because she wishes to revive the older custom of veiling amongst Christian women. Most Christian ladies veiled to one extent or another until at least the 1500s or 1600s and ladies often wore a hat to church or when going out until the 1960s. So headcovering in one form or another went on until very recently. Some Christians denominations still feature headcovering for ladies: The Amish and Mennonities wear a bonnet and Old Believer women still veil in church. They wear a large headscarf which looks very much like a hijab, and to this day, both traditional Orthodox and traditionalist Catholic ladies wear a hat or mantilla when attending Mass or stopping into church to pray. For myself, I've always tended to veil because I am fairly modest by nature and veiling is natural for me. Honestly, there are many reasons ladies might wish to be verl.
Yeah, I am an atheist as well but always found the hijabs to be beautiful ❤ But I don't know if I could do it because I fear religion and the point of the hijab is for religion purposes. 😭
@@sadhairlineboiking4587 she answers in the beginning by saying a religion doesn't own modesty and stuff! :) As long as you're not wearing it to be rude or mock/make fun if someone or a religion, it's okay!
Well, there are basically two ways of wearing headscarfs: for practical reasons and for religious reasons. Hijab is the Muslim version of wearing a headscarf for religious reasons a.k.a. for god. But there are also plenty of practical reasons for wearing headscarfs: protection of hair, hairstyle and scalp from the weather, from the looks and jugdment of other people, to feel beautiful only for yourself and your dearest ones, to have your comfy safety blanket always on/with you and so on 😄I'm also an atheist since a few years now and I still don't understand people who think wearing a headscarf makes someone automatically "ugly". But that's also my personal reason why I don't consider wearing a face covering any more - to me (just as to many others) the eyes usually are the most beautiful part of a person. But the eyes remain uncovered with most face veils. And the different ones who try to also cover the eyes make everyday life hard to manage because they impair your vision quite dramatically unfortunately.
Muslim women don't wear hijab all the time just in the precense of men who aren't their husbands except for close family :granparent, uncles, brothers, fathers, nephews
I'm also an atheist and I love the idea of hijabs and niqabs and even burkas! Like, sometimes I just want to be anonymous and private and not show my face or body much or at all. Other times I like to be more visible but it just really depends tbh. I wish more private and modest clothing was more normalized for anyone-- not just Muslims. I think it would help Muslims too because of reducing stigma
I love the hijabs. I have anxiety and I love the idea of covering my hair. I would feel safe. But I'm also an atheist and I just don't want to offend or hurt anyone. I also don't want to look bad as a white person wearing a hijab... Should I wear one?
Thank you for being open minded of our religion💗 but no matter how you look it's about how you feel and if you want to also look good find ways on yt on how to style it.
I’m 14 and I have had a lot of old men say disgusting things about me, especially online. I want to start wearing a Hijab so I can be seen for me and not an object.
That's definitely a good reason! I veiled when younger, both for religious reasons and a wish not to be objectified. Some men can be so rude--no boundaries!
While wearing hijab a long time ago and behaving modestly I still received lots of inappropriate comments from men on the street. So it's not our fault, but men should reconsider their behavior.
Christian here! my grandma used to go to the church with the veil, then this tradition was lost. Anyway, I prefer to cover my self when I go to church. Actually, with the pandemic, I prefer to cover my hair when I leave my home because I feel more protected from COVID and my hair stays cleaner, and I don't have to wash it every time I go out lol. I also noticed I feel better when I wear a turban
@@springlady8337 yes. My family’s church veils their women when worshiping and when I’m the temple. It says it in Corinthians, a woman that has her hair uncovered is shameful.

I remember when my muslim freind invited me to a family get together and she showed me how to put a hijab on. I didn't have to but I was curious and requested to do so for some of her relatives to be more comfortable. It was an amazing day, I was getting compliments from her sisters. An her grandmother was telling me facinateing stories from her culture all day.
