Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A woman says that what are called Moroccan baths for skin cleansing have become widespread, and a woman sits in them, and half of her body is exposed. Is this permissible?
Answer:
I do not know about them. If they are regulated with covering and modesty, and isolated from men, and there is a benefit in them, then they are not forbidden. But for a woman to go out of her house and go to these baths, where there may be gatherings or mixing between men and women, there are dangers. There are dangers. A woman can bathe in her house, and praise be to Allah, she is covered and comfortable in her house. If she wants to warm up, she warms up with the heater or on the stove. Why does she go to the baths? Yes.
