Question

What is the hijab and how does it link Christians and Jews to Muslims.

Answer 1

Answer:

The hijab is a religious veil worn by Muslim women in the presence of any male outside of their immediate family, which usually covers the hair, head and chest. The term can refer to any hair, head, face, or body covering worn by Muslim women that conforms to Islamic standards of modesty.

However, it is not only prescriped in the Qur'an but also in the Bible and in the Jewish Talmud. For example , many painting of the Virgin Mary represent her with a veil covering her head  .
