What is the ruling on wearing masks over the mouth for a person in the state of ihram?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : What is the ruling on wearing masks over the mouth for a person in the state of ihram?

The Shaykh : There is nothing wrong with it.

The questioner : ...

The Shaykh : There is nothing wrong with it either, because the hadith of Ibn Abbas:
cover neither his head nor his face لا تخمروا رأسه ولا وجهه
Sahih Muslim 1206f
Many scholars have mentioned that this addition is anomalous. So whoever authenticates it says: the face should not be covered. And whoever says it is anomalous does not act upon it. Yes.
