I was afraid to wear Hijab...but now I am just going to do it...for a month straight I’ve been seeing dreams of wearing hijab, laughing and enjoying and I am not religious but since those dreams I started praying...and my heart just yearned for hijab...♥️ inshallah I am gonna wear it. Edit; Alhemdurallah I've been wear for hijab for 4 months now!😘
Hi there! Reading your message put a big smile on my face. It reminded me 2 verses from the Quran: Holy Qur’an, al-Anfal 24: “O you who believe! Respond to God and to the Messenger when the Messenger calls you (in the Name of God) to that which gives you life, and know well that surely God "intervenes" between a person and his heart (to cause his heart to swerve); and that He it is to Whom you will be gathered.” Holy Qur’an, al-An’am 125: So whoever Allah wants to guide - He expands his breast to [contain] Islam It seems like Allah is guiding your heart! There is a team called Reverthelp team. They help people with their questions about Islam. You should get in touch with them. Their INSTAGRAM page is @revert_help
@@hannahlights2916 thank you for sharing that information. I have been wearing a niqab out to the stores since March of this year. I have been getting a lot of looks at first, then when COVID-19 was in full force people were more at ease. I even had a lady ask me where I got mine from. I am going to be wearing this niqab for a while. I am not completely sure why women wear it, but I know in biblical times women were covered up. Thanks for responding.
I'm a brand new revert, like 3 weeks ago. And I am still worried about wearing hijab. I have bought a couple and wear them when praying but I want to take the next step and wear it full time. Please make Dua that I will have the strength. Insha Allah
i made up my mind about 2 hrs ago that , today was the day to wear the hijab.. And i come across this video and i am in tears because your story and your advice hits home.. thank you for sharing ..
I was born as Muslim. At the age of 62 I only help one person to revert to Islam. But you only after a few years revert to Islam you already take a shahadah of one lady. I envy your success. Subhanallah.
A khimar in arabic is a covering. Like a covering for the floor, table, window. It’s a physical covering of something. The aya says to strike a covering over their pockets. The term pockets is used because it has a physical and psychological meaning. God didn’t use the term breast or chest deliberately. The Koran never talked specifically about hair covering. That’s what we humans made it. The interpretations nowadays about the Koran, and not only about the hijab, are really worrying. The hijab has been materialised. The Koran has been materialised. This is really concerning. I really hope muslim women start to open this discussion, because after all, they are wearing the symbol of the materialised Islam. It’s time to go back to the essence of Islam, and to fulfil our journey in this world as was asked by God, not by sheiks that are imposing interpretations that are dividing us, and are leading is to an earthly existing.
U can start wearing it part time Then slowly u will eventually in sha Allah feel comfortable to wear it full time you'll see You will feel so much closer to Allah swt that peoples comments stares comments etc will literally be a blurr. Yeah ppl do say stuff at th start. But TRUST ME if u dont giv them reaction, they will get bored and go pik on someone else more "interesting" lol I went through it when i first started covering head to toe Going part time is a really good start All th best girls ♡♡♡
Omg the being hot, THE FEELS!!! I have chronic illnesses that make being hot VERY dangerous for me. The biggest advice is wearing the right fabrics! Don’t wear a thick cotton scarf if it’s super hot out. Wear a thin chiffon or breathable cotton or jersey scarf. It definitely helps keeping cool easier. Or if you know it’s going to be a particularly hot day, stick your scarf in the freezer the night before😂😂😂 seriously! And definitely probably not smart to wear a volumizer or underscarf. Just gotta find what works for you. I’ve even sat in the backyard for a few minutes with a few different styles or layers to see how each fabric would act.
I feel so much prettier without it and everytime I have a slight intention to wear it, I see people on social media/public places that look so cuutee with beautiful hair and short dresses etc.😭 I’m so worried and its so hard to fight shaiton’s whispers
That is worldly beauty my dear. If you really love those dresses and hair for YOURSELF. you can just dress like that at home with your mehrams. Please know that this beauty is given to you by Allah and then it's Allah's command for you to cover it. It's a test for you if you love Allah more or this worldly beauty more. The beauty standard is created by humans. But the beauty standard of Allah is that you cover it but also you can enjoy your hair and beautiful ( modest) dresses with your husband, father, children and brothers and other women. The ones that really matter. May Allah make it easy for you. Ameen
I have the same exact problei am 12 yr old and every time i even think of wearing the hijab i see people on social media with there hair and there short clothes and just feel so like what will I do if i wear what will people say
Thank you sister for all your replies I give you 100/100 You are absolutely right in every answer You are so brave , so confident, so true My Allah bless you and guide you always
Alhumdulilah when your first hijab video came out a few weeks ago I was not a hijabi but now I am! 😊 I've been wanting to wear it for years now but was too scared to ALHUMDULILAH I made dua and got the courage to do it. The way I thought of it was that the people that youbare scared arw going to judge you won't be there with you in your grave THEY won't have to answer to Allah YOU will. Also Samantha may Allah bless you, you have really inspired/motivated me to read more into my religion for what it actually is. I make dua for you and your mom, may Allah guide her :) 💓
Samantha J Boyle today was my first step .. But Honestly im little excited and scarred when im going to uni with it 🙈 but inshallah he will give me strength!
I'm a new revert and the closest I got to wearing a hijab in public is this profile picture, I am excited of wearing one everyday especially at college, and I'm so nervous but I know that my friends' and classmates' reactions will last for a few days or weeks but they'll get used to it and over it after a while. The first day will be the toughest. But the people who actually love me will accept my decision. If my hijab will push people away, maybe they're not exactly the right type of people to have around me. Thank you for the motivation sister ❤️
@@translationmlt2128 haha i actually started wearing the hijab shortly after I posted this comment. Aand Alhamdulillah it's been easy actually. Except a few arguments with my family, but Inshallah one day they will understand
I'm going to wear hijab starting June 2020 or 1st July 2020. It is a nerve breaking decision but I feel like I need it as a reminder for myself apart from other main reasons. I do feel insecure because my job might be at the stake for that but InshaAllah, there will be another door/offer opens if one door/offer closes. After all, in this world, the tests are higher especially when you are trying to follow the light. However, InshaAllah, Allah will make it easier and help me through out my journey.
al-salam alaykum. its all worth it! i know my words probably dont mean anything to you but dont be scared. you can start wearing it on and off during ramadan! Allah swt will be happy with you either way, if you start wearing it later or earlier, but he's going to appreciate it so much more during ramadan.
@@dyingisurfavfashion Walaikummussalam. Yes, I do hope Allah is happy with me finally taking the bold step to wear hijab despite my mum's family are mostly Kristian and my workplace are Kristian based school. No, it means so much to me that a person is reaching out to me especially in this well RUclips comment section where there's thousands of comments. Thanks sister. I am trying not to get scared by it and I want to show that hijabis are the same like any other normal people. I do hope more good attributes comes to me simce hijab is the best reminder about my deen.
no one: my hijab: *struggling to stay on* also I felt the need to tell you all my emotional hijab story that no one asked for One morning I woke up at 4 am and decided to do it and it has been a week since then
shouldn't we as society lern boys to not feel entiteled to aproch women ? isn't that better then making woemn coverup ? also i'm a born muslim ( asking this to undrestand not to attack islam) but the reason why i think we should learn boys how to treat women and not to aproch them just cuz she's goodlooking is cuz wearing hijab didn't stop them here in my contry so it's not a solution as much as you make it sound also it has created so muuuuuuuuch bad ideologies such as blaming rap victims so on and so on ? whene if we just raised out boys to not aproach women it would forever change the world
Wow I can’t believe that’s a legitimate thing in Europe! In Australia if someone fired you because of hijab then you would be able to sue them! Amazing advice though sis, thanks so much for your comment!!! 💗💗💗
I know .... They say it's not discrimination but being "equal" LOL, however it opens back door to discrimination.... www.standard.co.uk/news/world/european-court-of-justice-rules-employers-can-ban-women-from-wearing-headscarves-a3489126.html
I converted a lil over a year ago and I finally told my mum about a week ago. It’s sad to say my iman has been really low for a while. I had fallen in love with niqaab and being covered when I first converted, but since I had yet to tell anyone I never put it on. In fact I have hid my faith and it’s had horrible effects on my iman. But I have been wanting to get married and start a life with someone, and I want to do that with someone who shares my faith. But I also want them to be good. And I remember reading somewhere Allah swt will only give a good Muslim partner to someone who is also a good Muslim. And to me that means wearing hijab and maintaining the prayers as best I can. Inshallah, Allah swt will place someone suitable for me in my life. After telling my mum, I went and bought a good selection of scarves and have been trying to figure out how to wear them in a way that I’d feel comfortable leaving the house in. And it’s so hard. For so long I hid my faith until it became so little there was almost nothing to hide. And I’m trying to build it up again. One of the reasons why we are to wear the hijab is to be recognized as Muslim women, of someone of faith. So I’ve had this real disconnect lately with my iman being so low. And suddenly having to show the world that yes I’m Muslim. It’s honestly kind of scary. I already feel so alone, what will happen when I put it on? I know my concerns are connected to the dunya and I should worry about the afterlife not the opinions of everyone. Thank you for this encouraging video. It’s lessened my burden some. Jazaakallahukhair.
