Your kids hijabs are so cool my daughter wants to wear them... and we aren't Muslim! 🧡 Ready to order a mommy daughter set but need to know how to order a custom dyed hijab.
@@naarah1879 If she were single and she could marry that person, a hijabi would cover their hair in the presence of that person. There is no requirement to cover hair in the presence of other women, family too close to marry, or her husband.
@@manahilabbasi6724 And wear a proper beard. And wear loose clothings instead of let's say..tight jeans or pants . Shorts under the knee, no jewels ,not too long hair. There's more ruling that I might be missing on men. Lowering their gaze ,yeah ,that's the bare minimum!
I so love and respect the fact that you won’t force your daughters to wear hijab or do anything that they don’t want to do. That shows me that you respect them as individuals.
Sadly its not in all families. Seen and people have told me. Like I saw fight with kid and her mom about wearing one. She had no free will not to wear it, and she was just a little kid. Mom was putting it over and over again on her and she just didnt want to wear and all that crying made my so sad.
@@tiiatuuli339:( parents who encourage free will especially to their children when they’re younger are the best in my opinion. Even children are their own little person and they have thoughts and feelings too. At least you know you’d be different than that mom you saw❤️
@tiiatuuli339 that's The difference between Islam and Islamists. Islam gives women many rights, from her choice of a wedding gift, to her own money from her job, to deciding how much she wants to cover, if at all. A man, be it her father, brother, husband, or in your scenario, the mother cannot dictate if she wears a hijab or not. Islamists are the polar opposite, they are not synonymous with each other. Perfect example is what's going on in Afghanistan. They aren't following Muhammad's word, it's not a form of the Muslim faith. Unfortunately, people confuse the two, and judge people that don't have the same beliefs. If anyone would like to correct me, please do. This is what I understand from this channel and going to a mosque once in Bahrain.
I had a classmate forced a hijab onto her and you could really see how that impacted her feelings towards her culture and religion. Force is never the answer.
No it's not about them forcing it she wouldn't have worn it and she lacks faith that's it I've known lots of girls in my town that were forced ( I was one of those that weren't ) but they were convinced and knew it was for a good reason and their parents wouldn't have obliged them if it wasn't GOD's will ! So yeah obliged , not obliged hijab is a must do in islam
Wear it, you don need to be muslim to do. 😘 But let me tell you hijab is not just that head scarf, it includes whole body clothing and your eyes, face and intentions. So if anybody says headscarf a hijab they are partially right.
I had a friend in high school and her parents forced her to wear it. She took it off when she got to school and put it back on when they picked her up. They found out at the end of the year with the yearbook. She then talked to them and they let her go without it. She still dressed modestly by “high school” or “teenager” standards and normal wore longer sleeves and pants or long flowing skirts. She was even on the swim team and wore a wrist to ankle swimsuit. Our principal even went to batt for her to be able to wear it at regionals. Her parents went to every meet and always yelled the loudest. I think she also played another sport, I think either soccer or volleyball. Still wore modest clothes the entire time and had her parents in her corner. I saw her years later, and she now wears a headscarf and teaches and coaches swimming at our alma mater.
@pandabear7177 the problem is its not their culture. It's their religion. Culturally, it makes sense to wear long loose robes in the middle east, regardless of religion. But it is a complete other thing when religion dictates a female child over the age of 9 has to cover from head to toe or is sinning because she is allowing herself to attract men. And that men are considered a level above women and women aren't allowed to make decisions or travel without their father, brother, or husband. I grew up muslim i know what I'm talking about. I "chose" to wear hijab but it is not a real choice if you are born into a religion and the alternative to the choice is hellfire. The religion is full of misogynistic rules telling women that they are at fault by tempting a man with their hair and body.
@@zahrakassam2559 I’m genuinely sorry for your experience. What you went through was terrible, and I hope you are in a better place. In my experience in California, I’ve only ever seen women who want to wear it. One woman at work almost lost her job for it, and had to fight to get it back. I know another young kiddo who wanted to wear it but her family said no. She wrote a paper on it at school. I was her teacher at the time and I showed it to her parents at conferences and they relented. They didn’t want her experiencing Islamophobia at school because they were both bullied relentlessly as teens- all because of their religion. Yes, there are misogynistic people (and I include women in that) everywhere. There are also women who embrace Islam because they feel like they are treated better by Islam than other religions. To each their own. I’m not Muslim. Not because of this, but because I simply don’t believe in it. But I will always support the people who choose it as a faith.
@@zahrakassam2559hun.. i think you have to educate about the reasons of these stuff you mentioned. If you're a Muslim as you said you'd definitely know how our prophet (peace upon him) treated women and said how precious they are.. please read about this
That's completely true I have a classmate who is Muslim and she does not wear hijab but she follows her beliefs either way and she is really loyal to religion she is cool
If they really mean it than that's great! I will never forget one 13 year old girl I saw on vacation that was obviously forced to wear a Hijab for the first time at sea in her life. We met her and her family every day for a week on a beach and she always sat far away from rest of the family with such a sad and hopeless face. The way she looked at her brothers and little sister enjoying their time in the sea was heartbreaking. I hope she is better now and that it didn't break her
I’ve seen women wearing them in a public pool in Toronto, I think they make hijabs for swimming and exercise. I wish she could have known about them and found a way to enjoy the water
@@faaaduma6876yes, in Scandinavia young girls run away from home because their father and brothers expect them to act like religious Muslims even though the girls were born in Scandinavia and has adapted to Western style. They run to shelters and sometimes they need new identitys so they can start a new life in peace,with no contact with their religious families. I don't know how common this is but it happens from time to time.
How was it obvious that she was forced to wear the hijab? Are you assuming that she was forced to wear it? Just because she was sitting apart from her family doesnt mean that this is the reason why. She may have had an argument about something else.
I got forced to wear one from when I was 8yo because my parents said I needed to be modest, even tho I was a literal child 🥴 I got beaten regularly if I didn’t want to, and eventually I lost my sense of identity and gained a disdain for being alive. I left home at 19 to escape my parents, and stopped wearing it altogether - in fact, I came to hate hijab because of how it was used to control my life. However, over the last few years, I have reconciled with the idea behind hijab and that the majority of women do choose to wear it. It’s still not for me, that isn’t to say it won’t be ever… but I guess for anyone reading this, be kind to your fellow sisters. Not all of us wish to adopt the hijab, some are not ready, and others just may not relate to it. One thing is for certain, we all are bonded in humanity 💗
I'm so sorry you experienced this. As a muslimah, I would hate if my parents did this to me. My mom wasn't forced by her parents, in fact she didn't wear it until her 20's
I think it's much more meaningful for your girls to make that choice on their own because it's a reflection of the state of their heart. You don't get to see that with the forcing of the hijabs. Thank you for raising your girls in such a loving and respectful way - many thanks for your time and energy and showing us all how to be gentle with the little hearts.
@@yusufmiraj1875 2:256, "There is no compulsion in religion. The right direction is henceforth distinct from error. And he who rejecteth false deities and believeth in Allah hath grasped a firm handhold which will never break. Allah is Hearer, Knower."
