[quote]Salam sister Nida. My opinion and I stress my very limited and humble opinion on this matter is in agreement with Moiz Amjad as stated below

As a part of directive c and d, women have specifically been ordained to spread their head-coverings over their neck-lines and their chests so that they are adequately covered. Moreover, as a part of these directives, women are also directed to refrain from catching the attention of those present by the sounds of their bangles and similar other ornaments which they may be wearing on their feet.

Keeping the foregoing explanation in perspective, it is clear that the Qur'anic directive does not expressly direct women to cover their heads and faces. One may, however, be of the opinion that even though the Qur'anic directive as explained in point no. e above, does not expressly direct women to cover their heads, yet it clearly implies the covering of the head. Nevertheless, on the other hand, one may be of the opinion that the referred directive of the Qur'an has only directed women to spread a cloth - which may be a part of their head-covers or a separate sheet of cloth - over their neck-lines and chests.

The two other issues are what are the norms of society and culture. Well for a muslim women in my opinion would clearly be to cover the head in a muslim country.

Secondly my personal preferance or choice. If I was a muslim women then what I know about the religion now , I would cover my head but not the face.I feel it gives dignity and respect to women.This is far more impressive then beauty.[/quote]
