Question:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Salaam.
\n1. Is it permissible to stitch the 2 ends of the Izar of Ihram when going for Umrah?
\n2. A woman who normally wears Burqa goes into Ihram, Is it better for her to uncover her face or wear a Burqa that does not touch her face?<\/p>\n

Answer:<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.<\/strong><\/p>\n

As-sal\u0101mu \u2018alaykum wa-rahmatull\u0101hi wa-barak\u0101tuh.<\/strong><\/p>\n

1- Sewing the Izaar (loin) in the middle should be avoided, instead a pin may be used. A money belt or similar may be used around the waist to hold the Izaar in place.<\/p>\n

2- In principle,\u00a0leaving the face uncovered is part of the woman\u2019s Ihraam.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 However, in these times of corruption and evil, the Fuqahaa (scholars) have advised that a woman in Ihraam must cover her face in such a way that the covering cloth (Niqaab or Burqa) does not touch the face.\u00a0This can be done by wearing a cap to keep the niqaab away from the face.\u00a0\u00a0If however the niqaab does end up touching the face for a short time, then charity equivalent to the amount of Sadaqatul Fitr should be given.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

And Allah Ta\u2019\u0101la Knows Best<\/strong><\/p>\n
