Question:
What is shariath ruling on covering female hair? When they at home can they keep it uncovered?
Answer:
A female’s hair is part of her Aurah (Satr) which should be concealed in the presence of non-Mahram males or when she is out of her home.
She may leave her hair exposed within her home as long as no non-Mahram males are present.
