Women's Benefits

For those in countries of disbelief like Britain, I advise my brothers to treat people with gentleness, especially non-Arabs and others who may lack knowledge. One should be patient with them, hoping that Allah, the Exalted, will guide them through that patience. Particularly in such matters where suspicions may lead a woman to cover her face, advice is needed, and one must work to remove such doubts from them.…

Question: وعليكم السلام ورحمة الله وبركاته We kindly request your advice regarding women's gatherings here in Britain. Some of the sisters who attend these gatherings prefer to keep their niqāb on, despite the fact that the venue is designated exclusively for women and there is no legitimate Islamic need for covering the face. When asked about the reason, they respond that it is part of their customs. What is your…

Covering One's Face in the Presence of Other Women Without Need is Excessiveness Question: Is it permissible for a woman to cover her face while praying in the presence of other women? And is her sitting with other women while covering her face considered an act of excessiveness? Sheikh Uthaymeen raḥimahullāh: Yes, it is considered excessive, and she should not cover her face while praying.

Face Coverings Raise Suspicion Question: May Allāh reward you. The questioner asks: What is the ruling on covering the face (talathum) during prayer? Sheikh Uthaymeen raḥimahullāh: Covering the face (talathum) during prayer is disliked (makruh). Talathum refers to a person placing a covering (e.g., ghutra or scarf) over their nose and mouth. This is disliked, and in fact, a person should avoid doing so even…

"There is no need for this (i.e., covering the face) if there are no men around her, as this resembles talathum (covering the mouth and nose), which is prohibited during prayer. However, if there are men present around her, then there is no harm in covering the face. Nevertheless, when she prostrates, she should uncover her forehead and nose so that they come into direct contact with the place of prostration.

Ruling on a Woman Wearing the Niqab During Prayer in the Presence of Women Only Question: What is the ruling on a woman wearing the face veil during prayer in the women's prayer area, when in the presence of women only? Sheikh ’Abdulkareem Al-Khudhair ḥafidhahullāh: "A woman’s entire body is considered ‘awrah (must be covered) during prayer, except for the face. This applies even if she is praying alone; she must…

➡️To the Hosts of Sisters-Only Events: As the organisers, you absolutely have the right to set a 'no-niqab' policy for your event. However, if you choose to implement this, it's important to do so with care, wisdom, and consideration. Here are a few suggestions: Be gentle in your approach: A polite, respectful reminder at the door can go a long way. If a sister seems hesitant, speak to her with kindness — she may…

Sheikh Muhammad Al-’Ansi ḥafidhahullāh said: "In the name of Allāh, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. The advice to these noble sisters — may Allāh grant them success in all goodness — for their diligence and modesty, is as follows: A woman keeping her face veil on in the company of other women, where there are no non-mahram men present, serves no benefit and is not part of the religion of Allāh, the…

People like him are a threat to our security, especially in enclosed places. For all we know, we could be sitting amongst men dressed like this in masaajids, gatherings and conferences and not even know it! The British government has allowed these cross dressers to use public female toilets and changing rooms; so they are now conditioned to think they can roam any female environment they wish. In these times, it…

He said ḥafidhahullāh: "What is preferable, when women are among themselves and there is no fear of fitnah in terms of tasweer and so on, is that a woman should uncover her face so that her sisters may recognise her, feel at ease with her, and to prevent any infiltration."

Wearing the Niqab Among Women and in the Presence of Mahram Men QUESTION: السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته In some cultures, it is customary for women to cover their faces even in the presence of their own mahrams. Sheikh Ahmad Al-’Umari ḥafidhahullāh: وعليكم السلام ورحمة الله وبركاته This custom — whereby a woman covers her face in the presence of some of her mahrams — exists in certain regions of Yemen,…

اللسان سيف إن لم تكن حارسه قطعك The tongue is a sword; if you do not guard it, it will cut you Explanation: - This proverb emphasises the power of speech and the importance of caution when speaking. Just as a sword can harm if mishandled, careless words can lead to regret or harm. Alternative: الكلمة مثل السهم إذا خرجت لا ترجع A word is like an arrow – once released, it does not return. Both proverbs…

Just a quick reminder to myself and to my brothers and sisters – let’s keep checking our intentions in everything we do, especially when it comes to teaching. If we want this knowledge to really count as ṣadaqah jāriyah, then let’s not just teach for the sake of Allāh, but also try to make it easy for others to access. Many of us recieved this knowledge for free – so let's pass it down for free. Furthermore, the…

Abu Huraira (Allāh be pleased with him) reported Allāh's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: ((إِذَا مَاتَ الإِنْسَانُ انْقَطَعَ عَنْهُ عَمَلُهُ إِلاَّ مِنْ ثَلاَثَةٍ إِلاَّ مِنْ صَدَقَةٍ جَارِيَةٍ أَوْ عِلْمٍ يُنْتَفَعُ بِهِ أَوْ وَلَدٍ صَالِحٍ يَدْعُو لَهُ)).‏ "When a man dies, his acts come to an end, but three, recurring charity, or knowledge (by which people) benefit, or a pious son, who prays for him (for the…

To prevent these type of "niqabis" from sneaking in

أُكلتُ يوم أُكِلَ الثور الأبيض I was eaten the day the white bull was eaten Background Story: There were three bulls — one white, one red, and one black — living together in peace. A lion wanted to eat them, but he couldn't fight all three at once. So, the lion went to the red and black bulls and said: "Let me eat the white bull. He is different from you. If you let me eat him, I won’t hurt you." They agreed, and…
