Denied anything b/c of your hijaab?

[Dhers]

Asalamu alaykum, this goes mostly for the sisters {but brothers can join in too}. Have anyone of you been denied entrance to a country, coffee shop, a job, or anything else because you observe the full hijaab? What about the niqab?

I'm asking this because I was recently watching a program on Primetime about a Muslim woman being denied to be a customer at a bakery because she was wearing the hijaab (this was set up by the way, both are actors). The man was making very racist statements and the overwhelming majority did nothing about it, 6 people stepped in, and 3 people agreed with him.

For me, I've been called a terrorist, raghead, thick-eared (that doesn't make sense) and a tent-wearer because I decide to cover myself properly for Allah. It really does not bring my imaan down, but for some sisters it really does. Some even decide to take off the hijab after that because it's just too much for them to handle. :-(

So I'd like to hear your experiences about this, as discriminatory occurences have been happening to me very recently. Jazakallah khair in advance.

i wanted to play on my school's varsity track team when I was 14. i was denied, because my coach said that my hijaab would create resistance to the wind and slow me down.

what should I have done, because that day, I quit school sports.

You shouldn't have given up aww, Allah has something in store for you. If you give up something for Allah, then he will give you something better than what you've given up in return (saheeh hadith).
