The answer

It is not permissible to remove the hijab for the sake of work or marriage, for the hijab is an obligation and a duty upon the Muslim woman, not a supererogatory act or a voluntary one that can be abandoned for any reason. Furthermore, it is not an impediment to marriage; rather, it is a sign of modesty and chastity, qualities that men desire in their wives.
