Hijab wedding?

muta asked:


I live in France and am planning on going back to the states for my sister’s wedding. She does not want me to attend the wedding in my hijab.
At first she said I could not even come with it on. Then she said it was my choice but she preferred I took it off.
My plan was to compromise. I won’t wear all black, abaya and huge veil. I will wear something in color, and try to find some dress that is very very modest, stylish, with a veil to match.
Then my mom on the phone said again, ‘she’s really hoping you come in normal clothes.’
I’m getting very upset about this. Even having bad dreams about my family and how closed minded they are. I will not take it off. Should I just not go to the wedding and risk breaking familial ties (that’s haram!) or just go with my veil and endure the abuse my family is going to dole out?
For the first answer, I will tell you now that I am not implying other women who don’t veil as ‘sluts’ per se. Don’t be simplistic. I may think they do not have a clear conception of human nature, but I am not so ignorant as to think they are promiscuous..
don’t be simplistic in your thinking…
If you don’t erase that huge anti-islam rant from this thread, i will report you.

I’m getting married but my mom refuses to pay for it?

Nola is nice (trust me!) asked:


What do I do now? She doesn’t want me to marry my fiance because he doesn’t have a good enough job. So She says she won’t pay for the wedding yet I know she has the money for me to have my dream wedding because when my dad died she got a lot of money from his insurance policy and put some in a savings bond a long time ago and said it was for my wedding one day. I know it still exists because I’ve seen it but she won’t let me use it. And I know legally I can’t get it because my name is nowhere on it. But I was really depending on her to pay for the wedding because I really can’t afford a big wedding since I’m a senior in college and I graduate in May and I was planning on getting married in June or July. I offered to let her pay for it and I’ll pay her back but she said no because she doesn’t want me marrying him and thinks I should consider someone more well off! What am I going to do? Right now, I can’t even afford to buy a dress!
