Women Head Covering In Prayers
My apologies for the confusion. I agree with ghamidi sab. its Mustahab(Preferrable) & Compulsory for adult women to cover their head during prayers especially when its a mixed gathering with male worshippers in a mosque. however its Mustahab & optional(but not compulsory) in a female only gathering at home or in mosque or prayer room. Depending upon the context the Hukam varies. The Prophet was instructing women who offered prayer in the mosque with male worshippers in a mix gathering( Ba Jamaat Namaz). so its logical that he would advice women to cover their heads in such gathering for decency & protecting women’s dignity from Lustful male gaze… 🙂
