World Hijab Day Encourages All Women to Wear Veil in Solidarity with Muslims, Says Nothing About Women Brutalized For Not Wearing It

86

Under the hashtag #FreeInHijab, Islamic supremacists and their willing gophers on the left — middle-class Western feminists — are planning another “World Hijab Day.” In one of the most pathetic and destructive displays of virtue signalling, non-Muslim women are once again being urged to wear the garment of oppression, subjugation and misogyny. While women are fighting and dying for their most basic rights, left-wing goons are working to impose the misogyny of the sharia.

No cares if you wear the hijab. No one cares if you wear purple hair, for that matter. The real world recognition day should be in tribute to the women who are forced to wear the hijab, and beaten and/or arrested if they don’t. World Hijab Day is a stunning indictment of the hypocrisy of the evil left, as much as their choice of the sharia-promoting, forced marriage advocate Linda Sarsour for their leader. The real “feminists” are those women in Iran who are risking imprisonment and torture for taking off their hijabs. They are fighting for a fraction, a sliver of the freedoms their Western “sisters” enjoy.

“World Hijab Day Encourages All Women to Wear Veil in Solidarity with Muslims,” by Edwin Mora, Breitbart, December 26, 2018 (thanks to Mark):

The World Hijab Day (WHD) non-profit organization launched its 2019 campaign Wednesday, encouraging women and girls of all faiths, backgrounds, and ethnicities to “voice their choice” of wearing the headscarf for 24 hours on February 1, in solidarity with Muslim women across the world.

“#FreeInHijab is the much-needed hashtag for our current global situation where women in hijab are labeled by media as oppressed and symbolically imprisoned,” Nazma Khan told Turkey’s state-run Anadolu Agency (AA).

“Through this hashtag, women are encouraged to voice their choice of wearing the hijab; thus dispelling common misconceptions,” Khan added.

Each year since its inception in 2013, WHD has invited women to wear a hijab — a headscarf worn by Muslim women — for one day on February 1.

“Perhaps, this one-day experience will make them see the hijab in a different light,” Khan told AA.

“More than 70 global ambassadors from over 45 countries have been involved, and women from around 190 countries participate in the annual event,” Al Jazeera noted last year.

Khan explained that WHD’s 2019 motto is “Breaking Stereotypes, Shattering Boundaries,” noting that the campaign also includes “promoting World Hijab Day both online and offline globally.”

Each year, the non-profit organization prepares for World Hijab Day weeks in advance.

In 2017, WHD became a nonprofit organization focused on fighting discrimination against Muslim women through awareness and education, according to the organization’s official webpage.

Khan has told several news outlets that the hardships she faced growing up in New York City due to her hijab motivated her to establish World Hijab Day.

“I was constantly bullied in middle school and high school. Discrimination took on a different height after 9/11,” she said, referring to the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks in the United States.

She added, “Every day, I would face different challenges just walking on the street; I was chased, spat on, surrounded by goons, called a terrorist, Osama bin Laden, etc.”

Khan described her experience as “devastating,” adding that she did not want anyone else to go through the same thing.

“Therefore, I thought to myself, if I could invite sisters from all faiths and backgrounds to walk in my shoes just for a day, perhaps things would change,” she said.

In 2017, New York state and the House of Commons of the U.K. recognized February 1 as World Hijab Day. The Scottish Parliament and the Philippines have reportedly followed suit.

Khan dismissed accusations that the organization is spreading a political Islam ideology….

Leftists & Muslims have been allied for a century because freedom is the common enemy they seek to kill.

In every leftist there is a masochistic female yearning to be controlled and beaten by a sadistic militant Muslim.

Don’t forget CNN’s imbecilic Erin Burnett trying on a burka and afterward describing the experience as “liberating”. Such mindless, politically correct stupidity is beyond comprehension. There she would have been, shrouded and restricted, to some extent trussed up in this idiotic gear and she described that “liberating”. Only a stark, staring liberal thinks and talks this way.

Many Non-Muhammadist women are forced to wear the Burka or Hijab. Or are forced to undergo the Muhammadist lifelong torture of clitodirectomy.
Or end up in slavery, are killed & raped.
This concept shouldn’t be normed. It’s the same thing with Jesuists who will nag when you’re a conscious atheist.
There have been made many mistakes in politics.
It must be accepted that governance must have ethical fundamentals: truth, justice, love, American English, friendliness, ecology, human rights, global imperialism, freedom from religion & to atheism, healthy food (see DrAxe.com), cultivation of ecological best quality basics, support for self-realisation & the abolition of the unjust Muhammad-law worldwide.