assalamu alaykum dear sister. i hope your reading this even though you postet your comment a while ago. Just wanted to let you know that i feel you 100%. I'm at a point of my life where I -again- chose Islam and chose to learn and be a good muslim. But i'm not ready yet to show it the non-muslim world and my family, who knows im muslim but its always like the elefant in the room no one talks about. ... Has anything changed since your comment? How are you? Did you put on Hijab? lots of love, an unknown but caring sister from Germany (reverted 2 years ago)
May Allah SWT keep your faith firm. Allah SWT says in the Quran " Those who strive in our way, we will guide them to our paths". May Allah bless you always. Ameen
Hey there, just wanted to share my niqab story which was so unplanned. We had a niqab at home, which mom had bought with the intention of wearing it, but i ended up wearing it 😅 I had been following a lot of niqabis on social media, and started loving the idea of wearing the niqab. But didn't have the courage, i am so sensitive and aware of everyone's opinion, especially my friends, so i just put the niqab away and went on with my life. However one of my Buddhist friends questioned me on the difference between the niqab and burqa. I had no idea, so i googled it, and sent her that the niqab has an eye opening, and burqa is full coverage. Then i remembered that i had a niqab, so i sent her a pic of me wearing it. She literally asked me when I'd start wearing it? And i was so shocked I asked her, whether she'd see me differently, She proceeded to send me a huge text on how that would not affect our friendship whatsoever and to go ahead. So I wore it the next day for uni classes, everyone was shocked, but not belittling Alhamdulillah. They were inquisitive, coz I only wore hijab the day prior. They wanted to know why I changed overnight literally. Eventhough it was something I wanted to do for a long time. Alhamdulillah Allah made it easy for me, no one judged me or rejected me, i was so happy and feeling over the moon! From then, it has been one year, and I'm loving it most of the time, sometimes i do feel like removing it in front of cousins who aren't mahram, but I don't and remember the reason I wore it. The hard part was dealing with my relatives, they laugh and mock me at times, we are all Muslim from birth btw, which is why I never understand why they behave in that manner. I dread visiting their place, and I should mentally prepare myself for their comments, but Alhamdulillah I've gotten used to it. And I'm glad I've got an understanding family and friends! Moral of the story : just go for it! With the right intention it will be easy for you guys insha Allah! Btw I also prayed two rakah before going for uni classes wearing niqab for the first time, asking Allah to make me consistent with my good deeds! Hope this inspired someone ❤️
Subhanallah I LOVE this story!!! Alhumdulilah that you have supportive friends like that & May Allah guide them to Islam. Honestly some people view it as extreme or “not part of Islam” and I really think that those people have lost the plot 😂💗
Samantha J Boyle Ameen! ikr, it makes me so sad whenever anyone says it's cultural, when there's evidence it isn't! Thanks for reading the whole thing btw ❤️😊
Dear u know that putting it on mean identify as Muslim as practice Muslim and from the story I can see u struggled a lot that what Jihad is so its mean if u still doing that its mean u r ghazi and I am proud of u dear sister ad as struggling brother ... Keep fighting with the nafas and plz remember me in your praying so I can be a ghazi like you with fighting my nafas... May Allah give u power to keep on going
Thanks for your video. I just started wearing hijab to my office yesterday! Mix of emotions, excite waking up, scared going out, nervous while out in the public and in the office. Happy and grateful Alhamdullilah when I arrived home I was thrilled when i look myself in the mirror that almost half of my scarf was falling of😅. Now looking at yt videos for motivations and tutorials. Thanks for sisters like you empowering Muslimah around the world ❤
2:27 !!! Your family isn't walking up to you and asking permission or worried about how they dress, so it should be likewise. Do what you do, let those who don't like it be motivation to keep going
I loved you're video Samantha. The title really hit home with me. I'm a young revert and my entire family hates hijab. My mother makes me feel horrible for it, my aunts and uncles don't like it my cousins just don't understand and my grandmother despises it. She makes me feel so worthless sometimes I just have to say my salah to calm myself and try not to argue. I'm not allowed to wear hijab when I'm alone or out with friends. Only with my mother and older Muslims in my community who bring me to halaqas. It really saddens my soul but I know someday it'll be my choice and I pray Allah (swt) rewards me, hijab is everything to me ❤️❤️ it makes me want to live and thrive. Unfortunately in my life it can sometimes be the one thing that makes me want to die because my family beats me down about it. I'm alone in hijab. But alhamdulillah I'm never alone with Allah.
Although I've been wearing my hijab so many years ago, your pieces of advice have boasted my confidence and increased my love for hijab ❤️baraka Allahu fiki you're a role model for Muslim girls please keep inspiring us because you have a very good way of discussing and convincing. And if you are about to add another hijab-related video please try to address the proper way of wearing it; the unfashionable one peace😘
This is inspiring thank you so much, I have been thinking about putting hijab on since freshman/sophomore year of high school and I am in my first semester of college now and I just want to put it on however I am not perfect in my character. I am not the most amazing daughter or sister. I have a lot to learn and don’t know too much. I am also worried about how my school mates who knew me in high school will think of me. How my neighbors and local people view me. But this helped me out so thank you a lot.
if u please Allah, u shouldnt worry about anyone else. he is the provider when it comes to career and he will put blessing in everything u will do. ppl who actually care bout u will stay with or without hijab.
My family is atheist and although my friends know, they don't know I have converted to Islam. Im depserate to wear hijab because its what I feel is the right level of modest to me. I'm still in school and nobody else wears a hijab. I don't know what to do. I feel I'm compromising on what I'm meant to do because of what others think
I went through the same thing almost and all I can say is try it. Just for one day go out and wear it to the mall, the shop, you will feel so much pride and once you do it once it would be so much easier to carry on. With regards to your family, make it seem like your conversion isn't a big deal and show them how Islam has changed you for the better, especially with treating your parents well. Inshallah God will help you but all you need to do is take that first step and go for it! Best of luck, keep strong sister 🌷
Thank you so much for this video Samantha! I'm already a Hijabi but I'll soon immigrate to a non Muslim country so I had a bunch of concerns similar to those mentioned in the video. I was contemplating on whether I should continue wearing it because I fear of being an outcast and getting judged. I already have a hard time making friends so I know it is going to be difficult but after I watched this video, I realized all that you said is the truth. There is no guarantee of how long you're going to live and I'd rather die being an outcast than die a person who lost her faith for worldly validation.. Thanks :)
Omg that’s my worry as well.. I want to study abroad in Iceland and ik that people will be Christian and stuff and it’s scary to feel like you’ll be an outcast
I’m honestly want to wear hijab and become a lawyer but my older sister told me that some lawyers aren’t permitted to wear hijabs and I keep hearing and seeing videos of hijabis being forced to take off their hijabs in public at airport security. Inshallah I overcome those fears and learn how to be brave to wear the hijab by listening to your tips ya rab 🤲
im 20 years old, living in Palestine, married and have a 1 year old baby. everytime anyone asked me about me putting the hijab on one day I would always tell them inshallah, but it wouldn't mean anything. I never thought that I would want to wear hijab until I was significantly older. subhnallah, I've been thinking of doing it a lot lately and with the month of ramadan, I feel I've grown closer to Allah and my dean. Im consistent with my prayers, I read my Quran more often and I fast hamdillah. I really want to get ready this eid and just wear a hijab. I'm very scared but excited at the same time. my husband and father support me 100%. I live with my in-laws and they all wear hijab. however, my mom and my younger sisters don't even though they are muslim and they pray and fast and do just as much as I do, they dont wear hijab, and they dont live with me here in Palestine. I'm scared of being the one who stands out in my family. but after watching this video, its a good thing. wearing the hijab is a good thing, and maybe if I start wearing it will inspire my mom and sisters to become closer to god and wear hijab too. I think I'm finally at the point in my life where this is something I want and something I decided on my own without pressure from anyone. thank u for the video! inshallah this eid I will surprise everyone with a hijab, and its scary but a good kind of scary, this is gonna change a lot of things and its going to take some time to get used to it but I'm so happy and excited!
