The answer

The preponderant opinion with us is the obligation for a woman to cover her face from non- men. Some cases are exempted from this, including: looking at her for testimony, or for a transaction such as buying or renting, or a doctor's examination out of necessity, or a suitor's gaze when intending marriage, or if she is an old woman who is not desired. If a woman needs employment and is required to submit her personal photograph, we hope there is no harm in her doing so.
