The questioner : He says that the women in our villages work in the farms, and because our land is difficult to access, the woman is excused from covering her face, meaning she covers herself. What is your opinion on this? May Allah guide you.
The Shaykh : There is no harm in a woman uncovering her face in her field or farm if there are no non-mahram men around her. If there are non-mahram men around her, it is obligatory for her to cover her face. If there is a road or path by which people pass, she can turn her face away from the path and road and keep it uncovered.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : Thank you, may Allah reward you.
