World Hijab Day

The World Hijab Day is on every February 1st. This event took place too every where around the world. This movement that start around 2013 is based on Nazma Khan experience, and want to shine the light on hijab, the headscraf is the symbol of Moslem women.

This is part of Nazma Khan email for World Hijab Day, which i found on CNN :

Nazma Khan started World Hijab Day to build empathy for this perspective and to encourage non-Muslim, and Muslims who don't normally wear a hijab, to try it out. The Arabic word hijab refers not just to a headscarf but to modest dress and behavior in general

you can find this CNN news on this CNN World Hijab Day


As for me, this is my second time around to participate, the first time around, i was quite sick and donate money to support the cause. The second time around, i did wear Hijab for a day, even though i am Muslim, i don't wear hijab on daily basis. Insya Allah, one day i can hijab and join all my sisters. I hope if you find this, please join, i encourage you, since wearing hijab is also a struggle, personal in the inside and also from outside world. I am envy to you all the sisters is already wear Hijab, because from my humble opinion they are brave and modest.
