Most people wonder how Muslim women are satisfied with  putting on  their hijab (the veil) and why they have been doing so ?

The answer is simply that  Muslims are satisfied with the duties of Islam,  and they believe that  Islam is the true religion from Allah (God) and it was revealed to his prophet Muhammad-peace be upon him-, and they believe in Islam  by their heart. Therefore, it is their minds  that will lead them  to Islam. If the mind has  driven you to the fact that Islam is the pure religion , then you will have to believe in it and in all its duties. This system is because Muslims know quite well that Islam  has been the religion from Allah Who is The Most Knowing and The Most Aware of all the creatures and their interests.

The other part of the question includes the purpose of putting on the hijab. Looking deeply at the merits and the drawbacks, it has advantages to both men and women. As for women, it makes them as a precious jewel, a protected shell that can not be  touched. Such a valuable jewel is protected from being stared at and from the eyes of prying people whose job is to stare at women's faces.

On the other hand, women like to be favored by their husbands and not to be compared by the beauty of other women who are more beautiful than them. As a result, the hijab is a great chance for a woman as her husband can not see other women. Otherwise, he may leave her and go to  others who might be me more beautiful than her. Furthermore, it is also  helpful to   men as they will keep their  energy and desires to their wives instead of wasting their energy in looking at other women. Moreover, a man may see a woman whose beauty is more than his wife's and then fall in love with her. This, in turn, will destroy the relation between the couples, corrupt the martial relation and increase the misery of women and men as well. Therefore, stooping such a problem is to be solved by Islam from the beginning and that women should  put on their veil ( the hijab) and men should lower their gaze.
