Girl in Hijab

A hijab refers to the traditional head, face, or body covering worn by Muslim women or men. It does not only refer to the physical body covering, but also embodies a metaphysical dimension, where al-hijab refers to "the veil which separates man or the world from God." Hijab can also be used to refer to the seclusion of women from men in the public sphere. Most often, it is worn by Muslim women as a symbol of modesty, privacy, and morality, particularly in the presence of non-related adult males.

Below are some beautiful portraits of girl in hijab, all taken by different film cameras
