The Lyrics – Tianqi Chang & Qingyu LI

Current issue:

Muslim women get targeted for wearing the hijab. We get marginalized, we get called oppressed, uneducated, seen as less achieved and so many other labels we care not to mention.
—Iman Aldebe

These stereotypes confuse Islam with cultural practices and fail
to recognize that Islam has
empowered women with the
pursuit of beauty.
