I saw a Hadith of Sahih Bukhari with the narration of Aisha RA where Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam used to offer 2 rakah Sunnah prayer after the Asr prayer, and he never used to miss it. Now he didn’t publicize it because he wanted to keep it easy for the believers. My question is, can we offer these 2 rakah after the Asr prayer???

I’m 13 from Germany and I want to wear Niqab but I know that my mothers views on it are that it is too extreme, it was hard for me to convince her to just buy me a jilbab and I said I just want it for Salah. I don’t know what to do.. I think that Niqab is mandatory but I really really don’t know how I should wear it, my friend said that for now I can just wear a mask but what about gloves?

ANSWER: You must be diplomatic in your approach and can wear it without telling her if this upsets her. Wearing the face mask is also another alternative when needed as long as it covers the face well from all sides.
