Why i was afraid to wear the hijab.

Post by ADIDAS_hoodie »

s/c


i thought i'll share it with you lot because its the most amazing thing that has ever happened to me.

Prior to wearing my hijab and dressing in a modest manner i used to do alot of things (which im sure most of you can relate to) but never beyond my boundaries.

I was terrified of wearing the hijab for some strange reason i was unable to comprehend at the time. I always used to say i will start wearing it full-time when i get married or when Allah swt guides me.

But after some time i realised what it was i was scared of there plenty of girl i know that wear the hijab on a on and off basis go clubbing/ weddings and its off without a thought smoke pot subxanalla.

so i thought i'd be 100 times better than them if i am clean but dressed in a inappropriate manner according to the teaching of islam. I was afraid i'd end up like them

It was just coming up to my 18th birthday and as usual you expect some things to change but they didnt in my case i was the same person as ever (well after my quran tutor gave up and my head-scarf came flying off at the age of 13).

Ive always been a deen orientated person deep down inside took much pride in my deen. Anyways one day about a year ago me and my girls we're sitting in a shisha place as usual discussing the usual our next soon to be joint brehs food you name it and deen always comes up one day a freind of mine was telling me about some girl that used to go to her college how she started speaking in arabic and acting hysterical doing many thing muslim girls wouldnt dare dream doing.

Keeping the long story short i broke down into tears i cried so hard that night that i couldnt speak i was so depressed not becaused i feared that might happen to me but because i feared the day of judgment and i was by far not ready to die now i know i havent done anything too extreme but my good deeds were here and there and often contiplated.
That night when i got home i made a prayer to Allah swt from the bottom of my heart i just wanted some courage to change my ways and guide me.

Soon after i woke up one morning and i thought ''right today is a new day allah swt has granted me so what have i to lose'' without a doubt i knew it was the right time for me to go back to practisng my religion.

i cant explain the feeling i had butterflies in my stomach my head was clear i knew exactly what i wanted i felt pure and untouchable.

I didnt know how to thank Allah swt so i started going to islamic talks watching the islamic channel on sky 813 alhamdulilaah all praise due to Allah swt i feel brilliant with my new look and what kept me motivated was when i came to work for the first day in my hijab and i got plenty of compliments here and there much to everyone's suprise that i work with they had no idea i was a muslim i was gob-smacked of course but now i know where i belong and the hijab comes with plenty of responsibilites something i am adjusting to very well alhamdulilaah.

My friends always ask me what made you wear the hijab and act different i just tell them time and time again i prayed and my prayers have been answered.

An extra bonus is my mother walks with her head up high now that i am fully covered.


All Praise Due To Allah swt!!

Salam Alekum, sister your story really got to me walahi, because its so similiar to mine sis i was the same when i was 15 i never used to cover up and i knew what i was doing was wrong i had too much pride not in a good way though, subxannalah but i used to think i change later when i am married. If i cover up that means I have to change! I cant believe those words came out of my mouth.

I felt as if I wanted to change but some stupid reason always stopped me.
When i became 16 i was still the same in denial as always, Allah swt wasnt in my thoughs at all. Then one day this sister preached to me she touched my heart I cry up to this day everytime i remember her.
She spoke to the truth, reminded me about death about Allah swt how will i face to Allah swt my creators knowing i displeased him?

Now I am 17 and i practise i am covered as well and I am so happy Alhamdullah i have been blessed Allah swt guided me, I sometime preach to other sisters inshallah i will have the same impact the sister had on me.

Adidas I am glad you started practising, manshallah sis spread the message of Islam, and well done Smile

Allah swt knows best

Ma’shallah, both amazing stories, and hope they encourage others, I wasn’t 100% until my 16th and life after just got easier. Waalahi sometimes you don’t realize it but Allah works in mysterious ways.And when you hear Allah never burdens any1 with something they can’t handle, its true and you always find out when you struggle with life…all that’s left is Allahnduillah.

Dirty goodz Allah swt will show you the right path but you have to take the first step, by praying to Allah swt and asking him to show you the right path. I know is hard but inshallah Allah swt will make it easier for you, have Allah swt in your heart think of Alah swt every second of the day, fast it actually helps. Allah swt knows best.
