I totally understand the reader who wrote in last month concerning "What's Wrong With Tradition?"

Living in an western world and society we as us men and women are greatly influenced with the western culture and it is made as a tradition that the only way you will be accepted as a modern man or woman is by dressing to the latest fashions.

Why be ashamed of what we are and try to make ourselves be something we are not and never will be.

As an ex 'modern' Muslim woman I have come to realise the importance of practising the Islamic way of dressing not only have I received so much of respect but I am more happy within myself.