When I was in college, one of my Muslim best friends gave me a hijab of the softest material I've ever felt. I love it. It was my first hijab! It's dark blue with sparkling beads.
I’m covered in tattoos and sometimes hate people coming out to me thinking it’s okay to come up and touch me and asking me questions about my tattoos. I did it to myself so I can’t really get mad. I love my tattoos but sometimes don’t want to stand out. I’m going to buy a modest dress and wear a hijab to see what happens 😭💚 I think I’ll feel more beautiful covering myself.
Go ahead and give it a try! I'm a Muslim that likes to put my hair in fancy little hairstyles, likes earrings,etc...and no one really sees them except me, you know? Of course, I like when my parents compliment me, or a close friend, etc, but primarily, my styling and self-expression that way is for me only... I wanna guess something similar could be said about your tattoos. You got them for you! In my experience, I feel great wearing pretty dangly earrings under simple modest clothes and hijab
Narrated by Aisha The wives of the Prophet used to go to Al-Manasi, a vast open place to answer the call of nature at night. Umar used to say to the Prophet "Let your wives be veiled," but Allah's Apostle did not do so. One night Sauda bint Zam'a the wife of the Prophet went out at Isha time and she was a tall lady. Umar addressed her and said, "I have recognized you, O Sauda." He said so, as he desired eagerly that the verses of Hijab may be revealed. So Allah revealed the verses of Hijab.(Sahih Bukhari 146) This is the history of hijab. Don't wear the toilet wear fearing men.
@@younce-davis952 Just for information, it's not the sun that fades the tattoos. It's the normal slaughing of the epidermis skin cells. While the tanning/darkening of the skin may make it appear thar way, it's not the actual reason.
Hi I have a question! I’m non-binary I assigned female at birth and was wondering if it would be disrespectful to wear the hijab or should I wear something else. I’m not Muslim and I want to be modest. I think your so beautiful by the way!! ❤️
AAYYYY SAME! I mean I don't really want to be modest except sometimes when I want to wear a hijab but I can deal with long pants and stuff for a little while
@@NinjaMommy I'm thinking of wearing a head scarf as a form of veiling (I'm a helenic pagan) and we don't have rules about modesty (not that I've heard of) I don't dress very showy but I was wondering if it would be offensive if I wore it with slightly unmodest clothes with it
I have anxiety but I am only 11 I really love the hijab and niqab it makes me feel calm and beautiful and peaceful it also helps with my anxiety😊 and I am not Muslim by the way
I wear the headscarf/hijab to protect my emotional well being since I’m an empath it helps to help me not get overwhelmed your videos and tiktoks are so loving and wholesome!!!
Even though I am not Muslim, I do love both the Hijab and Niqab! I am too scared to wear them since I feel like no one will understand me wearing a Hijab or Niqab since I am not Muslim. :( I really enjoy watching your videos!
You should go for it! I’ve been wearing the hijab for a few months on and off in high school as an atheist and I love it! Most people don’t care and they shouldn’t, just remember you can wear whatever you want as long as your not disrespectful. The first time is always the hardest.
When I was little I would improvise hijabs and niqabs our of scarfs because I was like they’re so prettyyyy 🥺 but then I learned they were a Muslim thing so it felt disrespectful but now I’m happy to know it’s not 💓 will be wearing it occasionally now because I feel so pretty in them 💜
Hi! I'm actually romanian, and I wanted to try wearing a hijab not because i felt save about it, but it make me feel more like a human, without having to show my face, or my hair to be pretty, only letting people know what's in my soul. I'm turning 18 now, i'll get out of highschool, and i'm planning to wear a hijab for my first year in college...just to let people know me, not my looks...thank you for making this video it really help me feel better about this choise
I think you hit the nail on the head when you said modesty is not ‘owned’ by Islam - hijabs aren’t any different than Catholic nuns wearing a habit, a tichel (scarf) or sheitel (wig) in Orthodox Judaism, bonnets amongst Anabaptist Christians (ex: Amish and Mennonites)...

