Yes.

I totally agree with the message this woman is sending out to the Musims. In today's world, where diversity is extremely evident, it is our duty to educate our peers on Islam - how else will others understand our way of life?
I know how easy it is for people to confuse themselves with the simple concept of Hijab, particularly beause of the western style of thinking, where a woman is seen as liberated if she can wear what she wants.
I really and truly hope that all the people who view this page - all the Muslims, Christians, Jews, Buddhists, Atheists, Agnostics, Hindus, etc, understand that we should all educate each other on our religions to increase the peace and unity around the world.

And on a final note, please! Muslim women in Hijab are not oppressed!

Thank you.
