Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This woman asks, saying: If her guardian prevents her from covering her face, is it permissible for her to obey him?

Answer:
No, there is no obedience to a created being in disobedience to the Creator. If her husband is pleased with her and she is veiled, then that is for him. If he is not pleased with her, he divorces her, and Allah will provide for her someone better than him. Yes.
