YOUR HIJAB YOUR PRIDE

Bismillah. For the girls who have yet to discover the beauty of the veil.
Your hijab not only covers you, but can also protect,
It makes men view you as a decent person, not an object.
And when the Quran orders:
"tell the believing women to lower their gaze,"
You ought to do so,
and must not have evil face.
Your hijab veils your shame,
it can pull you away from several evil deeds,
It makes others recognize you as a faithful, true Muslim,
Who listens to Allah SWT and heeds.
Your hijab, like I stated before, reveals you as a truly trying believer,
A follower of the Prophet s.a.w. peace be upon him and his lovely family,
and avoider of a deceiver,
Your hijab expresses who you are,
and it earns you respect of greatness,
Not one man of the Non-Mahram category
dare ever eye you to witness!
Your hijab tells others: Better treat her seriously,
If they mess around and ignore
the warning signs,
They'll have to pay greatly.
Your hijab is never ugly!
No, no, it makes you feel prettier than ever.
It's just that your Lord wants you to hide your gifted beauty,
You'll enjoy it in Paradise, in which you will, Insha Allah, abide in forever.