I had things happen to me as a child so I feel very uncomfortable being objectified by men. I want to start wearing the hijab to feel more comfortable in pubic. I thank you for this video. It has given me the confidence to try it.
Don't let things that happened to you in childhood determine how you dress. Don't let anything, event, occurance, incident, or anyone dictate who you are, your authentic self. The past is the past. Live in the present. God bless you.
I am Christian myself, so I’ve always shied away from these things for fear it’d be looked down upon as cultural appropriation and then my bad behavior would reflect on my religion from someone else’s perspective. The knowledge that it is actually a part of my OWN religion is a huge blessing, thank you so very much! I’m not sure why I didn’t connect the dots earlier but I feel so much more welcomed now. I love that you don’t discriminate and are able to talk respectfully about other religions and even teach about things like this that relate to their origins. I respect you a LOT for that, you are a fantastic influence! I have always been quite shy and anxious, I prefer to be very modest and cover up as much as possible. I’ve always loved how Hijabs and Niqabs are worn, the creativity in fabrics and colors and headbands, and what they represent especially. I haven’t been watching you or other creators like you for very long, but lemme tell you I’ve wanted to have my own face coverings since the moment I started! They seem so safe. I feel like I could have more confidence because it puts a layer between me and the rest of the world. As a Christian I believe Jesus resides inside my heart, I take Him with me wherever I may go. With face and head coverings, with that extra little buffer between me and the outside world, it’s far easier for me to stop and pray, to be close to Him even in public where I might get weird looks. It’s very comforting and affirming, and I’m so glad you made this video and made me feel so comfortable with the idea of wearing one ❤️ ❤️
I'm a Christian with no intention of converting toIslam, but it's so nice to hear someone else's point of view and I really like to watch your videos to get some insight of how other people think :)

In my religion, women actually do wear head scarfs, but it is up to you weather you want to wear one. I used to wear one but I stopped for a while and I am thinking about starting again
@@NinjaMommy yesterday I put my scarf around me to look like a Niqāb and I loved it so much I couldn't stop smiling, but unfortunately I am only alodbto wear it in my room because my parents dont really like it. I am just so happy I came across you page, it helps me learn alot😁
I feel so beautiful and like myself when I wear a headscarf. I also really feel safe as well (I didn’t even think of it like that until you mentioned it). I have naturally started dressing more modestly and I feel so empowered! I’ve always wanted to wear the hijab but never want to offend anyone.
I'm a Wiccan and have been wondering about this for hijabs. Wiccans/Pagans often wear a lot of head coverings/veils for religious purposes (They're not necessarily used for modesty, though, from what I know). I don't do it all the time because I'm nonbinary and I mostly wear it on feminine days so that I don't feel dysphoric, but it can be like a safe space for those who try it :)
wiccan is a nature base religion you are identifying has non binary is counter nature and an insult to the god and goddess .stop believing fake wiccan youtube that say that wicca is inclusive it not it between a men and a women ! stop destroying our religion!
I‘m a 15 years old Christian girl and I would love try wearing a hijab, not everyday, just occasionally, but I’m really scared that my friends and family will find it weird or mock me. Even if they’re all okay with me being a Christian, and really accepting about religions, most of them are Atheists and I don’t think they would have a very positive opinion about really visible signs of it, especially if it’s not from my religion.
i am also a non-muslim hijabi, and you can keep it how much u want to! i first kept it only for prayers, but now i keep it everytime im out of the house. and im pretty sure you can only show your hair to the men in your family only (and husband)!
I started wearing the hijab outside of my house on 2/5/21 and I am so happy. I feel so comfortable with myself. Yes I feel safe and happy. Thank you for every video you do. I enjoy listening to your videos! 😁
I would like to wear a hijab because it's nice to be modest. I'm a Christian and I wear modest clothes. I love the Islamic clothes for women it's good to hide your body then expose it to the world. I'm married to a Muslim so I have to dress modest. I feel safe and secure covered. Since I wear a face mask for corona virus I love having my face covered.
