What is the ruling on a girl wearing the head abaya (niqab) in a society that views a girl who wears it as ill-mannered?

We advise you to take the initiative to wear the niqab seeking the pleasure of Allah, and not to pay attention to intrusive thoughts; for the actions of the people of falsehood regarding the truth do not prevent its performance. We hope that your wearing of the niqab will be a cause for correcting the mistaken image of niqab-wearing women in your environment.