This was super helpful and I’m so glad I was able to hear this message, I’m currently struggling myself as a revert to put hijab. But inshaallah I know I’ll get it soon.
ik this is a late comment, but you arent wearing the hijab for your teachers, you are wearing for Allah, and whoever says something about it, just tell yourself that you will heavily be rewarded by god:) and btw there at almost 2 billion people in this world supporting you
thank you so much for this video i’m 13 and i want to wear the hijab so bad but i’m so nervous. i want to wait until i feel like i’m ready to wear it because i don’t want to take it off. inshallah soon i wear it soon for allah and not for people
Needed this more than anything today. It is Ramadan and I am planning on putting hijab on on Eid. I have so many questions, fears, and concerns but I need to just shut it all out and think about the reason why I am doing this, I need to just do it and not think about anyone or anything else.
The comments and video are so relatable and make me feel happy. When you wear hijab for the sole purpose of pleasing Allah, everything else seems so minor! I recently started wearing it and I have to admit the first day, I was nervous! But I have not regretted wearing it for a second. It keeps me God conscious and honestly once you do it, you wont even care about what other people think. May Allah guide us all Ameen
I am not in a safe place to wear one sadly. My dad probably wouldn’t mind but the people I know around me are very hateful. I have been told multiple times that if I “ start dressing like a Muslim” they will hurt me. I plan on wearing one when I leave to go to college and am out of this area.
I'm planning to wear (sins 10 I'm 14) hijab next year InshAllah, so this year I can change my clothes to more modest ones. (lol my whole life I've always been wearing modest clothes, why? family is muslim so it's normal, so it no big deal for me, I'm also training myself psychologically, cause I'm a bit of susceptible person. Telling myself that I'm going to wear it just for Allah) I cant wait, I have already weared hijab for salat but never outside update: it's been 3 4 months since i started wearing hijab!!!
I so much needed this and literally i will pose any other video as soon as am alerted that you have put out content. I connect with you and you engage me with your humility. Thanks, may Allah reward you for encouraging the shy,anxious and as well other levels of challenge about islam.
Oh you don't know, i made dua somethings and Allah is answering me through you and another person. Out of nowhere Alhamudulillah i land to your channel!!💕
Thank you for this video sister- I am in exactly this predicament or when to wear hijab etc, this has helped a lot. May Allah give you reward for making this video inshAllah
im 16 i was just forced to wear a hijab by my parents and im trying to get used to everything with it, i dont want to disrespect it by taking it off but at the same time alot of people have been looking at me differently and havent been able to make many friends. I want to stay towards my deen.
I'm 20 my parents never forced me to wear a hijab I started wearing it recently in the 5 SEM of my college I had a lot of things going in my mind what will people think,what will my friends think ? There will be people who will put you in an awkward situation by giving you strange glares but remember it you're doing this for Allah SWT .Stay strong on your Deen because this dunya is just temporary .
As-salamu Alaykum Sister!!! Thank you, thank you and thank you again...your videos help clear the path to get closer to Allah...I'm a revert as well and from time to time I need a little pick-me-up to stop listening to the "whispers" and contiue seeking knowledge...your advice is encouraging and motivational ...God bless and Enjoy!!!
Jazak Allah Khair sister ❤️ Love you for the sake of Allah I needed to hear these words today Subhan Allah How He directs us to what would benefit us! May Allah make the hijab easy for us
1st question and i'm already relating lol I put hijab on like 2 weeks ago and like you said my family kinda accepts that im a muslim(note they dont constantly yell at me anymore that i'm getting manipulated but still hate it) but as my mom figured I wear hijab in school she got sooo upset,she literally thinks I will pack my stuff and go to afghanistan or something,I literally have no clue what to expect from them,I don't even talk to my dad because he's so hatefull and literally told me I can't pray in the house and he doesn't even live there o.O No idea really how to make them understand,it's hurting me so badly because my mom told me they're open minded but as soon as i get serious about it they're like nah not my daughter nope not happening ur not muslim ugh It's especially hard because I don't really know any other muslims in my country(there's very few) and so I can't really seek for support from them. I really wanna visit a masjid(my country is building one!!!) though but my mom will probably never allow me to go :( I even took shahada alone and told some muslims on net uhh Also same thinking on job,I just had interview and i was struggling to decide whether to wear hijab or not because it might afftect their descision but then i thought if they don't accept me cus im muslim then i dont even want to work there :) (i didn't get the job for other reasons tho) Also only mom knows about that so I'm really worried what everyone else will say when they know O.O especially grandparents who don't even know i'm muslim
It has been 2 years since you wrote this comment about your situation. I hope everything turned out good for you. Remember that it is a test from Allah. You will be rewarded for your endurance & patience, Leona. It's already difficult when the people outside hate on you for being Muslim, but having to experience the same reaction in your own home, by your own family must be tougher. Seek knowledge to strengthen your relationship with Allah, learn about Tawheed even if you think you already know it, learn 'Aqidah, pray on time & make lots of Du'a to Allah to guide you and your family & keep you steadfast on the Truth. Is the Masjid already finished? Have you found some practicing Muslim sisters to keep in touch with, to socialize and motivate each other? May Allah guide us & forgive our sins & admit us into Jannatul-Firdaus.
@@hopefulthatthingswillgetbetter Alhamdoulilah! I have forgotten how many things happened back then. Thank you so much for your beautiful comment. I'm doing so much better now. I moved away to a different country to marry (guess they were right about this one haha) but this ended up improving my relationship with both of my parents. I really love them both and I wish they accept islam one day as well. They aren't bad people, they just don't try to understand things. I also found a muslim friend back then and she helped so much! So glad to have her. Really miss all of them but I'm so thankful to Allah he gave me everything. I'll never be able to understand His mysterious ways.
Leona Leona So glad to hear things changed for the better! Allahumma barik! May Allah bless you marriage & give you righteous offspring. May Allah guide your family & put love in their hearts for Islam. Effort has been made to make Islam look bad & maybe your parents have been influenced by that. Try to have the best manners to proof them wrong & portray the way Islam truly is to the best of your ability, sister. You don't even know how happy I'm hearing that you're fine & didn't loose your Deen because of the pressure. May Allah give you more! ❤️
I just wanna say how grateful I am for you and your videos ❤️❤️. Today is my first day wearing hijab (officially!) and your advice was the final push I needed to wear it today :) Barak allahu feek💘
One of the main reasons I’m scared of starting to wear a hijab is that I don’t imagine myself with a hijab in the future is that weird? I’m scared that I’ll end up stop wearing a hijab
My friend told me that the hijab wasn’t “miah” like they blatantly said it wasn’t me and I don’t understand that. It’s just unsupportive I supported and discouraging.
Honestly I'm already wearing it by now it's been since ramadan and I also quit couple of haram things and to be honest I'm so glad. The reason I wanted to watch your vid was to learn your side of thje story and maybe better help myself explain why I wear it I tend to have difficulty communicating the things I don't quite know how to explain and although I'm become to be better on understanding so I don't feel like a fool lol I know I'm not but it's hard because I'm the only one in my family that is a Muslim.. Revert that is, so thank you for sharing your piece of your story you literally helped me be able to better communicate my thoughts. I love it Alhamdulillah may Allah bless n' may he rank you higher MASHALLAH!! Please comment if you can relate.
Do you have poblems with islamophobia in Australia? I don't plan to wear the hijab, but islamophobia is my main concern on this issue. Because in here in Europe a lot of people are islamophobs. I hear from a lot of hijabis that they have to deal with daily insults and sometimes attacks. I feel like that the hijab would lost it purpose in such situations, because it would have exactly the opposite effect. I actually never saw a hijabi outside alone where I live, when it was dark. How would you deal with such stuff? Btw great video you are inspering many girls to wear the hijab :) May Allah reward you.
