Isn’t this wonderful? Covering faces is an issue that involves questions of identification and law enforcement, but who could possibly object to women covering their hair if they wish to do so? No less an authority than Barack Obama has affirmed this: “Moreover, freedom in America is indivisible from the freedom to practice one’s religion. That is why there is a mosque in every state in our union, and over 1,200 mosques within our borders. That’s why the United States government has gone to court to protect the right of women and girls to wear the hijab and to punish those who would deny it.” — Barack Obama, Cairo, June 4, 2009
It’s all about freedom, right? So I am looking forward to Nazma Khan organizing World Uncovered Hair Day, in honor of Aqsa Parvez, whose Muslim father choked her to death with her hijab after she refused to wear it; and of Amina Muse Ali, a Christian woman in Somalia whom Muslims murdered because she wasn’t wearing a hijab; and of the 40 women who were murdered in Iraq in 2007 for not wearing the hijab; and of Alya Al-Safar, whose Muslim cousin threatened to kill her and harm her family because she stopped wearing the hijab in Britain; and of Amira Osman Hamid, who faces whipping in Sudan for refusing to wear the hijab; and of the Egyptian girl, also named Amira, who committed suicide after being brutalized for her family for refusing to wear the hijab; and of the Muslim and non-Muslim teachers at the Islamic College of South Australia who were told that they had to wear the hijab or be fired; and of the women in Chechnya whom police shot with paintballs because they weren’t wearing hijab; and of the women also in Chechnya who were threatened by men with automatic rifles for not wearing hijab; and of the elementary school teachers in Tunisia who were threatened with death for not wearing hijab; and of the Syrian schoolgirls who were forbidden to go to school unless they wore hijab; and of the women in Gaza whom Hamas has forced to wear hijab; and of the women in Iran who protested against the regime by daring to take off their legally-required hijab; and of the women in London whom Muslim thugs threatened to murder if they didn’t wear hijab; and of the anonymous young Muslim woman who doffed her hijab outside her home and started living a double life in fear of her parents, and all the other women and girls who have been killed or threatened, or who live in fear for daring not to wear the hijab.
When is their day? When will anyone stand in solidarity with them? Those who taunt or brutalize hijab-wearing women are louts and creeps, and should be prosecuted if they commit any acts of violence. At the same time, the women who don’t wear hijab in Muslim countries are far more likely to be victims of violence than hijabis in the West. Who speaks for them?
Here is the organizers’ explanation of World Hijab Day (thanks to Pamela Geller):
World Hijab Day is Here!Feb 1st, 2014: An open invitation to both Muslims & non-Muslims to wear the hijab for a day.The brainchild of this movement is a New York resident, Nazma Khan, who came up with the idea as a means to foster religious tolerance and understanding by inviting women (non-Hijabi Muslims/non-Muslims) to experience the hijab for one day.Nazma Khan tells us (TEARFULLY) about the persecution she faced due to her hijab and why she started World Hijab DayFor many people, the hijab is a symbol of oppression and segregation. By opening up new pathways to understanding, Nazma hopes counteract some of the controversies surrounding why Muslim women choose to wear the hijab.Our mission is to have 1 Million participants on February 1st, 2014 worldwide, insha’Allah! It is only through working together we can achieve: ”Better Awareness. Greater Understanding. Peaceful World.”Our goal is to foster global religious tolerance through Hijab awareness.
Please inform your friends/family (Muslims/non-Muslims).
Please note that hijab doesn’t only mean headscarf.
Hijab = Covering of the whole body including head, chest, arms, legs. Attire should be loose fitting.SISTER TO SISTER
I know you have heard it all before. You have gotten the questions, the looks and the small chitchat from young and old as you walk by about your lack of observation of Hijab. I know. You probably have gotten the bitter side of advice throughout the years; you probably are fed up with the reminders about Hijab.
This is not just another one, sister. This is a sincere letter from a sister you do not know but who wishes goodness for you in your life and the Hereafter. A sister who wishes for her own self what she wishes for others. Do I desire Jannah (Paradise)? Do I desire Allah’s Pleasure? Do I desire to sit amongst the blessed company of the Prophet (peace be upon him), his family and his companions (peace be upon them) in an everlasting life of joy?
The Hereafter in which Allah promised those who believe and perform righteous actions, many times in the Qur’an, “on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve” (46:13).
I earnestly do wish for this everlasting reward, and I desire the same for you too, my dearest sister. You know as I know that our belief in Allah and His perfect Deen (religion) is followed by action. In the same verse I quoted above Allah says, “Verily, those who say: ‘Our Lord is (only) Allah,’ and thereafter istaqamu, on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve” (46:13).
Istaqamu here meaning those who stood firm and straight on the Islamic faith of Monotheism by abstaining from all kinds of sins and evil deeds which Allah has forbidden and by performing all kinds of good deeds which He has ordained. Our belief is not complete without action. On the Day of Judgment, Allah will bring forth our records and we will see our belief, words and actions. Will they match up? Or we will fall short in this?
Dear sister, I know you have said to yourself and to others, that they are not watchers over you; that they will not be judged along with you on the Day of Judgment. This is indeed true, my beloved sister, but the fact remains that you will be judged. And on that Day, you do not want to fall short or look back at your life and regret that you did not take the steps needed in order to fulfill your obligations, or to come closer to the Pleasure of Allah.
Today, my sister I have a challenge for you: A challenge in which I ask you to do, not for anyone’s sake but Allah’s. Do not do it for your family or your friends; do not do it for me. Do it for yourself and for your Rabb (Lord).
Insha`Allah, on Feb 1st (of each year), we are holding a worldwide event: World Hijab Day. On this day insha`Allah hundreds, we pray thousands of sisters will observe Hijab. Just for one day, we are asking sisters to wear the Hijab and experience it. There will be a worldwide support group. Millions of Muslims behind you and supporting you! At the end of the day, it is upon you and only you to follow through.
I am not asking you for anything more or anything less than to take one small step which in your heart you know will only bring you closer to my Rabb and your Rabb. One step closer to Jannah insha’Allah….
Beloved Sister, I ask you in the name of Allah, will you accept my challenge?
As’salamu `Alaikum, We’re seeking dedicated volunteers from New York City for a WHD event in NYC. If you’re interested to help out, please e-mail: Iamsalmakkhan@gmail.com We’re looking forward to hearing from you. Thank you.

