What Zara usually wears, the head scarf is called hijab. Hijab is not same as burka. It is just the head covering. Abaya is long loose clothing. Its like a long dress which covers the hands, legs but not the head.

Niqab is like burka but the eyes are shown. Like the ones Ruksar and Zara are wearing in Kashmir but in burka even eyes are covered. I hope that clears it.😳

@ bold 😆 even I didn't know them until recently. The misconception about Burka is very common.

I really don't have the exact idea on why they wear it. Its something to do with saving themselves from men's gaze and its recommended. For some its culture, for some compulsion and for some their own choice. They don't wear it inside the house, they usually wear it outside or in front of non mehrams ie strangers.

He said Pakizah which means pure. He was saying that he finds girls wearing burka pure since they are like covered and away from the bad eyes of the men.

there is a Quranic verse which instructs for believing men to lower their gaze and guard their modesty and believing women to lower their gaze and guard their modesty'

so to answer your question, yes men are also instructed to cover themselves
