Golden hour ✨ Thank you for this cute slogan sweatshirt! 💓

Embracing modest dress code can be challenging. Some women get seriously discouraged by the amount of negative feedback they begin to receive. But you should always keep your focus on why you embarked on this path in a first place. If it’s not about pleasing people, then their opinion truly shouldn’t matter. Keep on doing YOUR thing, sis, and may God bless you for all your efforts! xoxo Daria @ Laguna Beach, California

Modeling for . ✨

I bet you’re wearing your sweats right now and scrolling through IG thinking, “Corona doesn’t seem to be over any time soon. I’m just going to be wearing sweats for the rest of the year..”

If anything I’ve learnt when it comes to shopping for fancy outfits: if you encounter a good one that you really like, purchase it right away. Buy them when you think you don’t need them. Haha! Because when you do end up needing them and, trust me, you will, you won’t be able to find anything. 💯 I can’t even express how many times I went crazy over looking for a dress to wear for Eid or a wedding and wasn’t able to find anything decent. But when I’m out shopping for a pair of jeans and nothing specific, I can see pretty gowns everywhere. CAN YOU RELATE?! 😝

With that being said, get your hands on this stunning 2 piece set gown while it still can be found on website. (LaMeera VIP Glitter Kaftan in Champagne Gold). You’re welcome. 😘✨

Salam Alaykum everyone!! I’m here, I’m back. It’s been quite a journey these past couple of weeks. After being quarantined and social distancing myself for over 6 months due to Covid-19, I did the unthinkable, I traveled across the country all the way to Detroit, Michigan, to compete at the Miss Muslimah USA 2020 pageant.

I knew that the pandemic is still on, I knew the risks that I was taking were high. Four airplanes, three airports, I kept sanitizing my hands like crazy, kept my mask on the entire time of travel, even though it doesn’t protect you from getting the virus. But I knew that our community needs this like never before.

I gave my all, 200%, not even a 100%. That’s how I always am. Go big, or go home. ✊🏻 I’m here to stand against the Islamophobia, I’m here to normalize the modest dress code and hijab. I’m here to make a real difference. I’m here to promote what I think is good and right. That’s my purpose in this life. InshaAllah ( God willing ).

I have met the most incredible sisters out there in Detroit. I was given a platform to speak the truth. And I am beyond grateful for that. 🙏🏻 Team work makes the dream work! Girls you are all amazing, and I love you all more than you can ever imagine!

Can’t wait to share all the footage and pictures with you all! STAY TUNED FOR THAT!

Thank you and for sponsoring my incredibly beautiful dresses!!

Thank you my beautiful and talented friend .d for style curating my looks and taking them to the whole next level!

Thank you for the given opportunity!

This is only the beginning 💯 !! InshaAllah

Keep on shining, beautiful souls! xoxo Daria

Last pictures I got to snap wearing this swim cap, before I took a swim and the waves took it away forever. 😭😂🌊🌊🌊

DID IT EVER HAPPEN TO YOU?!

This cap is so tight fitting, and yet, it wasn’t able to stay in place. I’m thinking of ordering pro hijab or the Adidas one, so this never happens again. Lol When the waves took away that cap, my reaction was: I took off my skirt and wore it as a hijab 🤣 and kept walking back to my chair like nothing happened! Haha Gladly I had an extra scarf in my bag to wear over my head. C'est la vie.

A modestly dressed (fully covered) woman is often seen by the western society as shy and uptight. What’s even worse, modest dress code in general is opposed to a modern dress code. Couldn’t be further away from the truth!

Being truly confident, knowing your self-worth, loving yourself and your body has nothing to do with showing off all of your “features”.

Why does the world need to see the epic results of your recent work-outs? You know it, your hubby knows it, and that’s enough.

I don’t choose to cover because I’m ashamed of my body. I choose to cover in order to please my Creator first and foremost. And secondly, I have my intellect and talents to shine. My smile and the sparkle in my eyes. That’s what I want the world to focus on: my inner beauty.

You can be modern and empowered, and choose to dress modestly. That’s what my blog is all about. Join the new modern www.veilwithme.com 🧡

We all want to be happy. Don’t we? Us women we make a mistake when we think that “a husband will make us happy”, “a new amazing job will make us happy”, “having kids will make us happy”, “having more money will make us happy”, etc. But in reality, none of that can provide a long-lasting inner happiness and tranquility. Turns out that husbands are far from perfect, career, even a dream one, gets tough at times, and kids... well, they grow up way too fast and the next thing you know, the are off to living their own lives. And money, they are great! But they only provide us with more capabilities, not happiness.

So where do we get that happiness from? Don’t look for it. Create it. The truth might sound cheese, but happiness really does come from within and within only. If you cannot be happy while being single, living paycheck to paycheck and driving your old car, chances are, you won’t be happy even when you’ve got everything you ever wanted.

