Question
If a woman has to perform Salaat in a public place such as Musjidul Haraam, will it be permissible for her to don her Niqaab?
Answer
Normally it is not permissible for a woman to cover her face whilst performing Salaat in privacy. However, if there are ghair mahram males present, then it is necessary that she covers her face even whilst performing Salaat.
