We asked 4 Muslim women what their hijab means to them—here’s what they have to say!

Every year, on February 1st, World Hijab Day is celebrated around the world as a day of recognition, understanding, and solidarity. It is a time to honor the millions of Muslim women who wear the hijab as a symbol of faith, identity, and empowerment.
At Al-Furqaan Foundation, our female staff members bring their unique perspectives and experiences to the table, shaping our mission with their dedication and passion. In honor of World Hijab Day, we are sharing their voices—their journeys with the hijab, the challenges they’ve faced, and the strength they’ve found in embracing it.
