Hello and peace,
Even though you don’t have any intentions to come to Islam at present, you seem to be very open, especially for the sake of raising your daughter. Whilst it is all quite new to you and unfamiliar even, there is a lot you can do to make things easier for yourself, and your family, especially your daughter.
It is pleasing to know that despite your differences in religious beliefs, you seem to be happy to support her in her journey as a Muslim in regards to things like modest dress and wearing hijab. Living in the West, these are challenges that adults face, so you are doing a great job to prepare for it from a young age.
The 2 main things you can do to support yourself now is to read more about Islam yourself and to talk with others in the same situation.
Reading about Islam will place you in a stronger position to educate her about these things in a way that you feel is most appropriate to her age. If you understand the reasons why we encouraged to dress modestly and wear a hijab, it will be easier for you to support her in doing so.
Furthermore, if you understand it, you will be better placed to explain it to her. If she understands why she should dress this way then she will be able to do so confidently. This is especially important in the West as she will be likely questioned by her peers about why she is dressing that way. If she understands why and doesn’t feel forced, but does it of her own volition then it will be easier for her. Secondarily, this will also clarify things for you on your own journey.
There are many online groups for Muslim mums that you might be interested in joining. Even as a non-Muslim, you be welcomed to address the concerns you have regarding raising your daughter in a way that is compatible with Islam. Here you will be able to discuss challenges such as encouraging modest dress and wearing the hijab and how other mums in the same position have dealt with these challenges or introduced these things from the start.
These are places where you can get this personal advice from people going through the same without having to interpret what you have read with a fear that you may be a misunderstanding.
May God guide you on the straight path and help you in raising your daughter successfully.