@@yusufmiraj1875 sure they should save their family from the fire but you don't save anyone by forcing them. Do you think if I took a gun to a nonbeliever's head and told them "Believe in God", and they 'believe', do you think that that would be a good thing for me to do, or more importantly: do you think Allah swt. would see that nonbeliever as truly believing and therefore would reward him with Paradise? Do you think that's how Allah swt. does things? I mean maybe He does idk but to my knowledge Allah swt. knows what you conceal and what you reveal, therefore if you believe only because you're being forced, but internally you don't really believe, not only would that be a sin on the guy who's forcing you part [since it goes against 2:256], but it would also do no good to the disbeliever because inside they wouldn't believe, and Allah swt. knows what they truly believe. Similarly if their daughter doesn't want to wear the hijab, but they force it on her, that won't do good to anyone, as the reason the daughter is wearing the hijab in this case is not because she wants to live a pious life, rather due to her parents forcing her to. But don't get me wrong I do think when the time comes for her to make that decision her parents should try and convince her to do so, but ultimately it is up to her and it is pointless to force someone to be pious as it's not really real piety. Secondly... I mean... okay? Do you believe The Qur'an was revealed by God or by man? If you believe it to be revealed by man sure then these verses may as well be "abrogated", but if you believe it to be from God, that makes very little sense. "4.82, What, do they not ponder the Koran? If it had been from other than God surely they would have found in it much inconsistency." [and yes I'm aware of 2:106 and 16:101, but not only do those verses not say what verses were abrogated, if any, but the arabic word for Verse, Ayat, doesn't always mean verse either, it can mean sign, miracle, etc, check it for yourself on quranx dot com] Plus the verse I quoted 2:256 is a medinan verse, so you can't even say it was a meccan verse. "Later on these verses were abrogated with verses that mostly entail to the entire society, and are not limited to the individual." Sure, bring your proof and then we can talk, especially the "and are not limited to the individual" one.
@@yusufmiraj1875 sure... but like "Also, in the Medina period there was a normal period, then the defensive period, then the offensive period. So you have to take all these things into " okay? and? I mean I believe God is outside of time so unless He specifically states that a verse is abrogated, there's no reason for it to be abrogated? I mean tbh I might've come off as a bit aggressive in my first reply and I apologize for that, I think we're on the same page more or less, it's just that you seem to think that the "no compulsion in religion" verses are abbrogated by the "fight in the way of God" verses? Which I think is like bogus I'll be frank. peace and hope you have a good day
The concept of "force" being bad never made sense to me. Every country has laws and those laws are en"force"d right? We do not let our kids break laws and say it's much more meaningful because their heart is aligned with the law and they really appreciate it. Stealing is not allowed. I would force my kids to not steal even though if they were in a situation they knew they could get away with it and they still did not steal that would be best. I will force my kids to wear seatbelts in the car also. It's a law, and even though it's best if they understand and value that the law is for their protection, I still have to force them to wear it even if they don't understand it.
@@fark69 that's honestly a really great question and it's one I've pondered a bit as well... Honestly for now? I don't really have a super solid answer yet, but I guess a sort of mini-answer I fall back on would be this: It's a religion thing, there's no force in religion, meaning that you can't / should not force people to practice a religion, or to follow the rituals of that religion, or whatnot. Justice is a different topic, but yeah. so yea I guess my answer would be: idk specifically but 4 now I guess I understand it as being a 'no force with regards to religious activities' thingy? I guess, idk, but yea. plus kids are different then adults, "forcing" kids to eat broccoli is not on the same level as forcing an adult to eat broccoli even if they're your own child, so there's that too. Plz take everything I say with a grain of salt none of this stuff is like verifed it's mainly my own two cents, please do your own research as well, peace out and have a great day
Because they’re growing up in a religious community, if you’re any your daughters to truly feel like they have a choice you have to tell them that it’s okay for them to choose bot to wear hijab. If you don’t consciously, actively talk about it with them they almost certainly won’t feel like not wearing it is an option. Either out of a fear of being distanced from their community, or a fear of disappointing you. And neither of those fears are healthy resins for them to choose hijab 💜
I also found one wording a bit weird he said something like they wear it if they choose to if they are connected to God. Maybe he misspoke but he made it sound like not wearing it was if you aren't connected to God
@@new0news thats exactly what he meant. its all doble talk, its not a choice, its forced indoctrination, they know its expected of them eventually. its like every religion that children grow up in
I wish my mom was like this! I love the respect for their decisions my mom forced me to wear it when I was 9-10 and it really affected me mentally because I was the only one at that age wearing it you two are honestly amazing!
Especially at such a young age! As someone from a very progressive/liberal background, I never understood why some parents sexualise their daughters from such a young age on. Let innocent children be children, no one is looking at a 10 year old girl and thinks her hair is attractive...
Yeah… you say that but that’s not what really happens realistically. I live in turkey. So many women from the Middle East the second they cross the boarder take off the scarf showing how it’s not their choice but the choice of their governments, fathers and husbands. Even in turkey a country that claims to be “free” I’ve heard stories about girls who don’t want to wear the hijab but their fathers force them. It’s not a choice…for millions of girls
İ am from turkey too homie. İ wear hijab with my choices. But as you said there are some people cannot do their own choices. And that's also not true unfortunately.
That has less to do with religion and more human's need to control. The religion is not wrong, the humans are wrong. I believe she simply means in the religion hijab is not mandatory.
Yup, the religion is not the one forcing it, but the "religious" people did. Same as my father as well. I live in malaysia, muslim women 50/50 wear hijab vs not, but the ones that wear, some of them would sneer secretly at those who dont and i'm like.... I'm pretty sure it's your hearts and faith and iman that matters😒🙄
Well that can happen in literally anything, people can force you into things without your will but that's no fault of the hijab or religion. Hijab is very harmless, the problem here is forcing someone to do something and it's a different issue. So stop victimizing every single woman you see wearing a hijab unless they ask for your help.
You are such lovely people and a breath of fresh air on YT. I am a Christian but I love to watch your videos and love the way you educate people about Islam. I have a lot of respect for you for what you've just said in this video.
Thank you for making these videos. I have an 8 year old granddaughter I am sharing these videos with. It is helping her understand another way of life. She says you have "pretty eyes" and your husband has a cool beard.
When I was like 9 I started wearing the hijab once in a while because I was so used to seeing everyone else wearing hijab that I wanted to try it out for myself! I started wearing it full on when I was like 10-11 by choice! My mother also used to say that the hijab is the crown and whoever wears it is the princess, that encouraged me a lot when I was younger!
That’s cool. I’m not Muslim but my mom said to me and my siblings when we were younger that God is King which makes us princes and princesses, and it still makes me feel special also bc he’s not just A king he’s King of kings
So only girls who wear a hijab are princesses? Seems kind of manipulative no? I feel like if you choose to wear it it shouldn’t be because it makes you more special but because you want to cover yourself
@@Justme-un1yp It was just something my mom used to tell me to be encouraged to wear the hijab. And yes wearing something as special as the hijab did make me feel special as a young muslim girl. Doesn’t mean no one else was special in their own ways, this was just my way. No need to be upset.
@@Shrey_Shrek well if you didn't know, Christian Indians wear shawls over their heads in prayer time or when they go to church. Likewise they are also given a choice whether to wear it or not. Again if they do not wear it, they are discriminated. In the case of Hindus, well many Hindus, if a women refuse to wear any ornaments, they'll say it's her choice but make fun of her by calling her a Pentecost and such.
