Religious Tourism

I would say hijab is more “natural” than cultural or religious. It means it sounds to be in the natural instincts of people, specially women.

Looking back in the history, not only we see that hijab existed in many religions like Islam, Hinduism, Christianity, Judaism, Zoroastrianism, Sikhism,…, but also we see that in many places and times where people didn’t have a religion, women tried their best to cover their body.

It was for protection. It was sth personal that women wanted to do to protect their bodies from lustful eyes of men back then. It was to make them feel secure and safe.
