A sister says "I'm too young"

[NaSra]

I have little muslimah's in my family who are only 4 years old and they don't even need to be reminded when leaving the house to put on a hijab.

That's really not something that a child does within a day or even weeks, It comes from Adaab and Akh-laaq, it comes from the observation that little kids do on their parents from the day they are born. When the mother fears Allah and sets a good example for her daughter the daughter will want to become like her mother.

If you wear a hijab and you have intentions to please your community or because you fear your brother or father, I don't think that Allah will give you rewards for something that one does without a good intention and without sincerity.

and the person who said let them have their childhood,

My cousins run faster then other children without hijab, they play just like other children. Modesty does not stop a child from having fun, it actually makes them grow as good human beings, who have shyness and self-respect for their body.

unlike the western mother who walks next to her daughter in public with a mini-skirt, you think that little innocent girl will not follow her mothers foot-steps one day? She will and by the time she is grown up the word "Modesty" will be something that is Odd and strange. Go figure...

There is a saying where I come from, " You can only shape a tree when it's small and young, once it grows, it'll grow into a certain direction and you can't change it then"

thats my 2 cents
