“In the days that followed, many also appeared in veils. Alhamdulillah, there was no problem. This incident of miscommunication is a common lesson for all of us,” he said.
Palid explained that the policy of removing the veil was to watch the movements of the participants’ lips as they read the Quran. This is in anticipation of fraud on the MTQ.
“However, the actual performance does not need to look at the movement of the lips. So in North Sumatra there are adjustments and there is no prohibition of wearing the veil to present with a prior examination,” he explained.
