The ruling on a woman praying with her head uncovered in her home

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: What is the ruling on a woman praying with her head uncovered, knowing that she is in her home?

Answer:
No, it is not permissible; her prayer is not valid. If any part of her hair is exposed, her prayer is not valid, unless she is ignorant or did not know about it, so she prayed and did not know. But if she did it intentionally, her prayer is not valid. Yes.
Allah accepts the prayer of a woman who has reached the age of menstruation only with a head covering.يقبل الله صلاة حائض أي من بلغت المحيض إلا بخمار.
Yes.
