What is prescribed for women regarding covering the face when they enter the state of ihram, and their evidence is that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said

The questioner : May Allah reward the honorableThe Shaykh : The callers to Islam and those who advise are suffering from a great matter, which is that they see women uncovering themselves during Hajj and 'Umrah, even during the tawaf or while standing at 'Arafah or otherwise. What is prescribed for women when they enter the state of ihram regarding covering the face, especially since we see some who cover themselves when not in ihram uncover their faces when they enter ihram, claiming that a woman's ihram is in her face. They argue with the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his companions): They say that if the woman is prohibited from wearing the niqab, then covering the face is even more so. What is the response we can give them? And if this answer will be written, with the permission of Allah the Exalted, we would like it to be detailed because of the severity of the suffering from this?

The Shaykh : In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
There is no doubt that the callers to Islam and those who enjoin good and forbid evil are distressed by the actions of some women, whether in the season of Hajj or outside of it, regarding tabarruj (displaying adornment), applying perfume, and uncovering the face and hands, and perhaps part of the arm. This is a matter that requires patience and perseverance, as Allah Blessed and Exalted is He said: and as Luqman said to his son: It is obligatory for women when they go out to the markets to go out without perfume, without displaying their adornment, and without uncovering their faces, hands, or feet, to the extent possible. When a woman enters the state of ihram, it is forbidden for her to wear the niqab, meaning to wear the face veil, because wearing the niqab on the face is like a man wearing a turban on his head. For this reason, some scholars stated: "A woman's ihram is in her face", meaning that the covering of the face for a woman is in the position of the covering of the head for a man. So she does not wear the niqab. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his companions) did not say "do not cover your head," he said: and the niqab is more specific than covering the head. "The prohibition of the specific does not imply the prohibition of the general". Accordingly, it is obligatory for the woman, when she passes by men or men pass by her, to cover her face. This is required during the tawaf and the sa'y, and when walking in the markets, because she will pass by men and men will pass by her. It is obligatory for her to fear Allah Mighty and Majestic, especially since she is in exalted places, in exalted times, and in worship of Allah Mighty and Majestic. If she is in ihram, she must fear her Lord. And Allah the Exalted said: A woman uncovering her face before men is open sinfulness. Let the Muslim woman fear Allah, and let her preserve her religion, her modesty, and her covering, so that she may be obedient to the command of Allah and His Messenger. As for wearing gloves, it is commanded when not in ihram, but in ihram it is prohibited, based on the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his companions): I say that wearing gloves is prescribed because it was the custom of the women of the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) in the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his companions), and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his companions) approved it because of the completeness of the covering. Yes.