#WorldHijabDay

Charli Main says
I wonder if the non- Hajabi women and non- Muslim sisters would also be happy to show their support their Muslim sisters by having their genitals hacked off ????
[FA] says
This makes me sick to my stomach. There is a simple way for Muslims to foster “religious tolerance”. Stop raping, killing, and oppressing in the name of Islam. Raping our minds and throats with your Islamic practices will not help. Those of us who are literate know the truth about the hijab, niqab, and burqa. In most Muslim countries it is not a choice but mandatory. We have seen what the savages have done to women who dare show themselves. Take your cutesy “hijab day” and try encouraging a day in Saudi Arabia or Iran where women wear Western attire to foster understanding between us.
Walter Sieruk says
With this above article it’s thus worth repeating the information from the Book by Brigitte Gabriel which is entitled THEY MUST BE STOPPED. Which exposes that “Across the Muslim world, even in moderate Islamic countries, women’s rights are almost nonexistent…Women in Islam are considered unclean, deemed inferior even to dirt.”
Jay Boo says
Head Scarf Hell
Islamists impose head scarfs to use for hate.
What is claimed for modesty they bait to discriminate
Head scarfs are harmless and yet lack of them would leave Islamists helpless.
Women everywhere would forget to avert their eyes and drive cars no less.
Jihadists would sooner give up Jihad than live in a world without head scarfs.
In this battle of ideology there is no greater symbol than the head scarf.
It is not just a symbol of modesty to jihadists but their symbolic weapon of choice.
Without head scarfs honor-killings would appear dishonorable.
Islamic clerics would forget to sing their SHARIA SHAM.
“Hijab police” continue to persecute non-Muslims in Muslim majority countries.
Islamic head scarfs are so infidel hunters will know who to segregate and target with their false religion and Sieg Heil hate.
A better idea would be to have a world-wide multi-nation head scarf ban.
Surely, a UN imposed ban on head scarfs in all public spaces is long, long overdue.
PURITY
Head scarfs flaunt a greater purity, Nazi swastikas did this too.
Islamists shout “God is great” like a “Heil Hitler” praise.
Their upturned hands on display, same as a Nazi stiff arm parade.
Prayer rug thugs, like SA brown shirts try to impose their untruth.
Exaggerated bows are as pretentious as Nazi steps like a goose.
Honor killing death squad,
Adolph would be so proud.
Islamic religious police are just Sharia’s godless Gestapo.
Lock-step bootlick lunatics: Ditto
Nazi-Islamism —

