It is hard to summarize the reason why I personally
choose and love to cover up in five bullet points, so this will be a
challenge. Here goes:
1) The love of Allah
You might be thinking, “what does the love for Allah have to do with
covering up?” Well, it is he who has commanded all us women to cover our
bosoms and cover up. And so it is important to safeguard the initial origins
and reasoning as to why we all cover up in hijab. Lets face it; if It wasn’t a
command given by Allah we would not have been wearing it. So by having the
intention of “I am doing this out of the
love of Allah, and I am abiding his law” is essential.
2) Modest in looks
YES! This is the core reasoning as to why
we cover up in Islam. I would hate to even think about the possibility of me
walking down my road wearing tight, immodest clothing. The looks form men/women,
its just degrading.
3) Modest in action
Believe it or not! Covering up prevents you from doing many
haram things, which would have been “cool” to do otherwise! And yes, we all
have seen the random few who we see doing haram while in a full hijab. But lets
face it, it all comes down to “ina man
a'malu bin niyyah”. So, covering up for the right reasons, and knowing the
responsibilities that come with it.
4) Simplicity
One piece garment. Simple.
5) Time
The time it takes to get dressed in the
morning... bang bang done! Elhamdulilah
