The answer

Allah has made the obligatory upon Muslim women, as stated in His Almighty words: "O Prophet, tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to bring down over themselves [part] of their outer garments." He also commanded them not to display their adornment except to their relatives. If a woman is compelled to remove her hijab due to a valid, religiously recognized necessity, then it is excused, as stated in His Almighty words: "But whoever is forced, neither desiring [it] nor transgressing [its limit], there is no sin upon him," and "except for one who is forced [to renounce his religion] while his heart is secure in faith," and according to the rule: "Necessities make prohibited things permissible." However, if there is no such necessity, she must repent to Allah.
