Does a Muslim woman's lack of conviction regarding the hijab and her abandonment of it lead her to Hell, despite her commitment to prayer and fasting?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The hijab is a protection for women and safeguards them from evildoers. It closes the door to temptation and is an adherence to Allah Almighty's command. Abandoning the hijab is a great sin and a serious danger, and those who abandon it must sincerely repent. One cannot definitively assert entry into Paradise or Hellfire except with a clear religious text. The intelligent person should follow Allah Almighty's commands to avoid His prohibitions.
