This is an honest and truth fact and now i am earning earning and my parents are happy.Have I done anything wrong?

Answer

It may well be that no man has approached you to fulfil his carnal desires, what guarantee have you that no man has thrown lustful glances at you?

According to Shari'ah, a female should maintain strict Hijaab. Kindly refer to Veil at www.jamiat.org.za/isinfo/w_veil.html
