Yes, another thread about them.
Call it generalization, but it is based on experience and discussion with other people. Unfortunately, some 70% (the split goes 70% typically bitter, 25% looking for business and the remaining 5% being those who wear hijab for whatever reasons but are calm and relaxed and not bitter) of hijabis that I have encountered are annoyingly argumentative and consider it their assigned responsibility to win arguments by including passing judgements on people. For some reason, they seem to believe that since they are wearing hijab, not only that they are superior to other beings, including women who decide not to wear hijab, but also they are the authority on social and religious issues. A hijabi, agreeing with someone on a social and/or religious matter, is a rare,rare,rare sight.
Now my idea is, dressing surely is important, but not as important as how pure your inner self is. Unless you are dressing inappropriately i.e. exposing yourself or wearing something too tight or otherwise unacceptable considering our social, cultural and religious background (the combined one), whether or not you decide to wear a hijab is a matter of personal choice and personal comfort, and it has less to do with how righteous you are. Righteousness comes from within, and social skills and how you treat others is one of the most important factors in any religion and society. If wearing hijab equates ill social manners, I am sorry but I would rather take a non-hijabi’s word. Given my experience of interacting with hijabis, I already avoid them (but do give them due respect, apart from calling them ninjas).
What I am wondering is, what exactly goes on in their heads and what makes them so bitter in general? Some insecurities, feeling of being holier than thou, compulsive arguments being a service to religion?
PS - my interaction, incase one would want to know, has been in school, college, business meetings, courses and other official interactions which naturally includes discussion on non-official matters.