I would have liked to see my fav comedians Little Britain use these Canadian school girls, their mothers and teachers, for real and just throw up all over them spewing their vomit in their faces and all over their hijabs …
Jay Boo says
There is a well organized well funded attack on Christian religion in the US.
It has even gone so as to attempt to demonize and paint the Amish as extremists.
But we are on to their shameless tricks.
THE MUSLIM MAFIA
Look out for the ‘Muslim Mafia’ Warn all your neighbors about the ‘Muslim Mafia’
The ‘Muslim Mafia’ cannot be trusted.
Are there Muslims living in your town part of the ‘Muslim Mafia’?
Beware that person in the headscarf might be part of the ‘Muslim Mafia’
Protect the Amish from Muslim inspired smear campaigns.
Wellington says
Any non-Muslim woman or girl wearing the hijab to show solidarity with their “Muslim sisters” functions as a sterling example, a first-rate example, of a useful idiot.
I really do wish that non-Muslim females who don’t see anything wrong with the way Muslim women dress would realize that the claim that this or that sartorial item which is worn by Muslim women for purposes of modesty carries with it the implication that what non-Muslim women wear is immodest. And we know what the Muslim male world thinks of non-Muslim women and what they’re good for.

Hijab (Garbage Bag) Day in Dusseldorf, Germany!!!
http://crossmuslims.blogspot.ca/2011/03/garbage-bagsac-ordures.html
BlueRaven says
“Our mission is to have 1 Million participants on February 1st, 2014 worldwide, insha’Allah!”
There are two phrases the Muslims use over and over again – Allah Akaber and Insha Allah.
My understanding: Allah Akaber means Allah is great ; Insha Allah means Allah willing!
If Allah is so great and he is willing, he would put a hijab on every female infant born. I have never heard of a baby born covered with a hijab – in fact each baby is born absolutely naked – that clearly implies neither Allah is so great or cares or he is willing.
Muslims logic is more warped than a doubly twisted pretzel.

St. Michael Defend Us says
1. I have heard of appliances or devices used for sensitivity training which make the user experience various handicaps- such as blindness, deafness, paralysis, and so forth. So, if we need to don hijab to experience that which the muslim woman experiences, aren’t they admitting that the hijab diminishes and handicaps? Why would we need to “understand” or “show solidarity with” something which would be positive or elevating of the person?
2. Hijab is hypocrisy. Go to any internet hijab sales site and see the bright colors, prints, beads, pearls, lace, and embroidery used to enhance the appearance of the hijab wearer and make her more alluring. Which seems to me to be at odds with the “modesty” and sense of smug superiority of the hijab wearer.
3. Hijab day in February? Why not have it in July or August, so everyone can experience the joy of wearing it in hot, smothering weather?
4. That little Christian girl in the hijab needs to be called names and mocked until she gives up that ridiculous charade. Her parents need to be reporte to social services for child abuse. Their pastor needs to take them aside and explain a few facts of life to them.

