Question:
I am a teenage Arab Muslim girl. As a teenager, I feel I have yet to discover the true meaning of a “hijab”. Many people I ask give me just one straight forward answer. It is making sure no hair on your head is revealed to any man unrelated to you. I feel there must be a lot more to it than just that, and I am very eager to learn what it is exactly that allows a woman to call herself a “muhajaba”. Also, I have met and seen many women wearing fashionable headscarves full of designs, prints etc. Does not this go against Islamic teachings?

پرسش
من یک دخترعرب مسلمان هستم. حس می کنم هنوز باید معنای واقعی حجاب رو بدونم. خیلی از مردمی که ازشون می پرسم یک جواب ساده بهم می دن که میگه موهاتون رو نباید نامحرمان ببین. فکر می کنم پاسخ باید چیزی فراتر از این باشه و خیلی مشتاقم که بدونم چه چیزی هست که باعث میشه یک خانم خودش رو محجبه بدونه. همچنین من خانمهای زیادی دیدم که روسری های باب روز پوشیدند پر از طرح و نقش. آیا این پوشش برخلاف آموزه های اسلامی نیست؟
