Question

Q. What is shariath ruling on covering female hair? When they at home can they keep it uncovered?

Answer

A female’s hair is part of her Aurah (Satr) which should be concealed in the presence of non-Mahram males or when she is out of her home.

She may leave her hair exposed within her home as long as no non-Mahram males are present.

And Allah Knows Best
