the head dress...

[PHOTOTAKER]

i have some questions about the head-dress or "niqab"???

how did this tradition start?

how necessary is it?

what place dose it have in your religious serves, or worship practice?

is there different ways to wear the head-dress to signify different things?

is there a time when wearing the head-dress is not appropriate?

I just wanted to note that the word "niqab" is only used when the woman cover her face.
So the issue of niqb is different from the issue of the "head dress"!
Maybe someone can give you more details about it.
