  • When fashion can change a global conversation.
    TEDxTeen opening music by BlackDoe
    Mariah recently became the world's first Muslim model in hijab for H&M, earning her worldwide attention. She has appeared on CNN, BBC News, ITV, CNN and NBC, and been featured in the New York Times, The Telegraph, The Daily Mail, Evening Standard and the Khaleej Times. She has been interviewed by BBC5 Live, BBC Asian Network, BBC1, as well as other radio stations worldwide, to discuss the issues around Muslims appearing in Western fashion. Mariah has continued to cause a stir in the fashion world, breaking the “Western ideals” of fashion. With appearances in Harper’s Bazaar, Dazed and Grazia, she has helped to change the modern perception of beauty. Mariah is not just concerned with making a name for herself in fashion. She wishes to inspire women all over the world with her message of equality.

    Salaam Aleykum. Some thoughts: I do understand that women of all religious or ethnic background, in a globalized world, will in one way or the other come in contact with fashion. and living in the west it also becomes difficult to pursuit a *normal* lifestyle, if you dont somehow take care of how you look. As a Muslimah I do follow other woman that wear hijab and try to make an effort to look neat, whether thats for fashion purposes, or just to look decent in your professional life, and in that case i do agree that its really nice to get inspiration off the net. but on the other hand i feel like its becoming this huge deal now, for muslim women, as if they almost feel like they need to 'make up' for their 'deficiency' (i.e. their hijab) by being the super fashionable one- and then everyone is concerned with their looks again. when i was younger i always struggled with the hijab because it was going to be the thing that in a secular society in the west, will somehow make me look *less attractive*, so to speak, but i felt like in that sense it was a way for me to struggle against the ego at least a little bit, and try and move away from a superficial world view of women, and people. it shouldn't matter how (muslim) women look,( because they want to please Allah not themselves or others). again i do think that in social media it has a positive effect aswell, in terms of building confidence in muslim girls, and providing inspiration for professional woman who want to look modest in terms of how they dress. but i hear a lot of young girls talk and feel like our conversations do get very shallow. and all of a sudden were no different then all those poeple who dont even believe in spirituality,
    non the less thank you for that nice talk may Allah protect you sister

      Do you really think that covering yourself will make you less "superficial" or more spiritual than those who don't cover themselves?
      Appearance is just the shell, It's only "inside" what counts and really matter.
      As a "spiritual" person you should know that...

    As like in any culture, most people wear their clothing like a potato bag, let's face it. As a European, i can totally appreciate the more modest ways of clothing and people exude their self or cultural worth in different ways. It doesn't have to be beauty and glamour first. It can be modesty as well. This is undervalued to the point of non-existence in our culture and i don't know why. I can fully enjoy the intricately draped, billowing headwear of the young Syrian woman or the regal traditional dress of my friend's mother, who is Turkish. I gasped when i first saw her. Black thick fabric with thin, beatifully embroidered details. Perfectly fitted, perfectly ironed. I had never seen anyone quite like her before. What a meticulously dressed lady. All i could wisper inside was "... wow" I prefer dressing modestly classy as well. I actually did follow a whole bunch of Muslim fashion lovers for a while, including wedding make-up artists and dress makers. Great fun. A world of confusion dissapeared for me. I dress the way i like, you dress the way you like. That's how i see it.

      --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      In 2000, the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) estimated that there were at least 5,000 honour killings world-wide annually, which may be an underestimate because many cases go unreported or are falsely reported as suicides.Footnote 6 Although this practice is currently primarily associated in media reports with certain Arab cultures, variations of harmful cultural practices toward women involving violence based on notions of honour have been known in many cultures world-wideFootnote 7 and in many historical times.

    There is 1 question that still lingers in my mind for a decade. If modesty is the essence and main purpose of covering up your body by wearing a hijab (i.e. trying not to be visually attractive to avoid being a lure to those who could potentially lust upon the you), why must women in hijab think about fashionable clothing and/or makeup?

    According to most imams the fashion hijab today is not Halal. The sanctioned conservative hijab should be covered and not be tight to show the body figure. It should also not be colourful as to not bring attention to men and be as loosely as possible.

    How come that we never see a man promoting islam in this kind of videos? We always see a youg nice woman. I guess it would be wierd to see a man saying than owning his wife and kids is peace and love and their patriarchy culture is acceptable. They always put a young woman to make it more soft and marketable, that´s kind of ironic knowing that women are the ones who suffer more that culure.

    • @amonbeck

      The headscarf is in every Abrahamic faith. The headscarf was used traditionally to protect a woman's most beautiful feature, her hair. It also allowed women of every social class to be protected from being kidnapped---as wealthy men's daughters and wives could be used as bargaining chips. Make women all look the same, disguise their appearance outside of the house, and then the possibility of danger is significantly decreased. The whole point of covering the body was to neutralize the inevitable possibility of violence towards women in ancient and nearer centuries. Now, the hijab and all other forms of head covering still protect against sun and as a form of modesty and faith practice for God. The headscarf is a personal item now worn by women for many reasons. There are even tribes in North Africa where it's men who wear headscarves. You have to look at body coverings or lack thereof based upon regional geography, ethnic/tribal/indigenous customs, faith practices, and historical social connotations. The meaning of body coverings change as we progress, not just in the Middle East, but all over the world. So, yes, women will change the meaning of the hijab, since it's original use is outdated and unnecessary for most regions of the world. The covering of the head is also found in China, India, North Africa, and South America. They are all different, but done for much the same reasons as you see in the Near East.

      L in Any evidence? Hijab doesn't only mean to wear a scarf and long clothes, it has many inplications. The whole point of hijab is to not look attractive or build unnecessary attraction to yourself such as colourful hijabs, tight long clothing, make up and so on. Where in the concept of hijab can you fit in fashion tell me if I am ignorant of it.

      Sarfraz Hanjrah I completely agree with you, I've always been amazed at women who wear Hijabs and cover themselves in make up and fake eyelashes etc. The Hijab is about modesty, so why wear one only to cover your face in make up that's designed to attract men? It's like they're trying to practice modesty while at the same time be sexy, I think they're very confused as most modern women are.
      You get a very strange result when Islam collides with Westernism. I recently saw a woman here in the local supermarket that was wearing a Hijab studded with diamonds, nothing modest about that. I also noticed that she had her boobs done, isn't that strange? What's the point of the hijab? Let's face it, it's a product of cultural habitualism and an expression that you belong to a particular group. This womans Hijab has nothing to do with modesty. Why even bother with it? If you want to be cool like a western woman, dress like a western woman, and be sexy like a western woman then why not just ditch the Hijab like many western Muslim women do?

    • @Urban_Revert
      @Urban_Revert 7 лет назад

      Yes you have it spot on mate, if you have a pure glass of water and put in any impurity it will not be pure, however small the amount of impurity was put in, same with Islam, once you put your cultural practices which are not Islamic together with Islam you will create a disaster. Hijab is not only the dress code, it's the way you walk, talk, behave and much more, when I went to College I was gobsmacked by the amount of girls wearing the hijab but had their breasts and backs out with tight clothing... Makes no sense, may Allah guide them.

    Yes, but what DO you think of ISIS? Very cute to make the hijab "fashionable", but not cute to co-opt what is fundamentally the tip of the iceberg of a culture of horrific abuses against women carried out in the name of "modesty" and "honour". I'm a life-long humanist liberal, and I am not buying the line that the hijab is a benign matter of women's personal choice.