I was born muslim and i'm wearing hijab for a long time now, i'm leaving in a muslim country but you still give me such an inspiration girl!! You make me want to be a better muslimah.. And i'm really doing big efforts el hamdoulillah Love you sooo much
I have a question for you please when u talked about not wearing clothes like the non believers is it not okay to weat those large pants that look like skirts ? And thanks for ur amazing videos ❤
The first time I wore the hijab outside my mum and my younger sister went into the shop and I sat outside on a bench and a lady walked passed me and said OMG a scarf 😱 and she walked away whilst staring at me and for some reason I felt embarrassed
Esselamu alejkum 🥰 I watched this video two days ago and today I have decided to put my hijab on. It was a huge push for me. May Allah swt reward you for this video. I'm now a part of hijabii squaad 🥰🥰🥰
I have been wearing hijab behind my dads back as i was worried he was against it, based on previous comments. I told him i have been wearing it and he thinks i jumped into it too fast. How can i get over the guilt i feel for upsetting him so much and the urge and temptation to take hijab off as to not upset him
I want to wear one to school because i learned today u need to wear hijab after somethings happen and im scared cause somepll will pull the hijab and make fun of me
Subanhallah Sam!! You’ve really inspired me to get closer to Allah swt. Since watching your videos I’ve felt an immense turn around in my life and I’ve started practicing more. I was born Muslim alhumdulillah and have never felt closer to Allah swt as I do now. Thank you.
Wow MashAllah! Thanks for making this video. You have no idea how much this video will help alot of people including hijabis and no hijabis... May Allah reward you in this dunya and akhira. Ameen.
Assalamualiqum sister I can't stop watching your videos I'm falling in love with every word you say you are an inspiration by the way I live in Australia too just started wearing hijab a year ago born and brought up Muslim people ask random questions about hijab like ah don't you feel hot in this all the time
Im 12 and I started wearing the hijab today and I’m so excited I myself was scared to to think about what ppl would say and that I wont get a proper job since Islamphobia sadly still is a thing but now that I realized that Allah is always by my side and he In Sha Allah make it easier for me. Allah knows what „he’s“ (I’m not sure how to write this sentences without the „he“ so please educate me if I’m wrong) doing so I shouldn’t be scared(: (I’m 12 and I’m still learning proper grammar)
i'm starting irl school next month and im scared, but i remember i had a dream and i was a hijabi, i remember i was the happiest and felt the most connected to Allah. I'll be wearing it from now on inshallah
Besides theological internal conflict, I suspect most people don't want to sweat their brains out under hijab in the summer. Do I have the item for you! Off we go to Ebay and get us some stretch lace undercaps in lots of colors! I kid you not, last year I tried one under chiffon and, in 105° heat, never cracked a sweat! Good looking and cheap enough to grab a handful! Problem solved! No swimming pool required!
I converted to Islam 2 years ago my family is non Muslim... I am struggling to put hijab on I have decided now that I’ll put it InshAllah but scared of telling my family about converting... please suggest
Mashallah you're such an amazing inspiration sis!! I really want to start wearing hijab but I'm nervous ahh. Nonnetheless, Inshallah when school starts so will I 🥺💕💕
So I don't judge ppl externally but I judge them internally at times and I feel angry with myself for having bad thoughts about them. How do I change the way I see things or think about them?
What I have learned is that your first thoughts are what you've been taught to think, and your next thoughts are what you actually think. Don't put so much pressure on your thoughts. It is your actions that matter.
MaShàAllah sister, I’m so proud of you and your faith and your mind, you are so beautiful and blessed to have a great mind and the way you think, may Almighty reward you with the highest Jennah with our beloved profit Sah
My family says they hate me being Muslim and hate hijab they say this every weekend. They say they will never accept me being Muslim . They say am lonely and have a few friends that's why am Muslim.
Asalam o Alikum just want to say its your choice to wear hijab for the sake of Allah and if someone says negative about it just ignore it you look great in Hijab and MashaAllah you are a very strong person. Stay bless
I used to wear hijab for 11 years. In the last 3 , 4 years it begun to gave me headaches. After I wore the hijab for 2 or 3 hours, after that my headache begun and did not stop while I had the hijab on. I have thought at this last 2 years and, for the last 2 months, I took it off. But I do not feel comfortable as I thought. It did not gave me the comfort I thought it would be. I must mention that I live in a muslim country, so hijab is not a problem here. But my parents live in a non muslim country, and even they are muslims, they did not like the idea that I wore hijab. Obviously, they were very happy when I told them that I took it off. I wish I have not told them until I was totally decided. So, I took the hijab before I was ready for this, and now I regret. 11 years hijab, 2 months without, now again with hijab, Unfortunatelly I am thinking that people will say what is happening to me. I am lucky because my husband says is my decision, he does not want to influence me, because he wants me to decide what is better for me. What advice can you give me. Thank you.
No one let anyone think or u yourself that u look uglier with hijab cz u don't u look as beautiful as a sister look beautiful to a brother .... U r best sister I am praying for u may Allah keep you or right path so plz remember me in your prays too
I was afraid to wear Hijab...but now I am just going to do it...for a month straight I’ve been seeing dreams of wearing hijab, laughing and enjoying and I am not religious but since those dreams I started praying...and my heart just yearned for hijab...♥️ inshallah I am gonna wear it.
Edit; Alhemdurallah I've been wear for hijab for 4 months now!😘
Happy for you sister ❤🙏🏻 My Allah bless you :")
Sabinanin Mutfagi mashallah so proud of you sister ❤️🙌🏼
MashAllah
Mashallah keep it up sister❤️
MASALLAH IM DO HAPPY
I just ordered a hijab and burka. I am a Christian and felt called by God to do this. Thank you for this video!

Hi there!
Reading your message put a big smile on my face.
It reminded me 2 verses from the Quran:
Holy Qur’an, al-Anfal 24: “O you who believe! Respond to God and to the Messenger when the Messenger calls you (in the Name of God) to that which gives you life, and know well that surely God "intervenes" between a person and his heart (to cause his heart to swerve); and that He it is to Whom you will be gathered.”
Holy Qur’an, al-An’am 125: So whoever Allah wants to guide - He expands his breast to [contain] Islam
It seems like Allah is guiding your heart!

@@hannahlights2916 thank you for sharing that information. I have been wearing a niqab out to the stores since March of this year. I have been getting a lot of looks at first, then when COVID-19 was in full force people were more at ease. I even had a lady ask me where I got mine from. I am going to be wearing this niqab for a while. I am not completely sure why women wear it, but I know in biblical times women were covered up. Thanks for responding.
@@toiy6556 In biblical times women were covered up. Why? Maybe cultural, maybe spiritual. It is something I am looking into though.
wearing hijab to please allah not to please people and allah will make it easy for you.
This is true Alhamdulillah!!
YASS
people's opinion doesn't matter.
I wanna wear it at 15 (next year)
Assalam akaikum sister!
i started wearing hijab almoat 5 years ago... now im 18 😊
And soon i will wear niqab. in sha allah.. ❤
Hamdhana Ali I also started to wear the hijab almost 5 years ago :')
Mashallah sis!!! May Allah make it easy for you x
+Nana Mint Maash'Allah..❤
Niqab is not obligatory
Niqab isn't obligatory, it's in the Qur'an
I'm a brand new revert, like 3 weeks ago. And I am still worried about wearing hijab. I have bought a couple and wear them when praying but I want to take the next step and wear it full time. Please make Dua that I will have the strength. Insha Allah
Inshallah! I’m want to wear hijab as well I got a collection now and just looking at them wanting to wear it!! Make dua for each other ❤️😁👍
@@jess_hang_out Here's my revert story I'm starting to wear hijab. I'll make Dua for you! ruclips.net/video/5yEm-Xe5b-Q/видео.html
May Allah give you the strength and reward you for all your efforts ❤
How is it going? :D
Ameen
i made up my mind about 2 hrs ago that , today was the day to wear the hijab.. And i come across this video and i am in tears because your story and your advice hits home.. thank you for sharing ..
Subhanallah. Your faith are so strong. It motivate others toward Islam. May Allah rewards you in this world and in Jannah.
May Allah allow me to always do that
I was born as Muslim. At the age of 62 I only help one person to revert to Islam. But you only after a few years revert to Islam you already take a shahadah of one lady. I envy your success. Subhanallah.

