Is wearing a niqab that separates the eyes with a thread, without wearing makeup, considered a fitna?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
There is no objection to wearing the niqab if it does not lead to a religiously prohibited matter, such as being an adornment in itself that leads to temptation (fitna), or if it is worn for fame. In these cases, it is not permissible to wear it.
