“It never ceases to amaze me how a certain fashion style can seem oppressive to some. Oppression occurs when an individual’s rights are taken away. If a woman makes a choice to dress modestly, that seems more empowering than anything else because she made a choice that her body belongs to her – and she gets to choose who sees it despite society telling her otherwise. On the other hand, taking away her freedom to dress the way that she would like to, whether that be modestly or not, by placing laws that don’t allow certain clothing, is exactly what oppression is.” @riinubi's thoughts articulated in my book (@neemtreepress) seem particularly relevant in light of the EU high court's recent decision to allow employers to ban their employees from wearing headacarves.🧕🏾⁉️

"Our community – Muslim South Asian, with heavy Middle Eastern influences – is one where your choice of swimwear can quickly determine which "camp' of the faithful you belong in: the ultra-modern liberals or the conservative, proper, 'practicing' Muslims. But attributing one’s religious adherence to their style of swimwear is indicative of a narrow-minded lens that many of us are culturally conditioned to see through..."

It’s been a while since I posted about my book, and #NationalWritingDay (UK) seems like a good time to bring this back on the feed!

It's available online through most major book shops, Swipe ➡️ for some of my favourite reviews! (PS – thank you to @writereadeatrepeat whose post about her own book alerted me to this special holiday and opportunity for some overdue book promo!) #nationalwritingday #author #journalist #book #modestfashion #nonfiction #bookstagram #modesty #modestfashionbloggers #fashiondesigners #brands #luxury #design #trends #culture #politics #faith #feminism

“The advantage that Israel has enjoyed in continuing its project rests on the fact that the basically colonial nature of the encounter in Palestine has not been visible to most Americans and Europeans. Israel appears to them to be a normal, natural nation-state like any other.. The propagation of this image is one of the greatest achievements of Zionism and is vital to its survival….dismantling this fallacy and making the true nature of the conflict evident is a necessary step if Palestinians and Israelis are to transition to a postcolonial future in which one people does not use external support to oppress and supplant the other.”

According to Google, green is associated with growth, harmony and freshness ~ manifesting all of that with this @newlook @asos dress 🌱 #greendress #ootd #lotd #style #pinkwall #asos #summer #style #sneakers #dubai #Gucci #gucciace #gucciblooms #newlook
