I have recently worn Hijab. I would like to ask you about the required action towards my photos which were posted on social media before wearing hijab. Some of these photos are not posted on my personal profile, but on other people’s pages as I shared them some competitions and events, and thus they posted the photos. Shall I ask them to delete these photos?
Answer
Praise Be to Allah and Peace Be Upon His Messenger.
Initially, I would like to say Al-Hamdulillah that He guided you to the right path. I pray to Him to give you the full reward.
Regarding your question, I recommend that you kindly ask your friends to crop a part of a photo, cover the part in which you appear without hijab, or do any other modification.
These procedures can be easily done. If they do what you ask them, they will be rewarded by Allah. If they do not, you are not to blame as you did your best, but they did not help.
