Is covering half of the face considered sufficient hijab?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
You also ask about the ruling on a Muslim woman who fasts and prays, but does not wear the niqab; rather, she wears long clothing that reaches the ankles and wears a headscarf that covers half of her face. Is this considered sufficient hijab? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
She must repent to Allah and veil herself completely, covering her entire face from non-mahram men. This is obligatory, as Allah the Exalted said: [Al-Ahzab:53]. Allah the Sublime says in Surat al-Ahzab: [Al-Ahzab:53]. And He the Sublime says in Surat al-Nur: [An-Nur:31], the verse. The face is the greatest of adornments, yes.
The presenter : May Allah bless you.

Answer:
She must repent to Allah and veil herself completely, covering her entire face from non-mahram men. This is obligatory, as Allah the Exalted said:
And when you ask [his wives] for something, ask them from behind a partition
وَإِذَا سَأَلْتُمُوهُنَّ مَتَاعًا فَاسْأَلُوهُنَّ مِنْ وَرَاءِ حِجَابٍAnd when you ask [his wives] for something, ask them from behind a partition. That is purer for your hearts and their hearts.
وَإِذَا سَأَلْتُمُوهُنَّ مَتَاعًا فَاسْأَلُوهُنَّ مِنْ وَرَاءِ حِجَابٍ ذَلِكُمْ أَطْهَرُ لِقُلُوبِكُمْ وَقُلُوبِهِنَّnot expose their adornment except to their husbands, their fathers
وَلا يُبْدِينَ زِينَتَهُنَّ إِلَّا لِبُعُولَتِهِنَّ أَوْ آبَائِهِنَّThe presenter : May Allah bless you.
