In January, the world was blessed with a curvy Barbie, a tall Barbie and a petite Barbie. Now, 24-year-old Nigerian Haneefah Adam is making the case for the hijab Barbie.

She came up with the idea for Hijarbie while she was studying for her master’s degree in England. Haneefah noticed a lack of diverse toys for little girls and wanted to introduce a modest dress doll to the market. .

After crafting the idea for a few months, she came home to Nigeria and started documenting her idea — creating all of the hijabs and dresses on her own. Her dolls nicknamed "Hijarbie" has taken Instagram by storm and even has its own separate IG account @hijabchickbarbie


"It got me thinking about how I'd actually like to see a doll dressed up like I would have — covered up," Adam, who is a fashion designer, told Style Mic. "I was mulling about the idea for about three months while I was still studying for my master's degree in the U.K. When I got back to Nigeria, I went to the mall, purchased a doll, dressed it up, documented it and here we are."

Adam and Adama are common Muslim names for boy n girl. Pity that differences are now more obvious than similarities among religions. Ayoub/Job, Daud/David, Yusuf/Joseph, Ibrahim/Abraham, Isah/Jesus, Yacoub/Jacob, Ishmael/Ismail, Mary/Maryam.

cute baby but is that how u should keep on covering yourself

You are really disgusting, you even made me think if you actually got a brain.

Pls can someone explain to me the essence of this hijab. I heard its supposed to make ladies "unattractive" to the opposite sex except their husbands. Pls is this true?

If its true, isn't the Barbie in red dress "attractive"? And then, why its being applauded? Most of our Muslim sisters dress that way too. Why cover head and leave out chest? Isn't the chest more appealing when it comes to sexual attractiveness?
Also, what of the elaborate make-up? Is it still in concord with simplicity in dressing?

Pls these are my honest questions.
Thank you

Ok
