Hijab is a type of veil that is traditionally worn by many Muslim women. Hijab is worn to cover head and chest. It is compulsory for a Muslim woman to wear hijab in front of a Non-Mahram. It is worn as a symbol of modesty and privacy. In some terms, Hijab is defined as a type of cloth that cover everything except face, hands, and feet.
Wearing Hijab was required by the Law of Saudi Arabia and other Gulf nations. Some non-Muslim countries have passed a law banning the use of Hijab while it is allowed in many countries. In many parts of the world, many girls are pressurized to wear or not to wear hijab. [irp]
