Dear Parent/Guardians,
The Years 11 and 12 students of Religion spent time during their class to create innovative and clever activities for World Hijab Day. Below are a few examples of the work from Years 11 and 12 students:
Fatima bint Muhammed Al- Fihriyya was the Muslim woman who was known for founding the first university, University of al-Qarawiyyin, which has the Guinness world record for oldest higher education institute. She was born approx. 800AD in Tunisia. Using the money she inherited from her father, her and her sister built the mosques which were later converted to mosques.
By Omar Eldib
The girl who always sits next to me always wears a hijab so fine…
She looks so much more elegant, than this uncovered head of mine… Why do I think so? because hijabs are like crowns…
So the girl next to me wears one, and if I did too, I will not need to frown.
So I started wearing one too… Say! How neat do I look!
Now that I am also wearing a crown, I notice people smile and look.
By Fatima Eldabdab
THE HIJAB
Muslim women wear the veil
It’s a hijab & it will prevail
The ones who refuse show betrayal
It is a sign of arrogance and neglect
But some show their lord respect
Don’t say that they are oppressed
For Allah they tend to fear and obey
so let’s celebrate World Hijab Day today
By Yasmine Abdou
Hijab is my crown shaped in a circle around my head like that of a full moon bringing light from the One who has commanded me to wear it to my face
Hijab is my crown shaped in a circle around my head like a merry-go-round rotating with a joyful force in places near and far illuminating its power a reflection of my soul and inner beauty
Hijab is my crown shaped in a circle around my head the way whirling dervishes move we're so high aspiring nearness to Allah Masha'Allah, our act of wearing hijab daily deserving of much respect and Insha Allah The Seventh Heaven
Hijab is my crown shaped in a circle around my head like a spinning wheel many made in different colors and in different textures each brightening the world and when wearing it like Khadijah (AS), Fatimah (AS), and Aisha (RA) attracts attention of the best kind
Hijab is my crown shaped in a circle around my head like Big Ben I'm so high dignified a visible ambassador of Islam saying no to immodesty and saying yes to our Majesty
Hijab is my crown shaped in a circle around my head like a halo starting my day with Bismillah and looking into the mirror to carefully donn it I remember I'm doing this to help men married and unmarried from sinning and to protect myself from impurity and immoral acts as Hijab is my crown for me a Queen

HIJAB (By Pari Tawfi)
People say oppression but I say NO!
They make assumptions without any facts
My hijab is my love
making me different
One of a kind.
Representing the religion of peace
Representing the religion of love
My hijab is for ME!!!
