The ruling on a woman covering her face in prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q188: The questioner says: I read in books of Islamic jurisprudence that a woman’s entire body is an awrah (the part of the body that must be covered) except her face in prayer. What is the wisdom behind not covering the face in prayer?
A188: The wisdom is that it is not an awrah in prayer, unless there are men present who are not mahram (a relative one may not marry). In that case, she covers it in prayer and in other situations.