Went to school with a girl and she said she got the choice when she was 13 so after her birthday she starting wearing hijabs and I loved seeing them every day bc she always had a new one and they where soooo beautiful! The pretty colors and patterns! 🥰
It’s nice to see you explain that the decision comes from the individual themselves - being in my 40’s now I am glad to see this. However, growing up in Britain in my 20s & 30s, many of my friends were forced to wear it & if they didn’t, they were labelled by their family members & friends as rebels. Nowadays, they ensure their girls choose to wear hijab or not 🙏🌹❤️
Can I just say how much I love both the educational aspect of what you do for those of us outside your faith and the way you act as a beautiful example for people who may be curious about embracing it. If everyone could be that kind of tolerant and open ambassador for their culture or religion, the world would be a much kinder place.
Me too.. I am a Pakistani girl and becoming a Doctor Alhumdulillah..I started just covering my hair with a scarf (but not like completely) when I was in my 4th year of college maybe..then After my finals and Before graduation I started wearing hijab Alhumdulillah by choice and understanding of my religion.. 😇💕🇵🇰
I really enjoy this family's content. I had never had a personal or professional relationship with anyone of the Islamic faith, so I only knew what I'd heard from media. I knew enough to not believe the stereotypes and hateful comments directed at Muslims, especially after 9/11; however, my lack of knowledge left me unable to share facts with unkind people I knew / know. I believe that knowledge of other cultures, religious practices, and traditions is key to opening lines of communication among people. Communication is key if we want any kind of better world.
@@SalehFamily exactly dude we need to be examples not forcing them to do it but they need to do it by heart for it to be accepted by Allah Or it's completely useless doing it
I decided to wear one in school when I was in 3rd grade. I was telling my parents, "I kinda want to go to school wearing hijab" and then on my birthday they bought me new school uniforms (with long skirt and long sleeves) and hijab. The first day I wore it at school, my friend called me "beautiful". It was really sweet of them. After that I only wore hijab in school, not all the time. When I was in high school like 17/18, I decided to fully wear it whenever I go out. Nobody forced me either, I came up to my parents once and they helped me with it.
I’m not even religious and i love y’all’s videos! Both seeing your dynamic and learning about your religion/culture is so great. Keep up the good work and teachings!!
This is exactly how all religious folks need to be. You can’t force a belief, you can only force someone to pretend. Being an example for your kids is the best way to encourage them to live well.
Except that is a lie. Look into the persecution they face in any Islamic country. Unable to leave the religion, unable to marry a non muslim just to start. Be honest.
Hijabs honestly look super comfortable and amazingly soft, if I had any close friends that wore a hijab I would totally be jealous, it just looks so soft!!
This is the second video I’ve seen of you two. I love the positive loving energy. I’m learning some new things about your culture/religion, which is great. ❤
I wish all parents were like this ♥️. Some parents force their daughters and then in the future the daughter doesn’t wear the Hijab cuz y would u do something that was forced upon u?
You need to study islam . Would you give your child the choice to do the five daily prayers ? Consider its mandatory and is the diffeebce between a believer and Disbeliever.? So why when the hijab is mandatory would you offer the choice? No rather you get your children to Love and understand the hijab and that it’s an act of worship for Allah’s pleasure, and they will happily wear it
@@luluah1198I don’t think religion in general should be forced on a child. You can show them you religion but once they get to an age when they can make their own decisions it should be their choice what they believe.
After watching their videos, I have come to believe Islam is a beautiful religion! It’s is based on choice, value and respect and I love that. My best friend is Muslim, it is such a beautiful religion, I’m so happy that people are educating people about it!
Leave those ignorants above me dwell in their bigotry and ignorance and please keep on educating yourself about islam and i hope you will be our muslim sister/brother in the future. Do not let ignorants trip you on your journey, ignore the hateful people and please learn more and more from trustful sources and scholars. Best of luck and may your friendship always flourish.
@@kenzahcarstairs5417 as someone who doesn't buy anything you said and as someone who you know nothing at all about or about the level of my actual knowledge, i don't have an interest in anything you say.

I love your channel! I had a friend in middle school who is Muslim. She moved away during high school. I learned a lot about her culture but was afraid to ask too many questions for fear of offending them.
Its good we have amazing people like you on social media telling people about Islam cuz a lot of people think Islam is something without freedom but hamdullah we have u guys✨✨
Sure, it’s each woman’s choice, they may not be “physically forced”… Either wear it and be loved and accepted by friends and family or don’t and be shunned and an outcast, your choice 🤷🏻♀️
What do you mean, someone who doesn't wear hijab is not an outcast, I wanna wear the hijab on day but im still not ready, and even tho I live in a muslim country I ain't no outcast
Tbh, it's not even about forcing. If kids from a young age are learning about Allah (SWT) and his Messenger (PBUH), then they'll definitely want to wear the Hijab. As Muslims living in the 21st century, we need to educate our youth about Islam, this will make them fall in love with Allah (SWT) and his Messenger (PBUH). Then they'll naturally want to do everything that the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) did. Anyway, May Allah (SWT) grant you happiness, health, and longevity. Ameen : )
i kinda wish there were no societal expectations for arab ppl who live in muslim countries to wear hijabs, i wish us ppl were left to do whatever we want without others pestering us for not conforming to those “expectations” that shouldn’t be expectations in the first place
@@qlowquestif you're a muslim though there are rules you have to follow and you don't have a choice in them. This life isn't all rainbows and sunshine and you have to have your limits.

@@allergictohumansnotanimals5671 i’m not a muslim, but there are still societal expectations on ex-muslims who are in the closet (meaning they hide the fact that they are not a muslim so they don’t experience backlash from the people in their country). thats why, i wish people let others to be who they are without making others afraid to be public about certain parts about themselves. its so mentally taxing
I love this. I felt like a lot of beliefs were forced on me and has a kid and it made it hard for me to want to learn. I love that you guys aren’t forcing your kids. They will really appreciate that especially once they grow up.
Jazak Allah khair this is so helpful for me to hear as a new parent. Tbh it really speaks to how much you guys trust Allah and are focused on teaching your kids to love Him
Can I just say how inspirational and amazing it is to hear you talk about your faith in such a positive way. We hear so much bad about the Quran and people twisting it. I find it refreshing to hear your message and the amount of acceptance and love you share. Just beautiful.
I mean, most parents who are religious are kinda like that. They hope and encourage their kids into what the parent believes is the ‘right’ path. Good parents will still love and support their children if they grow up to find another path that suits them, but too often that’s not how it goes. 🤷🏻♀️
It's heartwarming to find your content. Thank you. All I've heard from the media is fear-mongering. I don't believe that ALL of anyone's culture, or religion is bad, and you two prove it. I laugh a lot while watching and learn so much. Thanks again! 🥰
I’m sorry if this comes off as disrespectful I’m not trying to be but why do girls have to wear the hijab and boys don’t? Again not being disrespectful just a genuine question
Yeah I've question too Why boys don't gave birth to childs? Why boys don't grow their hair as long as girls ? Why boys don't feel pain as girls do while they're on their periods ? Why nuns fully covered their self from head to toe & why priest don't? Why boys don't wear skirts ? Answer this first.. I'm not trying to disrespectful please no hate Peace ✌️
In Islam, a man must cover the area between the navel and the knee As for the woman, she covers her entire body except for the face and hands But a woman is free to do that... She can be a Muslim without wearing a hijab
The naïveté of the posters comments is stunningly obvious. Of course their daughters are going to feel pressure to wear the hijab whether they want to or not. An astounding display of ignorance regarding passive pressure placed by parents. Whether the hijab is considered, an attractive garment is subjective. But its representation of misogynistic control is undeniable for the vast majority of the world.