I have always been kinda fascinated by hijabs. I have visited a few mosques and wore headscarves while there and I enjoyed it, even if it didnt sit massively well, since it was only a scarf (not made to be used as a hijab) and wasnt pinned or anything.
That's pretty sensible, as it is a perfect protective gear against the blazing sun, the heat and the dust. When outside at daytime the Niqab can be a great idea also. Not for social reasons, but simply because it is amazingly comfortable.
The hijab is actuqlly referred to in the Qur'an as a khimar, and hijab in the Qur'an is usually referring to actual screens or veils (as in "the veil between this world and the next" type of context). I wore it about 1.5 years before ever considering Islam, and I was a pagan at the time (a Kemetic to be exact). Nearly every religion and culture throughout history had some form of head covering. In many cases such was for only the upper-class and there were even laws in some societies that dealt with punishing a lower-class or slave woman for wearing it. And something is only appropriation if you are doing it in mockery of those who wear it for a reason. Wearing it because you think it is fashionable or you are curious about it- no appropriation Wearing it and going to your friends making terrorist jokes in mockery- appropriation. Intention is key.
"You shouldn't use profanity if you're Muslim." Lmao as someone who lives in NYC the men definitely don't follow this one. Double if they drive a taxi XD
I love this! As a Torah Observer, I recently transitioned to wearing a covering and personally all articles of your modesty, are all aspects that not only do love aesthetically, but I wear mine to remind me that I’m doing this for The Creator. I would love to have events for all women who wear coverings could get together to celebrate our dedication.
I am not muslim and I want to wear the hijab because it makes me feel beautiful, I feel like myself, and I feel empowered. But my mother hates it. What should I do to get her to allow me to wear it? I love Islam culture and fully support you, I love the modest clothing, and I love the covering up idea.
I love your videos, and I just want to add that until I watched Unorthodox on Netflix I didn't know/didn't think about that other religions covering their hair or dressing modestly. you have so many religions that do cover hair in some form: Orthodox Jews, Nuns, Catholics (alot of different branches of that religion), Amish, Taoist Nuns, Cao Dai Nuns, Hindu, Sikhs, the list goes on. I love that you brought it up, not many knows this. And I think its important that people do.
I think another cool thing about hijabs is the privacy element. I’ve been stalked before and having more privacy out in public sounds really nice and comforting.
If you have any questions or queries please feel free to visit any mosque or Islamic center and clear your doubts. You can also get a free copy of Quran in any language you want.
Thank you very much! I am not Muslim but am exploring different religions and I would love to wear the hijab to feel close to all of you Muslim sisters! I feel like the most beautiful woman in the world with the hijab! Thank you so much for clearing the air! I hope I can find my happiness with the Muslim religion!
When you said it's ok to wear it and that it's ok I felt a weight lifting off me I felt so bad wanting to wear one but it made me feel safe and happy knowing its ok made me cry
Thank you so much for tackling this issue 💕 Just wanted to add - I don't think there are any real reasons why men shouldn't wear a headscarf - a lot of guys in the Middle East wear headscarfs. They often call them turbans and also use a lot of other terms but it's only a piece of cloth wrapped in some way around the head - so it's a headscarf, I'd say, linguistically speaking. Also if men protect themselves from sand in the dessert by covering their face, it's still a face covering. Sure, it's different from wearing hijab or niqab, since both are a religious practice. But men also do and can wear head and face coverings, also for cultural reasons, not just practical ones. I just wanted to add this for people who might not know as much about the topic.
I live in an area in Sweden with a high Muslim area and I feel like I should cover on the tram or in our community because it's respecting their religion. I'm not Muslim, raised super strict Catholic but practice the laws of the universe and be a good human. I think the styles that you ladies create are super modest and incredibly gorgeous.
