The Islamic requirement is that the women cloth should:
- be covering the whole body, including head and hair and neck, except face and hands,
- not be so tight to describe the woman body and sensitive woman parts, and
- not be transparent to show up the body underneath or to show up the under cloth.
No requirement, per Islam, for women to cover the face and/or hands, or forehead.
The piece of the cloth that covers the head and hair (but not face) is called Hijab or head scarf or veil (not covering face).
There is no restriction on the women cloth material or colors. The women cloth could be from silk or any other material. It could be colorful or not. It could be dark colored, white colored, different colors whatever. It could be one piece cloth or more than one piece.
Wearing burka, or Burkaa or forehead cover (or sometimes called veil covering hair and face) is not religion requirement. It is due to local cultures or traditions. However, it is not forbidden by Islam.
The Islam requirement is for women to wear cloth covering the whole body, including head and hair, except face and hands. The women cloth should be neither tight (describing the body) nor transparent (showing body or under cloth). The part of cloth covering the head and hair (but not the face) is called Hijab and this is mandatory per religion. This hijab may be called veil (that is not covering face). Muslim women wear hijab or veils (headscarves not covering face) because Allah (God) commanded them to wear it in the Holy Qur'an. Wearing a hijab or veil lets others know that a woman is religious, respectable, and must not be molested.
Updated AnswerWearing burkas (or face cover) is neither compulsory nor rejected by religion. It is merely a matter of local cultures and traditions. The religion requirement for women clothing is to cover whole body, including hair and head, except face and hands that they remain uncovered. The clothing should be neither tight (to figure her body) nor transparent (to reveal what is underneath).
