Ijab(veil)

Shaibu Ezekiel 1993 (sedicabubakar3@gmail.com)



I died before
But this forever
I was treated like a rehab
Beacuse I forgot my ijab (veil)
At home
They say I have sinned against
Religion
Is true I am unlucky to be a woman
I was treated with truth with disability
Because I forgot my ijab (veil) at home
