Q: I have been coming back to Islam since Ramadan alhamdulillah. Before Ramadan I practiced Western version of Sunni Islam by dress and behavior. Since then I'm feeling pull towards salafi methodology. 

I've begun being mentored by a kind salafi woman MashaAllah. 

She says a woman should cover with niqab and gloves any time her husband is not home, even if she's not being seen by non mahram. She said it's an act of worship and a way to show and ask Allah Ta'ala for extra protection while my husband (protector) is not home. 

Is there Islamic basis for this, is this from culture, or from her specifically? 

Q: If someone’s moustache is that much big that it covers his upper lip, is it makrooh e tanzeehi or makrooh e tahreemi?
