Bilqis Abdul-Qaadir knew she wanted basketball to be part of her life, but when the International Basketball Federation banned headwear and she was stopped short of playing professionally in her hijab, she sacrificed her dream career for her faith. She is a living example of someone striving to hold true to her principles in hostile places.
In her Confident Muslim talk, Bilqis talks about her early basketball career and her journey to choose faith over everything.
This session took place at the 2019 ISNA Convention in Houston, TX.

SubhanAllah I have been through similar situation where I really was in doubts and asked Allah for guidance. I remember coming home from New year party where Afghan People had gathering and danced together women and men....When I came home that night, my heart was restless, I did not enjoy what we were doing at all. I asked Allah truly from the buttom of my heart to make me busy with something that make me forget doing these sins. I asked Him to guide me and rest my heart in His path. From that day, every thing changed in my life...

There you go , your sacrifice of playing basketball 🏀 was for a much higher calling, a spokeswoman for the Muslim youth who need to understand, their true identity not what the average human beings are blindly doing along with the others. It’s actually the entire attitude that go along with wearing & acting like a perfect Muslima. Girl you found your true purpose now. Keep it up!💫

SubhanAllah!! I can relate to this so much. When i moved to Australia from Dubai..It was like an impossible challenge to find work in the construction industry. All my friends were indirectly advising me to take off the Hijab as it doesn't fit in the industry and corporate world, I will face racism, and feel excluded etc. I got the thought to try it so many times..I even tried wearing it loose ..but felt so guilty and uneasy that I decided, If have to get a job, it will be with the hijab on, this is my identity.Allah will find a way, my job is to keep trying. I was also wary of what my daughter would learn from me. Hijab is not just a piece of cloth. Alhamdulillah, Allah did find a way, not just any job but a good one with an Australian company that truly values diversity and also gave me the flexibility to work from home 3 days a week..the Aayah that kept me going was.. "And whoever fears Allah - He will make for him a way out. And will provide for him from where he does not expect. And whoever relies upon Allah - then He is sufficient for him."

I asked Allah to protect you & keep you away from shaitan & make you a great example for others & grant you & your kind husband the paradise, Ameen 🤲
