Question:
What do the scholars and experts of shari’ah say regarding wearing the hijab in Ramadan? Can a person intend to only wear it in this month?
Answer:
It is wajib for a woman to be in hijab both in and outside the month of Ramadan. The hijab of a woman is that she is fully covered except for her hands and face. The clothing she wears should not accentuate her figure, be tight, or see through.
The month of Ramadan is one of forgiveness, reward, and an opportunity for us all to return to the blessed court of Allah ﷻ. It is a month where we aim to work on ourselves, correct our shortcomings and further improve our good traits. When Allah ﷻ blesses us with this increased awareness in the month of Ramadan, we must have a firm attention to continue such actions after the month of Ramadan as well. A sign of the acceptance of good deeds is that we are given the opportunity to do them again and again.
And Allah ﷻ knows the best
