World Hijab Day
World Hijab Day is observed today to celebrate the choice of women who wear the hijab and to promote religious tolerance worldwide.
Established in 2013 by Nazma Khan, World Hijab Day encourages women of all backgrounds to experience wearing the hijab for a day.
The observance aims to foster understanding, challenge stereotypes, and support women’s freedom of religious expression.
Events include open conversations, social media campaigns, and educational workshops around the globe.
Participants share their stories and photos using the hashtag #WorldHijabDay.
Through solidarity and dialogue, the movement builds bridges between communities and raises awareness of cultural diversity.
