Pakistani actress Areej Fatima Jafri, who was born in the USA, has won fans’ hearts once again with another beautiful decision after leaving the showbiz industry.
She showed her acting skills in hit dramas like Hassad, Gustakh Dil, and Tum Mere Paas Raho. At the peak of her career, Areej decided to get married. In 2017, she tied the knot with Dr. Uzair Ali.
After marriage, she focused completely on her family and said goodbye to the showbiz world. However, she stayed connected with her fans by being very active on social media.
Not only that, she also started her own YouTube channel where she talked about her health, skincare routine, family life, and children. She also shared that her elder son had a heart condition since birth.
Now, Areej, who lives with her husband and kids in Holland, a small town in the state of Ohio, USA, has made another important decision that fans are praising a lot.
A few days ago, she shared a post on Instagram where she talked about choosing to wear the hijab and how the experience has been for her.
Now, Areej Fatima is often seen wearing the hijab and even shares different hijab style videos with her fans.
In a recent post, she talked about the criticism she received after choosing to wear the hijab. Areej said that as soon as she shared her decision, many people started judging her.
She said it was funny how people suddenly thought it was their job to judge her just because she chose to wear the hijab.
After her announcement, her inbox was filled with long messages. Some people were giving her lectures, while others were directly criticizing her.
Feeling disappointed with this reaction, Areej said she will do what feels right to her heart and what Allah guides her to do. She added that choosing hijab does not mean she asked for anyone’s opinion or unwanted advice.
Fans and Fellow Celebrities React
After her announcement, social media was filled with mixed reactions, but most people supported and praised her decision.
One fan said this generation is choosing modesty and that is beautiful.
Another user wrote I knew one day you would start wearing the hijab, Areej.
Many followers who wear hijab also shared their experiences, gave advice, and encouraged her.