We must always strive for success, but we must never expect that success make us a happy person.

🧡Wake up in the morning and say: “I am happy today, because I choose to be happy!” Then look in the mirror and smile. Body language really does affect the way we think and feel. Try smiling for 5 minutes straight. This exercise is proven to condition our brain that we are in fact happy. 🧡Take a moment and invest some of your time into gratitude practices. List all the things that you are grateful for, keep adding new things every day to that list once you remember something new. Also, faith plays a huge role here. 🧡Believing in God and in the hereafter is so important. The fulfillment I get from a morning prayer is like nothing else.🙏

Just wanted to share these thoughts with you all... Be happy, stay happy, create happiness within and around yourself. Love you all. xoxo Daria

List of phrases to exclude from your lexicon when dealing with your hijabi friends:

❌1. “This is not hijab.” - there is nothing more discouraging than this phrase. Girl is trying and let Allah be the judge. However, if you see your sis praying and her hair is showing, it’s good to LET HER FINISH HER PRAYER! And then tell her that, indeed, while praying all and skin, hair must be covered, except for the face and palms of the hands. And it’s best that she fixes her hijab and repeats her prayer. Also, if she’s your close friend and you really would like to advice her (and your advice is coming from a genuine place of care!) then it’s a good idea to first say: “Sis, I’m so proud of you for even wearing your hijab in this day and age! May Allah reward your efforts! Ameen. You know what would make your hijab even better? (and here kindly and gently name the thing that you think should be corrected, but only based on sharia law, not your cultural and whatever believes that might be). Also, use DM, don’t leave your public comments for everywhere to see. Clearly, in this case you are trying to promote yourself and not help your sis.

❌2. “You hair/neck/etc. is showing. You might as well take your hijab off.” - Are you serious?! So, it’s either 100% or nothing?!!! Forget your maximalism and perfectionism. EVERY SINGLE EFFORT, let it be small or big, COUNTS! Never be the source of discouragement!

❌3. “You make Islam look bad.” - Seriously?! Her skinny jeans make Islam look bad?! No, your judgmental tone makes us Muslims look bad and your hateful mentality. ALWAYS remember to treat others with kindness and nothing less!

❌4. “Don’t make a fashion out of your hijab.” - What does that even mean?! Hijab is warn for Allah. And if a girl decides to dress it up with floral headscarf and colorful dresses that is totally okay!!!! Hijab does not mean you should wear a potato sack!

🧕Hijab is a symbol of devotion to our Creator. We all are at different levels of our Iman (faith) and we all do the best we can here. Don’t do shaitan’s job. And what’s even worse, don’t do Allah’s job either. Practice kindness! Love you all 🧡 xoxo Daria @ Orange County, California

LET’S START A NEW TREND. Salaam, everyone! This picture was taken back in summer 2016, shortly after I started wearing my hijab for the very first time. 🧡 I remember, I went to Zara and got this oversized cotton scarf and the only oversized shirt I could find. I didn’t know what hijabis wear, I didn’t know where to shop, and this was the only pair of somewhat loose pants I had in my closet, but I WAS TRYING. Looking back now, I feel so happy about this decision of staring to wear the hijab.

‼️One of my fantastic followers suggested a great idea. 🧡 Let’s start a new challenge called “I put my hijab ON” instead of trending “I took my hijab off”. Share your pictures in your hijabs, share yours stories girls, and TAG ME! PUT THE HASHTAG and let’s make this beautiful act go viral. InshaAllah! If others share misleading stuff, then we must share the GOOD stuff as well and be proud. LET’S GO! xoxo Daria

I NOMINATE .b.ibrahim AND ALL YOU, BEAUTIES! Share your hijab picture and put hashtag

TIME FOR A REAL TALK. Honesty is my policy. I’ve always been the one to tell the truth. Consider me your best friend who has your best interests at heart.🧡☝️Allah’s commands are not to be cherry-picked. He did not create the set of rules for us to suffer. On the opposite, they are designed to make our lives easier and bring us success in this life and in the hereafter. Also, the harder it is for you to fulfill some of those commandments, the higher shall be the reward, InshaAllah (God willing). Hijab is more than just a piece of cloth. It’s not another pair of shoes or a dress. It should be taken seriously. And it is not a cultural thing. Please do not remove it and think that “now you are free” and “now you can stay true to yourself”, or what’s even worse, “now you are a modern woman”. 🤦🏼‍♀️ If staying true to oneself means disobeying Allah’s orders, then we should seriously reevaluate our way of thinking. We were granted a free will, therefore hijab is a choice we need to make, but it is NOT an optional thing, just like fasting and praying, etc. It is one of the obligatory commandments from Allah that are expected from the believers. Taking your hijab off will not solve anything. I can relate and sympathize to pain and confusion that someone might be going through, trust me, we’ve all been there. But do not expect me to be hypocritical and salut the bad decisions, taking hijab off being one of them. I’m sorry and I love you all. xoxo Daria

If you wish to purify your intentions, make this dua every day, and I pray that Allah guides us all to the straight path. Ameen.

