Confused about headscarves in Islam? No worries! Let’s break down the three most common:
Hijab:
| Think of it as a headscarf covering hair and neck. It’s about modesty and expressing faith.
Worn by many Muslim women, not just in India but globally. |
 |
Niqab:
| This one covers the entire face except the eyes. It’s also about faith and modesty.
But chosen by fewer women compared to the hijab. Think of it as a personal choice, not a rule. |
 |
Burqa:
| Now, this covers the whole body, head to toe, with a mesh screen for vision. It’s less common in India and worn for various reasons, cultural and religious.
Remember, judging someone based on what they wear isn’t cool! |
