The Favorable Gaze at the Khath'amian Woman and the Unveiling of Her Face

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
It was said to the Shaykh regarding the hadith: In the narrations of its wording, it is stated that she was beautiful-faced, and likewise his statement that she was looking at him. Does this not imply that she was one who uncovered her face?

Answer:
She was looking at him from behind the veil. The veil is that which prevents looking. As for her having uncovered her face, I have not seen that, nor have they mentioned it.
