"to walk and to ride." It is also presented there, but it does not include the veiling or fasting mentioned in Abū Yaʿlá’s narration.

There is abundant evidence for this from the Qurʾān, sunnah, and the traditions of the predecessors, as I explained in my book "Jilbāb al-Marʾah al-Muslimah," which has been printed several times. I further clarified this in my response to some Najdī scholars who claimed that the khimār also covers the face, in the comprehensive introduction to the new edition of my aforementioned book, published by al-Maktabah al-Islāmiyyah / Amman.
