If a school of thought different from the one i am following does not think it is necessery is that reason enough for me to say that its not really necessery for me either?

Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

The Quran and Hadith have commanded women to cover their faces due to fear of mischief. This is what Hanafis believe. If you are a Hanafi then it is unlawful for you to follow other Fiqhi schools.
