World Hijab Day - February 1

Muslims women wear several types of clothing around the world. They wear these covers to protect their modesty. They also wear them because they feel it helps them avoid male harassment. The hijab is one of several types of clothing that most Muslim women wear. (Meneh and the Indonesian province of Aceh are the only Muslim women who are required to wear a hijab.)

A hijab is a type of headscarf that also covers the neck. Despite the fact that it looks like a headscarf, the word "hijab" actually means "curtain" or partition." Hijabs come in a variety of styles and colors, making them fun to wear. When women are in the presence of men who are not a part of their immediate family, they usually only need to wear a hijab. Some Muslim women opt for a hijab because they believe it promotes cultural unity. Others wear it because their faith commands them to do so. Others wear it because their faith encourages them to do so.
