What is the ruling on removing the hijab due to hearing impairment and ear inflammation resulting from wearing glasses and the hijab together?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The hijab is a religious obligation that a woman must adhere to. She is not permitted to neglect it for the slightest reason. One should seek ways to mitigate any harm caused by wearing it, such as using headphones or wearing glasses underneath it, or treating inflammations. It is not permissible to remove it under a pretext that can be avoided and remedied.
