Do you believe hijabs are becoming a fashion-trend instead of a religious obligation?

Salam, I'm not here to judge anyone or their way of dressing, but it seems as though the hijab is becoming fashionable in different styles and patterns. There isn't a certain color code for hijab, but isn't there a boundary line for modesty.

*Personally, I think that hijabs should be simple because Allah(swt) wanted muslim women to be protected from society and men's lust upon women. In example: the time of ignorance
-We can see different cultures making hijab into something lavishing and funky. Where is the sense of modesty?

I commend my hijabi wearing muslimahs..because I myself is one and understand that sometimes wearing a hijab can be hard, but i wear it for Allah and Allah alone.

If we are trying to get attention from people and attract men's eyes then how are we any different from girls without hijab? I'm not saying girls with stylish hijabs don't have eman...modesty is just part of who we are and it shows people that we demand respect!!
 
you know, on the one hand agree with you. And the whole hijabi with 2 lbs of makeup, skinny jeans and knee boots... o_O

But on the other hand, in world where people don't even pretend to care about religion, where people are constantly judged, where one sees people expressing themselves left and right and you're required to conform...I think it's rather harmless. I think to myself, she's doing all she can right now. There are more important things to worry about than sequins on a scarf, you know?

ugh not cavedust again! so annoying!

anyway........ i agree with you! tho if the hijab is so shiny and glittery that it's blinding I don't think it should be considered hijab. It would be attracting more stares then your hair would!
i go to college and I see and hear some things........ wow! somegirls claim they wear hijab and all but they let their bangs show. mashallah! *sarcastic*
the other day I heard a girl say she was thinking about wearing hijab because she thinks it makes her look HOT! (???!!!!!)
subhanallah!

Unless your half naked or wearing tight clothing and wearing a hijab then, no. Fashion Statements these days consist of little or no clothing. I see nothing wrong with pretty or colorful hijab. Women who wear hijab are limited to a lenghth of fabric, so that lenghth of fabric should be whatever they like. Wearing hijab shouldn't have to mean looking like a ninja all the time. LOL.
