Re: damn it!
I was living with my MIL and SILs and they all wore head scarves and in the beginning did try to make me wear it but I never agreed with their interpretation of hijab. But my inlaws are fairly religious, they always used to play lectures of scholars and stuff in the house and after my husband kept a beard I felt he was embarrassed of me for not covering my head in front of his friends, but obviously no one ever forced me…so it was sort of my own decision.
I don’t wear a scarf now and when I go out with hubby I don’t feel odd, though I cover my head if we are going to a religious gathering or a religious family’s house. But now that I’m a mature woman, I can make my own decisions without anyone’s influence. So I started wearing it, took it off after 7 years…but who knows I might wear it again one day.
But I’ve learnt one thing in this process which is never to judge others based on their outlook (hijabi or non-hijabi).
