The answer

The answer summarizes the ruling on women wearing the shemagh in two situations: First, if it is worn on the head in the manner of men, then it is impermissible due to its resemblance to men, which the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, cursed the one who does it. Second, if it is worn in a manner that does not resemble men (such as placing it around the neck in a women's gathering), then it is permissible as long as there is no other prohibition involved, such as displaying adornment.
