Removing
the head covering
Question:
I have a skin disease on my head. The doctor told me to remove
the head covering that I wear on my head and that is truly
harming me at the present time. Do I have the right to do
that? What shall I do?
Response:
Yes, you have the right to remove your head covering from
your head if you are not in the presence of non-mahram men,
such as when you are with your husband, mahram men or women
only with no men present. However, when you go to the marketplace
or in the presence of non-mahram men, it is obligatory upon
you to cover your head and your face as well the rest of your
body.
