Salam aleikum brothers and sisters. I'm a married 23F and i have a one year old son. I pray my 5 prayers as best as i can (i have times where i struggle with fajr because i have anemia) and i also had struggles with ramadan this year because of the anemia, but i always try to do my best for my religion. I converted 5 years ago. I have always feared to wear the hijab. I try to compensate by always wearing my hair in a bun outside and my clothes apart from my jeans are loose, my behind is also covered. I never wear tshirts outside, etc etc. Recently the hijab thing has become a serious issue in my marriage. Just thinking about wearing one makes me cry. I live in the west and have a very difficult mindset in my family regarding this. Especially with ISIS and a few terroristic attacks that have happened here in the last few years where alot of people died, had definitely not helped the prejudice my family has with islam and hijab.
Is it true that for women who are fearful of being harassed or otherwise bothered can elect to not wear the hijab? It's not that i would never wear it, i just can't right now, and the thought that my husband had set a time and date on it makes me feel like less of a human being, it makes me feel like as a women i'm worthless that my husband can just demand whatever he pleases. I know he is being understanding as well, but he insists on it alot and it made me kind of resentfull of the religion in the past few months astaghfirullah as he makes me feel like men are superior. He told me that no good muslim man would want a wife without hijab. I would like to hear the rulings about hijab and about a situation like this. Thanks in advance.
