Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner asks: What is the manner of a woman wiping over her head covering? Is it prescribed for her to do so when there is a need, or is it in all her circumstances?
Answer:
It is not permissible for a woman to wear the turban because she is forbidden from imitating men. However, if she secures her head covering, if she secures the head covering by tucking it under her chin so that it is difficult to remove, then she may wipe over it by analogy to the turban. For this reason, the jurists say: "and over the head coverings of women that are tucked under their throats." Yes.
