Clarification: I do not consider the Shaykh's position to be ''batil'' or anything like that. Masha'Allah, the Shaykh is blessed and we, laymen, need to learn from him, insha'Allah.

He had some good reasons which are going to be, obviously, not the same for every woman. One of the reasons of it being a resemblance to the Deobandis and Wahhabis was unfair.

For instance, a certain community in USA might be known for harassing Muslimah's that adorn the Niqab, a lot, hence a scholar may choose to give the fatwa that she can wear Hijab.
