Getting to Know the Hijabers Community

seo-img-article

In its literal meaning, “hijabers community” translates to a common group of hijabers, in general. But Hijabers Community (HC) here, is a specific term chosen by a group of hijabers in Jakarta, to be the official name of the community. Maybe some of us here are familiar with HC – their existence, their activites, their statement-making fashion, and how greatly they influence hijab trends in Indonesia.

HC was initiated by 30 young hijabers from various backgrounds who happened to meet at muslimah silaturahim back in 2010. They made a group, and decided to create a community for hijabers. “We’d like to form a community where we can share, learn about hijab and Islam, so hijabers will no longer think that they are ‘alone’. [As well as] To convince other, that being a hijaber is beautiful, and definitely not to constrain someone from their passion”, explained Jenahara Nasution, President of HC.
