Question

Can a woman remove only her face veil to accompany her husband for medical advice (for her husband) to France. Note: wearing the veil is illegal in France.

Answer

What we have heard from the people that come from France is that the veil is allowed. You do not need to panic unnecessarily.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
