The Etiquette of Women in Prayer

Hadith #1086

1086 - قَالَ وَ سَأَلْتُهُ: عَنِ اَلْأَمَةِ إِذَا وَلَدَتْ عَلَيْهَا اَلْخِمَارُ قَالَ «لَوْ كَانَ عَلَيْهَا لَكَانَ عَلَيْهَا إِذَا هِيَ حَاضَتْ وَ لَيْسَ عَلَيْهَا اَلتَّقَنُّعُ فِي اَلصَّلاَةِ.

Hadith.1086 - I asked him about a slave woman (amā) who gave birth, and whether the headcover (khimar) would be required for her. Imam said: "If it were required for her, She would have to wear it when She menstruates, but there is no requirement for her to wear a headcover in prayer."
