I never felt at peace when wearing a hijab. Instead, I felt incredible pressure. My family said my father wouldn’t go to heaven because I refused to wear a hijab. The punishment for not wearing a head covering made me terrified and restless.
There are differing views regarding a Muslim woman’s obligation to wear a hijab. Many Muslim women fear they will go to hell if they don’t wear one. But I found that wearing a hijab is not the way to purify our hearts from sin. It’s also not the way to go to heaven.
I have finally experienced true peace in my heart. Watch this video to hear my story and to find the way to keep our hearts pure from sin.

The Bible says don’t judge by the outer appearance. People judge by their looks including you and me, but the Lord looks into their hearts.
David’s older brother thought he should had be chosen because he was big and strong, but David was chosen and later he killed a giant.

Dear Iqra,
That’s right. God’s judgment is just and righteous because He sees the motives of people’s hearts.
“But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.” (1 Samuel 16:7 KJV)
“Every way of a man is right in his own eyes: But the LORD pondereth the hearts.” (Proverbs 21:2 KJV)
