Covering the Head for Qur’an

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Qibla.com

Answered by Shaykh Faraz Rabbani

Is it necessary (for women) to cover the head when reciting or listening to Qur’an recitation? What are the rulings for this?

Answer:
In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Walaikum assalam,

It is better to do this, but not obligatory (Unless, of course, one is in the presence of men who are not immediate family, but that goes without saying…)

Wassalam,
Faraz
