The Trend Of Taking Off The Hijab and The Performance Trap | Ep25 Beyond The Shahada

You see that old memory pop up on your phone… and for a second, you don't even recognize the person you used to be. If you feel a weird distance between who you were and who you're becoming, you're not alone.

On this powerful episode of Beyond The Shahada, Bree Shaaban is breaking the ultimate taboo: the internal civil war that leads women to take off the hijab. We're exposing the sneaky double standards you've definitely noticed (why is his awrah a 'suggestion' and hers a 'mandatory law'?) and the crushing guilt of the "Performance Trap", where your outfit tells a story of perfection your soul can't live up to, making you feel like a "fraud."

This isn't about rejecting faith. It's about the exhausting weight of everyone's expectations and the desperate search for an authentic identity. If you've ever felt the pressure of the "Modesty Police," wondered "where do I fit in?", or crumbled under the praise for a piety you don't feel, this conversation is your lifeline. You are seen, you are understood, and you are not a bad Muslim for struggling.