A khimar in arabic is a covering. Like a covering for the floor, table, window. It’s a physical covering of something. The aya says to strike a covering over their pockets. The term pockets is used because it has a physical and psychological meaning. God didn’t use the term breast or chest deliberately.
The Koran never talked specifically about hair covering. That’s what we humans made it.
The interpretations nowadays about the Koran, and not only about the hijab, are really worrying.
The hijab has been materialised. The Koran has been materialised. This is really concerning. I really hope muslim women start to open this discussion, because after all, they are wearing the symbol of the materialised Islam. It’s time to go back to the essence of Islam, and to fulfil our journey in this world as was asked by God, not by sheiks that are imposing interpretations that are dividing us, and are leading is to an earthly existing.
@@saidosman3957 one person is huge brother.
I hate when people tell me to take my HIJAB off, 🙄No i'm not taking my CROWN off 😇
YASSS QUEEEN! GUURRL NEVER TAKE IT OFF✨✨✨
you're gorgeousss
yes confident queen you tell em
U can start wearing it part time
Then slowly u will eventually in sha Allah feel comfortable to wear it full time you'll see
You will feel so much closer to Allah swt that peoples comments stares comments etc will literally be a blurr. Yeah ppl do say stuff at th start. But TRUST ME if u dont giv them reaction, they will get bored and go pik on someone else more "interesting" lol
I went through it when i first started covering head to toe
Going part time is a really good start
All th best girls ♡♡♡
Mrs Muslimah Yes, wearing part-time is what I’m doing right now to try and build my confidence in this. Thank you so much. 🙏🏼
Layla Larson Yayy Alhamdulilah
You are most welcome my sister ♡
Mrs Muslimah InshaAllah
Omg the being hot, THE FEELS!!! I have chronic illnesses that make being hot VERY dangerous for me. The biggest advice is wearing the right fabrics! Don’t wear a thick cotton scarf if it’s super hot out. Wear a thin chiffon or breathable cotton or jersey scarf. It definitely helps keeping cool easier. Or if you know it’s going to be a particularly hot day, stick your scarf in the freezer the night before😂😂😂 seriously! And definitely probably not smart to wear a volumizer or underscarf. Just gotta find what works for you. I’ve even sat in the backyard for a few minutes with a few different styles or layers to see how each fabric would act.
I feel so much prettier without it and everytime I have a slight intention to wear it, I see people on social media/public places that look so cuutee with beautiful hair and short dresses etc.😭 I’m so worried and its so hard to fight shaiton’s whispers
I advise you to stop following immodest people on social media and start following lots of hijabis, it will help you inchaAllah❤️
I have the same exact problem pls tell me if you solved yours:(?
That is worldly beauty my dear. If you really love those dresses and hair for YOURSELF. you can just dress like that at home with your mehrams. Please know that this beauty is given to you by Allah and then it's Allah's command for you to cover it. It's a test for you if you love Allah more or this worldly beauty more. The beauty standard is created by humans. But the beauty standard of Allah is that you cover it but also you can enjoy your hair and beautiful ( modest) dresses with your husband, father, children and brothers and other women. The ones that really matter. May Allah make it easy for you. Ameen
I have the same exact problei am 12 yr old and every time i even think of wearing the hijab i see people on social media with there hair and there short clothes and just feel so like what will I do if i wear what will people say
I'm a brand new revert and I want to wear hijab so bad... you've given me courage. Thank you!
May Allah make it easy for you sister to wear the Hijab.
Ameen.
Thank you sister for all your replies
I give you 100/100
You are absolutely right in every answer
You are so brave , so confident, so true
My Allah bless you and guide you always
Sam Salam Ameen
Alhumdulilah when your first hijab video came out a few weeks ago I was not a hijabi but now I am! 😊 I've been wanting to wear it for years now but was too scared to ALHUMDULILAH I made dua and got the courage to do it. The way I thought of it was that the people that youbare scared arw going to judge you won't be there with you in your grave THEY won't have to answer to Allah YOU will. Also Samantha may Allah bless you, you have really inspired/motivated me to read more into my religion for what it actually is. I make dua for you and your mom, may Allah guide her :) 💓
YOU MAKE MY HEART HAPPY!! Thank you so much 😊💗
Awww thank you so much! =)

subhanallah this Video came at the right moment 🙌🏼
today i tried it ✨
Ahhhh mashallah 💗💗
Samantha J Boyle
today was my first step ..
But Honestly im little excited and scarred when im going to uni with it 🙈
but inshallah he will give me strength!
I know I’m late but this makes me so happy for you. Masha Allah. ❤️
I'm a new revert and the closest I got to wearing a hijab in public is this profile picture, I am excited of wearing one everyday especially at college, and I'm so nervous but I know that my friends' and classmates' reactions will last for a few days or weeks but they'll get used to it and over it after a while. The first day will be the toughest.
But the people who actually love me will accept my decision. If my hijab will push people away, maybe they're not exactly the right type of people to have around me.
Thank you for the motivation sister ❤️
@@translationmlt2128 haha i actually started wearing the hijab shortly after I posted this comment. Aand Alhamdulillah it's been easy actually. Except a few arguments with my family, but Inshallah one day they will understand
@@Miriam-gi4rs But Sister, just asking a question, is it you on the profile pic or is it someone else?
I'm going to wear hijab starting June 2020 or 1st July 2020. It is a nerve breaking decision but I feel like I need it as a reminder for myself apart from other main reasons.
I do feel insecure because my job might be at the stake for that but InshaAllah, there will be another door/offer opens if one door/offer closes.
After all, in this world, the tests are higher especially when you are trying to follow the light. However, InshaAllah, Allah will make it easier and help me through out my journey.
al-salam alaykum. its all worth it! i know my words probably dont mean anything to you but dont be scared. you can start wearing it on and off during ramadan! Allah swt will be happy with you either way, if you start wearing it later or earlier, but he's going to appreciate it so much more during ramadan.
Inshallah i will start in Ramadan
@@dyingisurfavfashion Walaikummussalam. Yes, I do hope Allah is happy with me finally taking the bold step to wear hijab despite my mum's family are mostly Kristian and my workplace are Kristian based school. No, it means so much to me that a person is reaching out to me especially in this well RUclips comment section where there's thousands of comments. Thanks sister. I am trying not to get scared by it and I want to show that hijabis are the same like any other normal people. I do hope more good attributes comes to me simce hijab is the best reminder about my deen.
@@adelante3938 Alhamdullillah sister and InshaAllah. May Allah makes it easier for us all to go through the test that comes with it.
Did you start wearing the hijab? I
no one:
my hijab: *struggling to stay on*
also I felt the need to tell you all my emotional hijab story that no one asked for
One morning I woke up at 4 am and decided to do it and it has been a week since then
May Allah keep you steadfast & increase you in knowledge and strengthen your Iman. ❤️
@@hopefulthatthingswillgetbetter thank you❤️ you too!
I needed this video today.
💗💗💗 Alhumdulilah be grateful to Allah for it then because I was planning on posting it next week xx
A revert who I talked to said she's happier wearing the hijab after 4 years after reverting she gets less guys approaching her and asking her out?
That’s true
Wolverine Scratch yes it's true never had any guy ask me out only one did I said bye laughing at him.
Thal Lu you shouldn't have laughed.
shouldn't we as society lern boys to not feel entiteled to aproch women ? isn't that better then making woemn coverup ? also i'm a born muslim ( asking this to undrestand not to attack islam) but the reason why i think we should learn boys how to treat women and not to aproch them just cuz she's goodlooking is cuz wearing hijab didn't stop them here in my contry so it's not a solution as much as you make it sound also it has created so muuuuuuuuch bad ideologies such as blaming rap victims so on and so on ? whene if we just raised out boys to not aproach women it would forever change the world
I feel more comfortable in a hijab, but maybe it’s just me.
Excellent video Sam!
Wow I can’t believe that’s a legitimate thing in Europe! In Australia if someone fired you because of hijab then you would be able to sue them! Amazing advice though sis, thanks so much for your comment!!! 💗💗💗
I know .... They say it's not discrimination but being "equal" LOL, however it opens back door to discrimination....
www.standard.co.uk/news/world/european-court-of-justice-rules-employers-can-ban-women-from-wearing-headscarves-a3489126.html
That's legal?? WHAT??
Not true at all At least not in the UK The employer would get sued Not sure where you got all this information from?