Yes, if understood properly. The triune Father, Son (The Word), and Holy Ghost (Holy Spirit) concept of the One True Living God taught by Jesus the Messiah (Matthew 28:16-20) and reaffirmed by the apostle John (1 John 5) does not contradict the idea that Almighty God is a single entity. The three “persons” of the “trinity” (not a Biblical term) are “one” (also 1 John 5). You might think of the 3 persons of the Godhead as the uniting authority (Father), the truth of God (the Word), and God’s creative and sustaining power (Holy Ghost) which are 3 aspects of the same God. Just as I am one person created in the likeness and image of God, I have a body, a spirit and a soul and yet I am only one person. Jesus said that if you have seen Him you have seen the Father (John 14:8-11). The Book of Acts (chapter 20:28) speaks of the Holy Ghost shedding his blood, showing that Jesus was also the Holy Ghost incarnate. This might be a difficult concept for some to grasp, but to think that Christians believe in 3 separate gods is false.

Any reaction over this provocative outrage has to be done by western women for women because the treatment of women by muslim males as “property” to be disposed of as required is now taking centre stage and begging for a massive correction.

Pictures of the victims of acid attack abound, pictures of murdered western tourists or young muslim girls headless and slain for not wearing the head bag abound too, there are more than enough victims of Islam living in America to call on in order to shame those leftists, will they not answer this challenge ?

This is the basic schizophrenia of modern feminists: they rail against their perceived idea whether real or imagined of the so called “PATRIARCHY” while doing their utmost to embrace true unadulterated patriarchy. These women riot in emotional frenzy if their rights to an abortion at any term of pregnancy up to and including live birth abortions and don’t stop to ponder what their hijab wearing sisters face on that front in a male dominated ideology where men have the right to force women to conceive. These idiots walk around in Hand Maid’s Tale costumes to protest a supreme court nomination and run ads in NYC citing their right to F*CK and then turn around and embrace wearing the hijab from a culture that stones women for talking to a male that’s not a direct relative,why ANYONE should take these women’s hysterically irrational nincompoopery seriously is beyond me.

News flash to all these mental midgets: I’ve always dressed with a certain modesty because that’s how I was raised, but I would be stoned for it by the ideology that demands a woman wear a hijab and being intelligent enough to know that to be the case I would rather take a long walk off a short pier before ever wearing one of those symbols of subjugated slavery.

If denying hijab labeled as oppression is the purpose of the movement, would it be more proper to target those who force hijab wearing in the public? Like in aceh province in indonesia, saudi arabia, iran and other islamic regions or countries. In that way they may convince people so they won’t force women to wear hijab, and after that people wouldn’t be interested in labeling hijab as a oppression. If they only target media or people who never force women to wear hijab in public, how can they convince people that hijab is not a symbol of an oppression when they can see the otherwise from other places? What good does it do?

SO STUPID!!!

Anaksuper Nuakal

Logically to convince people that hijab is not an oppression, they don’t encourage women to wear hijab. THAT IS SO STUPID if they do that.

Imagine when they encourage my girl to wear hijab, and she says: “Hey I’m wearing hijab now after being encouraged, but when am I supposed to know that I’m not forced to wear hijab, so I’ll know that hijab is not a symbol of an oppression?”, what will they say? Are they still going to say that hijab is not an oppression? Where is the proof? Nothing!!!

THOSE MUSLIMS ARE SO FUCK1NG STUPID.

In the course of voluntarily accepting and being the follower of a religion one must also accept the external as well as the internal aspects. As civilization of the world advanced over hundreds of years, so has tenets of religions to meet or stay abreast of emerging acknowledgement of human rights. Religions that have not recognized those elements are now exposed to the main stream population with requirements of special dress or other non westernized customs. Those religions typically have a male dominate core aspect. Women in America have a long history of gaining human rights that were denied them from ancient customs. So it is puzzling why women in America would show “solidarity” to women who, by choice, elect to make their appearance conform with a male dominate religion in a country where women can elect to terminate the life of their own baby.
