International Hijab Solidarity Day In 4 September
Eight years ago, Muslim leaders across Europe held a conference in London, England. Attended by 300 delegates from 102 organizations as well as international scholars, such as Sheikh Yusuf Qaradawi, the conference was held to support the hijab, as a reaction to the French government's decision to ban headscarves in educational institutions and public institutions.
The conference resulted in the decision to form the Assembly for the Protection of Hijab (Council for the Protection of Hijab) and declared on 4 September as International Hijab Solidarity Day (International Hijab Solidarity Day).
In fact, in addition to French, there are a number of other states also ban the veil. But Muslim women who choose to maintain a commitment to the Islamic hijab meskijuga with various risks it faces.
Belgium became the second European country after France banned headscarves. The country's government to make new provision banning the wearing of headscarves in public schools. Shortly after the ban was announced in October 2011, hundreds of Muslim youth staged a demonstration in Brussels, capital of Belgium, opposed the ban on wearing hijab.
In Uzbekistan, the hijab ban is still enforced. Prohibition since 2008 that tightened the first quarter of this year. In fact, people who get caught selling the veil in the markets was also threatened with fines and confiscated products.
In addition to the ban by the government, the challenge of wearing the veil also comes from corporate institutions, schools or individuals. Not a few Muslim women who are victims of Islamophobia like that.
One is Marwa El-Sharbini. He is a descendant of the Egyptian Muslim who lives in Germany. Because wearing a hijab, pharmacist born October 7, 1977 it was called "terrorists" by Alex W., a resident of Germany Russian descent. Marwa filed a lawsuit to the court for the insult. When the trial was held on July 1, 2009 in Dresden, Alex stabbed Marwa. The medical team was able to save Marwa. He also became a martyr in the day. Media Egyptians angry over the incident, and they gave the title to Marwa as the "headscarf martyr." Furthermore, July 1 is celebrated as International Hijab Day.
In Indonesia, in our beloved country, the challenge of wearing the hijab is relatively mild. Meskijuga there are a number of cases headscarf ban by certain parties, such as the case of Geeta International School, a number of companies and hospitals, these cases could be resolved after sticking it to the public.
So with that freedom there is, what else is off, my Muslim sister, for wearing the hijab? Is not the government never put you wear hijab?
Maybe you said, when you're able to guidance. Is not the guidance God has called you? stay thou wilt receive guidance it or postpone it. And who guarantees your age when you procrastinate welcome guidance that?
Maybe you said, if I were to wear the hijab, then hard work? Is not Allah the Almighty Giver of sustenance? And now the government does not prohibit civil servants who wear the hijab. also, so many companies and educational institutions that allow their employees to wear headscarves. Especially if you are a Muslim or a self-employed entrepreneur without leaving the house, you are free to determine the rules.
Maybe you answered the important heart "who wears the veil" Is not a heart sign "wearing hijab", a good heart, is obeyed His commandments? One of them is a veil. No need to wait for a new perfect Muslim who wears the hijab, but wearing jilbablah and gradually we improve the quality of ourselves and our morals. Insha Alloh, we will invite obedience goodness next.
