“Anyone who trains himslef to be patient, Allah will give him the strenght to be able to be patient.” (Rasulullah SAW)

They look at my scarf and try to diagnose me with a cure
but what they don’t realize is that I am beautiful, strong and secure.
But you see my security does not come from mini skirts and see through tops
and high heels that make my hips go tick-tock.
The radiance on my face can’t be bought at the counter of a drug store;
from Revlon or Maybelline, you see it’s that new shade, it’s called noor.
It stems from the roots that bare the fruits of my eman,
so would the real cover girl please stand up, then bow down in sujood
and patiently rest your forehead against the floor,
whispering words that will purify your soul.
From Fajr to Isha I search for the deeds
that will satisfy my spiritual needs
yet they cut their eyes
and they stigmatize
this simple scarf I wear.
But that’s okay, because on that Great Day
it’s that simple scarf that will testify to Allah and say
that I obeyed His command each day.
Have a Blissful Day Hijabis ♥
If you can’t love her in a jilbab/hijab/niqab, you can’t truly love her in anything else either. She will be most beautiful to you when she is obeying her Lord. She will be the most beautiful when she is trying to make her way to Jannah. And if you can’t see the beauty in that, then your perspective of beauty is distorted. If you can’t love her enough to help her attain Jannah, then perhaps you don’t love her at all!
