Is it an exaggeration to dress a girl in the hijab when she is seven years old?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, my daughter is in her seventh year of age, and I am dressing her in the hijab. Is this considered an exaggeration?

Answer:
This is not an exaggeration; rather, it is part of her upbringing. You are training her in the hijab and accustoming her to it. May Allah reward you with good, especially if she is beautiful and pretty, or has a large build, or is a source of temptation. There is no doubt that accustoming her to the hijab and protecting her is required in this case. Yes.
