Should she give them a copy of her ID even though she wears niqaab?

Question: 91907

I am studying public speaking and da’wah, and they have asked me for a copy of my national ID. I started to study and until now I have not given them the copy because I wear niqaab and I do not want the one who is in charge of collecting papers and the professor who teaches us to see my face. My question is: Is there any sin in handing it in?.

Answer

Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.

If this study will benefit you and your society, and will increase you in knowledge and help you to do good deeds and call people to Islam, then we hope that there will be no sin in your giving those who are in charge of the study a copy of your national ID. So long as they want a copy of the ID and not the original, you can darken the picture with something so that it will not show the features clearly. 

We ask Allaah to guide you and make you steadfast. 

And Allaah knows best.
