Is it permissible for a woman to perform the prostration of recitation (sajdat al-tilawah) without covering her head?

For women, performing the prostration of recitation (Sujud (definition) al-Tilawah) without head covering is not permissible according to the majority of scholars. This is because it is considered a prayer, and thus requires covering the 'awrah (private parts), which is a more cautious approach and absolves one of responsibility. However, some jurists permit it, as they do not stipulate the conditions of prayer for it. Nevertheless, the first opinion is more preferable.
