Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : What is the ruling on a woman uncovering her face? Perhaps he means uncovering the face in front of non-mahram men, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh : Yes. A woman uncovering her face in front of men who are not her mahram is forbidden. We have explained this in a small treatise called: The Treatise on Hijab. We mentioned in it evidence from the Qur'an and the Sunnah. And the meaning is that when a person looks at it, the truth becomes clear to him. Yes.
The questioner : This is another question regarding the hijab.
The Shaykh : One last one.
The questioner : There is a lot of it, O Shaykh, do you allow for an extension?
The Shaykh : What time is it now?
The questioner : Ten and a quarter.
The Shaykh : Ten and twelve. What Allah willed.
The questioner : Do you give permission, O Shaykh?
The Shaykh : Yes?
The questioner : It is the right of the brothers coming from far away, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh : Fine, may Allah reward you, if Allah wills.
