Muslim Women Students Proud of Attire
To you, they may seem oppressed, suppressed and silenced. But are they, really?
They cover themselves for modesty as set by Allah (God) through the Quran (Holy Book), yet they are judged by other people not to be free.
Wearing the hijab is seen as an act of submission to Allah. The hijab represents modesty; it is an act of worship and protection against lustful looks of others. The niqab is not required but it is just an extra degree of hijab.
