أعوذ بالله من الشيطان الرجيم
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

A`ūdhu billāhi min ash-shaitāni r-rajīm
b-ismi-llāhi r-raḥmāni r-raḥīm

Allah's (SWT) MERCY...

All things considered:

We are told to care for/look after the elderly;
Imams are advised not to read long surahs if there are elderly people in the congregation lest it will cause them difficulty;
With age comes diminished abilities and in some cases inability to do certain things;
Those with disabilities have certain exemptions and modifications in their duties...

The permission to remove hijab is a concession Allah (SWT) has granted elderly women who may need it. To me, this is not an issue that we need to discuss any further.

May Allah (SWT) forgive me if I've erred.
