Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, this is a questioner from outside this country who says: In our country, the state prohibits the niqab for female students in schools. Is it permissible for the female student to uncover her face for the sake of studying, or should she not continue?

Answer:
In front of men, she does not uncover her face, and she does not obey the state; she does not obey the state. If they force her, she does not study in this school; she goes to a private school or another school, or she does not study at all. What is the education of the woman? It is not necessary except for her to learn the extent of her religious affairs only. Yes.
