The Reason why i wear Jilbab

Almost 2 years, i have worn jilbab. The first time i wore jilbab was on 31st March 2008. At that time, when i first wore jilbab, everybody was surprised. Especially my classmates. Because i wore my first jilbab when i had an Artificial Intelligence’s Class at 7 am. I was late at that time. Then i entered the class with my new look. My lecturer and my classmates were surprised. Why?it’s because of my intensive care to my hair. I have a long black thick straight beautiful hair. I used to go to salon twice a month for taking care my hair. Creambath, hair spa, hair mask, hair cut, and hair do. But i have never colored my hair, and straighten my hair. Because i don’t wanna make a damage on my hair. I love my hair for what it is. And before i wore jilbab, i used to wear hot pants, tank top, dress, sexy gown, mini skirt. Oh la la, that’s no wonder why everybody was surprised when i wore jilbab. Even one of my friend said to me when i first wore jilbab, “yah,, oci.. koq lo tutup siy rambut lo. Kan gw ga bisa liat rambut lo yg bagus itu” then i replied him, “emang rambut gw buat lo apa?wkwkwk” hehehe

Actually a year before i wore jilbab, i thirsted for wearing jilbab. But i confused. Until more than 3 successive nights i dreamt about wearing jilbab. And i was hearing a sound that told me that all muslimah have to wear jilbab. Initially i ignored it. Then at the night i dreamt about it again and again. After that i felt no, it’s not an ordinary dream. But i thought it’s a sign. It’s a sign that i got “hidayah“. Then on the morning, i took my jilbab from cupboard, and i wore it.

I know and i realize that wearing jilbab is not easy. It’s hard and difficult. I myself have proved it hard and so difficult. When the first wore jilbab, i had no problem. But then i had so many temptations. The temptations did made me wonder, tantalized, and bothered me. I was shaky, and unstable. But alhamdulillah i could overcome it.

After wearing jilbab, it seriously that Allah always makes my life easier. Started when i did my final assignment, and i could easily graduate from college faster than it should be, than i have my great job now, and it happens to my other personal life. Allah always helps me, and makes everything easier for me. Besides that, i feel more comfortable now, and i can feel the tranquility.

So, don’t be afraid for wearing jilbab. Believe it, you will not be worse with your jilbab. Even you will be more beautiful inside and outside. Besides that it’s useful for our health. I hope i can keep being istiqomah and keep the hidayah. Aamiin;)
