N2  - Wearing hijab is an obligation for every Muslim woman, as clearlystated in the Qur'an. Hijab is defined as a wide veil that women use to coverthe aurat (covering head and neck down to thechest). It is believed that the correct use of hijab brings benefits and virtues to the wearers, especially inits religious attitudes and behavior. Thus, wearing hijab is a representationof religiosity. Religiosity can be interpreted as the degree of attachment of aperson to the religion and gives a positive impact in social life. Religiosityconsists of five dimensions, including: dimension of Aqedah/ideological, ritualistic, experiential, knowledge, andpractice dimension (Glock, C. Y & Stark, 1965).The use of hijab forMuslim women can be considered as a form of being religious. Nevertheless,the development of modernity that strongly strike society makes the hijabfunction no longer as the basis of religious obedience, but rather to follow thedemands of modernity that lead to the behavior of showing off the aurat. Hijab gradually losses itsfunction and becomes one of the complementary materials in dressing. The use ofhijab as described above is known by the term slanghijab, or hijab that is notin accordance with Islamic law (syar’i). This is evident from the phenomenon ofwidespread use of slang hijab amongfemale students. The influence of mass media be one of the factors causing theuse of hijab has shifted the good value both of its functions moreover themodel it offers.This study discussed about the meaning of religiosity among women wearerof slang hijab in a majorstate university in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Data were collected by qualitativemethod, in particular the phenomenological approach. Three respondents were interviewed in depth to reveal their meaning ofreligiosity. The results showed that basically all respondents had a goodreligious understanding including the obligations of being a Muslim women.However, the understanding of the religion tend to be interpreted in asubjective and flexible way. So it is not surprising if there are many varietyof opinions, especially about the obligation to wearing the hijab. In addition,cultural, racial, and climatic differences between Indonesia and Arabs are thereason for the justification of respondents wearing hijab that are notaccording to Islamic orders. Finally, the cynical view of the opposite sex alsogives a negative impact so that the use of hijab according to religious ordersincreasingly unimaginable.
