No disrespect to hijab, or Muslim customs; but I couldn’t ignore a couple of things while reading this article and looking at Seyam’s picture. She spoke of modesty, inner beauty, and “shifting the attention from her outer self to her inner self”. My question is, did she thought of modesty and inner beauty before or after she applied heavy make up, powder, foundation, blush, eyeliner, mascara, tint-shadow, lip-gloss and clipped her eyebrows?
ones wearing skin tight jeans and tops ,sporting hijab are the best example of hypocrisy.
That’s why we think it’s some kind of political statement.
This one in the article didn’t go hijab until she went to college.
