Famous actress Nimra Khan praised the hijab of former actress Zarnish Khan, who left the entertainment industry, and said that people should learn from her what the true meaning of hijab is.
Recently, Khan was invited to a podcast discussing various topics, including her kidnapping.
“Veil and hijab mean to cover the body and face completely. The purpose of hijab is not only to cover the hair and part of the face. Whether right or wrong, it is between me and Allah,” she said.
“When one wears hijab, it means covering everything. If I stand before you (a man), nothing from head to toe should attract you. So, it covers not only the head but everything, including the eyes,” she added.
Citing the example of former actress Zarnish Khan, Nimra said that her career was on the rise, but Zarnish left everything and started veiling. “She is not even sharing reels (short videos) while wearing hijab.”
She added, “It is often seen that women and young girls wear hijab as a fashion statement. They wear hijab over jeans, pants, and shirts; some even wear makeup. They don’t understand the true meaning of hijab, which should not be done that way,” she said.
“I understand that some people earn their livelihood through social media, but Zarnish gave up everything completely. I salute and respect her decision because few people have that courage,” she praised Khan.
