I discussed many times with some of my colleagues in the university and my coworkers by asking them why do you wear the hijab ? and they always responded to me with the same answer
'' if I take it off , I will feel naked ''so if she ( a Muslim woman ) takes off her hijab and feels naked , that means she is forced to wear it because she says '' I wear it of my own free will ''
because if someone wears something of their own will , then they can take it off of their own will as well and that should not be a problem !
but when you Muslim woman says you feels naked when you takes your hijab off it , then you are full of psychological pressure and complexes
you are not aware of them already ! and you never thought of them , and they crept into you and that's what the '' octopus '' of hijab looks like
and it is something like this : first of all , e.g. if you are a Muslim woman who is not wearing a hijab and you look around
you seeing your female cousins and your friends in the university wearing the hijab
and for example when you see a woman started to wear the hijab , all other Muslim women around her will be like '' congratulations Rasha and your face is shining !
we want to kiss you and you are so beautiful ( due to wearing the hijab ) etc...
but if Muslim women see a Muslim woman who took off the hijab , their mouths twist into grimace and they will say to her '' why is that ? you took off your hijab ? ''
that's before any islamic law is implemented like , stoning , flogging etc... and before any Muslim condemns her from islamic point of view
but it's all about the way average Muslim women looking at her
just like what usually happens in the streets of Egypt and you guys can ask any woman who doesn't wear the hijab when she walks down the street or when she boards the metro
and how many times the societal pressure of Muslim community put on her to the point of making her wear the hijab
let alone , the way Muslims look at the women not wearing the hijab , e.g. when a Muslim woman boards the metro
a bunch of Muslim women will walk up to her acting like members of '' Hisbah '' ialamic doctrine which means '' accountability ''
and they will say to her ''' Oh , sister ! that's not acceptable that you don't wear the hijab and that's forbidden in Islam blah blah blah ...
or when a woman not wearing the hijab uses a taxi and once she gets in , the taxi driver will be like '' I ask Allah's forgiveness [ expressing his resentment at the way she looks ]
and all these signs made by Muslims towards the woman not wearing the hijab to tell her that she is a rejected person !
and in the worst scenario , Muslims pull her hair she she walks past them
so by acting like that , they send her a message telling her that '' you will not feel secure as long as you don't follow our laws ''
and after all that , Muslims say concerning a Muslim woman wearing the hijab that she wears it satisfyingly and of her own free will
No , but she reads into the whole atmosphere around her and knows that she has no place in the society if she doesn't wear the hijab
plus , she will be ostracized and hated by Muslims if she doesn't wear the hijab
and that Muslim community will look at her as a piece of '' meat '' if she doesn't wear the hijab ! and suffice to say the filthy comparison which the Islamists always use
that she looks like a piece of candy and the aluminum foil which sheikh Al-Sharawi said it that the uncovered woman looks like a piece of candy or meat
that if a piece of meat is left somewhere uncovered , the flies and cats will come to it
so in both comparisons , they liken the uncovered woman to a piece of meat and the man to a fly , so they contempt both of them by those comparisons !
all these the messages meant to be sent about the woman who is not wearing the hijab ! and this is one complex followed by another one and another one ...
when Muslims frighten the woman of her body for not wearing the hijab , that will destroy 60-70 % of her capacity because the woman is made of soul and body
when her body is completely brushed aside and covered
once , I said something and Muslims got mad at me when I said that I consider the hijab as a shroud for the woman where she is being wrapped with a white shroud
[ how beautiful is that ! '' ironically '' ]
that the woman wearing the hijab concealed herself from the society and by doing so , she sends a message out there insinuating that any woman doesn't wear the hijab
is considered a *** even is she doesn't utter it by her own tongue but , her hijab speaks volumes !
what kind of freedom is there when Muslims say if a woman who wears the hijab , she will go to paradise and the one who doesn't , she will go to hell ?
and what kind of freedom does still exist there after all these concepts about hijab ?
what kind of freedom is there ( Oh , Muslim woman ! ) when you wear the hijab , all other Muslims around you will feel proud of you , they congratulate , they give you a hug
and they will tell you '' your face is shining ! '' but , if you take it off , they will ostracize you and they give you a dirty look as if you committed an obnoxious act on the highway !
so , what kind of freedom is there in that ? and what freedom of choice are you ( Muslims ) talking about ? and how do you make fun of yourselves by all that ?