I have Muslim neighbors who have teenage daughters. The hijab has been a huge source of contention in their family because mom and dad want them to wear it but the daughters have refused. Dad made a comment they have become too “Americanized”
I love that you don't force your ideology upon others. It's honestly so nice to know people won't do that to you, and I love the color of the hijab it's a gorgeous pink!
The issue is Islamic laws have been culturally changed to fit society, and at the time in many areas women were not given rights so even if they had the right to choose to wear a hijab the people did not follow it and forced it upon them. It is honestly amazing to see that the are still people who actually look into the truth. This is not just for Islam btw many cultures and religions around the world have misunderstandings and we need to see what is real and good for all and follow the correct path.
Well yes but there is LITERALLY A RULE banning this. Your not supposed to force it upon another and it is considered a sin if you do. So whoever does so isn’t even properly following the Quran.
Came here to say this but it had been said. I am not Muslim but I know of a few friends who were forced by their families, kind of similar to fundamentalist Christians who force skirts, dresses and/or other dress codes.
I love you both! Seriously, you bring a very needed truth to a beautiful religion. I have many Muslim friends who are some of the most wonderful individuals! I abhor the idea that anyone would think any other way about them than amazing! I watch everyone of your videos. Keep shedding truths on a very misunderstood religion! ❤
@@Twins38369 it's unfair that only women have to wear it. I believe this rule is made by men to control women I mean I respect people who believe in Islam but I hate the concept. Sorry
Thank you for explaining things within being a Muslim and so on. I think there is a lot of people that don’t have the the knowledge to understand. So thank you for that, and you guys so cute together. ❤
I actually started wearing hijab at 4. I know, very young. My mom didn't force me, but at the same time, she told us (me & my sis) to wear hijab most of the time. (if that makes sense). so I've been wearing hijab for almost...9 years I'd say, & I love it. But I do wish I had my choice to start wearing the hijab since my older sister had a choice
my parents gave me an option to wear hijab or not but my siblings always says "Why are you not wearing hijab?! You should wear one or elseee" and then my mom started saying "wear a hijab"
Thank you for explaining this more for us who may have less understanding of your religious practices. The more people understand those who are different then themselves the more difficult it is to hate. Keep educating us!
But what if they decide they don't want to be Muslim? I'm genuinely curious on how that situation would be. I think Hijabs are very pretty in fact I saw two women in Barnes & nobles last weekend and theirs were just beautiful and I had to compliment them on it because it was just so beautiful of course then I felt completely undressed because you know I had a tank top on it short and it just I was kind of uncomfortable you know cuz I feel kind of naked but they were just so beautiful and I wanted to make sure they knew that
His explanation seems so genuine. Alot of other religion's promise not to force beliefs on you until you don't comply. Then they judge you and gossip about it.
What makes you think islam is different? It's not a choice if the alternative is hellfire. Children shouldn't be obligated to make life changing decisions and told that they are sinning if they do the opposite. Even if it's said cutely.
I grew up somewhere with a lot of folx who follow Islam, but also a lot of Christian folks. I grew up being able to ask grown ups about stuff like this and having them give honest answers. So when people who don't know anything insist that the hijabs are always forced without talking to anyone who actually wears them I always find myself speaking up. I'm Christian but the devotion and love that Muslims show towards their god deserves respect nit hateful propaganda. Respect to you. Whichever god is the "correct" one, I figure a just god would appreciate the genuine devotion and faith, regardless of faith tradition.
Thank you for your videos. There is much that I do not know about Islam, and your videos help me to better understand. You are providing a tremendous service.
My mom started wearing a hijab when she was in gr 9 and my mom is making me wear a hijab next year when I start gr 8 because my mom is like "look at those little girls wearing it. You should wear it 🙄"
I will appreciate your efforts to design friendly stuff for hijabi girls. I will also request, also design dresses for hijabi athletes, office styles etc
Good. It's called good parenting to force your kids to do things that are good for them. Kids are forced to do chores. Forced to do homework. Forced to go to school (by police! Truancy is illegal). Forced to wear seatbelts. Etc. Etc. Why can we not also force them to dress properly?
@@cabbageman2184 should people be forced to wear seatbelts? Should we force them to wear helmets when driving motorcycles? Should we force them to not steal? Should we force them to pay taxes? Every law in our society is forced on people. Religions also have laws. Both religions and society have laws for the safety and well being of the people. There's nothing wrong with forcing people to follow laws that are good for them.
So she seems my age, and in school, people would get a lot of hate for wearing it. I think a lot of women didn't wear it for that reason. When we are younger we tend to rebel or wanna do thing our own way. Nowadays, wearing a hijab is more acceptable I'm society. Not that wearing one has anything to do with being accepted. Not saying the world is completely accepting but it is getting better.
I love that u guys are showing the side of your religion which is unknown to common people, as tv and all media pictured it just badly for years! love to learn love to see people's opinion changing
I don’t really know what things you should absolutely know cuz i don’t even know how much you know abt islam but i can assure you that you are always welcome with open arms and allah is very proud of you right now Amen
How Does One Become a Muslim or return to Islam? One becomes a Muslim by believing in the Two Testifications of Faith and uttering them with the intention of leaving out blasphemy. The Two Testifications of Faith are: I testify that no one is God except God ( Allah ) and I testify that Muḥammad is the prophet of God. One has to believe that the Creator, Allâh, exists, and is not similar to anything. He is the only Creator and the only One Who deserves to be worshipped. He does not need anything and everything needs Him. God has Attributes of perfection that befit Him and any imperfection is not attributable to Him. Any imperfection, such as ignorance, place, direction, body, soul, organ, children, change or weakness, is not attributed to God. The rule is simple: Whatever you imagine in your mind, God is different from it. God sent messengers the first of them was Adam and the last one was Muḥammad. All the messengers, including Jesus and Moses, were truthful, ordered their people to believe in One God, Allāh, and not to associate any partner with Him. Hence, their Religion was the same: Islam. There is also a hadith in Musnad Ahmad which states, while the Prophet (peace be upon him) was speaking to Amr ibn al-As, “O Amr, didn’t you know that Islam wipes away all of the sins that one performed before it.
Just shows how much parents who are educated in the deen and share that knowledge with the kids starting from day 1 and the environment that they are in can be beneficial to a child following the religion the way its outlined in the Quran..
I really love how openminded you are. I really believe that's the base of all religions, but nowadays everyone is so hatefull to eachother that a lot of people hate the concept of a religion. So I really love how you are so openminded❤❤
My last job my supervisor wore them and had so many in different colors and textures. You could tell her mood with them and she even had holiday ones. They were so beautiful
Check out our kids hijabs, inspired by our two girls here! lalahijabs.com/collections/lala-kids

Ready to order a mommy daughter set but need to know how to order a custom dyed hijab.
I have been wondering why can only certain people see you hair???!!🤍
@@naarah1879 If she were single and she could marry that person, a hijabi would cover their hair in the presence of that person.
There is no requirement to cover hair in the presence of other women, family too close to marry, or her husband.

@@marvellousmaryam15 thats what he said in the vid
@ E Harland for men hijab is lowering their gaze
@@manahilabbasi6724 And wear a proper beard. And wear loose clothings instead of let's say..tight jeans or pants . Shorts under the knee, no jewels ,not too long hair. There's more ruling that I might be missing on men. Lowering their gaze ,yeah ,that's the bare minimum!
I so love and respect the fact that you won’t force your daughters to wear hijab or do anything that they don’t want to do. That shows me that you respect them as individuals.
