TEHRAN, May 25 (MNA) – In an exclusive interview with Mehr News, a new Islam convert has said that West fools women by feminism theories and women rights.

Following is the second part of the interview with Jennah Heydari, a revert lady from Canada. The first part was published earlier.

Jennah Heydari lives in Ontario, Canada with her husband, Nafe Heydari and her youngest son. She has two sons; the older son is already away in college. She is a book illustrator and is currently working on a children’s book that she wrote and has been illustrating about a little girl who wears hijab for the first time “Dhoha’s first hijab”.

She helps run an online support group called the Revert Muslims Association, currently organized and maintained by some very devoted Muslims. She started this group back in 2005 as a way to keep new Muslims connected, supported and networked with those, more knowledgeable.

Talking about the path se passed by to Islam Ms Heydari said her disease helped her search about Islam. She went on saying that she searched about different religions and became interested to have Quran.

One particular day, when I went to the local book store found an English paperback copy of the Qur’an. I was delighted to see it there, it was not like the Qur’an’s I had seen pictures of, on the Internet, but it was all I could find and so I purchased it. Alhamdulillah at that moment I knew I was Muslim. Shortly after this point, I took my shahada. As a western citizen what does the western civilization lack which made you towards a new system like Islam? I think that question is answered, for me, by the concept of hijab. As a western girl, growing up in Montreal, Quebec, I was, of course, influenced by the media, by my peers. Although I was stubborn and so I was inclined to do things my own way. Wearing baggy clothes was something that appealed to me, even though not everyone appreciated my sense of style. It was all very ironic, as I began to read about hijab, I pondered the idea of feminism and women’s rights.
