Dealing with family posting my photos without hijab
Salam alaikum, sisters. I reverted to Islam about a year ago, alhamdulillah. But I’m struggling with family still sharing old or new pictures of me without my hijab. Most of them forget, so I gently remind them, they say sorry and remove the photo. But today, my grandma posted a pic from my birthday with no hijab. I felt so hurt and disrespected. I’ve told everyone before how important this is for me. They all know I wear hijab now. My grandma never says it outright, but I sense she isn’t okay with me being Muslim. She’s Christian and has some strong biases-honestly, she’s said some things that feel racist and intolerant. She even supports a politician here who really dislikes Muslims and anyone not from his own church. It’s tough because she always says she loves me, but her actions don’t feel like it. Should I message her again to take it down, or just let it go this time? Jazakum Allahu khairan for any advice.
Allahumma ameen to all the duas here. Sister, I’d gently message her again-sometimes elders need a direct, kind reminder. Maybe pair it with sending her a beautiful pic of you in hijab.