I always seen the hijab as something beautiful. I want to wear it sometimes because of the beautiful ways it can be worn. But I don't because I don't want to be seen as something I'm not or be harassed for wearing it as a white woman. I'm not Muslim at all in fact I'm laveyan. I just wish people would leave each other alone and live the way they want to live in peace.
This is such a wonderful thing and your channel is so informative to me! I plan on traveling at some point in my life and when I do come to a predominantly Muslim country, I intend to dress modestly and wear hijab as to respect the culture of the area, as I’m pretty sure my dyed hair would probably bother some people in those areas. I’m not Muslim myself but I will always stand with my Muslim brothers and sisters. We are all humans, we are all capable of thoughts and feelings and love and deserve to be treated with love and respect. You have such a kind heart, and I am so happy to learn your perspective on the world as this is one I’m not normally granted.
You literally answered all the questions I was wondering because I’m not particularly religious but I am baptized in a church and although my personality is kind of out there and weird I am conservative in my dressing.
I use to wear a scarf around my neck in winter and I'm always waiting for the very cold/rainy weather in which I can pull up the scarf and cover my head without people around me thinking I lost my marbles. I'm so done of this culture in which females are constantly encouraged to show their body in order to "be attractive". I don't want to be fed this virtually all the time. It's everywhere and I'm so done. I used to wear baggy clothes and people would say I look bad, I look not curvy, I look too thin. Guess what I am thin, and I want to be comfortable. Ugh 😢
Your comment really spoke to me. I am a skinny person too, and I used to be very insecure about my body because I thought I was too thin. I am an adult now and I don't think that way anymore. What helped me was to understand that as long as you are healthy and comfortable, that's all that really matters. Beauty standards all around the world are nearly impossible to meet perfectly, so just make sure that you are eating well and exercising (even if that means walking or biking somewhere instead of driving). Finally, wear whatever you are comfortable with. I used to only wear shirts that would cover my butt (I thought it was too flat) and cover my arms. Over time, you can try what I did and slowly go outside your comfort zone. You could try to wear a cropped shirt or a short sleeved shirt with the pants you'd normally wear, but wear a cardigan over it. I hope this helps!
I'm an atheist but I also have Contamination OCD, so covering my head might make me feel safe, clean, and comfortable. Not to mention hijabs look so comfortable!
Julia Hiii, will post the experiment on tiktok soon! ☺️ For the people who are interested in being Muslim, I suggest you do your research, learn everything you possible can. Talk to Muslims around you and when you feel ready, take the shahada (declaration of faith)
Ever since I started wearing a mask for the pandemic, I've felt a lot safer and guarded because I'm an extremely emotional person and I've had severe depression for multiple years now. I don't like how other people can see right through me when I have my face completely covered. I've also started finding it intimate for me to remove my mask when I eat and when I'm around friends because its a demonstration that I'm comfortable around them and I'm okay with them knowing my emotions. I get so tired of strangers asking me "are you okay?" and always forcing out "I'm fine". I appreciate the concern but ultimately they don't know me; I like saving my face and true emotions for my friends. Is that weird?
We show our faces in women only environments, in front of any woman (as long as no non- Mahram is present there) and of course in front of men such as our fathers, brothers etc. and in front of children.
I’m Christian, but I had to dress very modestly and wear a hijab to visit the Grand Mosque in Oman (it was stunning btw) later when walking in the mountains in Oman I actually ended up wearing the hijab for sun protection, I loved it and I still occasionally bring a scarf/ hijab when bushwalking, so practical as it keeps the sun off my neck🙂
I started wearing the headscarf because my grandma died of skin cancer from sun exposure through her hair. I have taken a lot from hijabi fashion to keep myself safe during the sunny months. And yes, the headscarf does make me feel safe. I have anxiety and having that layer is really nice. For looking frumpy in the hijab, try to find styles that work with your face shape. I cannot wear Turkish hijabs because my face is square and I look ridiculous. I honestly wear tichel-styled headscarves the most (turbans) but of the hijab styles I do better with styles that drape and aren't tight. In highschool before I started veiling, I tried to do hijab day with some other students. It made the news and we had death threats coming from states over. My school had to cancel it.
