There is much confusion and dispute among Muslims and non-Muslims about the status of the niqab (face veil). The intent of this webinar is to dispel myths regarding the face veil. Is it oppression? Is banning it a breach of freedom of rights? Is it mandatory to wear in Islamic law? All this and more!
Come and Learn:
What is Niqab
The origins of Niqab
Criticisms against Niqab
How does one's life change when they start wearing Niqab
How should one deal with sisters who wear Niqab - Muslim and non-Muslim perspective
Political enforcement and/or banning of Niqab
Hebah is a Muslim American with a Masters Degree in Mechanical Engineering. She was born in Chattanooga, Tennessee to Egyptian immigrants. Hebah is a social activist who works to dispel the myths about Islam and Women in Islam through community presentations and panel discussions.

BarakaAllah feeki for such an insightful webinar. As a sister who has been considering niqaab for some time now I found Hebah's practical advice very beneficial.
Was this recorded? I missed it and am hoping it will be available.....
Please let us know if the recording will be available. I have registered several times but there was no response or reminder for the event. I live in a different time zone and it was not possible for me to attend the event live. Please help / respond. Jazakumullahu khayran.
Asalaam alaikum wa rahmatullah wa barakatuhu
Very informative and well researched presentation, nicely presented. Masha'Allah, Sr. Hebah is doing this for a section of the Ummah that is usually overlooked. Whether we recognize niqab as fard or mustahab, whether we practice it or not, but knowing that it is part of the deen is very important. Sr. Hebah succeeded at explaining that beautifully. We all can be at different levels in our Emaan and practice of deen, but we have to be very careful about our lack of knowledge and understanding and how we spread the same. We are accountable for our words. May Allah help us and forgive us. That alone should make us wary about what we say and to whom we say it. In the USA we are fortunate, but also at a disadvantage that most of the Muslim leadership is lacking in scholarship. May Allah reward Sr. Hebah for her efforts done for Allah's sake alone and continue to guide us all upon His Straight Path.
p.s. I was wondering if there is anyway we can e-mail Sr. Hebah with questions, insha'Allah?
Just because someone has a niqab doesn't make them better as a Muslim.
salaam, i missed this webnar....please let us know when it's available InshaAllah.
Who said someone wearing a niqab is better than the one who is not? We're all Muslims and everyone has their own trials and challenges they face, we should all do the best that we can. No one has the right to look down on anybody no matter if they're wearing Hijab, Niqab or none, in other words a Muslim should never be arrogant;...we should only remind each other of Allah's commandments and laws and leave the rest up to Allah.