This is what the world needs to hear
I converted a lil over a year ago and I finally told my mum about a week ago. It’s sad to say my iman has been really low for a while. I had fallen in love with niqaab and being covered when I first converted, but since I had yet to tell anyone I never put it on. In fact I have hid my faith and it’s had horrible effects on my iman. But I have been wanting to get married and start a life with someone, and I want to do that with someone who shares my faith. But I also want them to be good. And I remember reading somewhere Allah swt will only give a good Muslim partner to someone who is also a good Muslim. And to me that means wearing hijab and maintaining the prayers as best I can. Inshallah, Allah swt will place someone suitable for me in my life. After telling my mum, I went and bought a good selection of scarves and have been trying to figure out how to wear them in a way that I’d feel comfortable leaving the house in. And it’s so hard. For so long I hid my faith until it became so little there was almost nothing to hide. And I’m trying to build it up again. One of the reasons why we are to wear the hijab is to be recognized as Muslim women, of someone of faith. So I’ve had this real disconnect lately with my iman being so low. And suddenly having to show the world that yes I’m Muslim. It’s honestly kind of scary. I already feel so alone, what will happen when I put it on? I know my concerns are connected to the dunya and I should worry about the afterlife not the opinions of everyone. Thank you for this encouraging video. It’s lessened my burden some. Jazaakallahukhair.
assalamu alaykum dear sister.
i hope your reading this even though you postet your comment a while ago. Just wanted to let you know that i feel you 100%. I'm at a point of my life where I -again- chose Islam and chose to learn and be a good muslim. But i'm not ready yet to show it the non-muslim world and my family, who knows im muslim but its always like the elefant in the room no one talks about. ... Has anything changed since your comment? How are you? Did you put on Hijab?
lots of love, an unknown but caring sister from Germany (reverted 2 years ago)
May Allah SWT keep your faith firm. Allah SWT says in the Quran " Those who strive in our way, we will guide them to our paths". May Allah bless you always. Ameen
Hey there, just wanted to share my niqab story which was so unplanned.
We had a niqab at home, which mom had bought with the intention of wearing it, but i ended up wearing it 😅
I had been following a lot of niqabis on social media, and started loving the idea of wearing the niqab. But didn't have the courage, i am so sensitive and aware of everyone's opinion, especially my friends, so i just put the niqab away and went on with my life.
However one of my Buddhist friends questioned me on the difference between the niqab and burqa. I had no idea, so i googled it, and sent her that the niqab has an eye opening, and burqa is full coverage.
Then i remembered that i had a niqab, so i sent her a pic of me wearing it.
She literally asked me when I'd start wearing it? And i was so shocked I asked her, whether she'd see me differently,
She proceeded to send me a huge text on how that would not affect our friendship whatsoever and to go ahead.
So I wore it the next day for uni classes, everyone was shocked, but not belittling Alhamdulillah. They were inquisitive, coz I only wore hijab the day prior.
They wanted to know why I changed overnight literally. Eventhough it was something I wanted to do for a long time.
Alhamdulillah Allah made it easy for me, no one judged me or rejected me, i was so happy and feeling over the moon!
From then, it has been one year, and I'm loving it most of the time, sometimes i do feel like removing it in front of cousins who aren't mahram, but I don't and remember the reason I wore it.
The hard part was dealing with my relatives, they laugh and mock me at times, we are all Muslim from birth btw, which is why I never understand why they behave in that manner. I dread visiting their place, and I should mentally prepare myself for their comments, but Alhamdulillah I've gotten used to it. And I'm glad I've got an understanding family and friends!
Moral of the story : just go for it! With the right intention it will be easy for you guys insha Allah!
Btw I also prayed two rakah before going for uni classes wearing niqab for the first time, asking Allah to make me consistent with my good deeds!
Hope this inspired someone ❤️
Subhanallah I LOVE this story!!! Alhumdulilah that you have supportive friends like that & May Allah guide them to Islam. Honestly some people view it as extreme or “not part of Islam” and I really think that those people have lost the plot 😂💗
Samantha J Boyle Ameen! ikr, it makes me so sad whenever anyone says it's cultural, when there's evidence it isn't!
Thanks for reading the whole thing btw ❤️😊
Dear u know that putting it on mean identify as Muslim as practice Muslim and from the story I can see u struggled a lot that what Jihad is so its mean if u still doing that its mean u r ghazi and I am proud of u dear sister ad as struggling brother ... Keep fighting with the nafas and plz remember me in your praying so I can be a ghazi like you with fighting my nafas... May Allah give u power to keep on going
Thanks for your video. I just started wearing hijab to my office yesterday! Mix of emotions, excite waking up, scared going out, nervous while out in the public and in the office. Happy and grateful Alhamdullilah when I arrived home I was thrilled when i look myself in the mirror that almost half of my scarf was falling of😅. Now looking at yt videos for motivations and tutorials. Thanks for sisters like you empowering Muslimah around the world ❤
2:27 !!! Your family isn't walking up to you and asking permission or worried about how they dress, so it should be likewise. Do what you do, let those who don't like it be motivation to keep going
your confident is amazing.
I loved you're video Samantha. The title really hit home with me. I'm a young revert and my entire family hates hijab. My mother makes me feel horrible for it, my aunts and uncles don't like it my cousins just don't understand and my grandmother despises it. She makes me feel so worthless sometimes I just have to say my salah to calm myself and try not to argue. I'm not allowed to wear hijab when I'm alone or out with friends. Only with my mother and older Muslims in my community who bring me to halaqas. It really saddens my soul but I know someday it'll be my choice and I pray Allah (swt) rewards me, hijab is everything to me ❤️❤️ it makes me want to live and thrive. Unfortunately in my life it can sometimes be the one thing that makes me want to die because my family beats me down about it. I'm alone in hijab. But alhamdulillah I'm never alone with Allah.
Have things improved for you since then?
Although I've been wearing my hijab so many years ago, your pieces of advice have boasted my confidence and increased my love for hijab ❤️baraka Allahu fiki you're a role model for Muslim girls please keep inspiring us because you have a very good way of discussing and convincing. And if you are about to add another hijab-related video please try to address the proper way of wearing it; the unfashionable one peace😘
Ahhhh thank you so much sis! Definitely planning on making a video like that! 💗
This is inspiring thank you so much, I have been thinking about putting hijab on since freshman/sophomore year of high school and I am in my first semester of college now and I just want to put it on however I am not perfect in my character. I am not the most amazing daughter or sister. I have a lot to learn and don’t know too much. I am also worried about how my school mates who knew me in high school will think of me. How my neighbors and local people view me. But this helped me out so thank you a lot.
if u please Allah, u shouldnt worry about anyone else. he is the provider when it comes to career and he will put blessing in everything u will do. ppl who actually care bout u will stay with or without hijab.
My family is atheist and although my friends know, they don't know I have converted to Islam. Im depserate to wear hijab because its what I feel is the right level of modest to me. I'm still in school and nobody else wears a hijab. I don't know what to do. I feel I'm compromising on what I'm meant to do because of what others think
I went through the same thing almost and all I can say is try it. Just for one day go out and wear it to the mall, the shop, you will feel so much pride and once you do it once it would be so much easier to carry on. With regards to your family, make it seem like your conversion isn't a big deal and show them how Islam has changed you for the better, especially with treating your parents well. Inshallah God will help you but all you need to do is take that first step and go for it! Best of luck, keep strong sister 🌷
Mashallah .. you just gave me the exact confidence i needed before putting hijab on💓 thanks a lot for this video
Thank you so much for this video Samantha! I'm already a Hijabi but I'll soon immigrate to a non Muslim country so I had a bunch of concerns similar to those mentioned in the video. I was contemplating on whether I should continue wearing it because I fear of being an outcast and getting judged. I already have a hard time making friends so I know it is going to be difficult but after I watched this video, I realized all that you said is the truth. There is no guarantee of how long you're going to live and I'd rather die being an outcast than die a person who lost her faith for worldly validation.. Thanks :)
Omg that’s my worry as well.. I want to study abroad in Iceland and ik that people will be Christian and stuff and it’s scary to feel like you’ll be an outcast
I’m honestly want to wear hijab and become a lawyer but my older sister told me that some lawyers aren’t permitted to wear hijabs and I keep hearing and seeing videos of hijabis being forced to take off their hijabs in public at airport security. Inshallah I overcome those fears and learn how to be brave to wear the hijab by listening to your tips ya rab 🤲
Listening to this just to boost my confidence before wearing hijab to work first time 💜 may Allah reward you for you strong words of encouragement 😊
im 20 years old, living in Palestine, married and have a 1 year old baby. everytime anyone asked me about me putting the hijab on one day I would always tell them inshallah, but it wouldn't mean anything. I never thought that I would want to wear hijab until I was significantly older. subhnallah, I've been thinking of doing it a lot lately and with the month of ramadan, I feel I've grown closer to Allah and my dean. Im consistent with my prayers, I read my Quran more often and I fast hamdillah. I really want to get ready this eid and just wear a hijab. I'm very scared but excited at the same time. my husband and father support me 100%. I live with my in-laws and they all wear hijab. however, my mom and my younger sisters don't even though they are muslim and they pray and fast and do just as much as I do, they dont wear hijab, and they dont live with me here in Palestine. I'm scared of being the one who stands out in my family. but after watching this video, its a good thing. wearing the hijab is a good thing, and maybe if I start wearing it will inspire my mom and sisters to become closer to god and wear hijab too. I think I'm finally at the point in my life where this is something I want and something I decided on my own without pressure from anyone. thank u for the video! inshallah this eid I will surprise everyone with a hijab, and its scary but a good kind of scary, this is gonna change a lot of things and its going to take some time to get used to it but I'm so happy and excited!