Assalamu Alaykum wa rahmatulahi wa barakatuhu Alhamdulillah it is okay because the Gospel book says so. 1 Corinthians 11:1-12 Head Coverings 2 Now I praise you, brethren, that you remember me in all things and keep the traditions just as I delivered them to you. 3 But I want you to know that bthe head of every man is Christ, cthe head of woman is man, and dthe head of Christ is God. 4 Every man praying or eprophesying, having his head covered, dishonors his head. 5 But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, for that is one and the same as if her head were fshaved. 6 For if a woman is not covered, let her also be shorn. But if it is gshameful for a woman to be shorn or shaved, let her be covered. 7 For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, since hhe is the image and glory of God; but woman is the glory of man. 8 For man is not from woman, but woman ifrom man. 9 Nor was man created for the woman, but woman jfor the man. 10 For this reason the woman ought to have a symbol of authority on her head, because of the angels. 11 Nevertheless, kneither is man independent of woman, nor woman independent of man, in the Lord. 12 For as woman came from man, even so man also comes through woman; but all things are from God.
I never get responses so I really hope you see this. Salam alaikum sister this morning I said shahada and realized I finally found truth in Islam. Through you sharing your culture and faith with all of us you led a very broken and lost soul to Allah. Thank you from the bottom of my heart sister @ninjamommy
Be open minded sister and ignore the haters and before long u will understabd what makes us fall inlove with the prophet and Allah every day.....anf why d muslims arr always smiling
I used to wear a hijab on the bus when I was in university to reduce sexual harassment on the bus. I also used to wear it a lot when traveling in Muslim countries especially in rural areas just made me feel more comfortable.
This is not only muslim habit. I used to be married to Pakistani man and in the village it was a necessity to wear scarf on your head in church and it was also recommended other times.it showed modesty and respect
I was introduced to wearing a hijab from 2 ladies I use to work with a few years ago... I felt empowered wearing it...we use to dress each other up...it was soooo fun that we could bond together thru it...we use to give each other dresses n hijabs all the time... I was even told by some of the Muslim men I worked that I looked even prettier wit a hijab on
Muslimah RU-vidrs like you helped me to take up wearing niqab (I'd worn hijab and abaya for over a decade already before starting to wear niqab). So far, except on RU-vid, reactions have been positive. Even when not yet wearing niqab, I can't tell you how many Christian women came up to me and told me how beautiful I looked. I thanked them and encouraged them in their own modesty (these were Christian ladies who were wearing long dresses and some a headcovering). I figure all women of modesty should encourage one another. And you encouraged me, Ninja Mommy. Salaam Aleikum and thank you so much!
I started using a veil full time in public settings around a month ago. It's very comforting--I feel safe, it is beautiful, it speaks to personal autonomy and control over what people see of me and how they perceive me. It's also been a part of my expressing my current... spiritual and religious discovery. I'm working on converting to Judaism (I am culturally, but not religiously), so I guess it's more of a tichel. It's just been a really beautiful journey.
Also would like to thank you to opening my mind to wanting to learn more about Islam and the Quran. It seems to be a very loving and liberating way to live.
If you have any questions or queries please feel free to visit any mosque or Islamic center and ask your questions and clear your doubts. You can also get a free copy of Quran in any language you want.
@@waheedullahwafa9807 thank you for this information. I wasn’t sure if it would be disrespectful to walk in to a mosque. I don’t want to be disrespectful at all but I do want to learn.
Thank you so much for this video. I'm not Muslim but I like your dress code (hijab or niquab). And I'd like to dress like that, too. You gave me hope that Even if I'm not a Muslim, I can wear a hijab. Thank you very much up this video.✨
I’m Christian and we don’t wear this but whenever we are in church girls have to cover their hair with a net’ela. It’s similar to the hijab but it is more like a scarf and softer material.
