It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Musa al-Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Luqman (the Wise), while advising his son, said: O my dear son! Beware of muffling your face with a veil (whether out of arrogance or for any other reason), for at night it is a cause of alarm to others (because of its frightening appearance), and by day it is a cause of disgrace." This text is a supporting narration (shahid) and its chain is sahih (authentic), and Allah knows best.
