Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner asks: Is the face of a deceased person in ihram uncovered, or is only his head not covered?

Answer:
His head is not covered; that is what is established. Some narrations state, "Do not cover his head or his face," but the well-known and famous narration states, "Do not cover his head."
