Famed Hollywood star Angelina Jolie is no stranger to the Islamic attire. The mother of six is often seen clad in a headscarf and burqa during her visits around the Middle East. “The sun doesn’t lose its beauty when covered by the clouds. The same way your beauty doesn’t fade when being covered by hijab,” the actor once said.
