1. Covering their "aurat) (eg wearing hijab) is compulsory in Islam but it is generally not enforced (with some exceptions in some areas of Malaysia). It is still their own choice. 2. Some women don't wear hijab in their younger years but wear them when they are more settled (30s, 40s) as a sign of maturity (like men stopping wearing torn jeans when they are more mature). 3. What happened if they don't wear hijab although it is compulsory? That is between oneself and her God. As analogy, it is compulsory not to tell a lie, but people still do tell lies. (Same goes with gluttony, excessiveness, wastage, acting indecently etc - no difference). Brave topic. Congrats.

I honestly don't understand the fixation of other people on the hijab, we all wear clothes, what's weird about a head covering? Its just a little bit extra on top of regular clothing. Nuns wear them, nobody questioned them. Sikh men and women wear head covering, nobody implying they're "pressured" to do so.

Actually, you have to ask, how did a country where almost 90% of muslims did not wear hijab became 90% wearing the hijab in the space of only 20 years? This could not have happened without peer pressure, societal pressure. So it is a big topic, for me especially because the Malay culture has been eroded by the muslim (arab) culture.

But muslim don’t changed. We still followed the quran . Non muslim judged us by our dressing, but we are the same with our believed.

I still recall that, despite Islam having taught women to wear the hijab for thousands of years ago, the majority of Muslim women in Malaysia did not wear it prior to the 1980s. The hijab is now worn by Muslim women in Malaysia not just as a sign of respect for Islamic teachings but also as an element of their personal style. Hijab should be worn voluntarily, not because it is required-much less required by the government. Nonetheless, many women also opt to forgo the hijab since, in Malaysia's humid environment, doing so is more comfortable. God himself offers heaven and hell for us to choose from, so it's up to each of us to make the right decision. After all, there is still no assurance that wearing a hijab will ensure your entrance into heaven, as only God has the power to assign someone to His heaven or hell.

Hi Chai! I thoroughly understand what the ladies say but myb some are unable to express clearly.

When a Muslim male or female reaches puberty, they hv a responsibility as a believing Muslim to understand the Islamic teachings and adhere to it. Hijab encourages modesty, both physically and spiritually. When a woman covers her head as per Allah's command, it is her way of showing her belief in Allah and accepting all his commands. It makes the connection between the Almighty and that woman stronger.

I think because sarawak is such a multi religion state, we really like to keep religion to our personal self and that's why parents think that their children should also have a degree of personal relationship with god. But its just a general idea, of course there are some parents who wants their child to wear hijab but its probably just gonna be a stern advice, nothing physical.

They have a religion and believe in God, of course the "pressure" comes from following what God commanded. But the best word to use is - faithful instead of pressure.

Muslim women in Malaysia can easily be identified as it sounds more feminine 😄 And yes I'm his Malaysian Muslim woman subscriber since his first video of Malaysia. I wear hijab late in my 30s as the "societal pressure" for me is actually not to wear hijab in Kuala Lumpur, very hard to get a job to be honest, as wearing hijab is seen as being conservative so the women who wear it are seen as not suitable for business relations etc. It's a total discrimination if you ask me. I don't even wear high heels or make up. I never learn how to, but I have to wear them to work. It took a while for the business society in general not to discriminate against the women who wear hijab, and after they proved themselves to be equally as competitive as those who didn't wear hijab like me. Nowadays Muslim women in Malaysia can finally wear hijab with freedom at work without being told to remove them if they want the job, there's more understanding from the other races in Malaysia that our cloth didn't do the work, it's ourselves who is doing the work. In fact it's more empowering for the women in general as we are no longer judged by our looks, hair, makeups and body in our working society, but rather by our own intellect and capabilities. Hope this explaination helps ☺️

Muslim ladies are mandatory to wear hijab after puberty. They are allowed to show their hair to fellow ladies, family members and husbands only. Some chose not to wear it, and its between God and her. The society shouldn't be forcing her to wear. But an islamic society should encourage and give a good environment for her to wear it because we are following God's order. The reason why hijab is required for ladies is to protect our modesty and chastity, hijab doesnt just mean the headscarf, it means covering the aurah, which is part of the body which is prohibited for the other gender to see. Generally ladies have to cover their whole body except the face, and palm of hands. For male (and ladies among family members and fellow muslim ladies) its covering from navel to knee.

By analogy, just like the traffic rule when you must fasten your seatbelt for your own safety. But if you choose not to fasten, it is between u and the police. In islam, scarf is part of the covering where woman need to cover all parts of the body from the eye of men (except father, husband, siblings, some relatives) except face and hand. In islam, this is part of woman empowerment where the typical streotype and prejudice against women on how they look as a symbol of sex can be avoided. On the same page, men is also instructed by god to lower their gaze, which some/most of men disobey this rule and put tht blame on women for their dress.

Its not mandatory to wear them in malaysia since enforcing one to wear them would be very contradictory with Islam. although sadly it does happens with social pressure. In school dressing code girls do need to wear them along with a uniform. I came from a malay muslim background. My mom and my family never push on wearing the hijab or even praying, we rarely pray and personally i only pray when i feel like its necessary and it still doesnt make me less of a muslim, many people in my family dont wear the hijab except only do so during recitation and praying time, although they happened to be more religious than i am, some chose to wear them because they like the fashion and hijabista trends. My mom started to practically wear the hijab and dressed up modestly after my late dads passing and even actively recite Al Quran and praying more recently, becoming more religious, yet she never push them on us still. There are types of muslims you can find still, muslims that can be conservatives, muslims can be liberal in practices and dressing and muslims that will just keep it to themselves as a personal choice, because in the ends its just between you and Allah SWT relationship, not the people.

Well done Chai on tackling a potentially controversial subject with very good tact. Until the 1990s, very few muslim women in Malaysia wore the hijab. What changed? For me it is clear - societal pressure. With the establishment of all-muslim boarding schools in malaysia in the 1980s and 1990s, every year less and less students would stay hijab free as all of them feel the peer pressure to wear it. If you don't wear it, you're a bad girl, the religious teacher will punish you and god will be angry, etc. There is pressure even though they don't want to admit it. Even the interviewee who said that it is her choice admitted that her husband wants her to wear the hijab. There are many things which are haram in Islam that muslims still do, so why is this hijab thing so important? Only reason is control - men want to control women, parents want to protect their kids. What kind of parents think that 10 year olds are not dressed decently simply by not covering their hair? Paedophiles? And to be muslim is to dress decently, so what kind of warped hypocrisy is it to cover the hair yet still wear tight body hugging clothes? I really want to see a malaysia where my daughter is not judged by what she wears, but by her conduct. And I am sure that is how God the almighty judges her. Wear the hijab if it is important to you, but it is more important to be a good person.

Hi Chai, I would like to enlightened you about how Islam has spread and embrace by Malay people in Islam specifically. Before Malay embracing Islam, they were practicing Buddhism, Hinduism and animism. Then when Arab Muslim Marchants and indian muslim Marchants do a trade with those Malay Kingdoms along spice sea routes which is from Indian ocean, strait of Malacca, Champa sea . So, Islam on that time is very new to them, of course enthusiasm of malays could lead them to ask more about Islam from those Muslim Marchants. Islam is propagated without bloodshed my friend. It's about mutual relationship between local authorities and Muslim Marchants. Until now, Malay Kings are still taking advice from prominent Muslim scholar and appointed him to be his counsel. So, hijab or scarf is not a symbol of oppression, it's a symbol of an individual obligation to God.
