to each his own man.
First of all, you ppl need to mind your business. Maybe the guy the hijabi is with is her husband? has that thought ever occurred to you? and second, what exactly is the definition of a "boyfriend" in the Islamic sense? i kno this is offtopic and there'll be ishtloads of debate about hwo i'm wrong (or maybe not and ill be ignored) but there is a "halal" way to date...anyway..from what i know and have seen, it is usually the girls who are forced to wear hijab that do things like hang over guys, or go buck wild. While hijab is fard, it does not mean that anyone, be it ur parents or society, has the right to force you to wear it.
edit .. I didn't read the above post.
huh?
Yes hijabis are very visibly Muslim so we have more expectations of them. But it is funny how we judge them more harshly for the same sins that a non-hijabi would commit. I've seen people who pray five times and day and read Quran but go around and swear at someone and nobody gives a crap, it's almost like wearing a hijab is more pious than namaz and we hold hijabis to greater scrutiny than those who pray.
Anyway who cares. It's Allah mian who judges and forgives sins, not a bunch of jealous gossipy overly critical people so who are we to condemn them? :)
Allah knows whats in someones heart, ...we for one dont.
mightve been her husband..
or brother or a friend..

thats right, who r we to judge? but if they have such an uncontrolable urge over their hormones then atleast keep it private. the only reason i see it as something objectionable is coz it's giving islam a bad name, and im saying that living amongst non-muslims who quite frankly think we're a confused bunch and don't know what we're doing. if u're projecting urself as the muslim icon then atleast live up to ur image. whatever is done behind closed doors is between u and ur God but it shudnt be projected knowing its doing no good for the religion in the eyes of the kufaar. its quite hypocritical as far as they can see it... oh and im saying this in regards to explicit actions performed in public, not for merely being accompanied by a guy so dont take me wrong here.
maybe i missed something, but exactly how was that hijabi wiht her boyfriend behaving? I know of hijabis who have boyfriends, but don't hang all over him, i.e., kissing, making out or anything like that in public, because the majority of them are aware of the fact that htey are hijabis, therefore representations of Islam. It's not fair, but tha'ts how it is.
However, i have seen women in full niqab holding hands with her hubby.

Worst case scenario, even if she is the guy's girlfriend. It's her buisness. She getting sin for it not anyone else. Stop poking your nose in other people's business. Live and let live.
That was my $0.02. :p
[/steps off soapbox]
Funny how quickly we pick on hijabis and other visible Muslims.
Try putting yourselves in their shoes sometime.
Don't go making assumptions about others and before pointing fingers at others, I think we all need to look at our own character and behaviour.
None of us are perfect especially when it comes to practicing religion. Hence, there is no need to criticize others.

it's a super trend here in uk....where muslim girls are covering the head with a piece of cloth not even the size of a proper hijab, revealing their upper half....tight tops and jeans..make up and sometimes even hair dangling through their so called hijab's! walking around with guys....laughing...giggling...swearing......taking the mick out of people....not praying!
it's terrible...misinterpreting the whole idea of a hijab....!
i dont know if it is the same else where....

well said bud', the situation in england is bad but then again not every hijaban is like this here, sadly on a minority r fine rest r over the top to put it lightly.
I just read what I wrote more than a year ago. Jeez Louise!!!
sigh Time flies by and people change/grow.
Back on topic ... seriously, who really cares?
i just began wearing hijab, so i don't know if i should be offended by what i've been seeing written here.
Sara,
I think most of us here know that there are a lot of genuinely sincere Muslims out there who wear the hijab properly and out of pure love for Islam. You have the same thing with non-hijabi girls, who ARE ‘good’ cause they choose to be. You have your bad apples though in both groups.
As long as you are being true to yourself, don’t let what others say(including what I wrote last year in this thread) upset you.
I’m sorry if I did offend you or anybody else. What can I say, I was 23 then. 
Sara516, there's no need to be offended. Much of what has been said about the hijabis in general is true.
May Allah (SWT) forgive us all, guide us all to the Straight Path and keep us steadfast on it, ameen.
Who Cares. I know a lot of Devout muslims who drink and say their prayers. Whats funny though is that they will never hold their drink in their right hand.
