Neighbors during a Tik Tok session of question and answer, SZA talked about growing up Muslim and why she stopped wearing a hijab. According to Madamenoire, SZA's life changed after the tragedy on September 11, 2001.
______________________________________________
SZA's father was Muslim and had her attending a Muslim prep school in Newark, New Jersey where she describes her upbringing as very secluded. Before 9/11 SZA wore a hijab. Afterwards, when Islamaphobia was present, she feared of covering up believing she could be a target.
______________________________________________
"I regret so much—like, being afraid or caring what people said about me, or in high school feeling like if I didn't cover all the time that I can't start covering some of the time," SZA said. "And I did start covering again in high school, and then they were like, 'What is this? You don't live your life properly. You're not really Muslim. Shut up.' I always let somebody dictate how I was."
_____________________________________________
Despite her decision, SZA still has times where she desires to wear a hijab. "I remember the other day even talking to Punch, my manager, and being like, 'Oh, I want to wear a hijab. I wonder if I could,'" SZA revealed. "We played Malaysia and Indonesia, and it was really comforting to be able to cover up for those shows. I didn't feel like anybody would judge me or was going to say that I was being fake. It was just part of the custom, where I'm amongst my own people, and they just accepted me as whatever."

Mikey is kinda right, I can kinda relate to the 'half'-Christian, 'half'-Muslim thing being confusing.

i am GENUINELY not trynna be adversarial here rig bby cuz u know i use
but honestly, says WHO?
like.... who honestly has the right on this earth to tell someone they can't pray to God and Allah and whatever else or the right to say what they are or aren't religion-wise? maybe its just my pov, but i feel like if you have a spiritual connection with whatever higher power(s) you believe in, at that point, you alone dictate what your religious identification is. if i say im christian AND muslim and ive worked the mess out perfectly for ME, who has the RIGHT to tell me otherwise? idk is that too edgy? lol

Not when they conflict with each other, there are a few main principles that are similar, but you can't take mix and match
Muslims believe humans are born pure, Christians believe we're born in sin
Christians pray to the trinity, whilst Muslims consider this a sin and they only pray to Allah, we have statues and iconography depicting Jesus, it's a sin to depict Prophet Mohammed in anyway
I'm lucky my dad was quite opened minded and liberal, he taught us the basics and left it up to us to make up our minds, but we've also been baptised and had our holy confirmation etc
Aren't god and allah the same
Except for one had 12 men following him around everywhere :ohwow: and the other likes to play with planes

i totally get that, but... ok hear me out
i don't believe everything MAN wrote in the bible was actually the way God felt, i think some of it was just what MAN felt. i think the same goes for other religions as well
i think a spiritual understaning/connection is MUCH more important than some old ass, outdated book with orogins that NONE if us really know. Nor do we know how accurate it is to what God said/felt/etc.
so i feel like if you put your spiritual connection over the "rules" of the religion (again, that NONE of us know the true origin) and interpret for yoursekf as we all have the right to do, it then becomes a lot easier for different religions to play together. because honestly almost all religions have the same base concept.

Oh I get what you mean, it's having a more worldly spiritual outlook than labelling yourself
yea i guees thats kinda it.
but idk i just feel like, ppl have the right to interpret religion in different and new ways. you don't HAVE to adhere to x, y, z to be a christian/muslim/etc. i just feel like if you are connected spiritually with the higher power of that religion, you have the right to interpret and practice that religion however you feel comfortable (even if that means mixing with another religion) and still label yourself. because literally no one on this earth can tell you you're not or you're doing it wrong.

Muslims believe in Jesus, Mary, the Bible (before it was completely remodeled by Peter) and they pray to the same God. There is only one God they just call him Allah.
