Mu Lan Becomes Muslim — The Silk Awakening
She once wore silk
for the beauty of its flow,
for the legacy it carried
from grandmother to mother to daughter.
But when Mu Lan found Islam,
silk became something more.
It became a cover of intention,
a veil between her and the world—
not of hiding,
but of honoring.
She chose to wrap herself in what felt like prayer—
a softness that reminded her
faith is not harsh,
faith is tender,
faith is dignified.
Every thread whispered
“La ilaha illallah”
as she folded it with care.
Not to impress.
But to submit.
Now when she walks,
it is not the silk they notice—
but the peace she wears.
The purpose in her steps.
The light in her silence.
This is not just fabric.
This is Mu Lan silk.
Woven with heritage,
worn for Allah.
