I Decided To Try Wearing a Headscarf Next Semester
I sincerely hope I do not offend anyone.
I have been thinking about this for a while now.
Just for a little while, to understand how it feels
take the plunge

Hijab
hi·jab/hiˈjäb/
- A head covering worn in public by some Muslim women.
- The religious code that governs the wearing of such clothing.
I have been curious about the Hijab for a really long time. I was a raised a Hindu, and my parents have always taught me to be respectful towards other people’s religions and beliefs. However, I wonder how they would feel if I started wearing hijab? When I asked my mother about hijabs, she brought up how Hindu women in India would often cover their hair in a similar fashion. Another famous example is the Virgin Mary who also covers her head in most artistic depictions of her. I’m not really sure where I’m going with this.
People often see the hijab as a form of oppression. Others see it as something that liberates them from a society that teaches people to judge someone based on their looks. I am curious to see what it would be like to wear a hijab.
I am incredibly worried about offending other people. This is not my intention. The few people I have spoken to about it have assured me that it would not be offensive if I decided to wear the veil. I would love to learn about women in different religions, and this would be one way of immersing myself in this particular culture.
