Just The Way You Are

Assalamualaykum guys. Ramadan Kareem!
I don't know why some girl are obsessed to look beautiful, slim and fair.

We teach our girls that their bodies have to be shaped a certain way for them to be accepted and their lips have to look a certain way to be attractive. Their skin has to be a certain complexion for them to be praised and their eyes have to be a certain colour to be called beautiful. You can’t be overweight but you also can’t be too skinny - just be perfect. The tall wish that they were an inch shorter, and those who are short desire that they can be slightly taller. Hair and lashes have to be on fleek and handbags have to match clothing. It’s okay to inject and have operations - even if it means intense pain. It’s fine to spend hours on your make up every single day, take hundreds of selfie that you’re not happy with every week for Insta, and spend thousands of pounds that you don’t have on accessories every month. My question is - after all the effort why do we still dislike ourselves in the mirror? And why are people are never pleased?

Sisters - Allah and His Messenger just want you to beautify your hearts. The moment you attain that, you’ll love yourself no matter how you look and no matter what people say. Allah doesn’t want perfection from you to be pleased. He just wants you to be real.

We love you just the way you are. <3
