Question:
Honorable Shaykh, what are the limits of a woman's 'awrah in front of her mahrams?
Answer:
Her entire body is 'awrah, except for the face, the two hands, the head, and the two feet. The rest is all 'awrah. What about the chest? She shows her breasts, she shows her neck in front of her mahrams, she shows her chest in front of her mahrams. Who said this? Who is asking? Her entire body is 'awrah, except for what is customary for the ends of her body, namely her face, her hands, and her feet. There is no harm in her removing the covering from her head; there is no prohibition in front of her mahrams. Yes.
