Happy #worldhijabday2023 Why does this day matter? Because I believe #religiousfreedom is a basic human right and women should not be forced to choose between wearing hijab and going to university or wearing hijab and working. Just as I adamantly believe women should not be forced to wear hijab because God says, "Let there be no compulsion in religion." I have been wearing hijab for over three decades, and I am not going to pretend it was always easy, but who said anything worthwhile was ever easy? —Dr. Nour Akhras 📸: @nourakhrasmd
