She mentioned how strongly she was opposed by her peers who make a point that “Hijabi women” should stay home, they should leave their Hijab at home and not bring it to work.
Grateful for being given the opportunity despite all the opposition, she couldn’t help but constantly thank God. She says that she remained headstrong and never let her opposers get the better of her.
Indeed it was her conviction that got her in the Guinness Book of World Records.
