Is the reward for observing hijab in Iran the same as for observing hijab in Australia?

In Iran, observing hijab is required by law to a certain extent (see Wikipedia ). This means women are forced to do it (to some degree), that observing hijab is ordinary, and that many women there seem to love and encourage observing hijab there. Many shops in Iran sell hijab-related clothing items, and it's easier to buy clothes that are both fashionable and modest. In contrast, Australia doesn't have such a law, and a woman exposing her awrah is an everyday occurrence, with very few women doing otherwise. Indeed, observing hijab would render you the odd one out, and hijab-related shops are rare. Moreover, Australia has some unsettling anti-Islam prejudice, e.g. from anti-Islam groups (e.g. the True Blue Crew ), and hijabis may be subject to harassment to violence: > ...the headscarf has become a lightning rod for attacking Muslim women. -- Gillian Triggs, president of the Australian Human Rights Commission, The Guardian (See also Islamophobia in Australia , Wikipedia.) This makes me wonder if this difference in societal attitudes is taken into account... **Question**: Is the reward for observing hijab in Iran the same as for observing hijab in Australia? On one hand, observing hijab is practically far easier to do in Iran than in Australia. On the other hand, it's essentially the same act of worship.
