Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, the questioner says: We wore face masks while in ihram, and when we learned the ruling, we took them off. Is there anything required of us?
Answer:
There is nothing wrong with wearing a face mask while you are in ihram, because it is on the face, not on the head. What is forbidden is covering the head, but there is nothing wrong with covering the face. So, there is nothing wrong with wearing face masks for one in ihram. Yes.