U sound like a real fool. It’s so sad. All the senseless rap, murder, molestation, n crime here in the states. Women n female children would be safer if we did cover. Grown women walking around with the same, similar, n most times fast worst clothing than their teenage daughters, sisters, Neices, etc. Infant n toddler girls exploited by their own mother’s thru dumb pagentry. Opening their innocent minds and spirits to selfless idolatry of themselves. As Americans were to free to pay attention to the lewd behaviors that our poor desensitized children have to tolerate. Women, girls, even boys in public with private areas expose, but that’s what make our country and religious system so unique. This is America. The home of the brave, immoral, insensitive, glamorous, n ignorant elite. Keep your mouth closed if u have no better sense. Maybe if a woman was whipped in the streets of America, for being a visual, verbal, social, n corruption to her community n society, we’ll have less pregnancies, familial rape, molestation, n higher educational success. Maybe Americans girls n and Women could discover or return to spiritual n personal pride n appreciation. Maybe our daughter’s could attend school without sleeping with teachers n professors. I don’t mean to sound disrespectful. There’s extremist in every culture n religion. Its unfair to act like it’s just Muslim’s or their society. God commanded women to be Modest, that’s Bible. A woman’s or daughter’s beauty is for her immediate men folk only, until she’s married, not dating, fornication thru a short term or endless engagement. Some extremist have gone to far, God will judge them. At least their men are wise enough to care about the power n weakness the beauty of women bring to a healthy community n potentially good society. Sincerely, disgusted American citizen

1)Sensitivity training, used to make user adapt to physical handicaps or blindness? Let’s see, little babies, toddler girls, teenage girl, young ladies, n adult women, handicapped n blinded into believing, freedom is thru the exploitation of our body parts not our hearts, spirits, minds. Handicapped into thinking stripping, prostitution, n lewd living are optional career choices, and not offensive to their role in their now n future societies. Ur right. The hypocrisy its produced thru sympathy that the western woman have been so molested n degraded that she has to be visually motivated n enticed to take a stand to see herself differently. Is that be the case what hypocrisy we witness in church’s where women look like they’re going to a fashion extravaganza, night club, or some social event for the elite. Yeah, why not have it in July where we can learn, how a real woman covers and protects her neighbors, community, no society, by preferring to be hot than parading around with her g-string, back, breast , belly or stomach out, so all the neighborhood grands, fathers, brothers, n sons can all lust in unity. While she provokes God’s command, do not covet your neighbors wife. All because her parents, or guardians we’re too arrogant n disobedient to observe the Law of God for a healthy society. The Christian girls needs to be mocked for being challenged to protect herself by covering the beauty her add to her innocence when styled inappropriately for her age. Protect herself from going to Church where her duty n service is to be focused on the teachings of Gods ways n plans for her spiritual future not her temporal life in the flesh of this world. She’s already mocked by this degraded society that teaches her to smoke, curse, steal, lie, practice safe sex, oppose to virginity n chasity. No, that’s just too old fashion, and in the old Bible day. u sound really lost. your
chosen says
Your right the Pastor should pull her aside n teach her there aren’t any NEW FACTS OF LIFE, but death, degradation, mental, social, n physical disease. Disease that starts right in church because some Pastors have become more fearful of the people than God. Fearful because pastoring has become an profitable occupation than spiritual conviction. God ways n laws was n will always be universal. He’s not the God of the damn north, south, east, or west, baby. HE’S GOD OF IT ALL. GOD OF ALL CREATION, like it or not. Sadly, n most unfortunate for you, he’s not the God of your opinion. Be enlightened, that u might be blessed.

dumbledoresarmy says
I have a serious suggestion for all Friends of Zion. How about a World “I Stand With the Jews” Day? On that day, all who support the right of the world’s only Jewish state to defend itself against the Jihad, and who oppose, condemn and reject the Jew-hatred that is currently resurgent across the world, much of it coming from Muslims but a lot of it – too much! – also coming from non-Muslims (many of whom have eagerly gobbled up Muslim lies about Jews and about Israel ), will in the course of the day do one or more of the following: display the flag of Israel on their person or on their home or place of business or other institution such as a school or church, and/ or wear or in some other way display the Star of David, or even (in the case of guys) don a kippah for a day (having first contacted their local rabbi to explain what they are doing and why). Not sure what would be the best day to do it on. Perhaps on the anniversary of the declaration of the State of Israel?
People taking part , in a given district or town, could get together and do a *walk* – round a university campus, say.
There could be a mass demonstration outside the UN HQ in New York City.
Note: I have not the faintest idea how one would go about organising something of this kind. I myself wear a Star of David every Saturday (I wear my Christian cross on the other six days of the week), and I recommend the practice to every other non-Jew in the Resistance. But how to organise marches, rallies, etc, I do not know. Still: if there is anyone reading here who *is* a born organiser, and likes my idea: have at it!
chosen says
Not! No one likes it. Is not an idea. An idea is something based on importance, yours weren’t one. That’s why after saying all that spill you opted to ask someone to be bored enough to make it happen. Be first partaker of your own crap. It’s more believable that way. Then u can see how it feels to be a misguided leader of others lost like yourself.

