The Age of Wearing the Hijab
At what age does a young girl begin to wear the hijab?
Generally, a girl must cover herself when she reaches the age of nine. Before that, she may not be of an age that attracts desire, or she may be of an age that attracts desire depending on the girl's development.Perhaps she is ten years old, and we say: She does not cover herself because she is young and not of an age that attracts desire. So, when a girl becomes a target of desire and is looked at, it is obligatory for her to cover herself, but generally this is at the age of nine.
