Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner asks: What is the ruling on a woman in ihram wearing a ghutah, which is a piece of cloth placed on the face and has no openings for the eyes, but it may have been made specifically for the face?

Answer:
No, it is not permissible to wear a sewn garment specifically for the face, which a woman in ihram wears. Rather, she should cover her face with a khimar or a garment. As for a sewn garment for the face, she should not wear it.
