Will some women go to hell for not wearing Hijab?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

Wearing full Hijab is compulsory for females just like praying Salaah, fasting, etc. This means that it is an  Order from Allah. Every Muslim must respect and follow the orders of Allah as much as possible.

Wassalam.
Can a female teenager go on school camps if she stays in full Hijab, her cabin will consist of only females, and she is able to complete all the daily prayers?
Seyed Ali Shobayri

Bismillah, 

Asalamu Alaykom, 

If she can maintain hijab and stay with the Islamic boundaries, then there isn't an issue. If for example there may be some activities such as music and singing, she must avoid such things and only partake in activities which don't go against Islamic teachings and hijab. 
 

May Allah grant you success 
When someone, who has an apparent prejudice against Muslims, asks me why Muslim women observe the Hijab, what should be my crisp and concise answer?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

You can tell him that Hijab is the modest dress of woman which keeps her respect and dignity as a valuable and honorable human being. Even many Christian nuns wear similar dress like our Muslim women Hijab. 
Civilized human beings always had covered their bodies unlike uncivilized who were in the jungles with out proper dress. Quran has mentioned the reason of Hijab as : To be known so that they will not be harmed ( Sura 33, verse 59).
Wassalam.
Is it compulsory to frown in the face of sin or express displeasure when witnessing a sin, even if it will not have any effect, especially in cases like the Hijab where a lot of women in the West do not observe it?

Thank you for your question. One of the conditions for amr bi al-ma'ruf and nahy an al-mukar is that it should have an effect. So if you are sure certain actions will not have an effect the conditions to carry out that action have not been fulfilled.

May you always be successful