Sadly its not in all families. Seen and people have told me. Like I saw fight with kid and her mom about wearing one. She had no free will not to wear it, and she was just a little kid. Mom was putting it over and over again on her and she just didnt want to wear and all that crying made my so sad.
@@tiiatuuli339:( parents who encourage free will especially to their children when they’re younger are the best in my opinion. Even children are their own little person and they have thoughts and feelings too. At least you know you’d be different than that mom you saw❤️
@tiiatuuli339 that's The difference between Islam and Islamists. Islam gives women many rights, from her choice of a wedding gift, to her own money from her job, to deciding how much she wants to cover, if at all. A man, be it her father, brother, husband, or in your scenario, the mother cannot dictate if she wears a hijab or not. Islamists are the polar opposite, they are not synonymous with each other. Perfect example is what's going on in Afghanistan. They aren't following Muhammad's word, it's not a form of the Muslim faith. Unfortunately, people confuse the two, and judge people that don't have the same beliefs. If anyone would like to correct me, please do. This is what I understand from this channel and going to a mosque once in Bahrain.
@@shelleybelleyHI I found your comment really informing, thank you for taking the time to leave it.
@@Creaturexblaze thank you 😊, I really appreciate that
I had a classmate forced a hijab onto her and you could really see how that impacted her feelings towards her culture and religion. Force is never the answer.
No it's not about them forcing it she wouldn't have worn it and she lacks faith that's it I've known lots of girls in my town that were forced ( I was one of those that weren't ) but they were convinced and knew it was for a good reason and their parents wouldn't have obliged them if it wasn't GOD's will ! So yeah obliged , not obliged hijab is a must do in islam
I think hijabs are gorgeous. I would wear a head scarf to protect my scalp from being sunburned, and still look heckin cute.
💯
Wear it, you don need to be muslim to do. 😘
But let me tell you hijab is not just that head scarf, it includes whole body clothing and your eyes, face and intentions.
So if anybody says headscarf a hijab they are partially right.
@@AnasA.Ansari niqab isn’t mandatory tho, but i totally agree with your other points, it totally also includes manners etc!
@@marwamohabbat4768 niqab isn't but hijab is mandatory.
Beautiful 💗
I had a friend in high school and her parents forced her to wear it. She took it off when she got to school and put it back on when they picked her up. They found out at the end of the year with the yearbook. She then talked to them and they let her go without it. She still dressed modestly by “high school” or “teenager” standards and normal wore longer sleeves and pants or long flowing skirts. She was even on the swim team and wore a wrist to ankle swimsuit. Our principal even went to batt for her to be able to wear it at regionals. Her parents went to every meet and always yelled the loudest. I think she also played another sport, I think either soccer or volleyball. Still wore modest clothes the entire time and had her parents in her corner.
I saw her years later, and she now wears a headscarf and teaches and coaches swimming at our alma mater.
Teaching girls they have to be modest is still not cool. There is nothing immodest about showing your arms and legs.
@@zahrakassam2559 I don’t see an issue showing my arms or legs but that’s my culture. This is theirs.
@pandabear7177 the problem is its not their culture. It's their religion. Culturally, it makes sense to wear long loose robes in the middle east, regardless of religion. But it is a complete other thing when religion dictates a female child over the age of 9 has to cover from head to toe or is sinning because she is allowing herself to attract men. And that men are considered a level above women and women aren't allowed to make decisions or travel without their father, brother, or husband. I grew up muslim i know what I'm talking about.
I "chose" to wear hijab but it is not a real choice if you are born into a religion and the alternative to the choice is hellfire. The religion is full of misogynistic rules telling women that they are at fault by tempting a man with their hair and body.
@@zahrakassam2559
I’m genuinely sorry for your experience. What you went through was terrible, and I hope you are in a better place.
In my experience in California, I’ve only ever seen women who want to wear it. One woman at work almost lost her job for it, and had to fight to get it back. I know another young kiddo who wanted to wear it but her family said no. She wrote a paper on it at school. I was her teacher at the time and I showed it to her parents at conferences and they relented. They didn’t want her experiencing Islamophobia at school because they were both bullied relentlessly as teens- all because of their religion.
Yes, there are misogynistic people (and I include women in that) everywhere. There are also women who embrace Islam because they feel like they are treated better by Islam than other religions. To each their own. I’m not Muslim. Not because of this, but because I simply don’t believe in it. But I will always support the people who choose it as a faith.
@@zahrakassam2559hun.. i think you have to educate about the reasons of these stuff you mentioned.
If you're a Muslim as you said you'd definitely know how our prophet (peace upon him) treated women and said how precious they are.. please read about this
That's completely true I have a classmate who is Muslim and she does not wear hijab but she follows her beliefs either way and she is really loyal to religion she is cool
If they really mean it than that's great! I will never forget one 13 year old girl I saw on vacation that was obviously forced to wear a Hijab for the first time at sea in her life. We met her and her family every day for a week on a beach and she always sat far away from rest of the family with such a sad and hopeless face. The way she looked at her brothers and little sister enjoying their time in the sea was heartbreaking. I hope she is better now and that it didn't break her
I’ve seen women wearing them in a public pool in Toronto, I think they make hijabs for swimming and exercise. I wish she could have known about them and found a way to enjoy the water
@@fuzzyx2faceI wish she didn't have to wear it period. Her family should not have forced it on it as that itself is a sin.
This happens to be many young girls everyday. This become the norm specially in the west.
@@faaaduma6876yes, in Scandinavia young girls run away from home because their father and brothers expect them to act like religious Muslims even though the girls were born in Scandinavia and has adapted to Western style. They run to shelters and sometimes they need new identitys so they can start a new life in peace,with no contact with their religious families. I don't know how common this is but it happens from time to time.
How was it obvious that she was forced to wear the hijab? Are you assuming that she was forced to wear it?
Just because she was sitting apart from her family doesnt mean that this is the reason why.
She may have had an argument about something else.
Aww he waited for a reaction when he said "me neither" why did you ignore him?? 😂😭

@@quinnawinn9461 I mean, exactly! 🤣
@@SalehFamily ❤️❤️💖💖💗💗💜💜
I got forced to wear one from when I was 8yo because my parents said I needed to be modest, even tho I was a literal child 🥴 I got beaten regularly if I didn’t want to, and eventually I lost my sense of identity and gained a disdain for being alive. I left home at 19 to escape my parents, and stopped wearing it altogether - in fact, I came to hate hijab because of how it was used to control my life. However, over the last few years, I have reconciled with the idea behind hijab and that the majority of women do choose to wear it. It’s still not for me, that isn’t to say it won’t be ever… but I guess for anyone reading this, be kind to your fellow sisters. Not all of us wish to adopt the hijab, some are not ready, and others just may not relate to it. One thing is for certain, we all are bonded in humanity 💗
I'm so sorry this happened to you
I'm so sorry you experienced this.
As a muslimah, I would hate if my parents did this to me. My mom wasn't forced by her parents, in fact she didn't wear it until her 20's
A child should not even wear hijab, except if its for praying or by pure choice
I think it's much more meaningful for your girls to make that choice on their own because it's a reflection of the state of their heart. You don't get to see that with the forcing of the hijabs. Thank you for raising your girls in such a loving and respectful way - many thanks for your time and energy and showing us all how to be gentle with the little hearts.
@@yusufmiraj1875 2:256, "There is no compulsion in religion. The right direction is henceforth distinct from error. And he who rejecteth false deities and believeth in Allah hath grasped a firm handhold which will never break. Allah is Hearer, Knower."