ARABIC:
‎اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ أَنْ أُشْرِكَ بِكَ وَأَنَا أَعْلَمُ، وَأَسْتَغْفِرُكَ لِمَا لاَ أَعْلَمُ

TRANSLITERATION:
Allahuma inne audhu bikka an ushrika bikka shei an wa ana a’alem wa Astaghfiruka leema la ahlem.

ENGLISH TRANSLATION:
Oh Allah I seek refuge with you from associating anything with you that I know of, and I seek your forgiveness from anything that I don't know of.

What made your day today? ☺️ For me it was receiving this generous and beautiful gift from sister Saba. 🥺🥰 Jazak Allah Khair, beautiful soul! And though we have never met (just yet), I love you so much. 🙏 That’s what social media is about first and foremost: genuine connections and creating friendships. Not showing off fancy cars and extravagant vacations. Unless you are a travel blogger or a car reviewer, keep your fancies to yourself. Honestly, I think we should all learn to be more mindful and modest. Not only in the way we choose to dress, but also in the way we behave and treat others. Just my thoughts. ☺️ Love you all and wishing you to have a bless day. xoxo Daria @ Orange County, California

INNER STRENGTH. 🧡 It is worth remembering that the time of the greatest gain in terms of wisdom and inner strength is often that of greatest difficulty. So, essentially, every hardship that has been sent your way is a gift. It will help you grow and shape your character into a brand new stronger and more powerful YOU. Approach it with patience and faith. Choosing the right perspective, the way you look at things, is the key.🔑Put all the trust that you have in you in God and His plan. Don’t ask, “Why is this happening to me?” But, rather say, “Alhamdulillah. (praise be to God) What can I learn from this? What can I do to make the situation better?” Desperation and frustration are your enemies. It is okay to feel confused a little and maybe even sad. After all, if we were to smile 100% of the time, our face would hurt. 😁 But don’t embrace negative feelings, only focus on what’s productive and constructive. Love you all!🙏 xoxo Daria

It’s a casual chic kinda Monday. 🧡 Feeling down for any reason? Wear a fun pair of heels + a cute flowy skirt, and a better mood is guaranteed!

How exiting 🧡 did such an amazing job, do you guys agree? 👏 I always wanted to have an illustration made. This was a great surprise, thank you! 😊

🖊The calligraphy is so beautiful! It says “As-salamu Alaykum” in a first picture. That’s what I always say in my video introductions, etc. I adore the sound of and the meaning of it. Second says “Bismillah” meaning “In the name of God”.

📌Quick note to my non-Muslim followers: it means “Peace be upon you”. 😊 And the response to it can be “Walaykum as-salam!” Meaning “And peace be upon You.”

Salams everyone! I HAVE SOME EXCITING NEWS. ☺️ But read the whole thing, please. 🙏 First and foremost, I value sisterhood so much. I know I’ve said it before, but I’d like to repeat. Sisterhood for me goes beyond religious and any kind of differences. Us women must always stick up for one another and give each other lots of support.

I always say, “Look in the mirror, that’s your only competition”. I strive to compete with the yesterday”s version of myself only. Other women I see as sisters, each and every one of them is beautiful and talented in their own fantastic ways!

Now for the announcement part. 🎉 I am thinking of taking part in a Miss Muslimah USA 2020 pageant . Please, wish me luck 💛🙏 I will keep you updated, ladies, and if you could, please show your support to me and other contestants.

I have just got off the phone with the CBS news, they plan on covering the event InshaAllah. That’s very exciting. I hope that the world can see what Muslim women are about. We go after our dreams, we work, we hope to bring a positive change and energy to the world and hijab is not an obstacle. Modest dress code is not an obstacle. And we love and accept all people regardless of their faith, ethnicity and so on. We are all one. And thank God for that!

May today and every day be filled with love and piece for each and every one of you, beauties! I love you all. 🧡 xoxo Daria

Me wearing my hijab does not make me a perfect representation of my Faith. This is just one of the many things that I do in order to please my Creator. Feels like a lot of girls nowadays are afraid of wearing the hijab because they are afraid of not being able to live up to the society’s expectations. But you girls need to remember that it’s not the society, not your family, or not even your husband that you are aiming to please with embracing modesty. It is solely for God. It is for your own success and goodness. Period. Don’t try to be perfect. Do the best you can right now and may your efforts be rewarded. We are in this together. 🧡 xoxo Daria @ Orange County, California
