Blue Hijab Day is Muslim Womens way of raising awareness about Autism and Autism Spectrum Disorders. RSVP on the facebook event page to let us know you are participating, and invite your friends to do the same.

Wear a blue hijab (or another kind of blue scarf or hat if you don’t wear hijab) on World Autism Awareness day: Friday, April 2nd. Print this tag and pin it to your hijab to let people know why you’re wearing blue.

Download the english flier or the Arabic flier and distribute it at your Masjid (Mosque), School, Club, Work etc. put it on a noticeboard, in a sisters area, hand it out to friends, show it to family, write about it on your blog, facebook, website or in your Newspaper or Magazine. Wherever and however you can, let’s spread awareness about Autism.

There are probably millions of us with children on the spectrum, or who are on the spectrum ourselves, Autism affects about 67 million people worldwide! And there is not enough conversation about the Autistic Spectrum in our community. Let’s start that conversation the Jummah (Friday) of April 2nd 2010.
