Should I be worried about leaving the house? My non-hijabi best friend is begging me to take of my hijab to stay safe, every Muslim woman is being told to only leave the house if necessary and if she has to leave the house she is to take a man with her to keep her safe, I will NOT be held hostage in my own home because some mentally deranged ass hole has taken Lindt Caffe hostage, I will not be terrified to walk the streets I was brought up in because some ass eating fear monger 'might attack' me. I WILL walk with my head *HIJAB* held high and a smile on my face. And I swear to you, if you try something then I will crack your head on the pavement. I will not tolerate your terrorist actions. IS is not ISLAM. IS does NOT represent Islam. ISLAM IS PERFECT BUT MUSLIMS ARE NOT. Do not Judge my perfect, beautiful and peaceful way of life based on my human imperfections.
