Question

Is it permissible for a wife to take off her hijab if her husband disapproves of it?

Answer


Walaikum assalam wa rahmatullah,

Absolutely not.

The Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and give him peace) said, “There is no obedience to creation in disobedience to the Creator.”[Bukhari and Muslim]

Wassalam.
