Hijab

Be Nice.

I've started wearing the hijab officially; it doesn't feel like me yet, but I've been considering it for a long time. The majority of my family members don't wear hijabs because they don't give a damn whether anyone does. I'm glad I made the decision on my own instead of having someone tell me to. My country has strange unwritten norms that don't make sense, and one of them is that all women should wear the hijab. I would argue that the reason I didn't wear the hijab was to be spiteful of males lol, and my country's society. Tho it isn't unusual because some women and girls don't wear it. while some of the girls simply wear it and take it off when they travel, but I disagreed with that (for my own self). I didn't care about anyone, and I most definitely didn't want to dress hypocritically for a society like that. Though I've seemed to forget that the fundamental reason for all of this is to worship Allah, I've realized that the major reason I don't wear the hijab is also the reason why others do. like I know that I don't wear the hijab due of society, so technically I contradict myself. I preach that I could care less about social opinions, but I act in a way that is always in opposition to them. Does that not reflect my own concern? fortunately my path is solely religious, and while I'm still figuring out my style, my life is essentially the same. The only thing that has changed thus far is how modestly I dress.

I still have difficulties praying and being present for Allah, thus my journey as a Muslim is far from ideal. However, I have learned from my studies that God Almighty and All-Merciful will always lead me to become my best self; all I need to do is follow the road that has been carved out for me.
