Why Do Women Wear Hijab?
Muslim women choose to wear the hijab or other coverings for various reasons, primarily related to personal belief and identity. For many, it represents a divine commandment about modesty and a personal commitment to God, often adopted after puberty. In the U.S., particularly post-9/11, the hijab has become a symbol of Islamic identity, with some women wearing it to express their faith. Additionally, some Arab or Muslim women see the hijab as a way to assert their cultural identity and political affiliations.

On the other hand, some Muslim women opt not to wear the hijab, viewing it as a cultural rather than a religious requirement. They believe that modesty can be expressed in other ways and prioritize their internal spiritual relationship with God. Despite differing choices, most Muslim women agree that wearing the hijab should be a personal decision, reflecting individual beliefs and values.