@@yusufmiraj1875 sure they should save their family from the fire but you don't save anyone by forcing them.
Do you think if I took a gun to a nonbeliever's head and told them "Believe in God", and they 'believe', do you think that that would be a good thing for me to do, or more importantly:
do you think Allah swt. would see that nonbeliever as truly believing and therefore would reward him with Paradise? Do you think that's how Allah swt. does things? I mean maybe He does idk but to my knowledge Allah swt. knows what you conceal and what you reveal, therefore if you believe only because you're being forced, but internally you don't really believe, not only would that be a sin on the guy who's forcing you part [since it goes against 2:256], but it would also do no good to the disbeliever because inside they wouldn't believe, and Allah swt. knows what they truly believe.
Similarly if their daughter doesn't want to wear the hijab, but they force it on her, that won't do good to anyone, as the reason the daughter is wearing the hijab in this case is not because she wants to live a pious life, rather due to her parents forcing her to.
But don't get me wrong I do think when the time comes for her to make that decision her parents should try and convince her to do so, but ultimately it is up to her and it is pointless to force someone to be pious as it's not really real piety.
Secondly... I mean... okay? Do you believe The Qur'an was revealed by God or by man?
If you believe it to be revealed by man sure then these verses may as well be "abrogated", but if you believe it to be from God, that makes very little sense.
"4.82, What, do they not ponder the Koran? If it had been from other than God surely they would have found in it much inconsistency."
[and yes I'm aware of 2:106 and 16:101, but not only do those verses not say what verses were abrogated, if any, but the arabic word for Verse, Ayat, doesn't always mean verse either, it can mean sign, miracle, etc, check it for yourself on quranx dot com]
Plus the verse I quoted 2:256 is a medinan verse, so you can't even say it was a meccan verse.
"Later on these verses were abrogated with verses that mostly entail to the entire society, and are not limited to the individual."
Sure, bring your proof and then we can talk, especially the "and are not limited to the individual" one.
@@yusufmiraj1875 sure... but like
"Also, in the Medina period there was a normal period, then the defensive period, then the offensive period. So you have to take all these things into "
okay? and? I mean I believe God is outside of time so unless He specifically states that a verse is abrogated, there's no reason for it to be abrogated?
I mean tbh I might've come off as a bit aggressive in my first reply and I apologize for that, I think we're on the same page more or less, it's just that you seem to think that the "no compulsion in religion" verses are abbrogated by the "fight in the way of God" verses? Which I think is like bogus I'll be frank.
peace and hope you have a good day
The concept of "force" being bad never made sense to me. Every country has laws and those laws are en"force"d right? We do not let our kids break laws and say it's much more meaningful because their heart is aligned with the law and they really appreciate it.
Stealing is not allowed. I would force my kids to not steal even though if they were in a situation they knew they could get away with it and they still did not steal that would be best.
I will force my kids to wear seatbelts in the car also. It's a law, and even though it's best if they understand and value that the law is for their protection, I still have to force them to wear it even if they don't understand it.
@@fark69 that's honestly a really great question and it's one I've pondered a bit as well...
Honestly for now? I don't really have a super solid answer yet, but I guess a sort of mini-answer I fall back on would be this:
It's a religion thing, there's no force in religion, meaning that you can't / should not force people to practice a religion, or to follow the rituals of that religion, or whatnot.
Justice is a different topic, but yeah.
so yea I guess my answer would be: idk specifically but 4 now I guess I understand it as being a 'no force with regards to religious activities' thingy? I guess, idk, but yea.
plus kids are different then adults, "forcing" kids to eat broccoli is not on the same level as forcing an adult to eat broccoli even if they're your own child, so there's that too.
Plz take everything I say with a grain of salt none of this stuff is like verifed it's mainly my own two cents, please do your own research as well, peace out and have a great day
Because they’re growing up in a religious community, if you’re any your daughters to truly feel like they have a choice you have to tell them that it’s okay for them to choose bot to wear hijab.
If you don’t consciously, actively talk about it with them they almost certainly won’t feel like not wearing it is an option. Either out of a fear of being distanced from their community, or a fear of disappointing you.
And neither of those fears are healthy resins for them to choose hijab 💜
So true
100%
I also found one wording a bit weird he said something like they wear it if they choose to if they are connected to God. Maybe he misspoke but he made it sound like not wearing it was if you aren't connected to God
@@new0newsI think he meant that they're connected to God either way, but worded it weirdly.
@@new0news thats exactly what he meant. its all doble talk, its not a choice, its forced indoctrination, they know its expected of them eventually. its like every religion that children grow up in

Why you love nudity? You want to wear Naked dresses like western women?
Aww I hope you're okay now
Especially at such a young age! As someone from a very progressive/liberal background, I never understood why some parents sexualise their daughters from such a young age on. Let innocent children be children, no one is looking at a 10 year old girl and thinks her hair is attractive...
Yeah… you say that but that’s not what really happens realistically. I live in turkey. So many women from the Middle East the second they cross the boarder take off the scarf showing how it’s not their choice but the choice of their governments, fathers and husbands. Even in turkey a country that claims to be “free” I’ve heard stories about girls who don’t want to wear the hijab but their fathers force them. It’s not a choice…for millions of girls
İ am from turkey too homie. İ wear hijab with my choices. But as you said there are some people cannot do their own choices. And that's also not true unfortunately.
That has less to do with religion and more human's need to control. The religion is not wrong, the humans are wrong. I believe she simply means in the religion hijab is not mandatory.
@@SylverScourge that’s how I took it too
Yup, the religion is not the one forcing it, but the "religious" people did. Same as my father as well. I live in malaysia, muslim women 50/50 wear hijab vs not, but the ones that wear, some of them would sneer secretly at those who dont and i'm like.... I'm pretty sure it's your hearts and faith and iman that matters😒🙄
Well that can happen in literally anything, people can force you into things without your will but that's no fault of the hijab or religion. Hijab is very harmless, the problem here is forcing someone to do something and it's a different issue. So stop victimizing every single woman you see wearing a hijab unless they ask for your help.

When I was like 9 I started wearing the hijab once in a while because I was so used to seeing everyone else wearing hijab that I wanted to try it out for myself! I started wearing it full on when I was like 10-11 by choice! My mother also used to say that the hijab is the crown and whoever wears it is the princess, that encouraged me a lot when I was younger!
I am nine now and I started at age 6

That’s cool. I’m not Muslim but my mom said to me and my siblings when we were younger that God is King which makes us princes and princesses, and it still makes me feel special also bc he’s not just A king he’s King of kings
So only girls who wear a hijab are princesses? Seems kind of manipulative no? I feel like if you choose to wear it it shouldn’t be because it makes you more special but because you want to cover yourself
@@Justme-un1yp It was just something my mom used to tell me to be encouraged to wear the hijab. And yes wearing something as special as the hijab did make me feel special as a young muslim girl. Doesn’t mean no one else was special in their own ways, this was just my way. No need to be upset.

I really enjoy this family's content. I had never had a personal or professional relationship with anyone of the Islamic faith, so I only knew what I'd heard from media. I knew enough to not believe the stereotypes and hateful comments directed at Muslims, especially after 9/11; however, my lack of knowledge left me unable to share facts with unkind people I knew / know. I believe that knowledge of other cultures, religious practices, and traditions is key to opening lines of communication among people. Communication is key if we want any kind of better world.

