PS: ninja is a derogatory term which means janwar you arent giving them the due respect.
Re: Hijabi girls/women..
Why do hijabis always have their own group?
Re: Hijabi girls/women..
^birds of feather and all. though this isnt exactly true, plenty hijabi groups have non hijabis as well.
Re: Hijabi girls/women..
Hijab is an order in the Qur’an. Some of us like to fool ourselves by saying oh what is the need as long as our intentions are good and all. Dil saaf hona chahiyay. Yes yes but it is still an order just like namaz and roza and zakat. If we don’t wear it, at least we shouldn’t defend ourselves, and instead hope that we get the courage to wear it some day.
:hinna:
WIth that said, I think many non-hijabis like to give lectures on Islam as well, many non hijabis are extremely judgemental and point fingers at others. Allah knows best but such people may get double gunnah…one for their arrogance/fingerpointing and one for not wearing hijab. 
The wicked lady in hijab gets credit points for covering her head and sattar, at least.
^niksik i officially declare my love for you 
Re: Hijabi girls/women..
and croquet, I for you 
Re: Hijabi girls/women..
^ true said, and I acknowledged before, some members have given pretty good responses which make a lot of sense. While some of us have resorted to bitter personal comments - perhaps depicting the insecurities and bitterness which I mentioned in the beginning of this thread. Anyway, thank you for your input, and happy bashing! 
Why do hijabis always have their own group?
To some extent it is their own fault and to some extent a major role is played by the non-hijabis through their prejudice against hijabis picking on their mistakes by catagorizing them as hijabis, but that shouldn't encourage hijabis to separate themselves. Both the groups should learn to live together and tolerate.
Re: Hijabi girls/women..
Cannot generalize like this.
Some of the 'maulvis' are the nicest persons around some are really filthy in their dealings with others. Some 'madran khawateen' are the loveliest people in terms of caring for fellow human beings and some are b*t*h*s.
Re: Hijabi girls/women..
the apple-bottom hijab with the reeboks and the furrrr, the whole madrassa was lookig at hurrrr
My Khala is a hijabi.. I love her to bits! BUT she has a habbit of preaching and not practicing and I make sure to bring it up every time. She'll stop by younger sister from finding faults in people's dress- sense and within the same minute she'll do it.
With no offense, her being hijabi doesn't make her behave like that. Even if she didn't wear hijab she would have behaved like that. But in that case most probably her double standard attitude wouldn't have been mentioned in this thread by categorizing her as a "non-hijabi" case.
In simple words, no noble act brings bad attitude in people. The bad attitude was always there, after doing hijab that bad attitude was "more" focused. There are loads of my relatives who are non-hijabi but love to preach to others what they don't practice, that doesn't mean I mention all of them as "non-hijabi" case with double standards. Because their double standards doesn't have anything to do with their being non-hijabi.
I understand that your intentions might not have been to imply that her being hijabi makes her behave like that, but the example of your khala when mentioned in this thread would definitely give this impression to people.
It's a generalization.. that the thread opener posted.. we're all posting our views and observations. With the exception of a few hijabi's, most of them love preaching and dictating and controlling. It's an observation and nothing more..
At Uni, there used to be a girl that hated me for speaking to guys (on the fone) and lectured me 24/7 how wrong it is to be speaking to a non-mehram.. same week she was caught being dropped-off campus by a senior. It's not the hijab that's the issue..it's the double-standards and hypocrisy.

With no hijab, no reeboks and fur, the perverts would still have looked at her.
Again, it is the problem with people when they make a wrong choice, but it has nothing to do with a noble act of doing hijab.
For example. If a woman comes to office with shalwaar qamees that is made with a very thin cloth. Now the good men would as usual keep their gaze low while the bad ones would consider this as another aportunity of staring. In any case the problem is not with her selecting shalwaar qameez, but the problem is with her choice of selecting a see through cloth.

…of that “woman” NOT of that “Hijabi”. Because this means that she is actually using Hijab not for pleasing her lord but for satisfying her “hollier than thou” attitude.
Hijabi term should only be used for a woman whose acts clearly shows that her intentions of doing hijab is only for Allah (swt) and not for any wordly benefit. No one is perfect but the one who at least tries her level best to keep her intentions pure.
Because when we use the term “hijabi” for the kind of people you mentioned, it brings a bad name to this noble act and all the noble people whose intentions of doing hijab are pure.
:S it’s a generalization made by the poster to which we’re expressing our observations. I didn’t tag them all as hypocritical creatures!
Bashing? This is not bashing.
Anyhow Jaanwar, why are u so reluctant to answer, do you think your own attitude may have something to do with the bitter responses that you have experienced from hijaabi’s?
As a general rule, people’s words or behaviour PROVOKES a response, could be good, could be bad, but it’s response all the same.
Re: Hijabi girls/women..
I think the thread opener just opened a can of worms and now seems afraid to respond to any challenges to his bigoted views. How typical.
From my personal experiences, I have met many judgemental, narrow minded, overly and unnecessarily defensive and even racist non hijabi gals, than i have of similiar attitude hijabis. And the only reason I noticed this several years ago, was because to be honest, I actually expected the opposite. However that doesnt marr my opinion of them in general mostly because it seems more of a personality thing rather than anything else.
Simliarly, there are plenty of narrow minded hijabis, but i dont think it is the hijab that is causing the attitude as maybe the personality/upbringing.
Secondly, IMO to question the point of someone's hijab is akin to someone claiming to be muslim but not completing the wajibats, i.e. muslim in name only. Now those folks who are in this boat, I dont want to use the H word, but what makes you so different to the very hijabis you are so easy slandering?
Aren't you getting on your high horse here and preaching what she should and shouldn't be doing? pray tell, what makes you any different?
