the end..=)) that's the bits and pieces of my life in college and im grateful to have wonderful and great friends and lecturers..even though im the only malay and muslim in my class..especially with the hijab on.. all of us are treated equally and there is no way you would feel discriminated..we shared our laughs and2 yar.. i had a good laugh with all of you..you guys are awesome..=))
ok..i like the 3rd one..cos i dont get what he meant by 'very good'..is it because im not cold or because im covered?..hehe =) or both..=))
so..in a nutshell.. i love hijab=)) cos its an identity as a muslim =))) wear it proud and wear it with pride=))

A few pointers for you to add insha Allah the next time someone asks you about hijaab :)
Hijaab is worn:
1) for Allah swt because Muslim women are ordained to wear as stated in the Qur'an. (suraah al-ahzaab I believe; insha Allah check it out again ;) )
2) You can say that wearing Hijaab is to uphold modesty; an act of honour and dignity; an act of purity; an act of righteousness
3) It protects us from strange men staring at us. We don't like to share our beauty with just anyone :)
4) As for your Christian friends you can say: I wear Hijaab because I follow the ways of Mary who wore hijaab too. It is nothing new, hijaab didn't come from something strange but in fact had been there for centuries alhamdulillah :) *ask them why they are not wearing if they love Jesus a lot and follow his footsteps hahaha :)
insha Allah :)
