The topic I'm going to write about today is a controversial topic however I believe that it is an issue that must be tackled. A few days ago on my Instagram account a sister left a comment on one of the pictures I had posted months ago. I am posting the photo here to help you understand the context of the discussion.
The comment was that niqab has nothing to do with Islam. When I tried to explain to the sister that niqab is actually an integral part of Islam, she went further and claimed even the hijab (headscarf) is a tradition and it has got nothing to do with Islam. Unfortunately this is not the first time but I have heard a Muslim sister or a brother say such a thing...