This was super helpful and I’m so glad I was able to hear this message, I’m currently struggling myself as a revert to put hijab. But inshaallah I know I’ll get it soon.
Watching your channel grow makes me so happy ❤❤
I am scared about what my teachers will say when I where hijab which will be at August what do you think I should do. Plz answer me
ik this is a late comment, but you arent wearing the hijab for your teachers, you are wearing for Allah, and whoever says something about it, just tell yourself that you will heavily be rewarded by god:) and btw there at almost 2 billion people in this world supporting you
If they say anything just ignore them. Just keep in mind you are doing it for Allah. Inshallah everything will be okay ❤️
*first comment. Ma Shaa Allah our sweet sis* 🙋
I was terrified but I started wearing the hijab as week ago and it’s really hard but i’m glad i did it ❤️
thank you so much for this video i’m 13 and i want to wear the hijab so bad but i’m so nervous. i want to wait until i feel like i’m ready to wear it because i don’t want to take it off. inshallah soon i wear it soon for allah and not for people
I’m gonna wear a hijab tomorrow, I’m sooo nervous. Inshallah it will go as plan:).
Needed this more than anything today. It is Ramadan and I am planning on putting hijab on on Eid. I have so many questions, fears, and concerns but I need to just shut it all out and think about the reason why I am doing this, I need to just do it and not think about anyone or anything else.
I really wanna do it but I just can’t I’m not confident idk how to get confident
Yeah I understand what ur saying I said I’ll do it next year since I’ll be moving into high school idk tho
You are inspiring. Thank you for this Q&A
The comments and video are so relatable and make me feel happy. When you wear hijab for the sole purpose of pleasing Allah, everything else seems so minor! I recently started wearing it and I have to admit the first day, I was nervous! But I have not regretted wearing it for a second. It keeps me God conscious and honestly once you do it, you wont even care about what other people think. May Allah guide us all Ameen
I am not in a safe place to wear one sadly. My dad probably wouldn’t mind but the people I know around me are very hateful. I have been told multiple times that if I “ start dressing like a Muslim” they will hurt me. I plan on wearing one when I leave to go to college and am out of this area.
good luck to you sister
@@luminarymani thank you!! I only have two years left.
I'm planning to wear (sins 10 I'm 14) hijab next year InshAllah, so this year I can change my clothes to more modest ones. (lol my whole life I've always been wearing modest clothes, why? family is muslim so it's normal, so it no big deal for me, I'm also training myself psychologically, cause I'm a bit of susceptible person. Telling myself that I'm going to wear it just for Allah)
I cant wait, I have already weared hijab for salat but never outside

Nice advice for me also.always giving reason to not wearing hijab
Thank you for this video sister- I am in exactly this predicament or when to wear hijab etc, this has helped a lot. May Allah give you reward for making this video inshAllah
You are so strong may Allah bless you and guide the people who don't understand what Islam really is. Love and respect from Pakistan❤
This is a really old video, but I am trying to wear the hijab and this video was the push I needed to put it on. Shukran Ukhti!
watching whis the night before, InshaAllah❤ you made me feel more confident in my decision, may Allah bless you in both worlds😊
Thank you for the good advice! You make me sure to put my hijab on my 20s
im 16 i was just forced to wear a hijab by my parents and im trying to get used to everything with it, i dont want to disrespect it by taking it off but at the same time alot of people have been looking at me differently and havent been able to make many friends. I want to stay towards my deen.
I'm 20 my parents never forced me to wear a hijab I started wearing it recently in the 5 SEM of my college I had a lot of things going in my mind what will people think,what will my friends think ?
There will be people who will put you in an awkward situation by giving you strange glares but remember it you're doing this for Allah SWT .Stay strong on your Deen because this dunya is just temporary .
As-salamu Alaykum Sister!!! Thank you, thank you and thank you again...your videos help clear the path to get closer to Allah...I'm a revert as well and from time to time I need a little pick-me-up to stop listening to the "whispers" and contiue seeking knowledge...your advice is encouraging and motivational ...God bless and Enjoy!!!
WalaykumAsalam, ahhh Alhumdulilah my sis, I’m glad this helped you 💗
Jazak Allah Khair sister ❤️
Love you for the sake of Allah
I needed to hear these words today
Subhan Allah
How He directs us to what would benefit us!
May Allah make the hijab easy for us
1st question and i'm already relating lol I put hijab on like 2 weeks ago and like you said my family kinda accepts that im a muslim(note they dont constantly yell at me anymore that i'm getting manipulated but still hate it) but as my mom figured I wear hijab in school she got sooo upset,she literally thinks I will pack my stuff and go to afghanistan or something,I literally have no clue what to expect from them,I don't even talk to my dad because he's so hatefull and literally told me I can't pray in the house and he doesn't even live there o.O No idea really how to make them understand,it's hurting me so badly because my mom told me they're open minded but as soon as i get serious about it they're like nah not my daughter nope not happening ur not muslim ugh It's especially hard because I don't really know any other muslims in my country(there's very few) and so I can't really seek for support from them. I really wanna visit a masjid(my country is building one!!!) though but my mom will probably never allow me to go :( I even took shahada alone and told some muslims on net uhh Also same thinking on job,I just had interview and i was struggling to decide whether to wear hijab or not because it might afftect their descision but then i thought if they don't accept me cus im muslim then i dont even want to work there :) (i didn't get the job for other reasons tho) Also only mom knows about that so I'm really worried what everyone else will say when they know O.O especially grandparents who don't even know i'm muslim
It has been 2 years since you wrote this comment about your situation. I hope everything turned out good for you. Remember that it is a test from Allah. You will be rewarded for your endurance & patience, Leona. It's already difficult when the people outside hate on you for being Muslim, but having to experience the same reaction in your own home, by your own family must be tougher. Seek knowledge to strengthen your relationship with Allah, learn about Tawheed even if you think you already know it, learn 'Aqidah, pray on time & make lots of Du'a to Allah to guide you and your family & keep you steadfast on the Truth.
Is the Masjid already finished? Have you found some practicing Muslim sisters to keep in touch with, to socialize and motivate each other?
May Allah guide us & forgive our sins & admit us into Jannatul-Firdaus.
@@hopefulthatthingswillgetbetter Alhamdoulilah! I have forgotten how many things happened back then. Thank you so much for your beautiful comment. I'm doing so much better now. I moved away to a different country to marry (guess they were right about this one haha) but this ended up improving my relationship with both of my parents. I really love them both and I wish they accept islam one day as well. They aren't bad people, they just don't try to understand things. I also found a muslim friend back then and she helped so much! So glad to have her. Really miss all of them but I'm so thankful to Allah he gave me everything. I'll never be able to understand His mysterious ways.
