Woman performing salaah with her purdah on
Question
Is it permissible for a woman to read salaah with her purdah on?
Answer
If a woman is performing salaah in the confines and privacy of her home, then she should keep her face open while performing salaah. Unnecessarily, a woman should not perform salaah in a public area or in the presence of non mahrams as this will invade her privacy.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
