I live and work in central london and I wear hijaab and jilbaab..........more than often I wear black. I have no problem alhumdulillah. May be once in a blue moon I get that uncomfortable feeling. But who cares what people think! I think sometimes sisters are paranoid and sometimes they aren't. If someone is staring at your face...........does it always mean they are hating what they see? maybe they are curious? maybe they think you have a nice nose or a nice face?who knows. who cares.

As Salamu Alaikum

Jazakallahu Khairan sister Mishmish for posting this article. Normally we see very negative articles on Hijab. This is like a breath of fresh air.

Thanks once again

Wa alaikum Salam

Walaikum Assalaam Sister Alwardah:

You're welcome.

Salaams.

Asalaamu Alaikum:

Shouldn't that question be a new thread?
