#face veil

[fortheloveofxenia]

There’s something really comforting about veiling. Being able to have that extra layer of separation between myself and the outside world helps me keep my sensory issues at bay. Being able to have everyone see that I’m religious is such a powerful thing. Having a physical reminder of my devotion to my gods provides me with the strength to power through even the hardest days, because I always have them with me.

Whether it’s a simple bandana tied on before I leave the house, a full coverage scarf, or tegidion; I always feel more comforted and confident when i’m covered.

5 years of Tumblr! here's to many more years of wearing and encouraging niqab (face veiling and headscarves) for everyone of all genders.

If you haven't worn niqab or veiled yet, take the initiative and put it on today! No excuses, anyone can tie a full veil with a few scarves.

Watch my quick and easy tutorial on how to tie niqab using square scarves (great for both men and women).

Remember - veiling is universal and perfect for everyone! It's the goal to get everyone on earth to wear niqab permanently to make us all equal and smash gender inequality.

My tegidion! I love wearing it but I'm always afraid to wear it out in public, this year I hope to wear it out more 🥰

I just have to say something really quick that just makes me sick.

Most places in Europe have decided to make anti-niqab/face veil laws, and after a bit of research in my Poli Sci class, America is looking at a bill that also follows in suite.

This not only promotes Islamophobia, but also disregards the rights of ALL women. I know that most American politicians don't look into stuff that they are making bills about (as an american) , but they should at LEAST know that women of all cultures and religions (or lac thereof) can use a face veil as it could be used for:

Medical reasons

Practical reasons

Fashion

Modesty

Religious purposes

& more.

As a woman who veils, and is getting into face veils, this disgusts me and should be talked about more.

For as long as the heavens could remember, it is rumored that Hua Cheng has a spouse whose identity is hidden behind a veil.

hey y’all i just wanted to share my veiling discord server !!

It’s a community for anyone and everyone who veils, regardless of faith. We have a variety of channels for chatting, asking questions, sharing resources, learning new things, and so much more!!

If you veil, are interested in veiling, or just want to be part of a chill interfaith community, we’re a great place to stop!!

Ifsan and Noor.

This art based on my fable, is set in Catstantinople where the story goes back to the time of Ifsan's childhood days and his sweet loving mother, Noor.

Here we see a young Ifsan whose been accompanied by his mother Noor, as they walked past the ship docks into the main gate as they both enter the city to go to market.

Noor as you can see is wearing Islamic style clothing as she's from Alfuria (animal version of of the African country, Algeria), who came to Catstantinople after meeting Ifsan's father Mike, selling shoes in Egypt. She likes to wear her traditional clothing mostly for safely as the city was ruled by the ruthless Sultan. She loves her son with all her heart and would do everything she can to make sure her son has a free, happy life.

Oh Llama, could I request general headcanons for evil Mc? Also, can you elaborate on how she met Skull? Cause I think it's so cute how she saved his life, and now he would give his in exchange.

Here's some tidbits on the supervillain Mc au!

The boys get on surprisingly well. They don't get on perfectly- there's still some natural jealousy as a result of all vying for the same villain. But they're all aware of the fact that they fill their own valuable niches in her life, and they take pride in those niches. Sans is her trusted friend, Red is her valued commander and occasional paramour, Skull is her utterly devoted guard dog. And at the end of the day, infighting would be detrimental to her plans.

@iridescent-serpent's banger art means her having a spooky veil is canon. Her boys are the only ones privy to her face.

People who commit particularly egregious crimes against her have three possible ways of being dealt with- death by one of Red's blades, being fed to Skull, or being sent to Sans' lab as a test subject if he so requests.

(Skull is the best way to go. It'll be quick. Red likes to make a show of it to impress Mc, and Sans... well. Sans will make it last a long time.)

Red's actually a very good general. Sure, he has a temper, but who doesn't? He's ruthless, strategically minded, and surprisingly forgiving of genuine mistakes by his underlings.

Red has stopped the most assassination attempts against her. You'd think it'd be Skull, but Skull's constant looming presence means very few have ever had the bravery/stupidity to get that close.

Sans designed her outfit.

To many, Sans appears like he feels absolutely nothing. She's the only one privy to his real emotions- they often communicate with single nods... and sometimes, even a nod is too much, and only a glance is needed.

Sans is the only one who's seen her cry. In complete private, they have nicknames for one another.

Skull has his own room. He rarely uses it, too busy being glued to her side. But he appreciates the gesture.

All three of them carry some kind of memento of her within lockets. Sans has a lock of her hair, Red has a piece of fabric with her kiss mark on it, and Skull has a small vial of her favourite perfume.

As for the subject of how she met Skull... he was most likely being held prisoner by heroes. They saw a beast lashing out and assumed he was a mindless monster that needed locking up- no one stopped to think there might be someone within that monster, crying out for help. He was simply muzzled and locked away to rot.

She set him free. But... more importantly... she was the first to ever treat him gently. She spoke to him in soft tones, soothed him with a hand against his cheekbone. Reminded him that he was still a person, a person who deserved warmth and love like everyone else.

... There was never the expectation that he would follow her. But he did. The moment she treated him with kindness, he would've followed her anywhere. Hero or villain.
