It is in our nature to protect our bodies. So what is the problem if a woman adds just one more piece of clothing besides regular outfit, a headscarf? I believe there is no reason to refute it. It gives such confidence and pushes you harder to put more effort because you need to be twice as better in order to prove that you, according to Islam, have no choice but to be good to yourself and others. You ought to be as much visible with the good deeds as with hijab.
What matters the most is our purpose and intentions. We believe and intend to influence positively with our moral, intellectual, and practical values as we, like many others, strive to be the best inhabitants of this world. So support us to harvest our ideas in a way that we feel most comfortable with and that includes our way of dressing too (i.e. the hijab).
