Re: So what do you do if husband doesn't like your hijab
I think there is some insecurity in him about something that we havent pinpointed yet. If he was fine with the hijab before marriage, was he initially blinded by love to not care and then the reality hit him...or is he used to hijab because he own family members may also wear hijab?
If he was blinded by love, something might have changed in the dynamics of the relationship. Maybe he doesnt feel so loved any more and feels that she spends too much time with the religious friends and not enough with him. I am jealous of hubbys friends because they always talk for hours and hours but he never talks more than a few minutes with me!
If he isnt ready for the strictness of his wifes religious beliefs, they must talk and try to find middle ground. She will obviously not compromise with him on her beliefs of nikaab etc..so perhaps he can limit their outings to events where there is segregated parties and she doesnt wear nikaab there. Communication is vital and if the wife truly loves him, she will try to find a compromise for his happiness.
I do believe that there may also be a possibility that he is struggling with his own identity. Perhaps he wants to be a good Muslim and secretly admires his wife for her devotion and wishes he could also be as religious as her but just doesnt know how to give it all up.
This is a tough one and a friend of mine divorced his first wife when he became enlightened and wanted her to wear hijab and she refused. Having a religious understanding in a relationship is as important as emotional understanding.
