Shi'a Fatwa: It is Allowed for an Adult Muslim Woman to Pray Bareheaded استغفر الله


The following are narrations from the book Wasa'il ash-Shi'ah (highly regarded by the Twelver Shi'ite sect) in which are narrations that permit a free adult Muslim woman to offer Salat bareheaded!

وعنه ، عن أحمد بن محمّد ، عن محمّد بن عبدالله الأنصاري ، عن صفوان بن
 
يحيى ، عن عبدالله بن بكير ، عن أبي عبدالله ( عليه السلام ) قال : لا
 
بأس بالمرأة المسلمة الحرّة أن تصلّي وهي مكشوفة الرأس
 
 
 

Translation: “And from him from Ahmad b. Muhammad from Muhammad b. `Abdullah al-Ansari from Safwan b. Yahya from `Abdullah b. Bukayr from Abu `Abdillah (AS). He said: There is no harm with the free Muslim woman praying while her head is uncovered."




وعنه ، عن أبي علي بن محمّد بن عبدالله بن أبي أيوب ، عن علي بن أسباط ، عن
 
عبدالله بن بكير ، عن أبي عبدالله ( عليه السلام ) قال : لا بأس أن تصلّي
 
المرأة المسلمة وليس على رأسها قناع .




Translation: “And from him from Abu `Ali b. Muhammad b. `Abdullah b. Abi Ayyub from `Ali b. Asbat from `Abdullah b. Bukayr from Abu `Abdillah (AS). He said: There is no harm with the Muslim woman praying while she does not have a veil (qina) upon her head."
