What is the ruling on a woman who performed tawaf and sa'y covering her face with a burqa?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh! A woman performed tawaf and sa'y for 'Umrah, and she had covered her face with a burqa while ignorant of the ruling. What is required of her?

Answer:
If she was ignorant and was not informed of it until the 'Umrah was completed, then she owes nothing; because this is an unintentional error, and Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) says:
And there is no blame upon you for that in which you have erred but [only for] what your hearts intended.وَلَيْسَ عَلَيْكُمْ جُنَاحٌ فِيمَا أَخْطَأْتُم بِهِ وَلَٰكِن مَّا تَعَمَّدَتْ قُلُوبُكُمْ
[Al-Ahzab 33:5]
