It is
necessary for an adult Muslim
woman to wear Hijab whenever
she is in the presence of non-Mahrams
(marriageable men).
Referring to this, Allah
Almighty says: (And
tell the believing women to
lower their gaze and be
modest, and to display of
their adornment only that
which is apparent, and to draw
their veils over their bosoms,
and not to reveal their
adornment save to their own
husbands or fathers or
husbands fathers, or their
sons or their husbands' sons,
or their brothers or their
brothers' sons or sisters'
sons, or their women, or their
slaves, or male attendants who
lack vigor, or children who
know naught of women's
nakedness. And let them not
stamp their feet so as to
reveal what they hide of their
adornment. And turn unto Allah
together, O believers, in
order that ye may succeed.)
(An-Nur 24: 31)
He
Almighty also says: (O
Prophet! Tell thy wives and
thy daughters and the women of
the believers to draw their
cloaks close round them (when
they go abroad). That will be
better, that so they may be
recognized and not annoyed.
Allah is ever Forgiving,
Merciful.)
(Al-Ahzab 33: 59)
There is
no exception for school,
sports, etc. If a grown up
girl goes to a school where
there are male and female
students, then she is obliged
to wear the Hijab.
Muslim
girls should have sports with
girls. Sports that brings
about intermingling between
men and women are not allowed
[for fear of temptation and
immorality]. Muslim girls who
play with other girls and no
non-Mahrams watch them
do not have to wear Hijab.