Many Jewish women do also cover and practice modesty! I'm non secular and my fiance is Jewish, but when I do attend temple I see many covered women. They will even wear wigs so as to not show their hair. Thanks for teaching us all in a loving and kind way 🖤
Thank you for educating me. Since living in Japan, I have been so curious about other cultures, religions, and histories that weren’t taught in our American public schools. I really appreciate people who are willing to open up and discuss their practices. If more people were willing to listen to those who speak, we’d be in such a more peaceful place. Thank you!
I’m a pagan and I practice veiling which isn’t used for modesty but I have different styles of veil that I’ll wear depending on how I’m dressed, if I’m dressed normally I wear a veil with less coverage but if I wanna be modest (and honestly more comfy) I’ll wear a veil in the hijab style
I am not a Muslim but I have problems with my hair and the hijab has been the only alternative I have found to feel comfortable and protected. I have researched and read a lot. my problem is that since i am not a muslim i still dress as usual (i wear tight clothes sometimes or bare shoulders and legs) I don't want to disrespect the Muslim community, but the hijab is the only thing I've found refuge in so far, the only thing that allows me to feel comfortable in myself. at the same time I don't want to completely change the way I dress. I feel a little sad about it because I have read very different opinions about it
Ever since I've been watching your channel I've been wanting to wear a hijab and a niqab. I'm agnostic and want to learn more about religions at this time. But I hate going around in public without some kind of covering, it just doesn't feel right to me. WHenever I had to wear a mask during COVID I really loved it and felt so safe and secure. I didn't feel like I was being watched by people or judged. People tend to look or stare at me often so whenever I had a mask on, I just felt so much better about myself and I actually thought I was more beautiful with it. Since masks aren't mandatory anymore, I basically get watched whether or not I have a mask or no mask, which makes me so uncomfortable, but I still felt safer covering my face. Niqabs are so beautiful and I wouldn't feel judged this way. I want a boy to not base my looks on whether or not he wants to date me, only my personality and character. I've had guys look at my face and leave immediately! Like am I just not pretty enough for you? But whenever I was able to hide my face with a mask, people would have to get to know me as a person and love that part of me instead! That's how I was able to get my first boyfriend. He loved me for my personality and when he finally got to see my face, it never bothered him. I hate going in public now without some kind of covering and I feel like a niqab would be my way of feeling so so safe. I wouldn't wear it to 'attract boys to love my personality instead' but just to feel safe from all people to not see my face or body.
I was nervous about cultural appropriation too but Catholic nuns cover their hair, Jewish denominations and even baptist women wear large hats and long skirts with tights. It’s modesty in every religion if you look deeper. I want to start wearing hijabs and dressing more modestly.
I'm pagan and my patroness, Hestia, calls for some of her devotees to cover. For some its modesty and for others it's to remind themselves of their devotion and spirituality. For me it is both. I wear mostly the hijab and sometimes the tegidion ( looks like the niqab).
As a man I wanted to try it out to experience the world through it and also as a "social experiment" to see how people would treat me in my country where muslims are a minority. Why exactly did you say that men cannot wear it?
I kinda wanna wear a hijab sometimes but then other times I kinda wanna show off- (if I do wear a hijab I will cover up but when I’m not wearing it can I still wear revealing clothes?)
I'm an agnostic but I live in a city with a huge Muslim culture influence (Seville) and I've seen hijabis since I was a little girl. I always wanted to wear it because I think is beautiful, and I feel great in it but people around me always told me that it's not correct if I'm not Muslim and I felt very discouraged because I was really shy to ask a hijabi about it. Thanks to you and your channel my heart opened a lot more to it and I'm really thankful. You're a Queen!!! Thank you so much for all the information and respect 💕
I can’t believe how interested I am in Islam thanks to you and mubina. I have come to realize it is the only religion that I have researched so far that makes sense to me and find it amazing and very loving
