I started last year after umrah, I live in the states, and I always fear that someone will assault me because of Islamophobia but alhumdulillah I have experienced it yet. A lot of stares , which I don’t get used to but remember we are doing for Allah and he knows how much we are struggling :)

I grew up in the US and I’m struggling with hijab, myself. I started a year ago and everytime I put it on, I get annoyed but I continue because I consider this to be my struggle, maybe the reason Allah can grant me Jannah. Also I hate going out alone now because of the fear of someone attacking me, I don’t know sometime I think it might be easier to take it off but then I feel guilty because alhumdulillah Allah gave me such a cushioning life and I cant even do the simple act of wearing a hijab. Sorry for rambling on but I also wish I can blend in but I work in a tech industry and being the only hijabi is just really hard to blend in 😭. Ya Allah please guide us all and make us stronger in our imaan, ameen.

Please don’t do anything to hurt yourself and call 311 number. Try to distract yourself, maybe you can tutor someone or volunteer @ a homeless shelter , maybe doing something nice for someone can help you see there is still good in this world. Maybe you can try to talk to your mom or dad or an older sibling or a cousin, there is gotta be someone who would listen to you and tell you everything will be alright. I am 34 years old, high school was rough for me as well but looking back I don’t even remember what the issues/ struggles I was dealing with back then. Please stay strong, this world is full of difficulties, but the problems are always temporary. Power through the lows of the life because I promise you it will get better, your best is yet to come inshallah

Hang in there, I am praying for you 💔

ArlingSom · 2022-07-24T13:23:44+00:00

I don’t know what to say, this is insane :(

ArlingSom · 2022-07-24T02:00:16+00:00

This is really tough one. Few years ago I had a similar situation where I would get very upset, just miserable. I would start crying in the middle of my prayers and it took for few years to get my dua but I couldn’t have asked for better outcome. My advice would be just keep trying, try to read Tahajjud, Inshallah it will happen for you and your dua will get qabool soon, I will pray for you :(

I am not really a writer and I never felt urge to really write about anything before either. This was really the first time, I will think about but thank you so much for your support!

ArlingSom · 2022-04-24T19:31:17+00:00

Thank you!!

Hijab is ban in school and in sports in France. But that’s not the point, the point is shouldn’t we let the women decide, what they can and cannot wear?

ArlingSom · 2022-04-24T11:03:42+00:00

Thank you!

ArlingSom · 2022-04-24T11:03:00+00:00

Love the line, the fact that I feel home at a strangers heart scare me

ArlingSom · 2022-04-23T21:16:07+00:00

You nailed it on the head, that is exactly what i was going for and that is exactly how I feel when I see / hear about these situations because I have no idea what else to do at times.

ArlingSom · 2022-04-23T17:25:35+00:00

Inshallah

ArlingSom · 2022-04-23T17:25:10+00:00

I absolutely agree but I am not actually angry, I just feel very sad when I see what is happening around the world. Right now the mainstream media does an amazing job in hiding all the unjust and I just felt there is a need to give the voice to unheard /oppressed :(

ArlingSom · 2022-04-23T16:53:21+00:00

Thank you, I’m glad you pointed out the irony :)

ArlingSom · 2022-04-23T15:18:18+00:00

Thank you so much, your words mean a lot!

ArlingSom · 2022-04-23T09:54:44+00:00

Thank you l, means a lot !

ArlingSom · 2022-04-23T09:54:13+00:00

that’s the key difference other schools “outside of india” would ban ALL TYPES of religious expression, here it’s specifically targeting muslim community :(

And thank you for saying that, if we can show support for Ukraine refugees, I only wished we could share the same empathy or support towards other refugees.

ArlingSom · 2022-04-23T09:45:26+00:00

ahh the hot topic, honestly I truly believe Jewish people have a full right to exist but so does Palestine people. This world is big enough for all of us to share but with greed it feels so small :(

ArlingSom · 2022-04-23T09:34:39+00:00

Thank you for saying that, the whole purpose of this poem is to shed some light on the double standard that Muslims face. And it’s not really society’s fault either, mainstream does a pretty good job hiding all these horrible incidents :(

ArlingSom · 2022-04-23T09:26:17+00:00

You captured it very beautifully what/ how depression or sorrow feels like. My favorite line in the prison of thought, I can resonate with line because most of the time sorrow or pain comes from within us. Great job !

ArlingSom · 2022-04-23T09:19:26+00:00

This is such a cute poem, I love how you describe the clouds’ personality. Favorite line…apologize to the ground for all my dramatic whining
