That happened around three weeks ago, and it popped into my mind today as I was driving to work. I just had to rant about it before it festered and gave me emotional poison! "you know them, you know how they think 7egab is bee2a" said by my good friend of 16 years! She's been married for a while now, her husband is more on the religious side than her mother's family; he had asked her not to wear swimwear where men could see her and not have her hair cut by men. He also said he'd love it if she gets veiled but he'd never really ask her to do it because it's her decision. She started dressing rather modestly; no more shorts or sleeveless tops to put his mind at ease.

She's one of the most tolerant people I've known and most of our mutual friends are veiled… hell, I am veiled and I know she proudly refers to me as her best friend. I just resented her family twice as much as I already did. Those people have been pressuring her into a life style she was never able to keep up with because they view everything religious as "bee2a"! I am not saying they're ill mannered or generally unethical; all I am saying is that the only way they'd positively judge a "religious" group of people would be if they were filthy rich, but in a classy way, whatever that's supposed to mean!! I've always known her mom never liked me because she first heard of me when I had gotten veiled; you see, tan
