If a woman wants to wear niqab (face veil) but her husband dislikes it, what should they do? Submitted by on Tue, 20/10/2009 - 16:59
The Answer
Dear Brother / Sister,
Wearing the niqab (face veil) is not fard (obligatory). Thus if the husband dislikes it and that leads to a big conflict between couples then she may not wear it. Because wearing niqab is not fard (obligatory) like wearing a head scarf.
