"I infuse influencing into my lifestyle, I make sure I take every brand like it’s my first and I try to create content that flows naturally and can be related to my followers in the best way possible"

"Knowing that I can achieve more is what inspires me"

"The way Barbie dresses is very skimpy and different and there’s nothing wrong with it. I just wanted to give another option for Muslim girls like me"

"Barbie has created a new phenomenon, celebrating femininity, independence and female power"

"It is really important to have a good heart and I try to check my heart all the time just to make sure I am being good and not forget that, as it is really close and tied to my religion"

"We can say all we want about a woman's place or role in any given society but I really just wish it was something that can be implemented. In Islam, the true place of women comes from a place of strength, respect and a higher status, as I am sure it is for Nigeria and in the arts too—we have so many examples to support this but it is still upsetting when we conveniently forget all these because we do not want to shake the table."

"I want Hijarbie to inspire the Muslim girl child. It's about having a doll that looks like her, that represents her own cultural and religious background."

"But the point of Hijarbie is not only to show how beautiful and trendy modest style can be,it's also about showing girls who may wear a hijab themselves that they are no less beautiful or special than Barbie herself."

"I think the most important thing to have as a Muslim or a non-Muslim is a very good character.The hijab is actually more about modesty than fashion but who says you can’t incorporate both together? Fashion with faith."

"I am not saying we should disregard sex differences, i am only advocating that boys and girls be given equal opportunities to develop themselves as standing up straight to pee doesn’t necessarily make anybody smarter, or dumber."

"I love my femininity and would always embrace and enhance as best I can, but I believe that shouldn’t box me or constrain me to a set of rules."

"I am all out for teaching young girls and inspiring women to break away from age-long societal norms, constructs, and stereotypes that have limited their progress by showing them that they can do anything and be whomever they choose to be regardless of society’s dictates."

"Being a gender advocate is definitely not for the faint hearted."

"The educational institution, as a citadel of learning, should not be a place where societal constructs are amplified or embraced."

"I don’t think we would have been so hard on the woman if we stopped tying acts of service to gender."

"When men and women combine and form close bonds, we’re stronger and more effective, like a bundle of broomsticks connected together by a single cord."
