She sold her Religion - A true story
This is a true story of a Niqabi sister in France. After picking groceries in the supermarket, the Niqabi sister stood in the line to pay. After few minutes, her turn came up at the checkout counter. The checkout girl who was non Hijabi Arab Muslim girl started to scan the items of the Niqabi sister one by one and then she looked at her with arrogance and said: “we have in France many issues, your Niqab is one them. We, immigrants, are here for trade and not to show our Deen or history. If you want to practice your deen and wear Niqab then go back to your Arab country and do whatever you want!”
The Niqabi sister stopped putting her grocery in the bag and took off her Niqab. The checkout girl was madly shocked. The Niqabi girl who had blond hair with blue eyes told her: “I am a French girl, not an Arab immigrant! This is my country and this is my Islam.” She ended up using literary Arab and telling her: “antum bayahtum dinukum wanahnu Shtaraynah” which can be translated into “you sold your deen and we bought it from you.”
