Pakistan’s Dr. Shahnaz becomes first Hijabi female pilot in the world

Pakistani Dr Shahnaz Laghari is the world’s first Hijabi female pilot who flew an aircraft wearing a veil.

For this achievement, her name has also been listed in the Guinness Book of World Records.

She is also a good social worker in her community and runs a few training centers to empower women in society.

Born in Lahore, she began her political career as an independent leader and first contested in the General Elections 2013 from Lahore but could not succeed. According to the local media of Lahore Shahnaz joined Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid (PMLQ) political party in May 2018.

In one of her interviews, she was asked about how she carried it in every department of her life. Quite impressively she went on to explain about her experience with Hijab, how people behaved around her, and what difficulties she faced because of it.

She started the interview by thanking Allah for giving women the liberty to do what they want to do without any limitations. She mentioned how she never faced any hindrance from her conviction. When the host asked her about outside limitations, she agreed to be opposed.

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.
