Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, the questioner says: A woman sells veils for women that are burqas, and are wide at the eyes. Is it permissible for her to do so?
Answer:
O brothers, the women in this land have a dress that has been agreed upon for centuries, so our women remain in their dress. They do not wear burqas or niqabs; they wear complete covering and cover their faces completely, so they remain in this blessing and this complete covering and this modesty.
