Just the fact that hijab hides corruption is enough for the newspaper Javan

The young newspaper alone concealing corruption with hijab is enough.

The young newspaper has written that one of the doubts and ambiguities raised about women’s hijab in society is that they say if religious people freely maintain their hijab completely and non-religious people freely go without it – as we currently see in some countries in the Persian Gulf region – in such conditions, the line between good and bad is easier to distinguish. But in countries like Iran, where authorities have imposed hijab as a requirement for good and bad, people do not recognize each other. In other words, bad and corrupt individuals are under the same veil that good people are placed under. In short, hijab only causes bad and healthy individuals to have superficial similarities and the corrupt individuals under the cover of hijab do whatever they want.

In response to this question and the ambiguity that arises about the philosophy of hijab, it should be noted that the goal of religion for managing society is to eliminate the grounds for corruption. This means that first, we must do something to prevent corruption from occurring. In the next stage, if corruption is found in societies, it should remain hidden under other layers, meaning the publicity of corruption, which we call spreading and proliferation of corruption, is very harmful.

Observing the hijab in society is also aimed at preventing public and blatant corruption. Even if we accept the premise of the question raised is correct, it must be said that this function of the hijab, which conceals corruption, is perceived positively for the Islamic society.
