The Ruling on Removing the Niqab After Wearing It

Question
Is a woman who used to wear the niqab and then removed it considered sinful?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: Wearing the niqab is recommended, so a woman is not sinful for removing it unless her uncovering of her face is a temptation, and God knows best.
