A Woman Reciting the Qur'an with an Uncovered Head and Prostration of Recitation

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We say, Professor Aziz, of course, the Qur'an is established by the permission of Allah the Exalted.

Answer:
It is permissible for a woman to read the Qur'an with her head uncovered if there are no non-mahram men present. If her mahrams or women are present, or if no one is present, she may uncover her head and read the Qur'an. As for the prostration (sajdah), the most cautious course is that she covers herself, because it was said that the prostration is a prayer, and the ruling of prayer applies. So the most cautious course is that she covers herself for the prostration. Yes.
