Yes, mainstream Islamic teachings consider not wearing the hijab a sin, often classified as a major one, because it's seen as disobeying a direct command from Allah in the Quran and Sunnah, involving modesty, piety, and seeking protection from divine punishment; however, the severity (major vs. minor) is sometimes debated, with some emphasizing it's disobedience to Allah regardless, and the ultimate judgment rests with God, but it is a serious act of defiance, not just a preference.
3- Muslim women are not allowed to remove their veils in the presence of non-Mahram men or when leaving their homes. 4- If a Muslim woman removes her hijab when leaving her home, it is considered a sin and a violation of the law requiring God's wrath and punishment unless she repents.
Also, in Christianity, the term 'hijab' isn't used. Instead, it's referred to as a head cover. As 1 Corinthians 11:1-16 states, “5 But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head—it is the same as having her head shaved.
Your prayers may not be answered by Allah if you don't cover mandatory parts of your body. A prayer time will be passed away and you won't be able to offer salat because you don't have hijab.
The use of the hijab, voluntarily and involuntarily, has grown globally since the 1970s, with religious Muslims viewing it as a symbol of modesty and faith; it is also worn as a form of adornment.
The Quran clearly states that there is no compulsion in religion (2:256). Women who choose to wear hijab do not make the decision lightly. In fact many women testify that they faced great animosity from their Muslim or non-Muslim families when they decided to cover.
A Muslim woman can remove her hijab in front of her mahram (permanently unmarriageable relatives like fathers, brothers, grandfathers) and women (both Muslim and non-Muslim, with caution), at home, or in women-only spaces where she feels safe, but must keep it on in public and in front of non-mahram men to cover her hair and body as an act of modesty, with exceptions for genuine fear or necessity.
There is no compulsion in religion. If you are not doing something out of devotion to Allah then that act has really no meaning. Its you who will decide. The head covering or so called Hijab is not the original idea.
The 8 conditions of hijab are guidelines for Islamic modest dress, requiring the covering to be: 1. Cover the entire body (excluding face/hands, by most views). 2. Loose and roomy, not tight. 3. Thick and opaque, not see-through. 4. Not an adornment in itself, but simple. 5. Not perfumed. 6. Not resembling men's clothing. 7. Not resembling non-believers' clothing. 8. Not for fame or vanity, but for modesty.

So, do you have to wear hijab when reading Quran? No, you don't, unless there are non-mahram men in the room. However, you'll have to wear the hijab and face the qibla when doing a recitation Sajdah because it's considered a part of a prayer.
