What is the 'awrah (part of the body that must be covered) of the Muslim woman in relation to the disbeliever?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : As for the Muslim woman, is it permissible for her to uncover her head, for example, in front of a non-Muslim woman...?

The Shaykh : No, the non-Muslim woman is like a man in relation to the Muslim woman. Therefore, it is not permissible for a woman to uncover any part of her 'awrah (part of the body that must be covered) in front of a disbeliever woman except the face and the hands; because they are not part of the 'awrah (part of the body that must be covered).