I decided to wear one in school when I was in 3rd grade. I was telling my parents, "I kinda want to go to school wearing hijab" and then on my birthday they bought me new school uniforms (with long skirt and long sleeves) and hijab. The first day I wore it at school, my friend called me "beautiful". It was really sweet of them.
After that I only wore hijab in school, not all the time. When I was in high school like 17/18, I decided to fully wear it whenever I go out.
Nobody forced me either, I came up to my parents once and they helped me with it.
I’m not even religious and i love y’all’s videos! Both seeing your dynamic and learning about your religion/culture is so great. Keep up the good work and teachings!!
This is exactly how all religious folks need to be. You can’t force a belief, you can only force someone to pretend. Being an example for your kids is the best way to encourage them to live well.
So according to you Muslim women should become like western women half naked everytime wear naked dresses?
Except that is a lie. Look into the persecution they face in any Islamic country. Unable to leave the religion, unable to marry a non muslim just to start. Be honest.
Hijabs honestly look super comfortable and amazingly soft, if I had any close friends that wore a hijab I would totally be jealous, it just looks so soft!!

I wish all parents were like this ♥️. Some parents force their daughters and then in the future the daughter doesn’t wear the Hijab cuz y would u do something that was forced upon u?
You need to study islam . Would you give your child the choice to do the five daily prayers ? Consider its mandatory and is the diffeebce between a believer and
Disbeliever.?
So why when the hijab is mandatory would you offer the choice? No rather you get your children to
Love and understand the hijab and that it’s an act of worship for Allah’s pleasure, and they will happily wear it
Prayer is different than hijab although hijab is mandatory but with a choice unlike prayer there's absolutely no choice you have to do it

I love this. You are allowing your children to be themselves!!!! You two are so amazing!!!
Tbh, it's not even about forcing. If kids from a young age are learning about Allah (SWT) and his Messenger (PBUH), then they'll definitely want to wear the Hijab. As Muslims living in the 21st century, we need to educate our youth about Islam, this will make them fall in love with Allah (SWT) and his Messenger (PBUH). Then they'll naturally want to do everything that the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) did.
Anyway, May Allah (SWT) grant you happiness, health, and longevity. Ameen : )

How can you react like that without knowing the truth?
@@ifzasamaansayyed4464 what’s the truth? Are you denying that the prophet Muhammad had children as wives?
“Force” & “societal expectations” create the same results..
you are just weak to social pressure that's like saying the same for kids now with lgtbq shoved
So…?
i kinda wish there were no societal expectations for arab ppl who live in muslim countries to wear hijabs, i wish us ppl were left to do whatever we want without others pestering us for not conforming to those “expectations” that shouldn’t be expectations in the first place
@@qlowquestif you're a muslim though there are rules you have to follow and you don't have a choice in them. This life isn't all rainbows and sunshine and you have to have your limits. The west is TOO free and look where that's taking them. It's good to be surrounded by like minded people to make religious obligations more easier for a weak person.
@@allergictohumansnotanimals5671 i’m not a muslim, but there are still societal expectations on ex-muslims who are in the closet (meaning they hide the fact that they are not a muslim so they don’t experience backlash from the people in their country). thats why, i wish people let others to be who they are without making others afraid to be public about certain parts about themselves. its so mentally taxing
I love this. I felt like a lot of beliefs were forced on me and has a kid and it made it hard for me to want to learn. I love that you guys aren’t forcing your kids. They will really appreciate that especially once they grow up.
I so love your family. So much love ...
Jazak Allah khair this is so helpful for me to hear as a new parent. Tbh it really speaks to how much you guys trust Allah and are focused on teaching your kids to love Him
I love learning from yall! I don’t conform to a specific religion, but I love learning beliefs and ideologies that religions have.
"Me neither"
bruh you didn't have to lmfao, I love these two
Can I just say how inspirational and amazing it is to hear you talk about your faith in such a positive way. We hear so much bad about the Quran and people twisting it. I find it refreshing to hear your message and the amount of acceptance and love you share. Just beautiful.
Amen! Good to see a family loving God and accepting their family for who they are! May God love and bless your family!
Come to that decision on their own. Because their hearts are connected to God.
No pressure tho!
I mean, most parents who are religious are kinda like that. They hope and encourage their kids into what the parent believes is the ‘right’ path.
Good parents will still love and support their children if they grow up to find another path that suits them, but too often that’s not how it goes. 🤷🏻♀️
"me neither"
Well that made my day
you're here too
It's heartwarming to find your content. Thank you. All I've heard from the media is fear-mongering. I don't believe that ALL of anyone's culture, or religion is bad, and you two prove it. I laugh a lot while watching and learn so much. Thanks again! 🥰
I laughed so hard when he said me neither 🤣🤣
“ me neither”😂
You guys are great parents!!!! I wish every parent were like you guys!!! ❤❤❤
I’m sorry if this comes off as disrespectful I’m not trying to be but why do girls have to wear the hijab and boys don’t? Again not being disrespectful just a genuine question
Yeah I've question too
Why boys don't gave birth to childs?
Why boys don't grow their hair as long as girls ?
Why boys don't feel pain as girls do while they're on their periods ?
Why nuns fully covered their self from head to toe & why priest don't?
Why boys don't wear skirts ?
Answer this first..
I'm not trying to disrespectful please no hate
Peace ✌️
In Islam, a man must cover the area between the navel and the knee
As for the woman, she covers her entire body except for the face and hands
But a woman is free to do that... She can be a Muslim without wearing a hijab
I think she is asking why does a woman have to cover up her entire body and a man does not.
The naïveté of the posters comments is stunningly obvious. Of course their daughters are going to feel pressure to wear the hijab whether they want to or not. An astounding display of ignorance regarding passive pressure placed by parents. Whether the hijab is considered, an attractive garment is subjective. But its representation of misogynistic control is undeniable for the vast majority of the world.
Correct
This one☝️
I was thinking this same thing when they mentioned they don't force them to wear one lol
Obviously. 🙄
How did you come to that conclusion after listening to what they said?
You guys are amazing!!! Thank you for dispelling the myths and educating people
I have Muslim neighbors who have teenage daughters. The hijab has been a huge source of contention in their family because mom and dad want them to wear it but the daughters have refused. Dad made a comment they have become too “Americanized”
LOve this! My secondary family tried to force me to wear one but my parents didn't force me. I personally don't wear one but I respect those who do.
I love that you don't force your ideology upon others. It's honestly so nice to know people won't do that to you, and I love the color of the hijab it's a gorgeous pink!
So many say it is not forced, but that is not a true statement. Maybe it is not what you are doing but many, many are forced & beaten if not worn.
Sadly it does happen, but Islam is fully against these actions
The issue is Islamic laws have been culturally changed to fit society, and at the time in many areas women were not given rights so even if they had the right to choose to wear a hijab the people did not follow it and forced it upon them. It is honestly amazing to see that the are still people who actually look into the truth. This is not just for Islam btw many cultures and religions around the world have misunderstandings and we need to see what is real and good for all and follow the correct path.
Well yes but there is LITERALLY A RULE banning this. Your not supposed to force it upon another and it is considered a sin if you do. So whoever does so isn’t even properly following the Quran.
@@OrkiiLikestoEat yes, this is sort of the reason why Islam is looked down upon
Came here to say this but it had been said. I am not Muslim but I know of a few friends who were forced by their families, kind of similar to fundamentalist Christians who force skirts, dresses and/or other dress codes.
Did he just say me neither 😂!
