Wearing hijab (that is head, hair, and neck cover except face) by Females is an Islam teaching per Quran and prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) rules. No ruling per God commands for males to wear hijab although some men in North Africa wear hijab as a local tradition (not per religious reasons).

It is compulsory per religion. Refer to question below.

Answer:

First of all, because God (Alllah) commanded it. this is in Judaism and Christianity, as well. At least, it was in those traditions - before people removed it. have you ever seen a painting of Mary without a cover on her head?

Secondly, it is a protection for women and a protection for society. For women because they are human beings - not sex objects. The scarf on the head (and the modest covering of her body) says: "treat me with respect". For society because all the prohibited sexual activities that take place is because men become excited when they see a woman's body.

As your hair is one of your main features it attracts mostly men to look at women... the headscarf prevents you to be attractive for the wrong people.

Should cristains wear a hijab?

Yes and Christians already do wear hijab. Hijab is simply a covering. Their 'hijab' covers what they consider to be their modesty. That generally varies with time and place. In some parts of the Christian world the hijab includes a head covering, but that is on the decline. For Western European Christians hijab covers most of the body, but does not include the hair, the cleavage or the legs up to the mid thigh. Christian women's hijab is more extensive than men's at present.
