Of course it would be allowed. . .if it didn’t cover the face.
Quick question, what is an “Abaya” then?
Thanks.
The burqa is the body bag, minus the face bag, but with a hood attached in place of separate hijab...and usually worn with the face bag as an accessory.
The abaya is sort of like a caftan.
Abayas are worn in Arabia, while burqas are worn in Central Asia. Kaftan is Turkish, gondora is Morrocan. It’s all roughly the same garment, sometimes a gown on its own, other times a covering to be removed in private. Regional/cultural variations on head and face covering.
