Many Muslim women get disgrunted when they see a little girl in hijab, but most should realize that if a child shows interest in it and WANTS to wear it, by no means should we steer them away. That is part of their Islamic training. Even my little girl who is ONE YEARS OLD wants to get up under my one-piece prayer dress and delights herself in getting out my hijabs from a floor bin and wearing them around the house, or blankets, LOL.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32212161.post-32611641047602797892009-05-07T23:18:00.000-04:002009-05-07T23:18:00.000-04:00I used to love visting my Somali friends in the hi...I used to love visting my Somali friends in the high rise on Saturdays and seeing all the little girls in their hijabs coming home from Quran school. I agree that you need to teach standards to your kids from a young age, while still allowing them to be kids. Teaching girls to cover for learning Quran and the masjid is a good step.Stacy K. https://www.blogger.com/profile/06853574441003653244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32212161.post-90186760328922696132009-05-02T15:30:00.000-04:002009-05-02T15:30:00.000-04:00Yes yes YES, wonderful post Safiyyah! My daughters...Yes yes YES, wonderful post Safiyyah! My daughters all wear hijab and are very conscious of covering their arms and legs, right down to the 4 year olds, maashaAllah. And the cool part is that we haven't told them they have to, but they have picked it up I guess from seeing me and other muslim women. I hear them checking each others clothing sometimes making sure they are covered, and they know why they cover. I'll hear them say things like "you can't take your hijab off in front of boys" and I see them take care to put on pants underneath their skirts that are not ankle-length. The oldest is 7. I hope Allah keeps them this way as they grow into young ladies, inshaAllah.Muminahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11911728220034451195noreply@blogger.com