There absolutely is force and compulsion look at the WHOLE Middle East with the exception of some countries.
You're the most amazing parents and your daughters are lucky to have you in their life !!!
“No forcing in this religion”? Don’t make me laugh. If it is true in your family, you’re in the minority. And if no forcing, still a lot of pressure.
A lot of these people commenting are in dream land! 😱
huge perk - not having to style your hair before you go out! 😌
We never have a “bad hair day”!
I actually like styling my hair- definitely one thing i'm going to miss if i ever start wearing hijab
Wow, amazing parents!! I love y'all.
I love you both! Seriously, you bring a very needed truth to a beautiful religion. I have many Muslim friends who are some of the most wonderful individuals! I abhor the idea that anyone would think any other way about them than amazing! I watch everyone of your videos. Keep shedding truths on a very misunderstood religion! ❤
“Who wouldn’t want to wear it.” Me.
Why you don’t like hijabs
@@Twins38369 Because I’m not Muslim. And if I was I’d be taking it off 24/7.
@@Twins38369 it's unfair that only women have to wear it. I believe this rule is made by men to control women
I mean I respect people who believe in Islam but I hate the concept. Sorry
@@smhmyhead9184 unfair?

Thank you for explaining things within being a Muslim and so on. I think there is a lot of people that don’t have the the knowledge to understand. So thank you for that, and you guys so cute together. ❤
I actually started wearing hijab at 4. I know, very young. My mom didn't force me, but at the same time, she told us (me & my sis) to wear hijab most of the time. (if that makes sense). so I've been wearing hijab for almost...9 years I'd say, & I love it. But I do wish I had my choice to start wearing the hijab since my older sister had a choice
my parents gave me an option to wear hijab or not but my siblings always says "Why are you not wearing hijab?! You should wear one or elseee" and then my mom started saying "wear a hijab"
Thank you for explaining this more for us who may have less understanding of your religious practices. The more people understand those who are different then themselves the more difficult it is to hate. Keep educating us!
It’s great no force is being put upon them and there own heart is a connection to God and so respect
But what if they decide they don't want to be Muslim? I'm genuinely curious on how that situation would be. I think Hijabs are very pretty in fact I saw two women in Barnes & nobles last weekend and theirs were just beautiful and I had to compliment them on it because it was just so beautiful of course then I felt completely undressed because you know I had a tank top on it short and it just I was kind of uncomfortable you know cuz I feel kind of naked but they were just so beautiful and I wanted to make sure they knew that
His explanation seems so genuine. Alot of other religion's promise not to force beliefs on you until you don't comply. Then they judge you and gossip about it.
What makes you think islam is different? It's not a choice if the alternative is hellfire. Children shouldn't be obligated to make life changing decisions and told that they are sinning if they do the opposite. Even if it's said cutely.
i love that you guys are thriving and confident in what you want !!!
Man I wish Christians would know that you don't need to force you're religion on other people
As a Christian, I wish people knew that too 😭😭
I grew up somewhere with a lot of folx who follow Islam, but also a lot of Christian folks. I grew up being able to ask grown ups about stuff like this and having them give honest answers. So when people who don't know anything insist that the hijabs are always forced without talking to anyone who actually wears them I always find myself speaking up. I'm Christian but the devotion and love that Muslims show towards their god deserves respect nit hateful propaganda. Respect to you. Whichever god is the "correct" one, I figure a just god would appreciate the genuine devotion and faith, regardless of faith tradition.
Thank you for your videos. There is much that I do not know about Islam, and your videos help me to better understand. You are providing a tremendous service.
My mom started wearing a hijab when she was in gr 9 and my mom is making me wear a hijab next year when I start gr 8 because my mom is like "look at those little girls wearing it. You should wear it 🙄"
“Me neither” 💀💀
I will appreciate your efforts to design friendly stuff for hijabi girls. I will also request, also design dresses for hijabi athletes, office styles etc
Some people are forced🥺
Good. It's called good parenting to force your kids to do things that are good for them. Kids are forced to do chores. Forced to do homework. Forced to go to school (by police! Truancy is illegal). Forced to wear seatbelts. Etc. Etc.
Why can we not also force them to dress properly?
@@fark69 People should not be forced to go to school either
@@fark69 And no, being forced to practice a religion is not good at all
@@cabbageman2184 should people be forced to wear seatbelts? Should we force them to wear helmets when driving motorcycles? Should we force them to not steal? Should we force them to pay taxes?
Every law in our society is forced on people. Religions also have laws. Both religions and society have laws for the safety and well being of the people.
There's nothing wrong with forcing people to follow laws that are good for them.
@@fark69 How is wearing hijab and seatbelts and the others things you mentioned even comparable
Respect that yall have so much faith in
So she seems my age, and in school, people would get a lot of hate for wearing it. I think a lot of women didn't wear it for that reason. When we are younger we tend to rebel or wanna do thing our own way. Nowadays, wearing a hijab is more acceptable I'm society. Not that wearing one has anything to do with being accepted. Not saying the world is completely accepting but it is getting better.
Why exactly do you love to wear the hijab?
Its a crown for women. It also protects your scalp from the sun.
I love that u guys are showing the side of your religion which is unknown to common people, as tv and all media pictured it just badly for years! love to learn love to see people's opinion changing
I am someone who is planning on converting does anyone no anything that I would like HAVE to know
What do you mean?
I don’t really know what things you should absolutely know cuz i don’t even know how much you know abt islam but i can assure you that you are always welcome with open arms and allah is very proud of you right now Amen
Why do you have to convert tho is there something allah can give to you that your god is incapable of?
How Does One Become a Muslim or return to Islam?
One becomes a Muslim by believing in the Two Testifications of Faith and uttering them with the intention of leaving out blasphemy. The Two Testifications of Faith are:
I testify that no one is God except God ( Allah ) and I testify that Muḥammad is the prophet of God.
One has to believe that the Creator, Allâh, exists, and is not similar to anything. He is the only Creator and the only One Who deserves to be worshipped. He does not need anything and everything needs Him. God has Attributes of perfection that befit Him and any imperfection is not attributable to Him. Any imperfection, such as ignorance, place, direction, body, soul, organ, children, change or weakness, is not attributed to God. The rule is simple: Whatever you imagine in your mind, God is different from it. God sent messengers the first of them was Adam and the last one was Muḥammad. All the messengers, including Jesus and Moses, were truthful, ordered their people to believe in One God, Allāh, and not to associate any partner with Him. Hence, their Religion was the same: Islam. There is also a hadith in Musnad Ahmad which states, while the Prophet (peace be upon him) was speaking to Amr ibn al-As, “O Amr, didn’t you know that Islam wipes away all of the sins that one performed before it.
@@fifafreebies8941 this is how narrow minded these people are 😆
Could you guys please talk about the Russian attack on Ukraine? It's very important topic. Please pray for Ukrainian sisters and brothers 🙏
Just shows how much parents who are educated in the deen and share that knowledge with the kids starting from day 1 and the environment that they are in can be beneficial to a child following the religion the way its outlined in the Quran..
I disagree with you guys
wearing hijab it is a must for adult Muslim women
You’re wonderful parents and love your content.
I really love how openminded you are. I really believe that's the base of all religions, but nowadays everyone is so hatefull to eachother that a lot of people hate the concept of a religion. So I really love how you are so openminded❤❤
My last job my supervisor wore them and had so many in different colors and textures. You could tell her mood with them and she even had holiday ones. They were so beautiful
