As an alum volunteer working with collegiate chapters, I certainly have met women who have cultural and religious rituals that are an integral part of who they are and the life they lead. This shows depth of character and commitment which are clearly strengths in any potential new member. I think the original poster should attend a Recruitment Information Session on their campus to get a feel for what the experience is like. Perhaps introduce yourself to the Greek Advisor or PH President and ask them if they are aware of any muslim chapter members that perhaps you can grab coffee with to ask if they've experienced any challenges. Also, you may want to compare/contrast the different experiences of Formal vs Informal Recruitment depending on what makes sense to you and what setting you feel you will have the best opportunity to present yourself in.

Just my 2 cents. I wish you best of luck!