Leona Leona So glad to hear things changed for the better! Allahumma barik! May Allah bless you marriage & give you righteous offspring. May Allah guide your family & put love in their hearts for Islam. Effort has been made to make Islam look bad & maybe your parents have been influenced by that. Try to have the best manners to proof them wrong & portray the way Islam truly is to the best of your ability, sister. You don't even know how happy I'm hearing that you're fine & didn't loose your Deen because of the pressure. May Allah give you more! ❤️
@@hopefulthatthingswillgetbetter alhamdoulilah really! Thank you for this beautiful message. May Allah bless you too!
I love how frequently you post now! Love you Sam ❤️
I just wanna say how grateful I am for you and your videos ❤️❤️.
Today is my first day wearing hijab (officially!) and your advice was the final push I needed to wear it today :)
Barak allahu feek💘
One of the main reasons I’m scared of starting to wear a hijab is that I don’t imagine myself with a hijab in the future is that weird? I’m scared that I’ll end up stop wearing a hijab
My friend told me that the hijab wasn’t “miah” like they blatantly said it wasn’t me and I don’t understand that. It’s just unsupportive I supported and discouraging.
I hope I can wear hijab too. Sounds like fun.
Akbar Muhammad me to
Honestly I'm already wearing it by now it's been since ramadan and I also quit couple of haram things and to be honest I'm so glad. The reason I wanted to watch your vid was to learn your side of thje story and maybe better help myself explain why I wear it I tend to have difficulty communicating the things I don't quite know how to explain and although I'm become to be better on understanding so I don't feel like a fool lol I know I'm not but it's hard because I'm the only one in my family that is a Muslim.. Revert that is, so thank you for sharing your piece of your story you literally helped me be able to better communicate my thoughts. I love it Alhamdulillah may Allah bless n' may he rank you higher MASHALLAH!!
Please comment if you can relate.
1 day before I will wear the hijab I am getting stressed and exited at the same time .I am so happy
Do you have poblems with islamophobia in Australia? I don't plan to wear the hijab, but islamophobia is my main concern on this issue. Because in here in Europe a lot of people are islamophobs. I hear from a lot of hijabis that they have to deal with daily insults and sometimes attacks. I feel like that the hijab would lost it purpose in such situations, because it would have exactly the opposite effect. I actually never saw a hijabi outside alone where I live, when it was dark. How would you deal with such stuff? Btw great video you are inspering many girls to wear the hijab :) May Allah reward you.
Do you wear any foundation or concealer? MashAllah! You skin is LITERALLY perfect lmaoo
loooool wow this compliment does wonders! Thank you! No foundation Alhumdulilah 😊
I was born muslim and i'm wearing hijab for a long time now, i'm leaving in a muslim country but you still give me such an inspiration girl!! You make me want to be a better muslimah.. And i'm really doing big efforts el hamdoulillah
Love you sooo much
I have a question for you please when u talked about not wearing clothes like the non believers is it not okay to weat those large pants that look like skirts ? And thanks for ur amazing videos ❤
I think as long as the shape of your body is not visible it's fine..
The first time I wore the hijab outside my mum and my younger sister went into the shop and I sat outside on a bench and a lady walked passed me and said OMG a scarf 😱 and she walked away whilst staring at me and for some reason I felt embarrassed
It happens when you wear a hijab there will be people passing by you and giving you those strange glares .
i love you
Esselamu alejkum 🥰 I watched this video two days ago and today I have decided to put my hijab on. It was a huge push for me. May Allah swt reward you for this video. I'm now a part of hijabii squaad 🥰🥰🥰
Your story is so inspiring and your advice is great❤may you be blessed
I have been wearing hijab behind my dads back as i was worried he was against it, based on previous comments. I told him i have been wearing it and he thinks i jumped into it too fast. How can i get over the guilt i feel for upsetting him so much and the urge and temptation to take hijab off as to not upset him
I want to wear one to school because i learned today u need to wear hijab after somethings happen and im scared cause somepll will pull the hijab and make fun of me
I'm pretty sure it's a rare occurance
You have a way with words and give it like its is. Thanks so much for talking about this.❤
Subanhallah Sam!! You’ve really inspired me to get closer to Allah swt. Since watching your videos I’ve felt an immense turn around in my life and I’ve started practicing more. I was born Muslim alhumdulillah and have never felt closer to Allah swt as I do now. Thank you.
Wow MashAllah! Thanks for making this video. You have no idea how much this video will help alot of people including hijabis and no hijabis... May Allah reward you in this dunya and akhira. Ameen.
Assalamualiqum sister I can't stop watching your videos I'm falling in love with every word you say you are an inspiration by the way I live in Australia too just started wearing hijab a year ago born and brought up Muslim people ask random questions about hijab like ah don't you feel hot in this all the time
Im 12 and I started wearing the hijab today and I’m so excited I myself was scared to to think about what ppl would say and that I wont get a proper job since Islamphobia sadly still is a thing but now that I realized that Allah is always by my side and he In Sha Allah make it easier for me. Allah knows what „he’s“ (I’m not sure how to write this sentences without the „he“ so please educate me if I’m wrong) doing so I shouldn’t be scared(: (I’m 12 and I’m still learning proper grammar)
i'm starting irl school next month and im scared, but i remember i had a dream and i was a hijabi, i remember i was the happiest and felt the most connected to Allah. I'll be wearing it from now on inshallah
so basically I did start wearing the hijab, but I took it off. but now I want to start again. please pray for me so I don’t take it off again ❤❤
Besides theological internal conflict, I suspect most people don't want to sweat their brains out under hijab in the summer.
Do I have the item for you! Off we go to Ebay and get us some stretch lace undercaps in lots of colors!
I kid you not, last year I tried one under chiffon and, in 105° heat, never cracked a sweat! Good looking and cheap enough to grab a handful!
Problem solved! No swimming pool required!
I converted to Islam 2 years ago my family is non Muslim... I am struggling to put hijab on I have decided now that I’ll put it InshAllah but scared of telling my family about converting... please suggest
Idk why, but I'm crying
Mashallah you're such an amazing inspiration sis!! I really want to start wearing hijab but I'm nervous ahh. Nonnetheless, Inshallah when school starts so will I 🥺💕💕
So I don't judge ppl externally but I judge them internally at times and I feel angry with myself for having bad thoughts about them. How do I change the way I see things or think about them?
What I have learned is that your first thoughts are what you've been taught to think, and your next thoughts are what you actually think. Don't put so much pressure on your thoughts. It is your actions that matter.
Amazing video. Thank you. Thinking of wearing hijab but my mind is clouded with all the fears you've mentioned. Allah make it easy for me. 🤲
MaShàAllah sister, I’m so proud of you and your faith and your mind, you are so beautiful and blessed to have a great mind and the way you think, may Almighty reward you with the highest Jennah with our beloved profit Sah
My family says they hate me being Muslim and hate hijab they say this every weekend. They say they will never accept me being Muslim . They say am lonely and have a few friends that's why am Muslim.
Thal Lu May Allah guide them towards accepting you and may He shower blessings and patience upon you for enduring this alll for His sake.
I love watching ur videos so much and i love u . Each day i wait for u to upload , keep up :)
I really want to wear one, but it looks like such a big commitment and I don’t know if I will ever want to step back from it.
Asalam o Alikum just want to say its your choice to wear hijab for the sake of Allah and if someone says negative about it just ignore it you look great in Hijab and MashaAllah you are a very strong person. Stay bless
I used to wear hijab for 11 years. In the last 3 , 4 years it begun to gave me headaches. After I wore the hijab for 2 or 3 hours, after that my headache begun and did not stop while I had the hijab on. I have thought at this last 2 years and, for the last 2 months, I took it off. But I do not feel comfortable as I thought. It did not gave me the comfort I thought it would be. I must mention that I live in a muslim country, so hijab is not a problem here. But my parents live in a non muslim country, and even they are muslims, they did not like the idea that I wore hijab. Obviously, they were very happy when I told them that I took it off. I wish I have not told them until I was totally decided. So, I took the hijab before I was ready for this, and now I regret. 11 years hijab, 2 months without, now again with hijab, Unfortunatelly I am thinking that people will say what is happening to me. I am lucky because my husband says is my decision, he does not want to influence me, because he wants me to decide what is better for me. What advice can you give me. Thank you.
You are truly an inspiration. Thank you
I always like to watch ur video and what ever u say makes me feel very happy ..ur evry word is very meaning full..
No one let anyone think or u yourself that u look uglier with hijab cz u don't u look as beautiful as a sister look beautiful to a brother ....
U r best sister I am praying for u may Allah keep you or right path so plz remember me in your prays too
