Has anyone ever worn a burqa?
Asalam alaykum wa rahmutallahi wa barakatu.
Has anyone here ever tried to wear a burqa? I mean an actual Afghani style burqa, not niqab. SubhanAllah I find them to be very appealing and kind of beautiful. I think they'd actually be really nice to wear, having a hair/neck and face cover all in one. I don't have the money right now (those things are expensive) , and at this moment in my life I don't think its safe for me to go out with my eyes covered too. I would love to do it one day though insha'Allah. I have also seen some that are similar to the typical Afghani ones but with a twist that have like thin chiffon over the eyes instead with a smaller eye hole.
I have a few questions about them
- Can you even see? How difficult is it go get around?
- I'm worried my eyebrows or nose would be too visible. Is there a way to prevent this? Or a certain kind that is better.
