Hello there dear sisters and brothers.
I never wore a Purdah before, I only wear Hijab.
After my parents came back from Umrah and they bought a beautiful cloak or we call it as a 'jubah'
It cross in my mind, What does it feels like to wear a Purdah?
Menurut Islam, aurat seorang perempuan adalah seluruh anggota badan kecuali muka dan tapak tangan (pergelangan tangan)
Tak menjadi satu kesalahan untuk memakai atau tidak memakai purdah, terpulang kepada diri masing-masing dan juga mazhab yang kita ikut.
Back to the story, it's quite challenging.
I'm a girl who is a bit tomboy
[I'm a photographer who needs to move everywhere easily so I seldom wear skirts to make it easy I don't dress like a girl]
I went to 'pasar malam' with my dad.
the place was crowded with all walks of life (sweat quite a lot)
People respect me more and they even give me the first priority to walk at the crowded road.
I stop for a while, next to a booth that sells boiled/steam nuts.
The owner of the booth which is a young lady look at me and said
"akak cantik marilah beli kacang." [Pretty lady, come over and buy some nuts]
I know she was trying to flatter me to buy those nuts. but who knows that she actually thinks that those who wear Purdah have an inner beauty?
Dear sisters who wears Purdah out there, I truthfully salute you courage on wearing them for the sake of Allah. You look more beautiful and elegant by wearing the purdah.
I don't have any purdah so I just wear a black shawl and make it into a purdah ^__^
