The Ruling on Decorated Abayas
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Regarding decorated abayas, this is an important matter.
Answer:
It is not permissible for an abaya to be made for decoration or adornment. The abaya is taken for covering, and it should have no adornment or embroidery, because it is not clothing for adornment, but rather clothing for covering. The abaya is worn over the clothes; a woman wears it over her garments, like the jilbab. She places it on her head and covers her body with it when going out to the house. Yes.
