:: headscarf issues ::

.its like as if the world's issue on muslim womean donning headscarves are not enough. even among muslims have dis issue about muslim women donning the headscarves. whats wrong wit people.

.i remembered an outing once - during my 'jahiliah' days. i brought a vietnamese kid out to meet jup's frens and one of the d girls was wearing the scarf. she asked openly to everyone as to why muslim women cover their heads. i couldnt answer coz i dont know. in my head, it was a complicated answer that if i were to convey it to the viet kid, she wont understand thus i could be misleading. therefore i shut my trap. watever i answer can be directed back at me, so i stay silent. even my muslim sister did not answer. so the poor viet kid was left clueless.

.now if someone were to ask me dat, i'm pretty certain of the answers. the only thing is i hv to be tactful upon answering.

.now the reason dis issue is being brought up here is about how quick a person can be to judge another by their appearance.

.i admit i wear a scarf. but never would i admit dat i'm a good person. i will never in my life admit i'm now pious and so-called angelic jus because i wear d scarf. even if my frens were to hear me say such things, they'll know dats a joke. *lol* reason i wore (& still wearing) the scarf is probably d same reason that some of our scarf-donning muslim sisters do so. so, i find no biggie. i dont do it to make jup & my in-laws happy - like some have assumed.

.i heard people say somethin like, 'deni pakai je tudung tapi perangai buruk.' if that kinda remark were meant for me, i'll laugh. i can even show to these people how 'buruk' my perangai can be. i dont care. coz watever it is, its my life. its between me & The CREATOR. it has got nothing to do wit others. when i die, i'll be buried alone. y? u wanna die wit me is it? how sweet. but i believe before any word of nonsense is being let out from one's mouth, one has got to look in the mirror first. 'so u say things about me, i assume u think u're better than me? is dat right?' i dont think i'm perfect - nobody's perfect, right? come on... i'm sure you folks know without having me to tell you.

.reason y i dont admit i'm a good (or go between the lines like wishing people - aku doakan kan kau etc.) person is clear. i'm NOT!. *lol* betul pe. i dont go around preaching to people yet i go cafe del mar without my headgear. if dat's d case, i'll be inviting gossip. right or not? then i cannot finger the blame on anyone else except for me should i happen not to like about wat has been said about me.
