The
writer is an outspoken feminist and an observant. First, she quoted Quran
verses and then she made a confession in her writing explaining how and when
she started covering his head, Hijab and when he started doing veil. The writer
clearly described the norms in our society that what people think for being a
girl who veil or do hijab. Writer described her interest and girl talk and what
actually the girl talk is. She described that her choice of girl talk was the
reward for taking the religious responsibility. Then writer explain the modesty
of the veil. That it allows her to be seen as a whole person instead of pieces
of chicken in dinner. Many American think that veil is oppression tool that is
forcefully emphasized on Muslim girls. But it is actually the choice of every
woman herself and Islam is not specifying it.
“The
people who spend millions on beauty products, plastic surgery and self-help
guide is the same one that takes pity on me for being helpless and oppressed” -Page

This population is spending millions on beauty
parlous, and plastic surgery it is the same one that takes pity on being for
being helpless. Their idea of freedom involves a complicated hairstyle and tons
of makeup and jeans on. This is something that writer found out to be more
oppressive and caging. Writer said that her parents have a healthy
understanding of Islam. Writer then described her interaction with opposite
gender in her high school that how she gets involve and what at that time was
the need, as every girl want and dream about attention and care. The veil
bestowed some other experiences on the life of the writer that are not
categorized as negative. Muslim girls traditionally do not tend to display
their body it doesn’t mean that Muslim girls do not value themselves as human
being. Their degree of modesty is quite high. The value of Muslim women that is
placed on their body under their covering is quite high. In Arab’s society
being swatches to so many clothes are the sign of their status. Writer said
that she understands that woman enjoy the process of beauty and I see there is
no harm thing that or indulging in such thing with a reason. Americans girls are
giving hours to get ready just for a stranger but they do not give such effort
for someone who seem then in intimate settings. The dresses of Muslim girls
demonstrate wide range of interpretations of modesty. Wearing a jilbab in high
school made me think that I do not need to send a lot of effort for worrying
about fashion and trends. I though wear jeans and long-sleeved shirt and wear
hijab to cover my hair too. Abaya is my one strict interpretation of modesty.
Heart of doing hijab is personal freedom. It made me get through different
phases and pass from streets with no self-loathing, or the sexual harassment.
No one should get suffer for what they look like or what sort of dress they
wear.

to liver her life away from the shadow of her best friend to feel responsible
for her own self. At the moment they set off to a journey they were planning
for a long time Elena took the chance to say it out when they reached the top
of the mountain.
She
took a shelter of her mother not allowing but ephanle knew that something else
was the matter so she insisted her to feel the same thing she has been feeling

these friends can come slide on your heart and make you feel trouble and the
worst part is you won’t have anyone reaching out to after It all ends.
