A Christian asked a Muslim: why do your women cover their bodies and hair?
The Muslim smiled and got two sweets he opened the first one and kept the other one closed. He threw them both on to the dusty floor and asked the Christian if I asked you to take one of the sweets which one will you choose.
The Christian replied: the covered one
Then the Muslim said: in the same way that the wrapper protected its sweet from the dust the hijab protects our ladies from the sins and bad of this world.
The head scarf worn by Muslim women is called a Hijab. Burqa is the veil which some Muslim women wear covering the whole face. While Hijab is essential and compulsory for Muslim women, wearing of burqa is not, as it is a cultural and traditional garment worn by some Muslim women in remote areas of India, Pakistan and Saudi Arabia. More recently however it is getting popular in the West due to traditional and extremists Muslims and continues to be a controversial issue
In Islam, the Quran does not specifically mention a punishment for not wearing the hijab. The concept of hijab is interpreted and practiced differently among Muslims, and there is no universal punishment prescribed in the Quran for not wearing it.
The purpose of wearing a hijab is to fully cover your hair and your chest. i put on my hijab making sure two equal sides are hanging down then i take the right side and wrap on top of my head and place a pin to hold the side down.
Muslim women are not required, per religion to wear burqa or veil that covers her face. Religion, on the other hand, does not forbid wearing burqa. However, woman that selects wearing burqa should arrange her daily life activities accordingly. See related question below for more information.
No, you don't have to cover hands to wrists while wearing the Hijab. Face and hands to wrists remain uncovered.

The religion is a choice. If you made your choice to be Muslim, then you commit your self with Islam religion requirements, Allah (God in English) commands and prophet Muhammad teachings. Since hijab is a religion requirement, then there is no room to ask yourself whether you like it or not. It is a must and you should adopt wearing hijab, as a Muslim woman, since it is God command.
