What is your opinion on placing employees at the gates of the Haram to prevent women who display their adornment?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The questioner says: I have a suggestion. If the Commission for Promoting Virtue and Prohibiting Vice were to place one of its employees at every gate of the Haram, or if the gatekeepers were tasked with it, so that they prevent women who are immodest and display their adornment from entering the Haram in the best manner, and inform them of the ruling on that, and do not allow entry except to those who wear the hijab, that would be better and more upright.
The Shaykh : We agree with this suggestion and consider it good and upright. I heard a man addressing the officials here after the Maghrib prayer, saying that they have placed those who are capable, but the breach is wider than the patch, and the matter escapes our hands due to the large number of people. In any case, this suggestion is good and fine, and if people are treated in the best manner, much good will result from it, if Allah wills.
