Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The third question of Fatwa No. ( 4470 )
Q3: At what age is it obligatory for a girl to wear the hijab, and is it obligatory to impose it on schoolgirls even if they dislike it?
A3: When a girl reaches puberty, it is obligatory for her to wear what covers her 'awrah (the part of the body that must be covered), which includes the face, head, and hands, whether she is a student or not, and upon
her guardian is the obligation to compel her to do so if she dislikes it, and he should accustom her to it before puberty so that she becomes used to it and it becomes easy for her to comply. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
