Wednesday, November 30, 2016
There's a new movement to make sports easy and accessible for Muslim women who wear hajibs.

A company called Asiya calls it modesty in motion and has created a way for women to participate in physical activities while still upholding their religious and cultural beliefs.

Their sports hijab covers the head, but is made for play.

"There shouldn't be a barrier as simple as clothing that keeps people apart. All girls no matter of their religion should be able to play sports, said a company representative.

Through crowdfunding, they have been able to bring this line of sports hajibs to the market.
