The Obligation of Hijab for One Who Has Lost Her Mind

Question
A 27-year-old girl, but she has lost her mind. Does she have to wear hijab? Perhaps men might see her without knowing her and become attracted to her?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: It is obligatory for her guardians to cover her; to conceal her private parts except for the face and hands; due to the temptation it brings, and the sin upon them for that; because she is not obligated, and God knows best.
