The Description of the Lawful Garment for Women

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good. What is the lawful garment for a woman?

Answer:
The lawful garment for a woman is what covers her. It must cover her completely from the gaze of men, covering her entire body, including her face, hands, feet, and the rest of her body. It must also be of the kind that is customary for the women of the country to wear. It must also have no adornment in it; it should be an ordinary garment with no adornment and one that does not attract attention. Likewise, it must be loose and not tight in a way that reveals the curves of her body or her limbs. This is what...
It must also be opaque, not transparent such that the color of the skin or the color of the flesh is seen through it. These conditions are necessary.
