Bismillah:
They didn’t have anything against those who uncover the face and hands, but they said their opinion of understanding the Qur’anic verse concerning Hijab, however, the majority of scholars agreed that the face and hands are not necessarily to be covered, but if the women wish to cover those parts too, there is no harm.
Once point to be noted here is that during Tawaf (Circumambulation around the Ka’ba during Hajj or Umrah), women are not allowed to cover their face.
and God knows best.
Salam
Wael.
