The Ruling on a Wife's Obedience to Her Husband in Wearing the Burqa

Question
A husband wants his wife to wear the niqab, but she does not wish to do so. What is the ruling on her action?
Answer
I say, and with God's guidance: If her husband desires that, she should respond to him; because it is a protection and covering for her, and it is further away from temptation, especially if the woman is beautiful, and God knows best.
