🔻Dear Ms. Paula Di Bello, a psychologist from Uruguay who embraced Islam five years ago, says: "I was 23 when I saw a veiled woman for the first time. My heart was paralyzed. I immediately understood its essence. This woman was a queen who challenged everything. She was free from the influences of fashion and attached no importance to conforming to the masses. That image stayed with me for years. Until ten years later, I embraced Islam myself.

I started wearing the hijab, and from the very first moment, I felt its benefits. The hijab is not just covering the hair; it encompasses modesty as well. Only after experiencing it did I realize that my hijab gives me an identity as a Muslim, a believer, and a respectable woman. The hijab protects me not only from the eyes of men but also from anyone who might evaluate me based on anything other than capability, intellect, and heart.

⏪It's strange how the perception of unveiled Western women towards veiled women is so beautiful. Meanwhile, in our country, some teenage girls, with fantasy notions, seek a failed Western model.
