:salam2:
today at work I was asked many questions about Islam, particullarly prayer, marriage, hijab and niqab. I love when people ask me about Islam as this is an ideal opportunity for me to rectify the Image of Islam, in particular- the Muslim woman.
anyway, one question posed do me was that of niqab and the reasons why women choose to wear it. whilst i am good at answering questions with respects to hijab, prayer, etc, I dont think niqab is my strong point because personally I do not wear it (but i wear hijab) but I did try my best to give them good answers.
okay, so my question posed to those who wear niqab is:
what made you wear niqab? or what was the deciding factor that made you wear it (maybe sis palestine can help?)
I know it is youre choice etc but i want a strong response so that I can convey this to these people. I also told them that there are many american/british reverts who chose to wear niqab because they strongly believe in it. I need something which a typical scottish woman can understand: something simple, but strong.
