Hijab is an important part of the modesty of a Muslim woman. This Islamic dress code requires women to cover the entire body with loose clothing except for the hands and face. The term hijab refers to modesty in a broad sense, including demeanor, voice, and gaze, although it is more often used to describe hijab alone, as in this article. The purpose of the hijab is to hide the beauty of women from men who are not relatives and to give the identity of followers of the Islamic religion. The steps below will guide you in choosing which one you might prefer.
Step
Part 1 of 4: Choosing the desired Hijab Style
Step 1. Look up the hijab provisions on the internet, or in Muslim magazines
The important condition is that only the face is visible, so every strand of hair must be hidden. Many Muslim women post hijab style tutorials on the internet, but be aware that the basic characteristic of the hijab is that it doesn't attract attention, so don't let the hijab be considered a fashion accessory. You'll learn the types and products of hijab available while searching, and what to do with hijabs that need to be tied, folded, twisted, or pinned.
Step 2. Choose your hijab
Visit a shop selling Muslim clothing and have a look at their selection of hijabs. Some hijabs use a piece of cloth that can be rectangular, rectangular, or triangular in size. This fabric is often twisted and tied to hold it so it doesn't come off. Another hijab can be a turban that is directly worn to the head, and this type has a one-piece and two-piece style. The turban style is often easier for beginners, as there is no need for pins. Look for a hijab that matches your outfit, or in a neutral color. Avoid wearing flashy colors and designs that stand out. Hijabs made of natural fibers such as silk or cotton are often more comfortable, because these fabrics are "breathable."
Part 2 of 4: Getting Ready to Wear Hijab
Step 1. Start wearing hijab when you are ready
If you are not ready to wear the hijab, you can confuse or even offend other Muslims by wearing the hijab inconsistently. So, you should start wearing the hijab once you feel ready to commit to wearing it consistently, but most importantly, wear it for the sake of Allah alone.
Step 2. Don't feel trapped
Don't think that if you wear hijab, people will look down on you. Your friend will still be your friend. If someone questions your decision to wear the hijab, tell them you want to be a good Muslim. They will start to appreciate what you do. If they start commenting and criticizing your decision to wear the hijab, you have to decide whether your relationship with that person can tolerate differences, or whether you need to keep your distance to avoid further conflict. In addition, you can be a representative of all Muslims. Show that Muslims care about their image. Some Muslim women choose to take the additional step of covering their faces with a veil as part of the hijab.
Part 3 of 4: Be Elegant in Wearing Hijab
Step 1. Realize that you can look smart too
Wear a cool tunic, wide flounce skirt, big pipe pants, and a long, fitted jacket. Many Muslim clothing manufacturers offer beautiful long dresses for both casual and formal events, as well as chic suits for the office. Hijab isn't uniform and doesn't have to be boring, but it doesn't have to be too much either.
Step 2. Wear whatever you want when you're around female friends
Free is fun! Show your hijab-free personality. Make sure there are no men at all in the room; put a sign on the door if necessary.
Step 3. Look for clothes that allow you to stay active and simple
If you are participating in a team sport, you will need to wear a long shirt or pants under the team uniform. Look for a hijab designed specifically for sports in a color that matches the uniform or a neutral color, as determined by your coach. If you're not playing in a team, loose-fitting jogging pants, long-sleeved shirts, and hijabs designed for active wear are appropriate for sports. For swimming, fully covered clothing is available at Muslim clothing stores. If you follow the sunna of riding a horse, try to wear a long coat that covers your jodhpur pants.
Part 4 of 4: Wearing Hijab
Step 1. Put on a bandana or ciput first
This will help keep the hijab from falling off.
Step 2. Fold the hijab as shown
Put it on the head.
Step 3. Make one side at waist level and the other side at belly level
Step 4. Sweep the long section over the short section around the head
Step 5. Pull the shorter part
This will tie the hijab as tightly as you want.
Step 6. Put the pin around the head
Step 7. Leave the short part dangling
It is used to cover the chest; needle if necessary (optional).
Tips
- You can make your own hijab if you want.
- Believe in yourself and others will respect you for wearing the hijab.
- Neutral colors, such as white, brown, beige, blue, and green are probably the safest alternatives to the ever-popular black.
- If you have fine hair, use the smaller sections of the two-piece hijab to hold the hair back. This way you can perform activities without having to fix your hijab every five seconds.
