I started Pardah 7 years back and it was quite a struggling moment. There were tons and tons of questions that i thought what will I do at my wedding? What will I do in my university? What about parties and farewells? All i thought at that moment was Allah I am jumping off the cliff and I trust you that you'll give me wings! And can u imagine the first day of my college was my first day of wearing Niqab it was quit hard to decide because there was one thing that was very clear that was if I start it I'll never drop it! I was the only 1 student in my whole college only one girl in the whole gang who wore Niqab!! And interestingly it was girls college but ofcourse there were male teachers all i knew was if i start it today then I'll have to do it from each and every person every male that passes by every man that looks or even just pass without a glance all I knew was I have to protect my chastity, I have to cover up myself because yes I am beautiful yes I am precious because I am أحسن تقويم no matter if someone will look at me or not my Lord is looking at me He is the one who created me He is the one made me precious all I knew was Because "He said so it's done!" Every thought every moment every second that made me question " Not to start" the answer was this simple "Because He said so it's done"
And what not u know what? How many girls there wanted to start Niqab but didn't have the courage to do so because no one else in the college did.
I am not saying it's easy it's not a bed of roses. Jannah isn't this easy right? I did received weird looks at the start. Even someone said What uh doing girl!!? It's girls college. Why you have to cover up here? All they knew was it's something done in too many males lol don't you see your chemistry and English Sir? Aren't they males dude.? Whatever I ignored and prayered on that very moment! That's the beauty of my religion My Rabb is listening as I speak even before i speak just a whisper and He's all ears i whispered Yaa Allah I know you're not only looking at me but looking out for me!! Ya Rabb make me steadfast!!
And some days passed. What i saw that day still makes me happy for my decision? One of my best friend came up with Niqab and you know what she said?? She said you inspired me to carry this! Subhan Allah!
And the other day another friend came up with Niqab and then another and then another days passed by and seven to eight girls started wearing this Niqab! You feel it's a piece of cloth!?? No girl you're wrong it's not a piece of cloth it's the Hukam of my Rab I do it because"He said so" and that's it Nothing is left when your Rab says something no thought no second moment to think JUSTT GRAABBB AND DOOO ITT!!! Trust me He will take care of you that's my promise!!
If you're struggling with Niqab Hijab Abaya tell me in the comments What's stopping you??? When "HE SAID SO"
Ps. We were a group of three friends and now when I see my college pictures I see a group of three Ninjas having fun all around the Corridors and classrooms and what not!
Niqab never stopped us from doing anything and till date we carry it with dignity and pride!!
