The thing with starting to do Pardah is for a few initial years, you WILL feel awkward. Amongst family, relatives, acquaintances...there is going to be this thought in your mind that "oh, what would they think?" or "do I look abnormal"

Many would call you "over" for being covered when most of them choose not to (especially in family gatherings) Many will ask you to remove it giving excuses...but always. ALWAYS remember why you started off doing it. For pleasing Allah subhanahuwata'ala. And pleasing Allah subhanahuwata'ala may or may not please the creation, shaytan will try make you feel "odd one out" but it's better to be odd one out actually. So, don't give in to such intrusive thoughts. You're doing a great job. Alhamdulillah.

Secondly, a practical tip I can give you is, have a homie jilbab. Which is always somewhere nearby you, something you can grab on quickly...so whenever someone comes, you can wear it as one would wear dupatta. In the beginning people will look sceptical about your attire but eventually it gets better...once they realise it's who you are. In Sha Allah.

If you can read Urdu, read the book Jannat Kay Pattay by Nemrah Ahmed. That book will give you a thrilling clarity on Hijab. In Sha Allah.

Foggy autumn around my home. I have been waiting all year for this! 🍂🍁
