If the face is the focus of temptation and desire....who's focus, temptation and desire are we speaking about? The woman who covers her face, or the man that looks upon her face?
"In these present times where immorality and sin is widespread, a muslimah will be safe from sin covering her face."
Who's immorality and sin is widespread? And who's sin will the muslimah be safe from?
Suhail, what I'm getting from your post is:
Since we men cannot control our temptation, desires and since we cannot lower our gaze as the qur'an states. Because of this, the muslim male's immorality and sin are widespread so to assist the muslim man in controlling his passions, muslim women should cover their faces.
Is this correct?
