Do women pray with the men at 'Arafah, even though they are in a state of ihram with their faces uncovered?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : If a person prays at 'Arafah, do the women pray with him...?
The Shaykh : Did not the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) pray with the women? This is better. When he finishes the prayer, he makes it clear to them that it is obligatory to cover the face, and that this applies even to women, because some women find it difficult to accept that the ihram of a woman in ihram is on her face, as they say.
