TIMES OF ISLAM, TANJUNG ENIM - HIJAB is a cover for a Muslim's nakedness, but it is not a barrier for her achievement in various fields. Since the time of the Prophets, women have not been deterred from acting and contributing to society. And, in the present it is increasingly clear. Some Muslim women in the world managed to make achievements in history with their hijab. Many of them are the inspiration for the world. They not only exist in Muslim countries. Shine their achievements and even 'publish' in parts of the world where the majority are non-Muslims. Their determination in the hijab then succeeded in making their name up to the world. Not only that, they also managed to open the eyes of the world about the true image of Muslim women. That, the hijab is not a form of Islamic restraint or discrimination for women. About Islam records, there are at least 5 Muslim leaders in the world whose names are raised because of their work with the hijab in 2018.
Miftahul Jannah
The 21-year-old Muslim woman who represented Indonesia at the 2018 Asian Para Games then managed to steal the attention when she was disqualified from the Judo match because she was firmly wearing a hijab.Miftahul's decision to defend the hijab even though he had to be willing to be kicked out of the prestigious match he participated in became an inspirational story that invited emotion.According to the visually impaired athlete, the headscarf for him is a shade and protector for women. So, he is more proud to look great in God's eyes than to be proud in the eyes of the world."At least, I have been able to control myself, so that it is great in the eyes of Allah SWT," said Miftahul Jannah.
Amena Khan
He is the first veiled model chosen by the largest cosmetics company in the world, L’Oréal Paris Elvive. Uniquely, the hijab girl was chosen to campaign for hair care.Adrien Koskas, as general manager of L’Oréal Paris UK, is proud of Amena "L’Oréal Paris UK is proud and eager to launch a unique and bustling campaign for the hair care market."We also want to create a campaign that is very connected with our consumers through spokespeople who inject sincerity, emotion, and personality."Khan is one of the founders of Ardere Cosmetics and he is proud of his achievements in representing Muslim women in the beauty industry. He hopes to be able to correct a common misconception about the relationship Muslim women have with their hair, that hijab women can also experiment in their own way.
Tahera Rahman
He scored history for being the first hijab woman to work as a full-time TV news reporter on the main television news station in the United States (US). "I don't have people who look like me on TV, so I never thought that was a possibility," Tahera Rahman told Local 4 News in a feature about promotion. Tahera managed to get this prestigious job after many years of hard work. Previously, he was often refused a reporter until he decided to postpone TV reporting and take a job as a news producer behind the scenes at the Local 4 news station in the Quad Cities. His struggle and perseverance finally bear sweet fruit.
Ilhan Omar

Her family was named one of the "five families that changed the world as we know" by Vogue in 2018.
