Who is she behind her veil? An oppressed, sad lady following the cultural laws to survive? We see the whole world trying to help Muslim woman get out of the prison of hijab, right? If a woman wears her veil for the right reasons, it is completely a different story. She feels liberated, confident, comfortable, strong and happy. The happiness and comfort level increases as her love for her Lord increases, and how does that happen? Through knowledge.

As the moon diminishes little by little every night our hearts ache to think Ramadan is leaving us way too soon. As we approach the remaining days of this beautiful month I would like to remind myself and other Muslimahs to keep trying because Allah is definitely seeing our efforts. We cannot keep aside our responsibilities, our families and unexpected stuff that come in between. "Not a leaf falls but that He knows it." " (6:59) then what makes us think Allah doesn't know our situation. We are exactly where Allah want us to be. With Allah's help we can do much more than we think we can.
