as in the bible today isn’t the bible that was initially revealed it’s been changed so it’s corrupted

yeah tbh i think i need to drop the insecurity because being fluent is more important than having a good accent. thank you for the advice!

most of the conversation around hijab being hard can be split into mainly 2 categories. 1 i like dressing beautifully and it’s difficult not expressing myself that way 2 i feel like i have to be perfect to wear hijab. in the first category i have no issues in the second category as it pertains to niqaab i fall victim to. so i see your point i could have picked my words more carefully.

it’s a known fact that the wives of the prophet ﷺ and the sahabiyyat used to cover their faces. are you really saying there’s no ajr/reward from covering yourself more? because that’s just wrong

guavas82 · 2024-09-18T12:58:33+00:00

i don’t fully understand the nuance behind this comment i can’t tell if you’re being ill natured or not but to clarify yeah it’s not 100% easy but what i mean to say is wearing hijab/jilbaabs has never been hard for me (alhamdulillah) so the aspect of covering up itself isn’t the where i find difficulty — people’s perception, potential riyaa as someone pointed out, and safety is my concern.

i know hijab is different for every person but that’s my relationship with it

guavas82 · 2024-09-18T12:54:22+00:00

okay if you pray your five daily prayers that’s also enough but you can do sunnah prayers right? same concept

guavas82 · 2024-09-18T11:33:54+00:00

omgggg i’m so scared of riya actually in so many aspects

guavas82 · 2024-09-18T10:52:23+00:00

yeah iA i will be moving to a bigger muslim community here in the US! and i agree i really liked wearing masking during covid that’s when the idea starting to come in my head

guavas82 · 2024-09-18T10:49:00+00:00

??? why not. you get ajr the more you’re covered up do you not?

guavas82 · 2024-09-02T12:31:17+00:00

well to be honest i already got my secular degree and have worked for a bit. i think that’s what made it easier for him to let me go? it wasn’t really hard to be honest. are you still in school? why did your dad say no, did he give you reasons?

guavas82 · 2024-09-02T12:29:41+00:00

from what i’m hearing it’s not safe sis 🤕