If the hijab is so wonderful and liberating, why aren’t muslime men wearing them?
Christian Beltram says
I hpe that all good people who are not being brainwashed by the politically correct media start observing a No to Islamic Supremacy Day. Such a day if backed up by appropriate actions would let the Jihadists know that good people will not tolerate or accept their tyranny any longer. A No to Islamic Supremacy Day is long overdo.

Today is World Hijab Day!
…………………………………
Isn’t that special? Here are a few fun facts about the Hijab:
Al Jibaly said, “by the age of ten, it becomes an obligation on us to force here to wear Hijab and if she doesn’t wear Hijab, we hit her.”
Hmmmmm….surely he can’t be serious? I mean, no one is forced to wear a Hijab, right? sarc/off

It’s all about freedom, right? So I am looking forward to Nazma Khan organizing World Uncovered Hair Day, in honor of Aqsa Parvez, whose Muslim father choked her to death with her hijab after she refused to wear it…
…………………………………
Yes—the fact is that women all over the Muslim world and beyond are forced to wear the Hijab-mostly Muslimahs, but often Infidels as well.
Probably the most infamous example was Taliban-era Afghanistan, where women were violently forced to immure themselves in Burqas—but this was *hardly* an isolated situation.

Nazma Khan tells us (TEARFULLY) about the persecution she faced due to her hijab and why she started World Hijab Day…

The implication, of course, is that Muslims are threatened and oppressed for wearing the Hijab. This is almost pure projection.

There’s a lot of whitewashing here, but it is still obvious what this is about: pressure and threats from the Ummah against anyone who dares refuse to wear the slave rag.
And how are women who refuse to wear the Hijab regarded by Muslim men? They are *fair game*.
Here’s the infamous Australian Imam who referred to rape victims as “uncovered meat”:
“Australian Muslim leader compares uncovered women to exposed meat”
http://www.theguardian.com/world/2006/oct/26/australia.marktran
“Sheik Hilali was quoted as saying: “If you take out uncovered meat and place it outside … without cover, and the cats come to eat it … whose fault is it, the cats’ or the uncovered meat’s? The uncovered meat is the problem. If she was in her room, in her home, in her hijab…, no problem would have occurred.”
And this is not just the opinion of some fringe Imam down under.
Here is the same situation, half a world away in Scandinavia, where is an epidemic of Muslims raping native Infidels who don’t wear the Hijab:
“To Rape an Unveiled Woman”

I enjoy boycotts but what always seems most effective – reverse boycotts. Especially with a rally with readings of the violent verses of the Quran. Include slides with the wife beating verses and pictures of abused women.
Skiltz1 says
For islamic and other deluded women to cover themselves with a hijab or another vestige of Mesopotamian patriarch brutality like the chador or burka is equivalent to a black slave calling his chains a symbol of his freedom. All of these islamic patriarchal shrouds are a means of transferring the perceived immorality of sexual desire to the woman so as to relieve men of their own “sin” of sexual desire. The same patriarchal component runs through Judaism, which caused Jesus to condemn merely legalistic and formal adherence to the law as relief from sin. “You have heard that it was said in the Law of Moses, ‘thou shall not commit adultery,’ but I say, if any man looks upon a woman with lust, he has already committed adultery in his heart.” Muslim men have found an easy way out of their own corrupt pseudo-morality by transferring their own corrupt desires, as well as the blame for these desires, onto women.
