Niqab

The niqab is a type of covering worn by some Muslim women that conceals the face, leaving only the eyes visible. It is a form of cultural and religious expression, often worn as part of modesty practices in Islam. The niqab typically covers the entire face except for the eyes, and may be paired with a loose garment called an abaya or cloak. Its use varies across different communities and personal beliefs, reflecting individual interpretations of modesty rather than a universally mandated practice in Islam.
