Reciting Durood Sharif without wearing a scarf

Question:-

Is it permissible for a female to recite Durood Sharif and make Zikr without wearing a headscarf?

Answer:-

Yes, it will be fundamentally permissible for her to recite Durood Sharif, or engage in Zikrullah, without the scarf on the head. Our ruling refers to a woman that doesn’t wear her scarf within the confines of her home, whilst doing her household work in the presence of her Mahram males. However, it is best that she dons the scarf in the home as well.
