Aturen noies a Barcelona per oferir-los posar-se el vel islàmic i «roba modesta» en un vídeo difós a TikTok

Un compte dedicat a la promoció de roba modesta atura noies pels carrers de Barcelona per oferir-los posar-se el hijab i roba de la que no «mostra les corbes del cos».

Una marca de «roba modesta» de Dubai ha publicat un vídeo enregistrat a Barcelona on noies musulmanes s’apropen a joves desconegudes pels carrers de Barcelona i els proposen posar-se un hijab i una abaya. L’escena és amable, breu i estèticament molt cuidada. Les interpel·lades rebutgen la proposta amb un somriure. No hi ha tensió ni insistència. Tot es desenvolupa amb educació i to lleuger. El vídeo es grava com si fos una acció espontània i natural.

Només aturen noies joves

L’escena es planteja com un repte viral: aconseguir que les dones occidentals acceptin la vestimenta islàmica. Però no aturen a qualsevol dona, només es dirigeixen a noies joves.

No s’explica en cap moment què simbolitza el hijab. Tampoc qui són les protagonistes. No es diu si és una acció comercial, religiosa o de promoció cultural. El vídeo es presenta com una interacció informal, però també transmet un missatge: que no passa res per vestir-se de forma religiosa.

El salafisme amable per conquerir les dones occidentals

El segon missatge que transmet l’escena és que amb insistència i amabilitat es pot aconseguir l’objectiu d’islamitzar la societat. Quan troben una noia que accedeix a posar-se la disfressa es presenta l’escena com un moment de felicitat, de creixement personal però esdevé una demostració de que es pot aconseguir.

L’estratègia forma part de la tendència islàmica a TikTok de presentar el hijab com una elecció lliure i empoderadora sense dir res de la pressió social o familiar que pot haver-hi al darrere. El salafisme ambale de TikTok busca seduïr les dones occidentals perquè busquin en la religió una manera de créixer i resoldre tots els seus problemes. Amb l’emotivitat i l’estètica cuidada es busca normalitzar la islamització com un procés positiu, associant-lo a l’acceptació, la bellesa i l’autoestima. Així, es reforça un discurs on la religió no només defineix la identitat, sinó que esdevé una eina per transformar l’entorn social a través dels cossos de les dones.

Marca de «roba modesta» de Dubai

El compte que publica el vídeo pertany a una marca de roba modesta amb seu a Dubai. La resta de contingut mostra models joves en escenaris de luxe, envoltades de vegetació tropical, terrasses amb vistes o carrers elegants. Sempre amb un estil triomfador i glamurós, el missatge que transmet és clar: portar hijab i abaya no només és correcte, sinó també modern, atractiu i vinculat a l’èxit.

El vídeo gravat a Barcelona s’allunya d’aquest registre. L’escenografia és urbana, quotidiana i aparentment espontània. No obstant això, la realització acurada i el to professional fan pensar que podria ser part d’una estratègia promocional. No és descartable que les noies que ofereixen el hijab formin part d’una acció planificada, possiblement contractades per la marca per fer d’ambaixadores o creadores de contingut.
