Everything that Allah made valuable in the world is covered & hard to get to.
Where do u find diamonds?
Deep down in the ground,covered & protected.
Where do u find PearLs?
Deep down at the bottom of the ocean,covered up & protected in
a beautiful shell.
Where do u find GoLD?
Way down in the mine,covered over with layers and layers of rock.
Muslim women are far more precious than diamonds & pearls,
&
They should be covered Too....
They say, "Oh, poor girl, you're so beautiful you know.
It's a shame that you cover up your beauty so."
She just smiles and graciously responds reassuringly,
"This beauty that I have is just one simple part of me.
This body that I have, no stranger has the right to see.
These long clothes, this shawl I wear, ensure my modesty.
Faith is more essential than fashion, wouldn't you agree?"
They tell her, "Girl, don't you know this is the West and you
are free? You don't need to be oppressed, ashamed of your
femininity."
She just shakes her head and she speaks so assuredly,
"See the bill-boards and the magazines that line the check-out
isles, with their phony painted faces and their air-brushed
smiles? Well their sheer clothes and low cut gowns they are
really not for me.You call it freedom, I call it anarchy."
This hijab,
This mark of piety,
Is an act of faith, a symbol,
For all the world to see.
A simple cloth, to protect her dignity.
So lift the veil from your heart to see the heart of purity.
Lift the veil from your heart and seek the heart of purity.
