Female student in niqaab looking at her shaikh when conversing with him
Question
Is it permissible for a female student (in niqaab) to look at her shaikh when conversing with him?
Answer
Like it is incorrect for a male to look at a female, it is also incorrect for a female to look at a male.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
