What is the ruling on removing the hijab for compelling reasons, such as a job requirement, or for the purpose of marriage because men prefer beautiful women?
It is not permissible to remove the hijab for the sake of work or marriage, for the hijab is an obligation and a duty upon the Muslim woman, not a supererogatory act or a voluntary one that can be abandoned for any reason. Furthermore, it is not an impediment to marriage; rather, it is a sign of modesty and chastity, qualities that men desire in their wives.
