Answered by Ustadh Tabraze Azam
Question: Assalamu alaykum. I wear a face veil (niqaab). I have a second meeting with a potential for marriage. Am I allowed to reveal my face for the second time?
JazakAllahu khayr.
Answer: Wa alaikum assalam wa rahmatullah,
Yes, you should remove your face veil if the prospective spouse is still undecided about whether or not he would like to proceed with the marriage. If you have come to a mutual agreement to marry, then you should avoid unnecessary meetings and discussion which can be reasonably fulfilled by others or in other ways.
