Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the advice regarding the excessive display of adornment by many women when they go to the Eid prayer?

Answer:
This is not permissible; this is wrong. They must be prevented from doing it. They should not apply perfume, not adorn themselves, and not uncover themselves or display anything. They should go out as *kafilat* (unadorned women), as mentioned in the hadith. *Kafilat* means not adorned and not perfumed. Because this is a trial (fitnah). She went out not seeking the reward, but seeking the trial. We ask Allah for safety. To seek the reward, she should be humble, cover herself, and adhere to modesty. Yes.
