On a final note, positive note is what do you say to someone who is

00:00:05 --> 00:00:09

on the fence? They want to do it, they feel it in their heart. But

00:00:09 --> 00:00:12

they're nervous. They're afraid. How are my friends dinner tower,

00:00:12 --> 00:00:15

my family going to react? What advice do you have for those

00:00:15 --> 00:00:18

people beautiful Michelle, just like you're looking at. And, you

00:00:18 --> 00:00:21

know, as I mentioned, we may have people here who are in those

00:00:21 --> 00:00:26

crossroads and kind of not sure. It's part of, you know, life that

00:00:26 --> 00:00:29

we're going to be faced with choices and every situation,

00:00:29 --> 00:00:32

right, we're always at a crossroads of something. But when

00:00:32 --> 00:00:37

it comes to what will propel you or draw you closer to Allah

00:00:37 --> 00:00:40

subhana, WA, tada, you have to kind of, you know, start thinking

00:00:40 --> 00:00:43

that that should the answer of that choice should be pretty

00:00:43 --> 00:00:47

simple, right? And hijab is one definite way that we draw near to

00:00:47 --> 00:00:52

Allah subhana that because any action where we obey, Allah draws

00:00:52 --> 00:00:55

us closer to him, right? But as I said, it might be a matter of time

00:00:55 --> 00:00:59

for you, of when to do that. So you want to, you know, pace

00:00:59 --> 00:01:03

yourself, but just make a lot of dA. I'm always telling people,

00:01:03 --> 00:01:06

like, if you're really, really confused about something, where's

00:01:06 --> 00:01:09

the istikhara? Where's the tahajjud? Get up and cry to Allah

00:01:09 --> 00:01:14

subhanaw taala really show the sincerity of the crisis you're in

00:01:14 --> 00:01:17

or the confusion you're in. And watch what happens. Because when

00:01:17 --> 00:01:21

you do that sincerely, like you're confused, ALLAH SubhanA will start

00:01:21 --> 00:01:25

to make things very easy for you. He'll make it very obvious for

00:01:25 --> 00:01:27

you. And all of a sudden, you'll realize you know what, this is,

00:01:27 --> 00:01:33

this just feels right. And also, this is a follow up to that. Don't

00:01:33 --> 00:01:37

look at hijab as something you either have to wear permanently or

00:01:37 --> 00:01:42

never wear at all. Please don't do that. Because for some people like

00:01:42 --> 00:01:46

prayer, it comes incrementally. So some people start praying like

00:01:46 --> 00:01:50

Fajr, and Asia, and then they add on the HUD offset, and some people

00:01:51 --> 00:01:55

do all five at once, with the hijab, the best thing to do, and I

00:01:55 --> 00:01:58

actually learned this from one of my closest friends who for years,

00:01:58 --> 00:02:01

everybody thought she was a hijab, but she wasn't. What she did is

00:02:01 --> 00:02:06

she wore it most of the time, in places where she felt very

00:02:06 --> 00:02:11

supported to wear hijab. And she became a hijab, you get it,

00:02:11 --> 00:02:16

because as she wore it more and more like to the grocery store to

00:02:16 --> 00:02:20

Trader Joe's to, you know, the gym, to the doctor's office, the

00:02:20 --> 00:02:24

identity of becoming a hijab, he became one with her identity, but

00:02:24 --> 00:02:26

she didn't have this rule that said, Oh, I have to wear it, or I

00:02:26 --> 00:02:30

don't. And I think that is a very detrimental message that women

00:02:30 --> 00:02:33

get, because you would never tell someone who's struggling with

00:02:33 --> 00:02:36

their prayer. You can't pray any of the prayers until you pray all

00:02:36 --> 00:02:41

five would you do that? Of course not. You would say pray make, you

00:02:41 --> 00:02:45

know make the best effort possible. And in sha Allah in your

00:02:45 --> 00:02:48

prayer and then the action of doing your prayer consistently.

00:02:48 --> 00:02:51

Allah subhana will then begin to facilitate for you and next thing

00:02:51 --> 00:02:54

you know you'll be praying all your prayers Same with the jab. So

00:02:54 --> 00:02:58

where it like to the masjid where it to gatherings of, you know,

00:02:58 --> 00:03:02

where you feel supported, where to places where you feel safe, wear

00:03:02 --> 00:03:08

it in the car, if you can just become infused with the hijab so

00:03:08 --> 00:03:12

that one day you wear it and you don't ever take it off inshallah I

00:03:12 --> 00:03:13

mean eventually but you know what I mean?

00:03:15 --> 00:03:20
