My comment was more emphasised on myself as a non-hijabi!

From personal experience I believe hijabans spend more time focusing on their appearance then anything else anyway. I know a lot of girls who wear the hijab and only a few wear it properly. Also, I think their is too much focus on the visible appearance of a women rather than other aspects of her such as her morals and beliefs. Quran mentions covering of the head two times (from what I remember). There’s a whole lot more focus on other sins so I don’t understand why it attracts so much attention.

It’s interesting that you say that, because I take like 2 hours getting ready…. Yes I’m a hijabi and modesty is the first thing I think of when choosing an outfit. BUT that doesn’t mean I also don’t think fashion. When I go out into the public I do like people to look at me, but as an example for non-Muslims that what you see on TV is false and Muslim women are not suppressed and I choose to wear my hijab and I LOVE IT. And an example for Muslim girls wanting to wear hijab but may not have the courage, that you can wear it AND look good.

I’m not gonna lie, when I first started, I made some not-so modest choices, but with time you learn the power of hijab and that to be a hijabi you don’t have to sacrifice your fashion sense.
