I am just wondering, if a person converts to Ismaili Islam from another sect of Islam, would it be required of them to give up wearing the hijab?

I just saw this on tumblr: http://s3.amazonaws.com/data.tumblr.com/tumblr_ly8m1fSoCb1qghthno1_1280.png?AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAJ6IHWSU3BX3X7X3Q&Expires=1327433291&Signature=f3EITklppH4JkUDTUjAqUOys3zg%3D I got this from an email from a friend. Please circulate… Assalamualaikum… I hope you are fin...

My bad sister, sorry for my big mistake. Thanks again for your decent explanation, one more question here, what is "Turbah" and if you not mind to tell us why you converted from Sunny to Ithna ashari? both Sunni and Shi'a wish peace on Prophet Muhammad (SAWS) and Ahlul Bait. So do we Isma...
