where are the deobandi's to defend these attacks against teh niqaab?

"3.2. The obligation of covering the face

While the madhhab has not completely forbidden a male’s gaze towards a female’s face when there exists absolutely no fear of attraction, the woman has no way of knowing whether the gazes directed towards her are free of desire or not, especially when out in public. The Hanafi madhhab has, in accordance with the Qur’an and Sunnah, thus obliged a woman to cover her face in front of strangers.[30]

This ruling is indicated to by Imam Muhammad in his Al-Asl,[31] which forms the basis of the Zahir al-Riwayah of the madhhab. This is the authoritative position of the Hanafi School, as adopted by major Hanafi legal masters over the centuries, such as: Abu Mansur al-Maturidi (d. 333 AH),[32] Hakim al-Shahid (d. 334 AH),[33] Jassas al-Razi (d. 370 AH),[34] Al-Natifi (d. 446 AH),[35] Qadi Khan (d. 592 AH),[36] Al-Marghinani — author of Al-Hidayah (d. 593 AH),[37] Al-Kirmani (d. 600 AH approx.),[38] Mahmud Al-Bukhari — author of al-Muhit (d. 616 AH),[39] Al-Sunnami (d. after 700 AH),[40] Al-Sighnaqi (d. 714 AH),[41] Al-Qurashi (d. 854 AH),[42] Ibn al-Humam (d. 861 AH),[43] Al-Quhustani (d. 950 AH),[44] Ibn Nujaym (d. 970 AH),[45] Sinan al-Khalwati (d. 989 AH),[46] Umar ibn Nujaym (d. 1005 AH),[47] Mulla ‘Ali al-Qari (d. 1014 AH),[48] Al-Shurunbulali (d. 1069 AH),[49] Shaykh Zada (d. 1078 AH),[50] ‘Abd al-Halim (d. 1088 AH),[51] Al-Haskafi (d. 1088 AH),[52] Al-Tahtawi (d. 1231 AH),[53] Ibn ‘Abidin (d. 1252 AH),[54] ‘Abid al-Sindhi (d. 1257 AH),[55] ‘Abd al-Hay al-Laknawi (d. 1304 AH),[56] Al-Sawati (d. 1346 AH),[57] Al-Nahlawi (d. 1350 AH).[58]

4. Conclusion

We can thus conclude that it is obligatory on a man to lower his gaze from the face of strange women under all circumstances, just as it is binding on a woman to cover her face in the presence of strange men.

Allah Most High knows best.

قال إمام الحرمين الجويني (ت 478 هـ): اتفق المسلمون على منع النساء من الخروج سافرات الوجوه

Imam al-Haramayn (d. 478 AH) said:
“There exists consensus of the Muslims on preventing women from emerging with their faces uncovered.”
