Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on a woman wearing the niqab and then covering it with a cloth while in ihram?
Answer:
No, it is not permissible. Is it permissible for her to wear the niqab under any circumstances? Because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)Muwatta Malik 20:17 [stated that] a woman does not wear the niqab. Whether she puts something over it or not, she covers her face with something other than the niqab. What is the niqab for?
