Hello, thank you for doing this video. :) I cannot believe the hijab challenge has had some of the exposure it has gotten. Alhamdullilah (thank God) more people are able to experience it and have a better understanding.

Anyone else thinking of taking 'the hijab challenge', please don't hesitate ^_^ Take care! :)

thats nice it really takes guts and courage to take the challenge . i dont care what people say when i wear the heejab , a true friend should love you for who you are and not the way you dress.

wow well done on going through with the challenge. I am a muslim and i wear hijaab and when i started wearing hijaab 4 years ago now, i wore it to work for the first time and i was sooooo nervouse and felt incredibly 'clumsy' and not at all elegant like some other hijaabies i know. now its very much part of me...but i wont forget the 'awkwardness' i felt, so well done! it takes a brave woman to do it! and i was doing it for my Lord and it was hard enough. x

Peace,Sister.

MashAllah! You look very modest with the hijab. Allah bless you.

I humbly invite you to watch my video on youtube:

Thankyou for doing this challenge! I am a muslim revert American country girl & can relate to your experience. I only have watched this video - but your others are "calling" to me as I write this response - so I'm off to watch more of you!

Thanx again Sis, & hope you continue to wear your hijab as it really looks good on you!!!

Salaam (peace)

Hi, raven 649

I am a muslim woman who wears hijab in a western country and i would just like to thank you for this interesting insight into what it was like for you.

What you said about Islam at the end was really refreshing and touching and i am so glad to see that not everybody judges us for the horrible, heinous acts a minority of us have committed.

Once, again thankyou and all the best of luck with, well just everything ;D
