Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This is a woman asking, and she says: What is the ruling on a woman wearing a shoulder 'abayah?
Answer:
The 'abayah is not for the shoulder; it is for the head. You place it on the head down to the feet when going out. You do not leave it on your shoulders, and that does not provide proper covering. Yes.
