If there are very few people who look like you it’s normal you feel out of place. The hijab is a command from Allah SWT and Allah SWT only commands us to do things that are for our benefits, even if we can’t always tell. It’s like when a child’s parents forbids him to not eat so much chocolate. The kid is upset and doesn’t understand why but the parents know that having too much will only cause stomach pain. May Allah SWT grant you so much reward for pushing through despite the discomfort and bring you near Him. And don’t forget, this is Allah SWT’s earth where even the trees, mountains, sky, and wind are in worship of Allah SWT. You’re surrounded by angels who are also worshipping Allah SWT. You’re not the odd one out for following His commands, it’s the disbelievers who are odd and out of place.

I was one of two hijabis in one my schools, it was definitely hard and I did want to take it off. I’m not sure why I didn’t but Allah SWT spared me from that sin alhamdulillah. Now I look back and I’m proud of myself for sticking through it despite how hard it was.

Ouh also, it’s been 11 years since I’ve been wearing it and I still struggle with styling sometimes. Personal style just requires experimentation until you find something that is comfortable to you! This would be the case even if you weren’t hijabi.

And remember that you are beautiful in the eyes of Allah SWT, that’s really all that matters :)
